Concept cars
GENUS
In February 2006 patrons at the
Geneva Motor Show got their first
glimpse at the Hyundai Genus concept
vehicle.
Described as a coupe-wagon crossover,
the Genus combines the sporting
dynamism of a coupe with the versatility
of a traditional wagon.
Created at the Hyundai Motor Europe
Technical Center, in Rüsselsheim,
Germany, the Genus was developed as a
D-segment vehicle with broad appeal to
many target groups. Thus, with its
multi-use concept, the Genus can be
used for work, extensive shopping
tours, family holidays as well as for
numerous free time activities.
A long wheelbase, reduced front and
rear overhangs and a wide stance
enable increased interior comfort and
loading capacity without compromising
the fundamental proportions inherent to
a coupe. For maximum versatility, the
floor features an integral hatch which
can be lifted to reveal a retractable
bench seat. The bench extends out to
rest over the trunk sill and together with
a sliding deck that is concealed in the
bumper, it forms a multi-use outside
seating area. The sliding deck can also
be used separately for transportation of
bicycles and other sports equipment.
TALUS
Unveiled in January 2006 at the North
American International Auto Show in
Detroit Michigan, Hyundai’s HCD-9
Talus offers a glimpse into the near
future of the sports coupe.
Unlike a traditional sporty coupe, Talus
can traverse steep driveways, potholes
or two-track access roads thanks to its
increased ground clearance. Talus also
offers the performance of optional 4WD
to assist in applying horsepower to the
pavement or for added confidence in
inclement weather. The increased ride
height also improves visibility, giving the
driver the ability to see and anticipate
the road ahead.
Talus includes interior room for four
adults, plus cargo space for that
impromptu weekend getaway. More
space, ease of access and the benefits
of a commanding ride height are unique
advantages Talus brings to the sports
car market.
A sophisticated 4.6-liter V8 engine,
mated to a 5-speed automatic trans-
mission, delivers power to fit the
demands of performance-oriented con-
sumers.
In addition, Talus is equipped with
next-generation technology including
Electronic Stability Control, Night Vision,
Shift-by-Wire Transmission, Wireless
Internet, Adaptive Cruise Control.
