Hyundai's surprise - or not so much of a surprise, given the key execs on hand - for the
SEMA show going on in Las Vegas this week was the release of these sketches of the coupe version of its Genesis concept.
The new two-door will be shown in concept form at the Los Angeles auto show, which opens to the press on Nov. 14.
The
Genesis concept bowed in sedan form at the 2007 New York auto show. The new two-door version will be a rear-driver like the four-door version. Hyundai calls these "exaggerated" sketches of what will be a future rear-drive sports coupe from the South Korean automaker.
We're not sure if
Hyundai will carry over the Tiburon name to the
Genesis - or if Hyundai's global plan for alphanumeric names will apply to U.S. cars - but we do know that this car will first arrive in Asia in late 2008 or 2009, and arrive here in the States for the 2010 model year. A convertible version will follow.Based on the BH/Genesis platform, the new coupe is expected to offer an optional 4.6-liter V-8 as a performance option.
