Hyundai Motor America has introduced ‘Vision G’ Concept Coupe, marked with a long hood and high-beltline, at Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) in the US.
Hyundai's president and chief design officer Peter Schreyer said: "The concept was designed with coordinated input from Hyundai design studios around the world, but was led by our team here in the US.
"The design is our interpretation of the idea that Hyundai breathes into all of its vehicles - a DNA that balances design and performance with the idea that you don't need to be over the top in terms of glitz and stereotypical luxury cues."
The design is stated to be based on the notion of 'chivalry.
The vehicle also displays a technology capable of opening the door automatically as if it had been opened by a valet.
Hyundai's US design center head and leader of the coupe's design team Christopher Chapman said: "In keeping with a design that speaks to the owner rather than 'the spectators' who might see the car on the road, Vision G appears dynamic and in constant motion.
"After all - and if all is right in the world - the only time an owner sees the exterior of the car is when it's standing still."
Vision G is powered by 5.0-liter Tau V8 engine generating 420 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 383lbft of torque at 5,000rpm. The Tau V8 engine family has been named to Ward's prestigious Ten Best Engines list three times.
