Hyundai Vision set to hit G-spot

A LUXURY executive saloon boasting a brutish 5.0-litre V8 is Hyundai’s view of its future as it unveiled the Hyundai Vision G Coupe Concept at this week’s Frankfurt Motor Show.

During the design process, a collaboration was made between Hyundai Motor creative teams in North America, Asia and Europe and one of its ‘tricks’ is an automatic door that acts like a valet.

A sense of the car’s performance capabilities is created by clever treatment of the concept’s exterior. The long hood, high-beltline and understated cabin present an appearance of tension, like a loaded slingshot.

The interior design ensures the driver is ensconced in a relaxing, non-glitzy environment, with luxury provided by the natural, warm wood and leather.

At the heart of Hyundai Vision G is the award-winning 5.0-litre Tau V8 engine, producing 420hp at 6,000rpm and 383 lb ft. of torque at 5,000rpm.

Vision G technologies include the central control panel ‘Remote Wheel’ a semi-sphere haptic touchpad installed in the centre console. It offers intuitive touch and gesture interaction and responds to a simple wave of the hand, minimising driver distraction.

Vision G is equipped with a curved display on its centre fascia, delivering information rich in detail. By removing all physical buttons, Vision G presents a simple and intuitive overall cabin ambience.

The driver’s preferred display content is freely interchangeable between cluster and centre fascia, helping them keep their eyes on the road.
