Hyundai is at it again, choosing to challenge the establishment with their well designed cars that make the Germans look dull.
Last month, the Koreans showed a concept saloon at the Detroit Auto Show, one which has more than a passing resemblance to this prototype for the next Genesis mid-size.

Hiding under that camouflage is a jewel-like headlights Four clusters are arranged in an L shape and countered by a halo at the bottom. We can also see that the grille design is very Audi-like, as tall as the wront end, stretching from bonnet to lower sill.

The engine range for the Genesis will likely start with a longitudinal application of the 2-liter turbo found in the Sonata. More interesting is the 10-speed automatic transmission expected to debut in the car, and the V6.


The launch date of the next Genesis would have remained a mystery were it not for statement made by Hyundai Motor Company CEO Kim Choon-ho, who said it come towards the end of 2013, and should come with a host of new features. This can mean that it will be shown in Korea, or that it will show at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show or 2014 Detroit Auto Show.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s.
