(March 21, 2013) Hyundai today unveiled exterior renderings of the HND-9, its latest luxury sports coupe concept. The HND-9 represents an evolution of Hyundai’s fluidic sculpture design philosophy. The HND-9 will make its world debut March 28 at the 2013 Seoul Motor Show.  

The ninth concept model developed by Hyundai Motor Group’s R&D Center in Namyang, Korea, the HND-9 features sophisticated details in every design element, reinforcing a premium look.

In particular, the HND-9, with its dramatic long hood and wheelbase, is a modern reinterpretation of the elegant image of a classic premium sports coupe.

Fluidic yet sleek character lines that stretch from headlamp to trunk, voluminous, powerful car body and a striking, wide hexagonal-shaped radiator grille underscore the high performance image of the concept.

Butterfly doors, spiral-shaped lines connected to the headlamp, softly glistening  silver coating, dual twin exhaust and uniquely designed head and rear lamps give the car a sleek futuristic look.

As a rear-wheel drive, high-performance sports coupe concept, HND-9 is equipped with 3.3-liter turbo GDi gas engine and eight-speed automatic transmission, delivering maximum output of 365 horsepower.
