Hyundai - it actually exists

marcus · 05-25-2009, 04:22 PM

hyundai is a car replicator.. they replicate a whole lot of branded cars.. just cant say anything bout the engine theyre using..

eTiMaGo · 05-25-2009, 04:25 PM

??? maybe 15 years ago when they used a lot of Mitsubishi engineering yes, but now it's all pretty much in-house?

I think you need to look a little more to the west, that gigantic country called China, if you wanna talk abot car replicators...

marcus · 05-25-2009, 04:28 PM

true that!

Kioshi · 05-25-2009, 04:51 PM

I read in my latest Motortrend that the Genesis 4 cylinder engine is basically the same engine that the Mitsubishi Evolution has just detuned, Mitsubishis 2.0 is a world engine or something.

NJBob · 05-26-2009, 07:08 AM

That Genesis is just a Tiburon with a new handle.

Nice car though.

It's a GEMA engine so it's part of the partnership between Chrysler/Mitsubishi/Hyundai. In the program all three companies use the same basic engine blocks (1.8L 2.0L 2.4L) and then build the top end to meet their needs. While all 3 spent the same amount of money on the program the original engine block was built and designed by Hyundai. So it's not taken from the Evo and its not detuned, it's only similarity is the block which Hyundai designed anyway.

GEMA engines are in:
Genesis
SRT-4
Evo
and many lesser cars

Here's the shootout between Genesis and Camaro...

IF you want to really face off a good setup.

Ever since the Genesis has been produced, it has started every car maker in a scamper to try and do a compact/mid size RWD coupe.

Nissan is in talks to RE DO the 240SX, not sure if they will just go with a 2.4L or if they will opt for a new name, but I am sure they will try and do something with the Altima platform to make it RWD, or offer a "350Z" platform car with a 2.4L 4cyl engine instead, maybe a 2.0L Turbo... who knows?

Toyota/Subaru had been found out from the get go on their concept and production of a working car for both companies. Toyota is to recieve a RWD 2.5L Boxter engine-d coupe, that is said to have anywhere from 200HP maybe more?!?... Or even offer a similar motor that is in the WRX. All we do know is that Subaru wont allow the Toyota version to be AWD, due to direct competition... All I now is, it could be the sexiest sounding Toyota ever produced! Expect if the car hits showrooms to be called the Celica once more! Finally!!!

Scion, even though its still Toyota, the Scion TC is an ancient beast at this leg in the race. Can we see something come off the Toyo/Subaru RWD coupe? I doubt it, but its possible. With the Scion brand being so popular in the US/CAN, it could still be possible that the "Celica" remake could be cross branded or even just branded as a Scion TC to replace the older model!? Only time will tell once the concepts are made and production dates are finally set in stone... All I can say, you saw what happened with the new Scion IQ.

Kia Yes...Kia, that same simple car company that just seems to press out crap after crap car, they are serious about a Coupe that can keep up with the big boys! Most I can find is pics, some info about motors (2.0L Turbo) with a guess around 230-250HP, name is just gonna be called the KOUP. Expect it to be around next year sometime summer-ish. Just dont expect it to be RWD, a FWD platform is prolly gonna be the setup for this concept.

Honda, well since Honda scrapped all plans for the S3000...could this be a hoax? Or could it just be the fly under the radar approach that Honda needs to try and make something better if the Genesis has no other contender. Dont count Honda out in this fight...I dont see them becoming like Toyota and focusing on the "people's car" approach, they still have the ability and know-how to make a badass RWD sportscar.

Its going to be a fun year coming up for the automotive community, we lost alot of good cars with the whole world economy going to crap, but it kinda opened some doors for new and worthy contenders. Hopefully this will only be the start of once more the compact sportscar wars. P
