Hyundai Velocity Concept Debuts at SEMA [VIDEO]
Hyundai Velocity Concept is a vehicle which is to proudly debut at 2012 SEMA show. Originally the car is a Veloster sport coupe, but being a tuning it adds more aggressiveness and exceptional design language.
This Hyundai runs on 19 x 9.0 inch, HRE lightweight satin-charcoal racing wheels. In addition, the special car is fitted with tarmac-scraping lower body kit with generous front and rear brake cooling ducts, lift-reducing rear diffuser, oversized rear wing, and number one racecar design graphic.
The concept keeps the original silhouette of the Veloster, however adding a note on exponential performance gains and functional design cues. Furthermore, the 1.6-liter, direct-injected engine underwent some transformations thanks to Cosworth, including performance pistons, rods, turbocharger, intercooler, intake manifold, intake-charging design, fuel system and engine management.
All this results in more than 400 horsepower (295 kW) and 350 lb.-ft. (475 Nm) of torque. In addition, Velocity's suspension and braking modifications handle the acceleration capabilities under hood, with Brembo® 4-piston calipers and two-piece rotors, Bilstein® springs with monotube dampers, and Kumho Ecsta SPT 275/35R19 high performance summer tires.
