SEMA: The Hyundai Solus is a 500-hp Genesis Coupe

Hyundai has actually associated with veteran partner ARK performance to create an extreme-looking Genesis Sports car that boasts a greatly changed drivetrain. Called Solus Genesis Coupe, the concept will be presented in November at the SEMA program that will take place in Sin city, Nevada.

The most considerable upgrades are located under the hood, where ARK has suited the Origin Sports car with an evolution of the stock model’s V6 engine that has been rubbed to 4.0 liters. The engine is additionally fitted with more powerful attaching poles, new pistons, a new crankshaft, coated headers, and high performance headgaskets, to name a few adjustments.

The 6 sends out over 500 horsepower– about 150 more than the Origin Coupe’s stock 3.8-liter factory– to the back wheels using a six-speed manual transmission. Performance requirements have actually not been released.

The additional power is matched by a complete aesthetic transformation.

The sports car also sits a great deal lower than stock thanks to extensive suspension adjustments.

Photos of the cockpit are being kept under wraps up until the SEMA show opens its doorways. ARK vows the Origin Coupe has actually been spruced up with a guiding wheel borrowed from the Sonata Sport, a redesigned control panel, a Rockford Fosgate sound system and also a brand new tool cluster.

Hyundai hasn’t already revealed exactly what the future holds for the Solus Genesis Sports car. Nevertheless, it deserves keeping in mind that the firm has actually shown extreme-looking models constructed with input from ARK at the past seven editions of the SEMA show as well as none of them have actually ever before made the leap from idea to manufacturing.

The Solus Genesis Coupe will discuss the limelight with a custom-built Tucson crossover that flaunts over 700 hp. Hyundai may have a few surprises in the store.
