Remarkable. Hopefully they do bring a coupe variant into reality.
Who would have thought that Hyundai and Kia would be what Honda wishes it was just 2 years ago?

To me it looks like a nice car, but the days of Hyindai/Kia dominating the mainstream car market are long gone. Who's gonna want FWD coupe with sloppy handling once Geely Beauty Leopard comes out? I know right now Geely suffers from their reputation, but give them 2-3 years and they will be number 1!!!
To me Hyundai is the Geely of the mainstream cars.

Now,, if Hyundai had put this out as the Sonata,I really would not hate it as much as I do. This rendering from Kia is actually eye catching. I kinda like it. Will hold final judgement for in person viewing.
Och,, what in the world is that you posted. That thing is seriously hideous!!

Like Mayweather said, "some people are talented, but some people are gifted". Peter Schreyer is a gifted designer. I know this isn't real, but the sedan is real. He took boring old Kia to this masterpiece.
I'm in awe. Schreyer will be one of the most influential car designer within next 5-10 years.
Honda/Acura needs to hire gifted designer like Schreyer.
