2011 Detroit: Hyundai Curb Concept



Hyundai's California studio has received the mission to create a very bold concept, whose series version will be a fearsome opponent for Nissan Juke. Production version is already in development. Although is on the same segment with Japanese model, those from Hyundai called Curb's segment Urban Activity Vehicle (UAV).

In terms of style, the model has all the chances to kneel his rival mentioned above. For this concept, the Koreans have implemented on their creation a more advanced version of the
Fluidic Sculpture language style. Unfortunately, the production version of this concept will not be sprinkled with the same provocative lines that sticks your eyes on the screen. Although it's not 100% original, considering that the profile back takes me to the thought to Mercedes ML, does not bother me, I can say that I like it very much.

Hyundai Concept Curb hides under the hood a 1.6 liter engine capable to deliver 175 horsepower (130 kw/177 PS) and 229 Nm (169 lb-ft) of torque.
