Hyundai HED-5 concept
February 12, 2008 by Alborz Fallah
Hyundai motors has announced plans to show-off a brand new concept at this years’ Geneva Motor Show. Dubbed the HED-5, the 5 has little to do with the number of seats as it will seat six.
Hyundai is calling it a multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) with excellent practicality and fuel economy, but from the concept art photos we see here, it looks like a cross between a Mazda CX-7 and an i30.
The Korean company names some high profile players such as Recaro, Bayer and LG as suppliers to the HED-5. We can only assume the car will make do with Recaro seats, newly formulated material built by Bayer and LG supplied LCDs and other gadgets.
There is no word on the engine specifications yet, but with the Geneva motorshow less than a month away (CarAdvice is sending a team over for our own coverage) more details should surface soon.
Print it: 
Reminds me of a previous Toyota concept (that was ugly too).
The giant is awakening. Hyundai and Kia (same company) sold 6.9million sales worldwide last year. Not bad for a newcomer. Toyota sold 9.2million. The gap is not huge.
Go Hyundai! The Genesis sedan and coupe is testament they are on road to top! Only a fool would doubt it!
…..and seems to be some singular obsessed car lovers here bigtime!
You can see some similar characteristics of this concept to the genesis coupe concept – that big wedgy thing on the doors.
Guys this is a next gen i30/Elantra Touring. Next Gen Elantra Touring/i30 will look about 70% similar to this.
