2012 Hyundai Santa Fe

Some spy pics have turned up of the 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe (I erroneously labeled it 2013 previously), and it appears to look similar to my previous pic, although some grille detail was revealed.  Although I believe the opening above is too tall, I filled it with something similar to what's seen in the spy pics.  It looks as if the grille will be filled with chrome, somewhere halfway between that on the Sonata and the lower grille opening on the Elantra Limited.

2012 Hyundai Genesis Coupe

My attempt at a facelift for the Genesis Coupe, as one is coming for 2012 (or 2013?), in the form of a mock ad.

Kia Koup RWD

Someone mentioned wondering what a Kia version of the Genesis Coupe would look like, so I did up this quick version with pieces of the Optima. Added the Optima headlights and grille skewed a bit to fit, and rehashed the Genesis Coupe lines up front to match. The lower front fascia is all Genesis Coupe too, modified to fit. Shortened the foglights to look more like the Optimas, and added a chrome surround and grille pattern to the lower fascia (again like the Optima).

For the roofline, I stuck in that of the Optima again and edited it for a coupe, following the cutlines of the Genesis Coupe. The doors are straight and sides are straight from the Genny, except I removed the dip in the rear windows. Also removed the spoiler as Kias look best without one. Oh - and added Optima rims.

2011 Hyundai Elantra 3-Door Hatch

I did the coupe first, and then had a request for a hatch. Most of what I did for the coupe applies, but I found it tougher to meld a hatch roofline with the swoopy Elantra. The rest is kind of Citroen C4 meets CR-Z meets Veloster.

No rear view yet, but it would have a CRX style panel back their to aid visibility.

2011 Hyundai Elantra Coupe

Playing around in Photoshop upon hearing word that Hyundai plans to release a coupe version of the new Elantra. Pretty much a simple coupification - edited the roofline and photoshopped out the rear door while making the front door larger.

Up front I stuck some LED style headlamps in from the recently release i40, and removed the grille detail to open things up and make it look a like more aggresive. I also enlarged the holes for the fog lights to add some extra inlets to make it look sportier.

Lastly I added some Genesis Coupe rims and lowered it a bit.
