Hyundai HCD-14 Genesis Concept Revealed

Hyundai showed off its new HCD-14 Genesis Concept at the Detroit Auto Show in January - the concept is a sleek, more luxury vehicle and is a taste of what we can expect from Hyundai (as far as premium sedans) in the future.

"HCD-14 Genesis gives a hint of the design direction we'll be taking, and an indication of the focus we're placing on driving dynamics and technology," said CEO of Hyundai Motor America John Krafcik.

The technology he describes is referring to the interactive 3D gesture recognition and eye-tracking system in the HCD-14 Genesis. The systems work together so that the driver may keep their hands on the wheel and eyes on the road more frequently, as opposed to needing to reach out to utilize the car's technology. A windshield head-up display (HUD) is placed above the steering wheel, which relays info without the driver needing to look away from the road.

As far as design, the HCD-14 Genesis Concept is a four-door coupe with a large focus on driving dynamics and driver-centric experience, according to Motor Authority. For a full "tour" of the vehicle, check out the video below!
