Hyundai Opens Veloster's Roof Like a Tin Can to Create C3 Roll Top Concept [w/Videos]

Gone are the times that carmakers used the terms' convertible' and 'cabriolet' to describe genuine open top models. Nowadays, you have Fiat calling the 500C a convertible and Citroen the DS3 Cabrio, well, a cabriolet, even though both models feature a roll over, cloth sunroof that happens to include the rear window.

We didn’t mention those two models by chance, as Hyundai has also attempted something similar with its new Veloster C3 Roll Top Concept that made its world premiere today at the LA Auto Show.

For its first appearance at the annual SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the 2013 Hyundai Elantra GT hatchback has received an extensive tune by California-based Bisimoto Engineering.

While it may not look like it from the single teaser rendering, this Elantra GT packs a might punch under its hood as Bisimoto made a whole of upgrades to the stock model's 1.8-liter four-cylinder powerplant.

The second Veloster concept car getting ready to make its way to Hyundai's SEMA Show booth at the end of October is named "Alpine", and like the Genesis Coupe R-Track Study, it too was born from the collaborative efforts of the Korean automaker's US division and ARK Performance.

The Veloster Alpine is not as racy as Hyundai's own 400Hp Veloster "Velocity" project, with ARK Performance stating that the car was designed to appeal to mountain sports enthusiasts - though, we won't blame you if you don't see this from the teaser image...

The 2012 Australian International Motor Show, held in Sydney and open to the public from October 19 to 28, will see Hyundai displaying the new Veloster Street Concept.

The very SEMA-like project car is based on the production model and has been modified from top to bottom in conjunction with local aftermarket company Concord Customs.

On the outside, the body is finished in matt grey paint with orange accents to be found on the new side-skirts, rear diffuser, front spoiler and the Tenso R V1 18-inch wheels that are shod in 215/40/18 tires.

Over the past few years, Hyundai has participated with zest in all previous SEMA shows with plenty of cars, and it plans to continue doing so at the 2012 edition of the world's biggest aftermarket gathering that takes place in Sin City at the end of this month.

After the ARK Performance- and the Cosworth-prepped Genesis Coupes, the Korean car manufacturer today announced details on a third concept that will debut in SEMA, this one based on the smaller Veloster hatch.

Famed British engineering design and manufacturer Cosworth has collaborated with Hyundai to develop the "ultimate" Genesis Coupe in the form of the Cosworth Genesis Racing Series (CGRS) Concept, to be displayed for the first time ever at the upcoming 2012 SEMA show at the end of October.

As with any other Cosworth-prepped model, the highlight of the Genesis Racing Series study is the power lurking under the hood.

With all the commotion surrounding this week's Paris Motor Show, it would be easy to overlook the 2012 edition of the SEMA Show, which will take place from October 30 to November 2 in Las Vegas.

Hyundai wants to remind us of the upcoming event by teasing one of the many tuned concept models it plans to unveil at the Las Vegas Convention Center.

This is it, Hyundai's ultimate "Zombie Survival Machine". Following the release of a handful of teaser photos from the development phase earlier today, the South Korean carmaker blew the covers off the customized model at San Diego’s Comic-Con fest.

The Elantra Coupe Zombie Survival Machine is the design work of the creator of "The Walking Dead" comic series Robert Kirkman, with Southern California-based fabricator Design Craft taking the project from paper to reality.

These are the first photos of the real-life version of the 'zombie survival' Hyundai Elantra Coupe that was created in celebration of the 100th issue of The Walking Dead comic series, and which will be officially revealed at this week's Comic-Con International festival that opens later today in San Diego.

Hyundai Debuts China Market Elantra Alongside New Santa Fe and Concept Cars in Beijing

This year's edition of the Beijing Motor Show coincided with the 10th anniversary of Hyundai's joint venture in China. In celebration of the occasion, the Korean automaker revealed the domestic market versions of the Elantra, which has been renamed Langdong, and the Sante Fe SUV, while it also brought along two concept models, one of which is pictured above.

Speaking at a press event in Beijing, Hyundai Vice President Seung-Tack Kim said: "A decade ago, Hyundai was known for making only small cars. Today, our Equus and Genesis luxury cars compete with the best vehicles that Europe can make. Ten years ago, we were a follower in the auto industry. Today, we are a leader – and ready for the future."

Hyundai's people want us to take a ride with them into the not-so-distant future with the company's new i-oniq concept car that made its first public outing at this week's 82nd Geneva International Motor Show.

The i-oniq is described as a range-extended electric sports hatchback that demonstrates the next evolution of Hyundai’s fluidic sculpture design language and showcases the automaker's new powertrain technologies.

Designed and developed at Hyundai’s European R&D center in Germany, the 4.4 meter long hatchback with the sporty shape and the impressive doors that open up to the side, has some unique design cues that will be applied to the next generation of the Korean firm's models.

New photos of the Hyundai i-oniq were dumped onto the web today affording us several fresh views of the concept model including our first look at the rear end and the interior as well as revealing its sporty Lamborghini-style scissor doors.

The Korean company says that the i-oniq study previews the styling of the firm's next generation of models while also providing a glimpse at future technologies especially in the powertrain and connectivity departments.

Even though we've already shown you the new Geneva Motor Show-bound i-oniq concept car, today, Hyundai came out with an official release affording us some more information.

The concept study represents an impression of the company’s future, both in terms of styling, as it further evolves Hyundai's ‘fluidic sculpture’ design language, and in terms of technology.

"The i-oniq concept has been created to reflect the new thinking that runs through the Hyundai brand," says Senior Vice President and COO of Hyundai Motor Europe, Allan Rushforth.

Following the release of a teaser sketch back in December, we now have the first official image of Hyundai's i-oniq concept study that is set to debut at the 2012 Geneva motor show next week.

Albeit not a coupe in the traditional sense as it sports a rear hatch, the i-oniq is a sporty looking model featuring a low roofline and sleek body work that represents the next evolution of the Korean brand’s ‘fluidic sculpture’ styling language.

Maybe it's just us, but from this angle, the front-end design brings to mind the Nissan 350Z.
