After the Hyundai made the new 2013 Veloster Turbo and released it to the market, Hyundai now has a possible four-cylinder turbo engine that’s just begging to go into other models in the automaker’s ever-expanding lineup.

One recipient for the new engine may end up being the recently revealed 2013 Elantra GT.

The Elantra GT is known in Europe as the i30, a car that has a high-performance version in the works, and there’s a good chance that this model will also be offered to U.S. customers.

The information was revealed by Hyundai’s European chief, Allan Rushforth, who spoke recently with What Car?

“We are considering more performance-oriented variants, with better-tuned, more focused handling, at the top of both our ranges in the C and D segments,” he said. In the case of Hyundai that would mean the i30 and i40, the latter being a mid-size sedan and wagon that shares much in common with the Sonata.

Unfortunately, the hotted-up i30 isn’t due out for a while as Hyundai is waiting until a sportier three-door body is launched. The good news is that it could get Hyundai’s latest dual-clutch transmission when it arrives.

“We’re looking at developing a dual-clutch transmission strategy for the whole range. There could be applications right across our model lineup,” Rushforth also stated.

In the Veloster Turbo, Hyundai’s new turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine is rated at 198 horsepower.

Hyundai Motors, one of the leading car manufacturers in Asia, has just unveiled their latest creation: a Hyundai i40 Concept set to be released this 2011. The overall design is inspired by one of Hyundai’s best creations – the Hyundai Sonata Sedan.

Here’s what the press release of Hyundai i40 Concept has to say:

Making its world premiere in Geneva will be Hyundai’s all-new D-segment model, the i40. Designed and engineered at Hyundai’s European R&D headquarters in Rüsselsheim, Germany, the i40 will move the company towards a ‘modern premium’ positioning that will bring high-end features and vehicle quality to Hyundai customers at accessible prices.

The evolution of the brand is also evidenced in the unique design aesthetic of Hyundai’s form language ‘fluidic sculpture’, which gives the i40 an innovative and attractive silhouette around a spacious and luxurious interior. The first official image of i40, revealed today, shows the sculpted shapes and thoughtful layout of the high-quality interior.

The first undisguised images of the 2011 Hyundai Sonata sedan are here for your first scrutiny. These images are caught by the folks at Hyundai Blog during a photo shoot.

The 2011 Sonata looks promising in the looks department with its expressive design. It is said that Sonata will feature a four-door coupe profile, adding more zest to its already fresh look.

We still have to wait for the car’s official release for us to take a good look at its entire specs and features. More photos of the 2011 Hyundai Sonata sedan after the jump.

The 2010 Hyundai Genesis sedan should see no major changes following its introduction for the 2009 model year. Hyundai’s largest car offers two engines: a 290-hp 3.8-liter V6 for the 3.8; and a 375-hp 4.6-liter V8 for the 4.6. A new base model with a 3.3-liter V6 may join the sedan lineup sometime in the model year.

Due later in model-year 2010 is the Genesis coupe. It’s based on a shortened sedan platform and will be powered by a new turbocharged 4-cylinder or the 3.8-liter V6 shared with the sedan. Power estimates are at least 200 hp for the 4-cylinder and more than 300 for the V6. All sedan engines team with a 6-speed automatic transmission that has a manual shift gate. The coupes will offer a 6-speed manual as well as an automatic. Available safety features include ABS, traction control, antiskid system, curtain side airbags, front side airbags, and rear side airbags.

Among the available sedan features are heated and cooled driver seat, wireless cell phone link, a navigation system with hard drive for storing digital music files, rearview camera, and front- and rear-obstacle detection. The Genesis sedan has a knob in the center console that governs audio, navigation, and other functions. Adaptive cruise control is available. This evaluation is based on preview test drives of the 2009 Genesis sedan.
