POWER GREEDY HYUNDAI GREDDY FOR SEMA 2009



Hyundai and Japanese tuner GReddy Performance Parts have teamed up for the 2009 SEMA Show to bring us this GReddy X-Gen Street Genesis Coupe. Based on the Genesis Coupe 2.0T (not sold in South Africa) the car makes more power and features kit – in and out – that can be purchased by any Genesis Coupe owner in any country where the car is available.

Several changes were made which include a turbo kit, an intercooler and a sports exhaust system. Power is now 257kW and maximum torque is pegged at 434Nm. The tuner says it will run from 0 – 100km/h in just over 6 seconds. Amazingly a 368kW tune-up is to be sold after the show. GReddy installed a stiffer suspension to improve handling and match up to the power.

Changes to the exterior include a carbon fibre bonnet, an aero lip spoiler and a more aggressive rear spoiler.
