Hyundai working on Corvette Z06 rival

Hyundai/Corvette Z06

The automotive industry has been sprinkled with the number of supercars rather unexpected countries in recent months. Samples from Sweden, Denmark, Spain, Poland and even clap, to give the major manufacturers of supercars a run for its money. Now, this is a rumor that we may be adding to the mix Hyundai as well. South Korean automaker is rumored to work on a new supercar, which would take the model as a Corvette Z06, Nissan GT-R and Porsche 911.

If produced, the new model can be sporty coupe based on the new all-aluminum company Tao 5.0-liter engine V8. The choice for transmission is still in the air, but because of the excessive weight of the car would be rear-wheel-drive model. Since it is placed above the Genesis R-Spec Coupe, expect that the new supercar to deliver more than 429 hp and 376 lb-ft of torque.

Hyundai, the new supercar will deliver the same options as a luxury sedan as Equus, including manual IPad owners and pick-ups and services, when the car needs service.

Of course, all this is only speculation at this time. Asked about the future supercar, Hyundai CEO John Krafcik said that there is a supercar in the works. In fact, he said, "No, no," and called the rumors "obscene nonsense." Anyone remember how many cars were born from a direct denial?
