Hyundai’s hopping onto the Vision Gran Turismo concept train with an all new concept, which was recently teased ahead of its debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September.
But the concept isn’t the only thing being launched during Hyundai’s time at the 2015 IAA as the South Korean automaker will also be launching their new N Performance sub-brand.
Hyundai’s been rumored to be working on a new performance brand to increase the automaker’s appeal as they continue to climb upwards as a strongly competitive automaker. The N Performance brand could turn out some serious sports cars to show that they’re not not exactly joking around any more and are seeking to be taken more seriously in comparison to the more established automakers of the market.
Either way, Hyundai’s been making profound progress with their success and with other rumors floating about such as a possible BMW 3-Series fighter, as well as their latest Vision G Coupe Concept previewing a new, more luxurious Genesis Coupe, we’re eager to see what they have in store.
