Hyundai-i40-geneva

The 2012 Hyundai i40 is avalable eith a choise of four Euro V-complaint engines including two gasoline and two diesels. All four units range from 113-hp to 174-hp. Of course that wont allow your any impressive perfomance numbers but you will definitely be saving money at the pump.

Genava has been quite a show for big, handsome wagons, from the stonking Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG to the shapely Saab 9-5 Sportcombi, theres been a kinschlepper for every taste and budget. Adding to the variety is Hyundais i40 estate, and it, too, is a looker.
Boasting the same shaply rising character line as the Sonata sedan upon whish its based, the i40 nevertheless has a more traditional nose, with a smaller grille and headlamps that look more like those from the Sonata Hybrid. Overall, the front aesthetic lurks somewhere betwen the Elantra and an embiggened Veloster, but either way, its all Hyundai ant its an attractive piece.

Hyundai is quick to note that the i40 was developed in Russelsheim, Germany, with the European market firmly in mind, and it will be the Continents first crack at the model range when it hits dealers later this year. A sedan variant will follow, but its not known if it will look like the North American YF Sonata sedan, or if it eill adopt this cars front clip.

Similarly, we know that more than a few executives within Hyundai of America want to see two-box Sonata come to the States, but it isnt yet clear if a business case has been made for the shapely load-lugger.
