The concept, which previews its new Genesis saloon, shows the carmaker's plans to push into the global luxury segment through bold styling as well as showcasing cutting-edge technologies such as eye-tracking and gesture-based controls. It also features a 5.0-litre V89 engine as well as rear-hinged rear cabin access. 'Hyundai's Genesis and Equus models are now recognised as serious contenders in the global luxury market. Our concept vehicle today will further raise Hyundai's premium brand image,' said Tak Uk Im, chief operating officer (COO) and head of Hyundai Motor's International Operations Division in Seoul. 'Our focus going forward is to strive for brand innovation based on quality.' The carmaker has reported a sharp increase in sales of top-end models such as the Genesis and Equus, with a 24% rise outside Korea in 2012 compared to the previous year.
