2001 Hyundai HCD6 Concept

The Hyundai HCD VI Roadster was styled by the talented team at the HATCI California Design studio in Fountain Valley, California, located near the famed shores of Newport Beach. The two-seat open top roadster has many unique design features including detached, floating front and rear carbon fiber bumpers, a clear, see-through engine cover and high-mount exhaust. The most striking feature is a deeply sculpted side air intake system, said HCD Senior Designer Dragan Vukadinovic who led the exterior design team on the HCD VI. The entire side of the car serves as ducting to the engine. This design also improves aerodynamics by taking normally turbulent wheel well air, smoothing it out and using it for engine cooling.
