Do you know, that Veloster with the engine behind the front seats, which we passed saw? Here it is in draft form. Hello, R(acing) M(idship) 15!

The Koreans have sometimes accused their sporty side unused to, and what concerns me. We see especially many proefballonnetjes, but no action. Hyundai is of the 2 is still the sportiest, with a nice Genesis Coupe, and participation in the WRC. Or the RM15 is a premonition of a scheurijzer for on the street, we must still wait and see.

The RM15 is built around an aluminum space frame, with panels that CFRP have been erected. By the many weight reduction measures is the weight of the carriage 1260 kg – approximately 200 kg lighter than a regular Flosser. The 19 inch vellings and huge spoiler about the intentions of the car no doubt.

Behind the driver lies a transversely mounted Theta 2.0 T-GDI, good for 300 hp and 383 Nm. 0-100 goes – provided you have the six-speed manual transmission good treats – in 4.7 seconds. The RM15 makes his debut this week in Seoul, and the danger is lurking that we never hear about it. Come on Hyundai, surprise us positively in this matter.
