Hyundai reveals 745kW Bisimoto Genesis Coupe ahead of SEMA
Hyundai has given a look at the first of its show cars headed for SEMA in November: a loudly blue Genesis Coupe modified by Bisimoto Engineering.
Based on a Hyundai Genesis 3.8 R-Spec, the concept added two turbochargers to the donor car's naturally aspirated V6, which also gained a raft of other changes, including forged pistons, a bigger fuel pump to feed the unit and an exposed radiator to cool it -- resulting in a power output of 745kW.
Yes, 745kW -- 200kW more than a Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. In fact, it also trumps the Bugatti Veyron's 736kW. The Bisimoto Genesis Coupe sports an eye-gouging blue paint job set off by carbon fibre and black panels, and rides low-slung on 20-inch Incurve aluminum wheels.
The cabin gets track-ready kit, including a roll cage, racing seats and harnesses --fitting with Hyundai's statement the Bisimoto Genesis aims to blend "the reliability of a street car but with the outrageous power of a no-holds-barred racer." Hyundai and other carmakers will be revealing other outrageous concepts ahead of SEMA's opening in Las Vegas on November 5.

I'd love to take a ride in that thing when it's done. Hopefully it's fully functional and can be driven. Some of those show cars have a huge amount of power but they dont even see 2 or 3 miles a year because they're trailer queens.

Haven't seen that one yet
Damn dude, that's sweet.
Now that would be a build! Except with a Tau. I'll put that on the shelf labeled "after winning the lottery"
