Atlantis Blue JP Edition Genesis Coupe Puts Style First
Hyundai just unveiled its fourth car bound for this year’s SEMA Show in Las Vegas: a specially-tuned Genesis Coupe.
Built in collaboration by Hyundai and tuner John Pangilinan, the car places a special emphasis on its striking paint color. Sitting beside the hopped-up 1000-hp Genesis Coupe that will also be at this year’s show, the “Atlantis Blue JP Edition Genesis Coupe” looks nothing short of tame.
1,000-HP Hyundai Genesis Coupe Headed for SEMA
Of course, it’s also been modified with performance parts as well. It gets a cold air intake, turbo downpipe and performance exhaust. Hyundai didn’t specify what the presumably marginal power gains associated with the bolt-on parts would be.
A coil-over suspension will improve handling while lowering ride height. Sway bars and a performance strut bar also go toward improving handling.
There are also 19-inch wheels with performance tires filling the wells that also house a Brembo brake kit with 15-inch calipers.
Cabin changes include Recaro sport seats and racing harnasses. There’s also a GoPro Hero 3 video camera mounted inside the car to capture in-car footage. The sound system is also gutted and replaced with a long list of aftermarket parts including a pair of 10-inch subwoofers, a new head unit and speakers.
