The Hyundai Tiburon is a front-wheel-drive sports coupe produced by Hyundai from 1996 to 2008. It launched as the RD generation and continued as the GK generation. It carried different names across markets — Tiburon, Coupé, Turbulence, Tuscani — all describing the same body and layout.
The Hyundai Genesis Coupe is a front-engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe launched in Korea on October 13, 2008. It shares its platform with the Genesis luxury sedan. It arrived in US dealerships on February 26, 2009, as a 2010 model. It was discontinued in 2016. Engine options included a 2.0T turbocharged 4-cylinder and an optional 3.8 L Lambda V6.

Hyundai N Vision 74 is a functional, road-capable concept that tests hydrogen-electric drive in a rear-wheel-drive sports layout. It is not a production preview, nor a styling manifesto — it is engineering made visible.
The Hyundai Pony is South Korea’s first mass-produced and exported car. It is a small rear-wheel-drive automobile produced from 1975 to 1990 in saloon, liftback, coupé utility, and estate body styles. Giorgetto Giugiaro designed both the 1974 Pony Coupé Concept — shown at Turin, uncommissioned by Hyundai — and the 1975 production Pony. The concept influenced domestic advertising and reverse engineering at Ulsan, but never entered mass production.
