Move Over BMW: Hyundai Targeting Affordable High Performance Track Capable Cars With New "N" Division

Cars developed for Hyundai’s new performance N division will be “track-day-capable”, according to Albert Biermann, head of the firm’s vehicle testing and high-performance development.

Biermann said the cars he and his team were developing would benefit from significant engineering improvements, such as better engine and brake cooling, and much ?greater durability for suspension components.

“We want these N cars to be affordable high-performance,” he revealed. “It will be the wild end of the brand. We will develop a handful of models over the next five years.”

They need to re-aim the Genesis coupe at the Mustang/Camaro segment for one. For two they need a "GTI" and a "GLI". An Elantra WRX would be delicious as would a sedan smaller than the Genesis with a V8.
