Never has 275 HP gotten to 100kmh so slowly.

Jesus. Serious numbers there.


No way those performance numbers are accurate. If those HP numbers are right, this thing will be properly quick.

350hp 8spd auto. good way to set it apart from the veloster,with turbo or not. If only it had more room for my stuff  :P

2.0 turbo gets sonata's engine with 275 tq/ hp on tap.

Wow...excellent powertrain upgrades. But what about price? There will definitely be a increase...will it still be possible to get a well equipped 2.0T for under $30K all in?

It sure looks like it.  Wait a year or two, and you can enjoy 0% for 60 months (if not 84 months).  Nice!

I've seen a couple youtube vids of both models on the track.  Looks better in motion than in the still photos to my eye, though I'm still not a fan of the aesthetic changes overall.  The V6 sounds terrific.  The 2.0T should be a real hoot, and I expect it won't be all that pricey.

If i was in the market, it would be super tough decision between the '13 GC 2.0T and a lightly used RX-8...
