The SEMA show in Las Vegas, United States has traditionally been a hub for tuning houses to showcase their extravagant renditions of production cars, and the coming iteration sticks to the proven formula, judging by the Hyundai BTR Edition Sport concept seen here, set for its debut next month.
Blood Type Racing, which lends its initials to the car, builds upon the Hyundai Elantra Sport as a base, and applies an AutoArt bodykit and paintwork to its exterior. This includes a ‘track-ready’ front lip kit and rear wing, while rolling stock is a set of 19-inch wheels with Toyo T1 Sport tyres mounted.
Helping the car attain that lowered stance is a set of HSD coilover suspension, while stopping duties are handled by a Fella big brake kit. Other chassis modifications include sway bars, an additional strut tower brace, and chassis brace from Pierce Motorsports.
Under the hood, the Elantra Sport’s 1.6 litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine gains a new air intake, revised ECU and a Devil’s Own water/methanol injection system. No output figures quoted but as standard, the Elantra Sport cranks out 204 PS and 265 Nm of torque.
Inside – though not pictured – is the interior which has also been reworked, receiving a carbon-fibre steering wheel, new upholstery and diamond-stitched floor mats. Other features include LED interior lighting and a custom tool set in the luggage compartment. What do you think of this customised Hyundai Elantra, dear readers?
