Sounds more like a polo GTI competitor in engine specs but is too big and too heavy. Still, kudos to Hyundai for having a go, the genesis v8 they do for the USA is a fair good bit of kit so give this another couple of years to get a decent power revision, then it could be phenomenal
i can see why people would get it - reliability of the kiundais as of late, contemporary designs, and the interior looks trick and loaded with features.
it'll appeal to many people who want something that "looks" sporty, but who've never pressed on enough to find the limits of their car on a deserted b-road.
chassis though.... from what i've read (eg evo magazine) it's just not there yet, so im guessing next gen for serious competitiveness, if not two gens from now.
mind you, that might not be their M.O. at all - let the marketing department sing "sporty sporty sporty" whist they offload shedpiles of cars with beige performance to masses of people who care more about "standout styling" than how the thing actually drives. (my turn to be captain obvious for the day).

I think you just described Toyota and their clientele. If I get stuck behind another Camry Sportivo driver that freaks out at the sight of a slight corner, and I've had a bad day, I may well go kamikaze on their a$$.
