Potholes and Club
The inspiration for Hyundai Curb concept came from the need to develop language Hyundai 'Fluid Sculpture "design for young buyers. Hyundai's designers wanted to create a vehicle loaded with technology that has been comfortable in an urban environment with holes and nightclubs to take on the street. The vehicle is required to liaise Advanced Blue and connectivity to the impact and shock. From these ideas was the "robust technology management" to Curb formed.
"We wanted the sidewalk to be difficult in urban areas without looking like a Brink's truck," said Jason Brown, designer of Hyundai. "City driving would be strong, do not cross the Rubicon Trail, but we wanted an urban armor for everyday driving on the streets of the city. I had to empower its passengers in this context."
Exterior styling
Hyundai Concept design starts with the empty glass to spread into the hood and wraps around the fireplace, which covers a pillar. It looks like a face motorcycle helmet motorcycle sport. Under the glass is closed with glass panels, used as a shield.
"The mesh of the hull structure to climb the pillars to help increase visibility in dense urban environments," said John Krsteski, Curb Design Manager.
A striking profile is dominated by a boomerang trajectory of the trolley line. This is the dominant line, brings the whole picture together and reinforces the sense of strength and its positive and negative forms.

The slim, sleek headlamps and taillights diving in the vehicle that creates the illusion that they are connected in the engine compartment or inside.

These wheels have spokes inserted in the tires to make them a deeper profile. You can enter Curb Hyundai Concept, you simply pull their finger on a touchpad to open the doors.
Exhaust ducts have a double purpose. They pop open to display a grid so that the owner could park and set up a "Fixie" (fixed gear) bike for the rest of their destinations as an alternative source of transportation. The roof also features roof support towers pop-up, which shows the perfect combination to be robust, but high technology. Braking has a clamshell rear hatch illuminated, also opened with a touch panel to load gear and a third rear door for easy passage up and leave.
In the beginning, the Hyundai Concept LED brake light many lights in sequence, starting with the outside lines and emblems of the curing light through the paint. Shamz coatings developed custom paint finish one way to name the sidewalk to light through the paint.
POWER OF CONNECTIVITY
Connections is the theme for the decoration, making a seamless flow of information from outside the concept Hyundai sidewalk.
"The goal was to ensure the passengers looked at each other and the urban environment around them," said Bradley Arnold, Curb decorator. "We wanted to give power to the passenger information and make them feel that the layout is combined with interior design."

It flows like a river in the instrument cluster in the center console control over the dashboard and all the way back. wheel itself is an opaque surface with a screen that shows through. There are also monitors behind the headrests.
