Hyundai R&D Auto Show is not just for displaying cars but it's all open to the
public and most of the media they just come in, they hop in, you know, get to see
what the cars are like. Compare the car directly to competitors. So look, although
it's Hyundai Kia R&D show, they got Mazda 3, Kia *Ceed, this is meant for the
European market, not being sold in Korea. Look at this, they put on the Michelin
Pilot Sport 4 on it. Let's see, probably they have this one open as well.
Yup, and what is that? What the -- is that?
And this is a Kia Sportage, meant for the Chinese market, so we don't get to
see this in Korea, either. I have no clue what it says over here, but definitely
and it's meant for the Chinese market. Over here, all the cars are cut in half,
or it kind of made it look like it's a see-through. So they dissected the car so
you can look into the what the components are within an engine bay. Also the side
structure and also these beams to protect the passenger and also the
driver, and how the window sits, actually when you roll it down.
Of course, not only is it for the educational purpose, but also they
have it done so like that, so that those are developers as well as there's some
the third parties that work in correlations with Hyundai and Kia.
They can come in and they can look into the parts and the specs of this car so they
can really develop the parts necessary. So, we just saw the Telluride, Sonata as
well as G90 over here. Everything is cut in half and it's all see-through.
Even with this, they even took the cover off of this headlight
over here, so people can actually look into this very detail of what it looks
like with in. So, all the sensors, everything exposed
and of course, they did not dissect the Genesis emblem in half, because I
mean, you're not gonna do that, right? They even took off all the components from
the seats as well. So, what it looks like from the inside out. They've dissected
everything here, even the wheels, showing the calipers, what they use. And even this
flagship model, Genesis G90, is also dissected in half. People are taking out
very close look at this and also it even states, it's specifically for the US,
American markets so this is the car that you guys would see for yourself.
Or maybe one of you guys are driving it right now. Inside-out, everything gutted
out, cut in half, they took off the hinges, the
doors, everything. All those tiny little details.
People actually come in the Hyundai-Kia R&D Auto Show for this purpose.
As you can see, a lot of people, swarm of people around the cars
that's dissected, so that you know, honestly,
you don't get a chance like this, you just don't, right? I mean, even if you
total your car, it's not going to look anything close to this. Everything is
neatly and nicely cut for viewing purpose. So people are going in, looking
into, paying attention to every detail. So, I think one takeaway from this video
clip could be what the layouts that Hyundai uses for different cars. I can
already see that it's very different. What the seat is like for Sonata
vs. G90
I mean, it just cannot be the same. And also same goes for the rear tail lights
as well. They took off all the reflectors and parts, just look at this cutting
section right here. So, you can take the up-close look of what kind of system
that they use on their tail-lights, you know. Those are full LED lights.
Some people say that, that's just a little too much, well, it's not all that bad in
real-life. You guys have seen it too. And even all the struts and the metal
components that's on the trunk lid that will protect the drivers and passengers
when it when it gets your rear-ended. That's just one of the privileges that we
could get as Koreans in Korea, and Hyundai and Kia being the Korean
company, they open a show like this. And the bestseller in its category, Kia Soul.
I've heard that, the car was really, really backed-up.
Same goes for this cat right here, they took off everything.
Can see the up-close look and components within.
