My bad.

I hunted that article down, and yep, autoweek is saying it is FWD, and it is not based upon the same chassis as the Hyundai Genesis Coupe.

"The Koup is built on a front-wheel drive unibody architecture and is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter, direct-injection four-cylinder engine that makes 290 horsepower and 289 lb-ft of torque."

Suddenly the car became less relevant...

Or is that just me? :biggrin:
