The Hyundai Enduro Concept sharpens its blades in Toronto Veloster-like crossover features sharp, cutting design cues all around The Hyundai Enduro Concept made its North American debut at the 2017 Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto after having been previously unveiled at the Seoul Motor Show. The Enduro Concept is a three-door compact crossover that’s designed for urban-dwellers. It resembles a more vertical, bulked-up Veloster with an elongated hood, low ride height and low-profile tires. Its front fascia starts out similar to the brand’s current models with a signature hexagonal front grille, but its design language turns to concept with a brushed-aluminum blade jetting out from both its front fenders and wrapping around to the bottom of the grille. The brushed-aluminum blade also assists the concept in improving air distribution by redirecting air into the side intakes for less aerodynamic drag. Its headlights also take the form of a blade, this time in a straight form that works its way from the concept’s massive wheel arch to the front of the hood, bolstering the look of the Enduro Concept As you take a walk to its back end, the Enduro Concept starts to resemble more hatch than crossover. It shows off its sporty side with a central dual-tip exhaust system, as well as side intakes that imitate the ones in the front. The lines off the back wheel arches flow horizontally through the rear, above the exhaust. Most concepts’ interiors are closed off from the public, but it looks like plenty of vertical switches are placed along the centre console of the Enduro. The steering wheel features a spoke-and-handle molding straight from what you would find on a bicycle. According to Hyundai, many of the vehicle functions can be controlled via a remote control situated on the dash. Under the hood, the Enduro Concept sports a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine. A horsepower number hasn’t been indicated, but we do know that the engine is matched to Hyundai’s new seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. At this point, we’re not sure that this look is Hyundai’s futuristic design language or something the brand simply wanted to use to gauge public reaction. Its funky design is similar to that of the Nissan Juke, and if produced it would appear to be a natural competitor, along with other compact crossovers such as the Mazda CX-3, Honda HR-V and Fiat 500X.
