With an overall aspect that is mainly oriented towards the European market, the Hyundai 40 Sedan represents the next step in the evolution of the company’s ‘fluidic sculpure’ design principles. Allan Rushforth, Senior Vice President and COO of Hyundai Motor Europe said that "The launch of the sedan represents the next step of the i40’s
introduction to the European market, following the very positive
reception for the i40 wagon. The i40 sedan shares the same qualities
present in the wagon, including a dynamic design element, and broadens
the appeal of the i40 to buyers in the D-segment."
