Hyundai HED-4 concept

Hyundai has decided that plastic is fantastic at Geneva this year.
This is the HED-4 concept, a two-door crossover designed in conjunction with GE Plastics.

We doubt whether the de rigeur giant alloys or caricaturised swept-back stance will be carried over, but the HED-4 is nonetheless a funky vision of a futuristic crossover.

You'd have to be pretty tall to get your Ikea flatpack in that boot, though...
