Hyundai Arnejs

Hyundai has released this sketch of the Arnejs (ar-nez), a new hatchback that will represent the Korean firm in the busy European C-segment. The Arnejs is sister to the Kia C'eed, and will be on the road by Summer 2007 following its production preview at the Paris Motor Show.  The C'eed itself will be shown in production form nearby, ready for Fall sales this year. Expect engines to be shared between the two.

It turns out, at the moment, that the North American run is all there is.
