RX: Holte unveils Hyundai

Category: ERC, News Posted 04.02.14 21:21 by

Last Saturday Norwegian Frode Holte unveiled the first Hyundai i20 SuperCar for Rallycross in the making, pictured by ERC24 snapper Jan Kåre Rafoss in Holte’s hometown of Mandal.

 

Although the weatherman warned him that at least 30cm of fresh snow could hamper his journey, the ERC24 snapper took the risk to get pictures from the unveiling of Frode Holte’s all-new Rallycross machinery, the first Hyundai i20 SuperCar. Mobile phone piccies or design scetches may be found somewhere else, here is a selection from the images JKR brought home from his winter expedition.  :lol:

The ‘Sørlandets Motorsport Show’ attracted a lot of people.

At 14:00 the beauty to become a beast was set free.

The audience was pleased, even so the Hyundai i20 livery looks a bit “Swedish”…

Nope, the car isn’t ready yet, a lot of work to be done before the start of the season.
