A photo that appears to show the redesigned 2015 Hyundai Genesis has hit the web, likely taken in the car’s home market of Korea where the new Genesis will be unveiled sometime before the beginning of 2014.

At last year’s Detroit Auto Show, Hyundai presented the HCD-14 Concept, the precursor to the new Genesis. New design cues are clearly taken from the HCD, though the production car is much more conservative than the wild looking concept.

The largest change comes to the front end of this car with an all-new grille design, new headlights and an entirely new front fascia. In profile, the Genesis has some new sharp lines that appear more angular than the current car, along with a long sloping rear end that almost gives the new Genesis a fastback style.

Many of the specifics regarding this car are still unknown, but Hyundai has confirmed that its new HTRAC all-wheel drive system will debut on the new Genesis. The engine lineup consisting of a 5.0-liter V8 and 3.8-liter V6 is not expected to change.
