Hyundai To Reveal Veloster "Grappler" Concept At The 2019 SEMA Show

Hyundai has announced that it will be unveiling the Veloster “Grappler” concept at the 2019 SEMA show.

The Grappler concept boasts increased ground clearance, a custom front and rear brush guards, oversized all-terrain tires, rally-themed Method Racing wheels, as well as Borla cat-back exhaust components.

For extra cargo capabilities, a roof-mounted Thule utility basket includes a high-output lighting system from Baja Designs. Plus, there is a full host of roof-mounted utility lights which allow for versatility on the go.

The utility basket also serves as a base mount for the removable solar panel from Goal Zero, powering an all-electric portable power station mounted inside the cabin for remote journeys.

And then we have a custom vinyl exterior body wrap which features a ghosted Hyundai-themed livery, and a Seibon carbon-fibre hood which effectively vents excess engine bay heat when things heat up out on the road.

Inside the cabin, the functional ruggedness theme continues. An integrated roll bar provides occupant protection and facilitates mounting for a full-size spare wheel and tire.

Further outfitting the interior are traction mats, an oversized utility shovel, a Goal Zero portable power station, a roadside assistance kit, a first aid kit, a Napier outdoor dome tent, Scosche Mounts, Goal Zero crush lights, and premium Recaro seats finished in a vintage hounds tooth check pattern.  The exterior lighting is modulated through a custom-designed switch panel.

And finally, there are the Hyundai genuine accessories that round out the functionality of the vehicle, such as sport pedals, a sport shifter, all-weather mats, ambient footwell lighting, and cargo blocks.
