Hyundai Motor’s HCD-14 Genesis has earned the 2013 “Concept Car of the Year” award and the “Most Significant Concept Vehicle of the Year” title in North America, according to the carmaker’s U.S. sales arm.

The concept car beat out the Honda EV-STER and the Toyota Corolla Furia, among others, in the 12th annual North American Concept Vehicle of the Year Awards that recognize vehicles most likely to shape the future of the automobile industry, Hyundai Motor America said.

“Hyundai’s HCD-14 introduces future premium vehicle design, advanced 3-D gesture-based technology controls and spirited driving dynamics. Its rear hinged back doors and fastback coupe design add to the WOW factor,” Bob Kroupa, one of the Principals of the Automotive Writers Group, said in a comment posted Wednesday on the website of Hyundai Motor America.
