The Hyundai Genesis PM580 is a race car created by Rhys Millen Racing for the 2010 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. The project was conceived to reclaim the record of Rhys' father Rod Millen from Nobuhiro "Monster" Tajima.
Despite being a completely bespoke design, the car is named after the Hyundai Genesis because it shares its 3.8 litre Lambda V6. That engine though has been heavily modified and bored to 4.1 litres and fitted with an intercooled HKS T04Z turbocharger to produce 750 hp. The car weighs a scant 1850 lb.
