![]() ![]() There were various options, with or without ABS, 2 airbags, leather, and sunroof. Its appearance was a revival of coke bottle styling, popular during the 1960s and 1970s.

In 1998 the Tiburon lost its weaker 1.8L engine, giving both models the 2.0L. The 2.0L produces a 0–60 mph time of ~8.3, with a 1/4 mile time of ~16 seconds. Base weight was around 2,550 lb (1,150 kg), giving the RD Tiburon a higher power-to-weight ratio than the newer GK 2.0L. The 2.0L was rated at 140 hp (104 kW) at the crankshaft (the car's manual specifies 102 kW (137 hp) at the flywheel). In the United States, the Tiburon was first offered in 1997 with base models using the Elantra's 1.8L 130 hp (97 kW) engine while the upscale FX received a 2.0L four-cylinder engine. It was available in a few foreign markets with engine choices of either 1.6L or 1.8L. This generation took several design cues from the "HCD-II Epoch" concept that debuted at the 1993 Detroit Auto Show. Tiburon first began production in late 1996.
