Hyundai Unveils Yet another Zombie Survival Machine

Earlier this year, Hyundai showed up at the San Diego Comic Con with a Hyundai Veloster-based zombie-fighting vehicle. Apparently they weren’t satisfied with just one “Zombie Survival Machine”, and so now they’re back with another. This time at the New York Comic Con.

This time around however it wasn’t Hyundai designers who penned the vehicle. Instead it was dreamt-up by Anson Kuo, a Hyundai Santa Fe owner, and winner of  The Walking Dead Chop Shop configurator app. Kuo’s design was picked from over 82,500 submissions.
“My main design goal was to make the vehicle as stealthy and spacious as possible,” said Kuo. “I knew knives and blades would be the best bet for weaponry – they could slice and dice the zombies without releasing any ammunition. Basing the design on the Santa Fe allows space for extra passengers as well as weapons, supplies and all the other necessary items needed during a real zombie apocalypse.”

Kuo’s urban camouflaged Zombie Survival Machine features knife blades, an automatic crossbow, razor-wired windows, three machine guns, a samurai sword, aluminum armor and a muffler silencer.
Like the Veloster Zombie Survival Machine before, the Santa Fe ZSM was fabricated by Galpin Auto Sports.

“Anson Kuo’s custom Santa Fe Zombie Survival Machine is the ultimate car for The Walking Dead fans” said Steve Shannon, vice president, Marketing, Hyundai Motor America. “It’s very cool to see Anson’s great design become a real-life, detailed, zombie-proof vehicle.”

Interestingly, when the Santa Fe ZSM isn’t slicing through zombie hordes, it would make the ideal vehicle for commuting through New York city.
