Another no-name car

Another Michigan-manufacturer plate in front of me. Taking pics of it but suddenly sped off and weaved thru rush hour traffic. Large sedan with no camo but did not have a name badge.

I have a good guess but what do you think it is?

Chrysler 200, unknown trim level, could be a proto for a '16 trim level as I've not found any online pics that match every detail.

Darcane got it! The dual exhausts makes it the3.8L V6 HTRAC AWD model, not the quad pipes of the 5.0 V8. There is a lot of new Hyundai/Kia testing around these parts.

BTW, you were a little off on "no name badge". The emblem on the trunk lid is the Genesis emblem:
