Scrabble?! SCOUP

Definitions of SCOUP in various dictionaries:

The Hyundai Scoupe was a 2-door coupé based on the Hyundai Excel. The name, a portmanteau of "sporty" and "coupe," was pronounced "scoop". In the UK and other countries it is known as an "S Coupé". It was sold in the United States from December 1988 through 1995. An 81 horsepower, 1.5l Mitsubishi sourced I4 engine provided power to the front wheels via a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission. Several changes came for 1993, when Scoupes got a facelift, including the current Hyundai "H" logo, new flush headlamps plus body-colored side moldings and redesigned front sheetmetal, taillights, and rear bumper. The Base and LS models came with a new and improved, In-house manufactured, 1.5l 12-valve, direct-port fuel-injected engine, called "Alpha". The 1,495 cc Alpha, with a 75.5 mm (2.97 in) bore and an 83.5 mm (3.29 in) stroke, produced 92 hp (69 kW) at 5,500 rpm and 97 lb⋅ft (132 N⋅m) of torque at 4,000 rpm in naturally aspirated form, with a 10:1 compression ratio, and 115 hp (86 kW) at 5,500 rpm and 123 lb⋅ft (167 N⋅m) of torque at 4,500 rpm when turbocharged, with a 7.5:1 compression ratio. Turbos came only with 5-speed manual shift, while Base and LS models could have an optional 4-speed automatic. The Australian spec S-Coupe GT Turbo has been road tested by several Australian magazines, returning times of 9.2-9.3 secs for 0–100 km/h and 16.8 secs for the 0–400 m dash. Hyundai says the Scoupe was the first production application for Garrett Automotive Products' T15 turbocharger, which was new for the early 90's. The turbo unit includes water-cooled bearings and housings and an integral wastegate. The naturally aspirated Alpha boasts a 14% increase in power over its 1.5L Mitsubishi-designed predecessor, and the turbo produces 42% more power. A Lotus-tuned suspension was installed in both Base and LS models, while a slightly firmer strut valving was used in the GT. This, combined with the 2,176 lb (987 kg) curb weight made the car an interesting driving sport compact considering the low MSRP.The GT's EPA was 27 miles per US gallon (8.7 L/100 km; 32 mpg‑imp) city, and 33 miles per US gallon (7.1 L/100 km; 40 mpg‑imp) highway. The 1988-92 "Base" models achieved 26 miles per US gallon (9.0 L/100 km; 31 mpg‑imp) city and 34 miles per US gallon (6.9 L/100 km; 41 mpg‑imp) Hwy for Manual Trans, and 25 miles per US gallon (9.4 L/100 km; 30 mpg‑imp) city and 32 miles per US gallon (7.4 L/100 km; 38 mpg‑imp) for Automatic. The 1992-95 "Base" Alpha 1.5 engine models achieved 28 miles per US gallon (8.4 L/100 km; 34 mpg‑imp) city 36 miles per US gallon (6.5 L/100 km; 43 mpg‑imp) Hwy for Manual Trans and 25 miles per US gallon (9.4 L/100 km; 30 mpg‑imp) City and 34 miles per US gallon (6.9 L/100 km; 41 mpg‑imp) for Automatic. The car was replaced by the Tiburon in 1996. This car made an appearance on BBC Top Gear Series 13 Episode 2 as Richard Hammond's car for the challenge where the presenters are fin...
