The Genesis sedan is Hyundai’s first foray into the high-end vehicle market. This sober vehicle offers luxury, comfort and refinement. Its equipment list is sure to garner attention, especially considering that its purchase price is well within range for this category. A few style upgrades are included for 2012, in addition to a more powerful V6 engine (333 hp). The V8 with direct fuel injection had a boost in volume to 5.0L.
Pros
- Excellent value for money
- Exterior still has a distinguished look
- Lots of room inside and very comfortable
- Very powerful V6 and (unnecessarily) super powerful V8
Cons
- Still no AWD
- Some of the latest technologies are still lacking
- Not as sporty as advertised (R-Spec? Oh, please...)
- Seat backs don't fold down
