bigbigcar.com First Drive: Hyundai Genesis V6



Hyundai’s new flagship sedan is its most sophisticated car to date and a worthy contender to the luxury car establishment...

wow wow wow! hands down! para siyang teana....but better exterior

how much is the entry price of hyundai genesis officially, 2.8m is too much for a luxury sedan of hyundai... camry is around 1.5m-1.7m teana is 1.7m accord i don't know...then genesis is 2.8m???

It's actually not a Camry or Accord-class vehicle. It's a size or two larger and is targetted straight at luxury car buyers who would otherwise buy an Audi A6, BMW 5-series, Lexus GS or Mercedes Benz E-Class.

It's a full-featured rear-wheel drive luxury sedan... priced the same as compact luxury sedans.

I want the V8. Hyundai also hinted at a supercharged V8. I want that too.

Hahaha... Hyundai fan-boy in the house! You know, it's a pretty good car. The handling isn't quite up there with the best, but it's still great for a Hyundai... and as a highway warrior, absolutely no complaints... great V6.

I just wonder how bad the mileage will be on these big engines... The projected driving range from the on-board computer was ungodly pessimistic... or was it reading low because of the way we were driving it?

The gas mileage of the V8 is 17/25mpg (city/hwy) with a combined gas mileage of 22.1mpg. The gas mileage of the V6 is bound to be better.

Also, I can't remember where I saw it. But, one of the US car magazines pegged 0-60mph of the 290hp V6 at 6.3 sec.

i saw this thing about a week ago while looking for a used tiburon. it is huge. i like the exterior except the grille. for me, it didnt fit or an emblem somewhere may work better. i sat in and checked out the interior as well. the interior is well designed, better than the azera. great car overall, but im curious if it sells esp nearly $40K price tag for a v6.

Automatic, is it? Man... that's quick for something so big.
