Hyundai Genesis 2010

2010 Hyundai Genesis
The 2010 Hyundai Genesis sedan should see no major changes following its introduction for the 2009 model year. Hyundai's largest car offers two engines: a 290-hp 3.8-liter V6 for the 3.8; and a 375-hp 4.6-liter V8 for the 4.6. A new base model with a 3.3-liter V6 may join the sedan lineup sometime in the model year. Due later in model-year 2010 is the Genesis coupe. It's based on a shortened sedan platform and will be powered by a new turbocharged 4-cylinder or the 3.8-liter V6 shared with the sedan. Power estimates are at least 200 hp for the 4-cylinder and more than 300 for the V6. All sedan engines team with a 6-speed automatic transmission that has a manual shift gate. The coupes will offer a 6-speed manual as well as an automatic. Available safety features include ABS, traction control, antiskid system, curtain side airbags, front side airbags, and rear side airbags. Among the available sedan features are heated and cooled driver seat, wireless cell phone link, a navigation system with hard drive for storing digital music files, rearview camera, and front- and rear-obstacle detection. The Genesis sedan has a knob in the center console that governs audio, navigation, and other functions. Adaptive cruise control is available. This evaluation is based on preview test drives of the 2009 Genesis sedan.
