The Hyundai Genesis (Korean: 현대 제네시스) is a full-size four-door, five passenger, rear-wheel-drive luxury sedan manufactured and marketed by Hyundai since 2008 and now in its second generation.

Introduced in concept form at the 2007 New York International Auto Show[1] internally designated as the BH model, and with an initial development cost of $533 million[2] — Hyundai began marketing the first generation Genesis worldwide (with the exception of Europe) in 2008, as a "premium sports sedan".[3]

The second generation Genesis (internally designated as model DH) debuted in Seoul, Korea in November 2013[4][5] followed by the 2014 North American International[6] and Toronto auto shows[7] — and is marketed worldwide.

Reflecting Hyundai's first entry into the luxury market segment,[2] the name Genesis means beginning or origin.

Development and design

Hyundai Genesis Concept

Introduced in March, 2007 as the "Concept Genesis", the sedan was designed by Hyundai as a "progressive interpretation of the modern rear-wheel drive sports sedan".[8] Hyundai conceived the idea for the Genesis in 2003. The body design took three years and the total cost of the program was $500 million over a development period of 23 months. Reliability testing ran for 800,000 miles.[9]

Hyundai reportedly benchmarked the BMW 5-Series (E60) sedan during the Genesis' development; their press release indicates the Genesis body in white exceeds the BMW in torsional rigidity by 14%.[10] The production Genesis sedan received a five-star crash rating in every category from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.[11][12] Hyundai markets the Genesis as offering "the performance of a BMW 5-Series and the interior packaging of a 7-Series at the price of a 3-Series."[13]

Reviewing the Genesis 4.6 at its US introduction, automotive journalist Dan Neil called the absence of brand emblems at the front of the Genesis "a move that subverts the grammar of luxury,"[14] noting "I'm far too much of a romantic to buy this car. I like a brand with provenance and I'm willing to pay for it. For more hard-nosed, practical types, the Genesis presents an all-but-irresistible case of value per dollar. And they won't be wrong."[14]

Drivetrains

The Tau V8 is Hyundai's first domestic V8 engine. For the 2008–09 model years, the 4.6 L engine produced 375 horsepower (280 kW) at 6,500 rpm and 333 lb⋅ft (451 N⋅m) at 3,500 rpm.[17] Introduced as a midyear change for the 2010 model, the 4.6 L V8 now produces 385 horsepower (287 kW) at 6,500 rpm, with no change in the torque output: 333 lb-ft at 3,500 rpm.[19] These figures are achieved using premium fuel. The V8 can also run on regular unleaded, in which case the 2010–11 model produces 378 horsepower (282 kW) and 324 lb-ft. For the V8 model, Hyundai has reported 0–60 mph times of less than 6 seconds.[10][20] Car and Driver reports a 0–60 mph time of 5.3 seconds[21] while Motor Trend reports a 0–60 mph time of 5.5 seconds in their October 2008 issue.

The Lambda 3.8 L V6 is available in Korean and North American models. In Korean spec, the engine produces 306 horsepower (228 kW). In US spec this engine produces 290 hp (216 kW) at 6,200 rpm and 264 lb⋅ft (358 N⋅m) at 4,500 rpm.[17] Motor Trend reports a 0–60 mph time of 5.9 seconds.[22]

The Lambda 3.3 L V6 is available in some markets, producing 264 horsepower (197 kW).

In North America, the V8-powered Genesis features a standard ZF 6HP26 6-speed automatic transmission from ZF Friedrichshafen (identical to the unit found in the BMW 5-Series), with the base V6 models receiving the 6-speed automatic Aisin transmission shared with the Hyundai Veracruz. Each of the engines is designed for regular grade gasoline.

Marketing

As part of the US product launch, Hyundai Motor America and Carbonfund.org unveiled the Genesis Forest Project at the 2008 Los Angeles Auto Show, to offset the entire first year of emissions for all 2009 Hyundai Genesis sedans sold in the United States. The Genesis Forest Project was retroactively applied to all 2009 Genesis sedan sales, which began in June, and continue through the end of the year.[28]

The Premium Navigation Package replaces the previous Premium Plus Package which most notably upgraded to 18-inch alloy wheels, still a part of this new package.

For 2010 the 4.6 Genesis was available in only one trim, with all packages made standard, including the Technology package. The car also received a slightly uprated engine as a midyear change, with the 4.6 litre V8 producing 385 horsepower (287 kW) at 6500 rpm and an identical 333 lb-ft of torque at 3500 rpm.[19]

Equipment

Marketing

A full production version went on sale in South Korea on January 8, 2008 in Hyundai's home market of South Korea. Notably, the Korean market Genesis does not carry a Hyundai badge, only the 'Genesis' emblem.[3][38]

Hyundai has come under criticism from Korean consumers over the price discrepancy between the US and Korean markets. Yonhap reports the Genesis costs "58.3 million won (US$57,000) in Korea, whereas in the U.S. it sells for $32,000." This has led to dumping allegations[39] and a growing market in reimported Genesises by gray market dealers. Korean regulators are currently investigating whether Hyundai has abused its 75% domestic market share.[40] However, Hyundai cars in South Korea have more available options and that may be the reason for the mark-ups.[citation needed]

Marketed as the Hyundai Genesis in the US and Canada, the vehicle is the largest, most powerful car that Hyundai has ever marketed there before the launch of the Equus.[3]

The Genesis sedan went on sale in the US in August 2008. In its first 5 months of sales, the Genesis under-performed in the competitive US market selling only 6,167 units. According to Hyundai, Genesis saw sales of just 1,297 units in its first full sales month and the company expected to move around 8000 units from the US showrooms by the end of 2008.[41] In 2009, the Genesis sold 21,889 units in the U.S. (sedan and coupe combined).[42]

There had been internal discussions within Hyundai about creating a separate brand to feature the Genesis sedan as well as the soon to come Equus sedan in North America, but due to prohibitive costs and potential delays the Genesis and Equus will still remain tagged with the Hyundai brand.[43]

Sold as Hyundai Rohens in China, the unveiling was at the Beijing International Automotive Exhibition, 2008.[44] Sales began in August 2008.[2]

The Genesis was not initially marketed in Europe because of Lexus's failure to thrive in Europe.[45] According to a September 2007 article in Tradingmarkets.com, " in the eyes of European purchasers of luxury vehicles, Hyundai sedans have been perceived as having a poor image and unreliable durability compared with its rivals."[46] "The planned launch of Genesis comes at a time when Hyundai is striving to shake off its poor-brand image, known for generous warranties and low prices."[46]

The latest Genesis will be sold in Europe, priced at about 65000 euro in Germany.[citation needed]

The Genesis is sold in Latin America in Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Colombia, Chile and Peru, offering versions with engines of 3.3 and 3.8 liters, and in Brazil only with the 3.8 liters engine.

Australia was the first country in the region to get the Genesis sedan, arriving in November 2014.

Coupe version

Main article: Hyundai Genesis Coupe
