2014 Hyundai Genesis Has Arrived

In what will surely be a major sales success for Hyundai, the all-new 2014 Genesis sedan has just had its live debut at an event in Seoul, South Korea. It embodies the automaker’s latest styling language, called Fluidic Sculpture, and an overall major step up in both refinement and luxury. The exterior looks great, but we couldn’t help but notice some heavy Aston Rapide influence in the front grille design. Regardless, there are HID headlamps with LED indicators and LED taillamps.

We like it. It’s definitely an improvement over the somewhat bland-looking current model. It’s also lighter thanks to greater use of high-strength lightweight steel. The interior is made from higher grade materials throughout and features a simplified dash design. Storage space is up as well as front and rear headroom and legroom. Wheel sizes range from 17- to 19-inches. Rear-wheel-drive remains standard and all-wheel drive is optional. US powertrain details haven’t been announced, but depending on the market the Genesis comes standard with a 3.0-liter V6 with 257 horsepower.

Other engine options include 3.3- and 3.8-liter V6s with 282 and 315 hp respectively. The top trim 5.0-liter V8 returns with 425 ponies, and all engines come paired to an eight-speed automatic. The V8 will for sure be offered in the US as well as the 3.8 V6. Some new safety features include a Lane Departure Warning System, Lane Keeping Assist, and Rear Cross Traffic Alert. An official US reveal is expected this January at Detroit.

Interested to see how this will trickle in the Coupe model. Especially the weight reduction.
 
Les ventes changerons pas beaucoup.

Ça fait 2 dealer en 1 an qui me dissent que le Genesis sedan est le véhicule qui se vend le moins.

Chaque fois que quelqu'un la regarde quand il réalise qu'elle est pas AWD et que RWD il abandonne l'idée dans la grosse majorité des cas, c'est ce que 2 dealer différents m'on dis, c'est pas une classe de jeune qui vont acheter ça mais des père de famille et papi et quand il regarde la compétition il vois toujours AWD so il se dissent que c'est une ******.
 
Rented a Genesis for 3 weeks while doing the coast in California. What an awesome car, couldn't believe how much I loved it when we returned it. So spacious, powerful, comfortable. Would buy one in a heartbeat! This one looks HAWT.
 
It's a shame people still use the "It's a Hyundai argument". It's honestly a great improvement over the last model, and not to mention the last model was still a pretty decent car.
 
le gens qui sont pret a mettre cette somme sur une voiture, ne sont pas necessairement pret a le mettre sur une voiture de la marque hyundai. c'est juste psychologique. avoir 50-60k a mettre sur une seule voiture, pas sure que j'irais du coter hyundai.

You can get a used 2013 for $30K.

Would never buy one...

Ça doit dépendre des marchés aussi. En Amérique du sud, genre au Brésil, la marque traine pas un passé de Pony pis de d'Excel comme ici et n'a jamais été en compétition avec des Yugo pis des Lada...
 
Strange, the gallery on the Hyundai Canada website shows an entirely different interior for the Equus than what you posted. Either way, if Hyundai has managed to refine the interior of the Genesis sedan to something along those lines then that's great. I always found the interior to be the only weak point of the car.
