2012 HYUNDAI GENESIS COUPE

The Power Within

A revolution in design, power and performance. With superior handling and a sleek appearance, this new direction from Hyundai is the future of the sport coupe. Discover the Hyundai coupe that rivals the world’s best. Dimensionally, Hyundai apes Infiniti in all key external measurements. At 182.3 inches long with a 111.0-inch wheelbase, the Genesis coupe is shorter by 1.2 inches between the wheels and 0.8 inch overall. With a width of 73.4 inches and height of 54.3, the Genesis coupe is 1.6 inches broader and 0.5 lower.

Interior

DRIVEN BY DESIGN. DESIGNED TO BE DRIVEN.

Reflection-minimizing recessed gauges, generous side bolsters, and a chunky shift knob deftly marry form and function, while the cockpit-like sweep of the dashboard puts everything close at hand so you can keep your eyes on the road and your hands on the wheel. Conveniences like an auto-dimming rearview mirror¹⁰, Bluetooth®, automatic climate control and steering wheel-mounted audio controls aren’t just luxuries—they help you stay focused on the road ahead.

The Genesis Coupe’s AM/FM/CD player includes XM® Satellite Radio³ hardware, as well as iPod®/USB and auxiliary input jacks standard. Controls are placed within easy reach and the system’s display is high on the dash to reduce distraction and eyestrain. Optional audio by Infinity® includes an external

Coupes are known for having rear seats that seem, at best, suited for small children. But the Genesis Coupe’s rear seat is designed for adults. Rather than include a token center seatbelt and pretend that the rear seat can accommodate three passengers, our engineers used the available space to make sure it is comfortable for two. The exterior styling allows the seat to be positioned higher for better comfort, while the large side windows contribute to the sense of spaciousness. The seat is easier to access than you might expect as well, thanks to the large front door openings and a walk-in assist feature on the front passenger seat that moves it forward and out of the way.

Exterior

Our California-based design team evolved the Coupe’s styling over time, looking to the HCD8 and HCD9 concept cars for inspiration.

Their goal: to create a distinctive shape that would hint at the muscle beneath the surface.

The bodyside lines intertwine then boldly highlight the rear fenders to make it immediately clear that this is not merely a front-wheel drive family sedan in disguise. But the design flourishes aren’t just cosmetic; the drop-beltline side windows also enhance the driver’s over-the-shoulder view while also giving rear passengers a better view than most other coupes. The wedge-like profile’s aerodynamic properties were tuned with the vehicle’s high-speed stability in mind and are meant to suggest a predatory animal, coiled on it haunches and ready to strike.

Performance

The Genesis Coupe comes standard with a close-ratio six-speed manual transmission. 2.0T models are available with a five-speed automatic, and 3.8 models can be configured with a high-capacity six-speed automatic designed and engineered by transmission experts at ZF®. This gearbox design is shared with some of the world’s most impressive (and least affordable) performance coupes. For heightened control, automatic transmission–equipped Genesis Coupes have SHIFTRONIC® paddle shifter controls mounted on the steering wheel.

he standard engine is a turbocharged 2.0-liter with Dual Continuously Variable Valve Timing. Its turbocharged design allows for high efficiency in everyday driving with deep reserves of torque just an ankle flex away. And unlike traditional turbo engines, this one does its best work at everyday driving speeds and is designed to run on regular unleaded.
