Interior Design and Special Features
If not for the digitization of "H" logo on the wheel of Genesis, most people probably think you're driving a Lexus. This is especially true in the fully loaded model, which offers a wide range of modern amenities wrapped inside material that feels rich and well built. The cabin has Genesis are clearly aimed at the Japanese luxury flagship, and even the crisp, bright electroluminescent indicators look similar to Lexus.
The controls are well placed to price and cut the entire Genesis team, while the task more complex electronic control systems available - including navigation - takes place on both the touch screen or control panel and screen. We hope you had a stereo preset buttons latter configuration, but it may take some time to click and make the road to your favorite radio station. Multi-speaker Lexicon audio system are also very impressive, a 17-speaker version of one of the best systems found in any car at any price.
Suitable for luxury touring car, the front seats offer plenty of comfort in Genesis as well as driver and passenger for long distances. The same can be said for the rear seats, heaters that offer optional, there is ample head and legroom for rear seat passengers are offered. Rear seats do not fold for extra cargo space, but the pass-through can accommodate long objects that do not fit 15.9 cubic feet trunk.
Driving Impressions
Smooth ride for most of the models 2012, Hyundai Genesis is a good indicator of the intentions of a luxury car, and fortunately is not disconnected from the float, which features some of the other riser cruise. Upon request, the Genesis can be expected to perform evasive maneuvers and a little 'drama. The control is very little feedback, but is quite accurate and suitable for car use. Thanks for your soundproofing, Genesis is also extremely quiet car.
Engine power is also more compatible with other premium brands with Genesis V6 and V8 with a smooth, linear acceleration. The new R-Spec 5.0 is really fast, which corresponds to the acceleration potential of the V8 sports sedans costing thousands more. However, unlike their counterparts in the regular Genesis, the R-Spec suffers a ride on the broken pavement that is firm in the opposite direction to those of the aforementioned sports sedans.
