2011 Genesis Sedan

"THE MOST APPEALING MIDSIZE PREMIUM CAR OF 2010"
Nobody was looking for Hyundai to build a luxury car that would challenge the automotive elite. But we did. Nobody expected us to benchmark the
industry's best, then apply the art and science needed to meet those marks. But we did. Nobody thought we'd charm the pants off a jury of North
America's most esteemed automotive journalists, or be named "The Most Appealing Midsize Premium Car" in 2009 by J.D. Power and
Associates.(1) But we did. And by doing what few people expected of us, we now find ourselves as a car company that a lot of people
are starting to think about in a whole new way.It's 2011. Welcome to Hyundai.



"PUTS POWER DOWN LIKE A BMW AND RIDES LIKE A LEXUS"

You don't half-heartedly enter the luxury performance sedan arena. Not if you
expect to earn the respect of drivers whose passions are stoked by the mere
mention of such criteria as power-to-weight ratios, torque curves, and skid pad
results.

Your all-aluminum V8 had better churn out 375 horsepower. Ours does. Your
zero-to-sixty
sprint had better be over in under six seconds. Ours takes 5.3
seconds
.(2) Your skid pad results need to surpass 0.80 lateral g's. Ours pulls 0.87.
Your passenger cabin had better be roomy. Ours bests every competitor in its
segment in front head room and leg room. And your technology can't be a
step behind. Ours includes the use of fiber optics, adaptive front lighting,
5-link front and rear suspension with Amplitude Selective Damping,
and audio engineering by Lexicon.

So compare Genesis on the objective measures that get you a seat at the luxury sedan table. And if you find, as Road & Track did, that Genesis "puts
power down like a BMW and rides like a Lexus,"(3) then by all means, move on to more subjective criteria. Like the aroma of a leather-trimmed
interior
. The sensations of a driver's seat that can cool or warm. And the sound of an engine as it reaches the sweet spot of its torque curve.





DESIGNED TO MOVE YOU.


With a drag coefficient of just 0.27, Genesis achieves a remarkably efficient
aerodynamic profile that aids fuel economy, enhances handling stability and
reduces wind noise. But our designers wanted the shape of Genesis to be more
than a technical achievement. They wanted its elegantly chiseled forms to convey
strength and power. 18-inch Hyper Silver wheels produce an active sense of
movement, even when standing still. A distinctive waterfall grill creates a
powerful
presence that marks its every detail. The result is a striking
design
aesthetic - an interpretation of the luxury sedan that is both
progressive and timeless.





ROOM FOR EVERYTHING BUT ARGUMENT.


With a total interior volume of 125.3 cubic feet, Genesis offers more room than a
Bentley Arnage
and a BMW 750i. But room alone does not define a luxury performance
sedan. Detail does. And Genesis is nothing if not meticulously detailed. The soft feel
and precisely stitched seams of its premium leather seats. The tailored leather-
wrapped dash
gracefully arcing beneath the windshield. The handsome woodgrain
trim
with metal accents. And the advanced technology that brings it all together for a
sublime driving experience
.

PERFORMANCE


AN EXTRAORDINARY 375-HP V8.


What has greater horsepower than a Lexus GS 460, an Audi A8 and an Infiniti
M45
? The 4.6-liter, all-aluminum V8 engine in the Hyundai Genesis. With 375 horsepower
at 6,500 rpm and 333 lb-ft of torque at just 3,500 rpm, it's an engine that delivers the
broad power band demanded by enthusiast drivers. It also gives Genesis an impressive
10.8 lb/hp power-to-weight ratio. And here's a nice bonus: It can safely run on both
premium and regular fuel
while still delivering a rush of adrenaline when you plant
your right foot.






MEET YOU AT THE FINISH LINE.

With 333 lb.-ft. of torque and 375 horses champing at the bit, the Hyundai Genesis 4.6 has surprised more than a few venerable luxury cars off the line. That's because its V8 Tau engine
helps propel the stately Genesis sedan from zero to 60 in a jaw-dropping 5.3 seconds. And
while that may be impressive in its own right, it becomes even more so when you consider the
equally astounding price disparities.

IT'LL STOP ITSELF IN ITS TRACKS.

Lots of carmakers talk about their zero to 60. Few, however, talk about their 70 to zero.
In the end, the need to stop quickly is more critical than the need to start quickly. With
high carbon content brakes and myriad braking features, the Genesis 4.6 stops firmly and
safely in a shorter distance than the 2008 BMW 550i(4). By a significant margin, too.
It can mean the difference between hitting something and staying safe.






      
 ADVANCED 6-SPEED TRANSMISSIONS REAR-WHEEL DRIVE ARCHITECTURE 209-HP 3.8L V6 ENGINE
Both V6 and V8 Genesis models feature a
6-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC® and lock-up torque converter
for improved highway economy. The V6 has an
Aisin® unit, while the V8 is mated to a ZF®
model - two of the most respected
brands in the world. (5)
Rear-wheel drive allowed our engineers to place
the front wheels farther forward and help Genesis achieve a nearly ideal 52/48 weight distribution.
That's why the Genesis exhibits exceptionally
neutral handling characteristics and linear
steering performance.

The V6 Genesis models offers 290 horsepower
and 264 lb-ft of torque - respectable figures in
any company. But it's what that power feels
like that's most impressive. Dual Continuously
Variable Valve Timing, multi-point fuel injection
and a variable intake system help optimize
engine response at low and high rpm. A silent,
maintenance-free timing chain ensures the V6
engine's power pours out smooth and quiet.
And a ULEV classification means the Genesis
V6 produces ultra-low emissions.
 




EXCEPTIONAL TORSIONAL RIGIDITY

One of the engineering breakthroughs of Genesis is the ability of its body structure
to reconcile the conflicting agendas of ride and handling. With 12-14% more
torsional rigidity than a BMW 5 Series or a Lexus LS, Genesis can deliver
laser-like steering and handling poise - while at the same time affording its
occupants a ride of consummate composure.

PASSENGER SEATS, MADE FOR ACTUAL PASSENGERS.


There's a feeling of dread that usually comes with realizing you've been relegated to the backseat of a car.
Just the thought of it makes some people's knees ache. So, when it came to designing the seats in the
Genesis, the interior engineers at Hyundai were determined to create real comfort for real adult passengers.
First off, the rear seats are orchestra style, which means they sit higher than those in front, allowing rear
passengers to keep their legs at an angle close to 90 degrees.





SOUND JUDGMENT.

We all know that a quiet beep can be more annoying than a loud violin concerto. That acoustic fact is why
Genesis engineers didn't just dramatically reduce the sound level inside the cabin, they also made sure the
sounds we did allow wouldn't dig into your serenity.

Let's start with this fact: the interior of the Genesis is incredibly quiet. In fact, certified testing showed it to
be as quiet as the flagship Mercedes S-Class.(4)







ERGONOMICS GOES BEYOND MERE FINGER GROOVES.


A door handle with a comfortable grip is not enough to claim ergonomic superiority. After all, this is a car,
not a  coffee mug. It's about design that starts with the driver and builds from there. It's about the
Genesis blowing the doors off what human-centered design can mean.








 

 


 


 PROXIMITY REAR CAMERA WITH PARKING SENSORS
 ADAPTIVE FRONT LIGHTING SYSTEM
 Genesis comes standard with Proximity Key.
Keep this key comfortably in your pocket or
purse, and you can still lock and unlock the
doors with just the push of a button
on the
door handle. You won't need to insert a key to
start Genesis, either. Its engine comes to life
with push-button start.



 With a rear camera and a series of sensors in
both the front and rear bumpers, Genesis drivers
are alerted to potential hazards when
backing out of parking spaces or driveways
.
If the system senses the presence of objects
such as a light pole or another car, it sounds an
intermittent warning beep within the cabin that
increases in frequency the closer you get to the
object. The system's effectiveness is augmented
by the rear-view camera, which allows the driver
to see below eye level when backing up.
 Imagine you're driving on a curvy road at
night. Wouldn't you like a split-second more to
see what's coming up ahead: A pothole? A deer?
A fallen rock? That's the idea behind our adaptive
headlights. This lighting system can adjust the
headlight's beam to match the vehicle's
steering angle. The superior illumination
around turns alerts you to objects or
potential road hazards sooner, for
improved safety when driving at night.
 





SEIZE CONTROL EFFORTLESSLY

The Multimedia Controller lets you command a wide variety of functions, including
audio, navigation and telecommunication. It also allows you to access the Driver
Information System, where you customize a myriad of settings to your liking, from
moving the seat and steering wheel for easy entry, to whether door locks "click"
when they engage.






SAFETY


ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL: WHY IT'S IMPORTANT
"The most important safety feature since seat belts."

         


 TRACTION CONTRL SYSTEM ANTI-LOCKING BRAKING SYSTEM ELECTRONIC BRAKE-FORCE DISTRIBUTION BRAKE ASSIST
 Traction Control keeps the rear
wheels from spinning, eliminating
fishtailing to help keep the car
under control
. Oddly enough, this
slowing of tires actually helps
you accelerate faster
.

 ABS pumps the brakes when you
brake hard to prevent the wheels
from locking up
.


 EBD works with ABS and applies
brake pressure properly to help keep
the car stable while braking
.


Research found that in the event of
an emergency, people often don't
press the brakes hard enough.
Brake Assist recognizes these
situations and automatically gives
that extra effort.
 



Eight airbags. Five stars. A singular commitment.

Genesis comes standard with some of the most advanced safety technologies
available. From eight airbags(11) to an ultra-high-strength steel body, to passive safety
systems that help protect you in the event of an accident, to active systems that help
you avoid them in the first place, Genesis was engineered as if lives depended on it.
Because they do.In government crash tests, Hyundai Genesis received five stars,
the highest safety rating. These included tests of crash performance in frontal
collision, side impact and rollover situations.
