2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe

Hyundai introduces the significantly redesigned Genesis Coupe for 2013. The Genesis Coupe now sports more aggressive coupe styling, complemented by improved interior materials and design.

Both 4-cylinder and V6 engines benefit from significant technology enhancements, with the 3.8-liter, 348-hp V6 engine receiving sophisticated direct-injection technology and the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine upgrading to a more precise twin-scroll turbocharger and larger intercooler. Automatic transmissions for these two models now have 8-speeds, with paddle-shift SHIFTRONIC manual-shifting capability.

The refreshed Genesis Coupe strikes a more menacing demeanor, with an aggressively redesigned front fascia, grille, headlights, LED daytime running lights, fog lights and hood with heat extractor cues. The side view reveals new, aggressive 18- and 19-inch alloy wheel designs with deeper dimensional sculpting.

The traditional rear-drive sport coupe proportions remain, with a long wheelbase and short front and rear overhangs producing a classic wedge-like profile. Enlarged openings in the front fascia allow for better engine breathing along with a more aggressive look. Dual asymmetrical exhaust tips integrated with the blackout rear diffuser treatment complete the performance message from the rear.

While all Genesis Coupe models offer a true rear-drive sport driving experience, the high-performance Genesis Coupe R-Spec and Track models raise the bar even higher with differentiated, track-tuned suspension calibrations. The R-Spec/Track suspension features both firmer front spring rates and rear spring rates with matched damper rates.

The 2013 Genesis Coupe interior has been enhanced with distinctive, upscale features and design cues. The instrument cluster now features an electroluminescent gauge cluster for premium ambience and superior readability.
