Hyundai has said repeatedly that it would not, she can not put a V-8 from the Genesis Coupe, but the 2012 Genesis sedan has the best reason yet for the company to do so. (Even if it is to put in the trunk, as Rhys Millen has already done.) With the new Hyundai 5.0-liter V-8 between its wings, would cut a liter for the response to the Korean liter Ford GT Mustang 5, 0, and references to Vanilla Ice can develop into jokes rice vanilla. Hyundai has yet to express interest in this kind of activation.
Although 5.0 is the sexiest voice in order to update the list, the important thing is the suspension tuned. Since it was introduced a couple of Genesis Silicea around on floppy, indifferent handling. The balance is much improved for 2012, with smoothing the ride and the machine is being a bit 'more difficult, even when cornering, thanks to 1 mm larger rear stabilizer bar (18 vs. 17). Also last year, the car tends to hit big divots and lumps, and away from the bottom as if it were used as Slinkys the springs are gone, and errors much less its way into the cabin.
15 percent increase in capacity of 3.8 (15 percent), getting closer to-385 horsepower, 4.6-liter V-8, which now exceeds the production of six ponies 52-43 less than last year. Basic Car Engine Yankees much later, and spice to-date. 5.0 replaces 4.6-liter base engine of Equus in 2012, and we would not be surprised to see a list of options as well dispose of Genesis 4.6. The new 5.0-liter is really just 4.6 with a bore greater, 96 mm against 92-so Hyundai is not to throw out a little 'R & D dollar closed lower.
You just want to read the R-Spec, we know. As mentioned previously, 5.0 and 4.6 are closely related. Compared to the smaller progenitor, R Spec-V-8 more direct injection, which allows a higher compression ratio of 11.5:1 instead of 10.4:1 4.6 's. That's it. Otherwise, it's the same engine, which carries more than 4.6 variable valve timing of both intake and exhaust cams. The mileage is only slightly affected, with a 5.0 16/25-mpg EPA to gain votes, 1 to 4.6 mpg in both city and highway numbers.
At 5.0 is a bit sharp, needs 6400 rpm, and gas to produce all the premium HP 429 and 5000 rpm to hit the 376 lb-ft of torque max. At mid-range and just off the line, it does not feel that much spunkier 4.6. But at higher speeds, both road and automobile as Germany grows best performance Q-ships. Hyundai expects from 0 to 60 km / h to take just 5.1 seconds, and we expect a sprint of 4.8 seconds. While the working groups of the "5.0", we expected a little more rumble Woodward exhaust pipes, engine of the moderate voice is not living in the same objective Germanic. "
Apart from the big V-8, R-Spec models is different from Genesis with the suspension settings and a different brake. Another 1 mm rear anti-roll bar blow-diameter supposed to throw a little more, but have not had the opportunity to launch the car on foot to check that aggressive. What we found is that the moderately higher rates in the spring just to deny the other 2012 Genesis advances in management for travelers to rediscover some of the other models flintiness fortunately left behind. The larger wheels of 19 inches on the R-Spec-could also be part of the blame. It would probably be happy with just the engine. Well, bigger brakes. Six-cylinder cars will be 13.0-inch front rotors compared to 4.6 last year's model, while the two V-8 cars now have front discs 13.6 inches.
Finally, Genesis does not receive the same color palette as other big lush intro 2012 Hyundai Accent, also see the R-Spec is available in colors other than black, less black and gray (Black Black Pearl, Titanium Gray Metallic, Metallic Platinum).
Regardless of the engine, the 2012 Genesis is an automatic eight reports. Unlike many other car manufacturers, which use transmissions from outside suppliers, Hyundai has decided to design their own slushbox. Maybe he should not have. Eight speeds allow for a balance between the economy and the shell, but the transfer is slow. As the scaled-up and pull, and we were able to calculate the seconds before getting what we wanted after stomping through the kickdown switch. All cars are the gateway to manual control, but when the transfer will take longer to answer the fourth estranged wife, is difficult to treat. On the other hand, the acquisition of Genesis Serenity highway, so everyone, including the R-Spec-buyers might not notice, and appreciate some 'fuel economy advantage. Cars and the V-6 is rated at 19 mpg city, 29 highway (up to 18/27 last year), which is 4.6 in the 17/26 (to 17/25) and R-Spec is 16 / 25.
With all the new things, the base of the Genesis 2012 shows an increase of $ 1,200 in prizes from last year's $ 33 850 to $ 35.050. Given the rotation of the improvement and increase of power, which is reasonable. And, as before, there is a huge list of standard equipment: leather seats, keyless entry and start system, heated front power seats, stereo with seven speakers and satellite radio and USB jacks 3.5 mm auxiliary input, and a spacious seat in the back. The 4.6 on the label of $ 45.350 (an increase of $ 1,500 last year), but includes $ 8,800 for packages that are optional on 3.8 points of note include a sunroof, a power tilt and telescoping steering wheel, a rear sunshade, a stereo Lexicon 17-speaker, navigation, rearview camera, adaptive cruise control, a (refreshing harmless) of track from the warning system, cooled driver's seat and heated rear seats . The other two grand, buyers can find their way into an R-Spec.
You better really want, because they have visual cues of the R-Spec are rare in the headlights of a single dark chrome inserts, 19-inch wheels, cards trunk and floor mats.
As we found when we contrasted the Genesis to its competitors, the cars should fear most are not of pure German race, but by mid-premium conventional car, which she carefully routes. As before, there are a lot of history suggests that it is much more expensive than it is. Now, however, full-sized luxury Hyundai is not only rich on paper: it feels rather than from behind the wheel.
