The 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe is a rear building sports coupe with two performance-oriented engine - 212 horsepower (est.), 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder and an aluminum high-end, 306 hp (est) DOHC 3.8-liter V6. Hyundai Genesis Coupe will join the range of Hyundai in the spring of 2009.
Following the introduction earlier this year of the Genesis rear-drive sedan sport, Hyundai Genesis Coupe is the most dynamic performance car from Hyundai ever, and the second consecutive all-new model from Hyundai appealing directly to car enthusiasts. Hyundai Genesis Coupe uses the same flexible propulsion architecture originally developed for the Genesis sport sedan.
"We believe that the entry-level Genesis Coupe 2.0t, with its unique combination of rear-wheel drive and four-cylinder turbo, offers an interesting alternative to existing front-wheel drive sports coupe," said John Krafcik, director of product development and planning strategic, Hyundai Motor America. "From the 3.8-liter version of Genesis Coupe takes driving to an even higher level, rivaling the high performance capabilities, such as the Infiniti G37 coupe."
DESIGN PROCESS

"The mission of the Genesis Coupe was to create a pure performance car with a design that will capture the imagination of hardcore automotive enthusiasts," said Joel Piaskowski, chief designer at the Hyundai Design Center in Irvine, Calif. "With its aggressive look from any angle, I think we have been able to do so."
Hyundai Genesis Coupe is also undeniably linked to several Hyundai concept cars. The powerful curves, undulating beltline, surface detail and lines "Z" side come straight from HCD9 Talus and HCD8 sports coupe concepts.
The Hyundai Genesis Coupe rocker draws close to the ground forming the body very thick and the daylight opening thin, allowing the wheels to be slammed up into bulging wings. To complete the aggressive sports car look, the depth between the fenders and the greenhouse has been maximized.
Large openings in the front fascia allow the engine to breathe better. The dual exhaust tips integrated into the rear fascia with surrounding blackout repeat the design of the instrument panel graphics.
Hyundai Genesis Coupe rides on standard alloy wheels or optional 18-inch 19-inch wheels, both offering a bold stance and aggressive handling.
