2009 Hyundai Genesis
All-new luxury car is super
smooth.
By Kirk Bell
Base Price (MSRP) - $32,250
As Tested (MSRP) - $42,000
Overview
The 2009 Hyundai Genesis is a totally new luxury sport sedan. With its rear-wheel drive and available V8
power, the Genesis aspires to the BMW 5 Series, Lexus GS, Mercedes-Benz E-Class, and Infiniti M, but
is priced more like American competitors such as the Chrysler 300 and Pontiac G8.
The Genesis seats five and is offered with V6 or V8 engines. Hyundai is best known here for the
econoboxes it sold when it first came to America, but the Korean automaker has been moving upmarket
for several years. The Genesis represents its biggest leap yet and is the company's most expensive and
most luxurious car.
Inside, the Genesis is nicely appointed, with chrome accents, wood and aluminum trim, and soft-touch
materials. Easy-to-read electroluminescent gauges greet the driver, and the available navigation system
includes voice activation and a multimedia interface that is easier to use than those from most luxury
manufacturers. An iPod interface is standard, and customers can choose a 17-speaker audio system that
has 7.1 surround and sounds great. Room in the front and rear seats is excellent.
The Genesis marks the debut of Hyundai's first V8, a 4.6-liter dual overhead cam engine with 375
horsepower. The V8 provides plenty of smooth, willing power and gets decent fuel economy. Also
available is a 290-hp 3.8-liter V6. The V6 offers enough pep for most needs and has the benefit of an
extra couple mpg. Both engines run quietly and are mated to smooth-shifting six-speed automatic
transmissions with manual shiftgates.
Hyundai touts the Genesis as a sport sedan, with a rigid rear-wheel-drive structure and advanced five-link
front and rear suspensions. On twisty roads, it performs well, with a generally nimble feel and a fairly flat
disposition through corners. Of the two models, the V6 rotates easier through turns, while the V8 is more
prone to push. The V8 model, on the other hand benefits from electrohydraulic steering that keeps the
boost up in the tightest slaloms, while the V6's hydraulic steering can bind in quick changes of direction.
The Genesis rides well, ironing out most bumps with little effect on passengers. It doesn't float or wallow
like other Hyundais, but the ride can get bouncy over humps and ruts at highway speeds. On the whole,
the Genesis is a legitimate sport sedan, but it's not as agile as top performers, such as the BMW 5 Series.
Both Genesis models are fine values that deliver fine handling, a smooth ride, and willing power. They
also have plenty of interior room, with nicely appointed interiors. Though not quite up to the high
standards of the European and Japanese luxury cars the Genesis aspires to, it is viable and cheaper
alternative to those cars and a better appointed option versus large American sedans.
Model Lineup
The 2009 Hyundai Genesis is offered in two models. The 3.8 model has a 3.8-liter V6 that makes 290
horsepower and comes with a six-speed automatic transmission. The 4.6 model has Hyundai's new 4.6liter Tau V8. It puts out 375 hp (with premium fuel, 368 with regular fuel) and also comes with a six-speed
automatic. Both transmissions have a manual shiftgate.
Genesis 3.8 ($32,250) comes standard with leather upholstery; dual-zone automatic climate control;
tilt/telescoping, leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio controls; cruise control; heated front seats;
eight-way power-adjustable driver's seat with lumbar adjustment; four-way power-adjustable passenger
seat; heated power mirrors; power windows and door locks; remote keyless access and starting; sevenspeaker AM/FM/CD/MP3 stereo; XM satellite radio; auxiliary audio input jack; iPod interface; Bluetooth
wireless cell phone link; auto-dimming rearview mirror; compass; universal garage door opener;
automatic headlights; theft-deterrent system; fog lights; and P225/55R17 tires on alloy wheels.
Options for the 3.8 include a Premium Package ($2000) that adds a sunroof; leather-wrapped dash and
door trim; power tilt/telescoping steering wheel; memory for the driver's seat, exterior mirrors and steering
wheel; Lexicon 15-speaker audio system; six-disc CD changer; automatic windshield defogger; rainsensing wipers; and a power rear sunshade. A Premium Plus Package ($3000) has the same equipment,
plus P235/50R18 tires on alloy wheels with chrome inserts. The Technology Package ($4000) includes
front- and rear park assist, navigation system, heated/cooled front seats, 17-speaker Lexicon audio
system with 7.1 surround, HD radio, XM NavTraffic with one-year subscription, 40-gigabyte hard drive,
rearview camera, and adaptive, auto-leveling xenon headlights.
Genesis 4.6 ($37,250) adds a power tilt/telescoping wood and leather-wrapped steering wheel; leatherwrapped dash and door trim; memory for the driver's seat, mirrors and steering wheel; sunroof; Lexicon
15-speaker audio system with six-disc CD changer; rain-sensing wipers; power rear sunshade; autodimming exterior mirrors; and P235/50R18 tires. The only option is the Technology Package ($4000).
Safety features include dual front airbags, front and rear side airbags, curtain side airbags, tire-pressure
monitor, electronic active front head restraints, antilock brakes with brake assist and electronic brakeforce distribution, traction control, and electronic stability control. Front and rear park assist and a
rearview camera come with the Technology Package.
Walkaround
The Genesis is based on an all-new rear-wheel-drive architecture.
(This same structure will host an upcoming two-door Genesis coupe.)
The Genesis is sized similar to the Pontiac G8, both in length and
wheelbase, and is about six inches shorter than the Chrysler 300.
On the outside, the Genesis looks like the lovechild of a BMW 5 Series
and a Mercedes-Benz E Class. Hyundai says the design is "athletic, not so aggressive, assertive, but not
polarizing." We agree, though, we feel a little more flavor might draw more customers.
Up front, the trapezoidal grille is reminiscent of a Mercedes design, but instead of rounded headlights, it's
flanked by more modern eye-slit headlights. Fog lights are standard on the lower fascia, which also
features a large lower air intake. Halogen headlights are standard, and the Technology Package includes
auto-leveling high-intensity discharge adaptive headlights that point into turns to improve night-time vision
on dark corners.
Character lines echoing the shape of the grille flow into the hood and resolve themselves at the front
pillars. The rest of the car has more angular shapes like a BMW instead of the softer, rounder shapes of a
Mercedes. The greenhouse is practically identical to that of the 5 Series, right down to the dogleg shape
of the rear pillars. Ornamentation along the flanks is minimal, with only an upper beltline that flows from
the front wheel openings to the taillights and a kickout at the bottom of the doors. Standard 17-inch
wheels fill the wheelwells nicely, and the available 18s look even better.
At the rear, the Genesis has the high trunk line that was so controversial for BMW five years ago but has
now come into use by several manufacturers. A lower fascia flanked by dual exhaust gives a hint to the
Genesis's sporty character.
Interior Features
Nowhere are the Genesis's luxury intentions more clear than in the
cockpit. From the driver's seat, customers are greeted with tight
tolerances, chrome accents, and numerous soft-touch materials,
including a leather-wrapped dash, a feature usually reserved for much
more expensive vehicles. While the materials are certainly nice, the
rounded shape of the dash isn't as appealing or modern as the best
from Europe.
The driver is presented with electroluminescent gauges with white
numbers on a black background and blue accents. The gauges are easy to see and read. There is a
small, rectangular display between the two main gauges (speedo and tach) that shows trip computer
information.
The base setup includes a small screen at the top of the center stack that shows radio and climate
information. Below that are the radio controls and at the bottom of the rounded center stack are 10
buttons devoted to climate control. We would prefer the three easy-to-use knobs that many
manufacturers are using these days. The CD slot sits below the center stack and below it is a small cubby
to fit CDs and the like.
The center console has an ashtray-type bin below the center stack and behind that is an aluminum plate
that houses the shift knob. Two cupholders sit behind the shifter, and the center console bin is big enough
to carry most of the small bits we carry day to day, though a flat, rubberized tray in front of the shifter
would help, too. More small items storage can be found in fold-out pockets on each door.
The navigation option features a central multimedia controller for the radio, navigation system, iPod
interface, trip computer, Bluetooth phone, and settings in the Driver Information System. It uses a large
rotating knob and six buttons. Compared to BMW's iDrive, the Hyundai system is simpler to use, but it still
adds a couple steps to simple tasks like programming a radio station. The iPod interface works well, too,
displaying songs, artists or playlists on the dashboard screen. However, returning to a previous menu
always starts you over alphabetically. It would be nice if the system returned to the last spot you visited.
Nonetheless, other manufacturers would do well to study the simplicity of Hyundai's multimedia interface.
The Technology Package includes a 40-gigabyte hard drive to hold music files and navigation map
information. Songs can be loaded from CDs or through a USB interface.
Front and rear head and leg room are plentiful. Only tall rear passengers will have a complaint, and
probably only with head room. The rear center passenger will also have to deal with the driveshaft hump
as well as a seat hump, but four passengers should ride with ease. The front seats are comfortable, but
sit up higher than we'd prefer and they don't have all that many adjustments for a car with this level of
luxury. Getting in and out is easy.
The trunk is deep, with 15.9 cubic feet of cargo room, but it is a bit compromised by the lack of split
folding rear seats. Hyundai opted against them for structural reasons. For some, this may be a deal
breaker, but at least a rear pass-through is provided.
Driving Impressions
Hyundai says it benchmarked the BMW 5 Series, Infiniti M, MercedesBenz E-Class, and Lexus GS when developing the Genesis. Advanced
five-link front and rear suspensions and a rigid rear-drive unibody
structure give the Genesis the engineering to compete with those cars.
But this is Hyundai's first sport sedan, so is it possible that the Genesis
is a match for such lofty competition?
Hyundai gave journalists the opportunity to drive the Genesis on both twisty two-lane California roads and
on a road course to test the handling. They were even kind enough to provide a Mercedes-Benz E Class
for comparison. The Genesis proved to be a capable handler, a viable match for the Mercedes. By
comparison, the Genesis feels a bit more numb and doesn't have as much steering feel, but it stays flatter
through turns.
The Genesis 3.8 V6 is lighter and has a 52/48 weight balance (compared to 53/47 for the 4.6 V8), making
it easier to rotate through high-speed corners than the Genesis 4.6 or the Mercedes.
That's all pretty darn good news, but the Genesis lacks the balance, agility, and direct steering of the
BMW 5 Series. Hyundai shouldn't be ashamed, though. BMW builds the finest handling sport sedans in
the world.
The Genesis is equipped with Amplitude Selective Dampers, which are basically two shocks in one.
These multi-vein shocks have one mode for small, high-frequency bumps and ripples and another mode
for the larger motions shocks usually deal with. Hyundai says they improve ride comfort, optimize road
surface contact, and increase body and wheel control. On the road, they help the Genesis provide a
smooth, quiet ride. We detected no float or wallow, though we did find that the ride got too bouncy over
humps and ruts at highway speeds.
Steering is direct but not overly quick. The 4.6 model has electrohydraulic steering, while the 3.8 is
hydraulic. A few turns through a slalom revealed that the hydraulic steering can't keep up with quick
changes of direction, resulting in some binding, a phenomenon we've observed in many fine automobiles.
The 4.6 model had no such issue, so it was better in the slalom despite the 3.8 model's better overall
balance. (You do run your car through slaloms, don't you?)
The Genesis 3.8 model is powered by Hyundai's Lambda 3.8-liter DOHC V6, which produces 290 hp at
6200 rpm and 264 lb.-ft. of torque at 4500 rpm. The V6 is EPA-rated City/Highway at 18/27 mpg.
On the road, we found that the V6 had plenty of zip for most every need. Hyundai quotes a 6.2-second 060 mph time, but it didn't feel that quick so we tried an unofficial 0-60 mph run and found that the time
was more like 7.5 seconds. That's still pretty fast and competitive with most other cars in the class, but
not as spritely as we were told. No worries, though, because the Genesis gets up to speed quickly and
highway passing is a breeze.
The V8 model offers Hyundai's new Tau 4.6-liter DOHC V8. This engine has continuously variable valve
timing for both the intake and exhaust, and also comes with a Variable Intake System designed to allow
the engine to breathe more efficiently at both low and high speeds. The result is 375 hp at 6500 rpm and
333 lb.-ft. of torque at 3500 rpm with premium fuel. Save some cash and choose regular fuel and those
numbers drop slightly to 368 hp and 324 lb.-ft. of torque.
The V8 is substantially quicker than the V6. It has plenty of power from a stop, in the midrange, and at
highway speeds for passing. Hyundai quotes a 5.7-second 0-60 mph time, and we believe it. The V8 is
EPA-rated at 17/25 mpg City/Highway, which isn't much of a fuel economy penalty given the extra power.
Each engine is mated to a different six-speed automatic transmission. Both are responsive, shifting
quickly and smoothly. Both also have Hyundai's Shiftronic manual shift gate. However, it does not have
shift paddles on the steering wheel.
Summary
The 2009 Hyundai Genesis luxury sedan offers lots of features for the
dollar. When it comes to sport sedan credentials, the Genesis is
surprisingly capable, though not a match for the best in the class. With
a smooth ride, lots of interior room, and willing power, the Genesis is a
viable choice that fits between established luxury brands and the lessexpensive but capable Chrysler 300 and Pontiac G8. Genesis customers can choose between the
capable 3.8 model that provides better handling and fuel economy or a quicker 4.6 model that has better
steering but pushes a little more in fast turns.

2009 Hyundai Genesis Consumer Review
A happy owner
By Mike on 03/18/10 08:16 AM (PDT)
Vehicle
2009 Hyundai Genesis 3.8 4dr Sedan (3.8L 6cyl 6A)
Review
After owning 2 Elantras and 3 Sonatas and having no reliability problems and next to none other
problems with Hyundai cars I got a Genesis 3.8L w/Premium Pkg. Build quality and comfort exceed
anything I've ever owned and I've owned Lincoln an Mercedes. Performance, considering the 3.8 is
hauling around a 2 ton vehicle, is nothing short of amazing! All surfaces inside have that certain luxury
quality look and feel. All exterior panels fit evenly and the doors, trunk and hood close with authority.
Everything works as intended and expected. In town gas mileage can be no so hot at 16-17 at the
highest, but on a run back from Omaha one day I got 29 which was a pleasant surprise.
Favorite Features
The performance, stop, go, cornering. How it sits looking as though it is hunkered down over the wheels.
The stereo, 3 level heated seats, seat comfort, ride comfort. The cool interior lighting.
Suggested Improvements
Lose the one push on one push off parking brake. A hand or standard foot brake would be better. The
position of the drivers seat belt latch is hard for me to reach. A 2 inch extension would be nice. Exterior
design elegant but a bit anonymous.
Love my Genesis

Review
I only have 2000 miles on my Genesis, however this car is so much fun to drive. The ride is comfortable
and quiet, acceleration is superb for a big car, and the price is right. I also own a Benz E 350,a BMW 525I
and a Hyundai GX350. Everyone in my household wants to take the Genesis. No regrets..

Ray Skillman Community Involvement
AND 2013
December 01, 2013 jwpw Avon, IN
Returned to this dealership for easy going car buying experience. It reminded us
of buying a Saturn in 1992, very good people to work with.

Zack was great to work with. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. He did a
great job of showing us all the features of the vehicle. He made the whole
process go smoothly and got us a fantastic deal. I would definitely recommend
him and the dealership.

I must say that my experience with the Ray Skillman Westside Auto Mall was
the best experience I have ever had at a car dealership. Everyone there is
exceptional! Eric Alcorn my salesman was fantastic and I will recommend him
highly to everyone I know looking for a new vehicle.

thanks to Mike Hendershot and Terry Hannel for helping me pick the perfect
car for me and my budget. You have made this girl extremely happy! I have
never had such a wonderful experience, by the time we left, it felt like we knew
everyone there. And thanks for the cookies :)

My visit was very nice! all the staff was very helpful. Audra was super to work
with and does not take the answer no! she found the car I wanted and got me
into it very fast. I look forward to my next purchase! thanks again Audra you
rock! -
September 28, 2013 Scott Sego Indianapolis, IN
Been looking at new cars for quite some time. I looked at several cars at several places.
When I called Ray Skillman looking for a new Azera, one of the sales managers Troy
answered the phone and greeted me very professionally. I told him what I was looking for
and that I wanted to lease. He found the car, gave me a great price and told me to come
on by and pick it up. It was that simple! When I arrived he introduced me to Audra and
she took it from there. Because I was so pressed for time, I signed a form and drove the
car home that day. When I arrived the next morning to do the paperwork, I had changed
my mind on the color of the car and they very politely and very quickly changed me out to
a different color....No questions asked. Audra took the time to show me the car, answer
questions, set up my Essentials package, scheduled my first maintenance appointment
and even listened to a couple of my goofy jokes! All-in-all, this was the easiest car dealer
experience I've EVER had! I'll definitely recommend Ray Skillman West Auto Mall to my
friends. Audra is a FANTASTIC sales lady!!

I walked into Westside Auto Mall in a bundle of nerves. I was greeted at the door by
Austin Burns who immediately calmed my nerves. I had not had a car payment in 10 years
and knew that my credit was less than perfect. I was driving a Mitsubishi SUV (named
Ruby) that had 245,000 miles on it and was 13 years old. I knew I had to do something to
have a dependable vehicle for my job but also knew I couldn't spend a ton of money so I
had to absolutely LOVE whatever I purchased. Austin stayed with me for several hours
while I drove one car and then the next until finally, I decided on the Mazda 6. It was a
great choice and still is. I'm saving money on gas and feel much safer in my new-to-me
car! The finance department was very pleasant and knowing that my credit score wasn't
the best, didn't make me feel inferior about it. Eric Murphy is a very kind soul and I'm
thankful that the day that I decided to visit Ray Skillman West Side Auto, these two
gentlemen were working! I will definitely recommend them to my friends and family in
the market for a new or used vehicle!
