Genesis - I Can't Dance (Official Music Video) Oops, wrong Genesis |
|
I spoke with the Genesis rep yesterday, he says that's probably only going to the Chinese Market.
If anyone has questions about the Genesis line just hit me up. |

I wouldnt pay 80k for a Hyundai. Just checked resale values on a 2018 and they are 50to 60k. That's horrible in today's market.

Passenger vehicle interior design nowadays does not easily facilitate road head.
This must end. I will stop the motor of the world. |

That's awesome. Hyundai and their subsidiaries have been knocking it out of the park lately. Obviously the Telluride and Palisade have both taken a ton of domestic buyers to the Korean side. They're starting to knock the old label of cheap and unreliable.
My fiance has been on the verge of switching from Lexus to Porsche for the Macan. The other day we saw a Genesis GV70 and she liked it even more. |

Quoted: Lexus has gone full retard with BMW with the giant ass grill game View Quote You can blame mainland China for the giant grill game. They simply demand it. As ridiculous as it is to say grill size is proportional to their sales in China, bigger the grill the more you sell, it is a odd status thing for sure. |

Still a Hyundai. I honestly don't understand why brands don't kick their parent logos (and associated baggage) and just start a new company when they want to release something cool. Also, see #corvette.

I definitely don't hate it. The back seats remind me of a '70s Chrysler.
With all the screens everywhere, why aren't all gauge clusters just digital screens? Why can't drivers download 'themes' for these digital gauges (...say, I want my gauges to look like a 1962 Thunderbird, I could just download the 'theme', install it, and use it)? I digress, my apologies. This was a pretty cool interior - kind of like Rivian meets '70s Chrysler. |

Shouldn't this 'advertisement' be in the Kia Industry Forum?

But I think they Couple Genesis with a Hyaundai dealer in most areas like Caddilac does with their GM dealers. |

Yuck, looks like the interior design of a 15 year old S Class.

Quoted: The back seat honestly looks more appealing than the front. And that’s not a negative comment on the visual appearance of the front seats View Quote My first thought was Korean market. The Genesis name got its start es executive transport. Big wigs having drivers and the back seat being the "luxury" seat is much more common there. |

Quoted: back when this was the hyundai equus and moving forward to the g90 these were heavily marketed as cars for people who can afford a personal driver. The 40 decibel noise reduction, multiple microphone and audio zones built into the rear for meetings, air ride suspension...etc are all meant for someone to realistically spend more time in the back of one of those than ever driving one. They are super fun to drive too though. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: The back seat honestly looks more appealing than the front.

Quoted: Hyundai hired a bunch of German Engineers and Designers about 15 years ago and put them to work. The 2nd generation of Genesis is almost a carbon copy of a late 2000's Mercedes S-Class.

Suspension, Brakes, etc... All set up identical to a Mercedes. Look at a Kia Stinger and a Porsche Panamera side by side. Kia hired the lead designer on the Panamera... 2019 Stinger https://www.tflcar.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/2019_kia_stinger_gt_13.jpg 2012 Porsche Panamera https://performancedrive.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/2012-Porsche-Panamera-Turbo-S.jpg Hyundai and Kia's entries into the luxury performance sedan market are outstanding values and very nice cars.

Quoted: Faux pleather that will look like shit in 2-3 years. Not a bad design and color scheme though, I will give them that. View Quote It always amazes me how people who have no idea what they are talking about, still talk. Also, why do you have to come up with a negative right off? You need it so bad you said one that wasn't even true. That's a weird negative personality trait of a very specific kind of person. Try to do better. |

Quoted: No, I mean Hyundai specifically targeted the Chinese for this. It's like an old Buick, Lincoln, and Lexus had a three way in the interior and attempted to incorporate Porsche exterior. Oh well. View Quote But I mean, Hyundai group has done that kind of rear interior since like 1999 with the first gen equus. Kia has done it even longer since 1987 or so. This is not a new trend by any means. |

They were absolute cheap disposable transportation, nothing quality, nothing overly reliable...just cheap crap! What they don't/refuse to realize is that over the years they have stepped up their game and decided to do better. Even if it took them a while to improve. |
