You can measure performance many ways.But beyond 0-60 mph times, lateral G’s or pure horsepower, there’s a better way to judge a luxury sedan: By the way you feel when you drive it.
In Genesis, those feelings start with agility, responsiveness and balance. Hyundai engineers used the Nürburgring in Germany and the Korean F1 Grand Prix circuit as proving grounds for its SHIFTRONIC paddle-shift 8-speed automatic transmission. Experts at Lotus Engineering helped validate the response of its multi-link front and rear suspensions and continuous adaptive shock absorbers.
On Genesis 3.8, available HTRAC All Wheel Drive helps improve grip on roads wet or dry. This dual mode system preserves the car’s inherent rear wheel drive bias in normal traction conditions, yet seamlessly redistributes torque to the appropriate wheels for optimal grip whenever it senses a loss of traction.
And with Intelligent Drive Mode, you can select four ride and handling settings (Normal, Sport, Eco or Snow) based on what you desire or conditions demand.There’s even an Emergency Steer Assist Mode that seamlessly optimizes stability control in sudden evasive maneuvers. Giving you something that’s impossible to calculate: An extra measure of safety.
