Hyundai Genesis Coupe turbocharged track package first impression

So, we have just stopped for lunch, and I have to say that the 4 cylinder turbo Genesis Coupe is sweet. The car we were test driving was equipped with the track package, so it gets a firmer suspension, 19 inch rollers and a set of beautiful red Brembo brakes. The interior of the Coupe exceeded my expectations; the racing style buckets are supportive, the center stack is filled with attractive smooth plastic pieces and the sunroof really opens up the interior. The only thing missing is a boost gauge.

The exterior of Hyundai’s new sport compact is the perfect blend of style and aggression. However, the most impressive thing is the ride in this sport coupe, it is smooth and comfortable, even with the stiffer shock and spring set-up and low profile tires. The Genesis Coupe is definitely a step up from previous Hyundai offerings.

After lunch we are getting into a 300 HP V6 version, stay tuned for a performance comparison a little later on today.
