2016 Hyundai Genesis 3.8 AWD Review
I’ve loved this car since my very first drive. It’s the Hyundai Genesis. And dollar for dollar, it’s a premium sedan proposition that’s hard to beat.Embodying the best of Hyundai design and chassis engineering, the Genesis is actually a more appealing play than the brand’s flagship Equus. The body is more distinctive and visually engaging and the drive is more exciting. And unless you’re just all about the V8, it’s this V6 AWD model that has everything you need at a price point you can’t beat. With a starting MSRP of $39,700 the Genesis might very well be the biggest bargain in the industry. Even here, as-tested with the trifecta of Genesis option packages the sticker reads $53,100. Think that’s a lot? Consider that it’s significantly larger than its luxury midsize rivals and still has a $12,000 price advantage over an Infiniti Q70L – its closest spec sheet competitor.
Now in the 2nd model year of its 2nd generation, the Genesis moves into 2016 largely unchanged. HID headlights and LED daytime running lights are now standard while these LED fog lights are now available on the 3.8 model as part of the Signature Package. And indeed the exterior illumination is a Genesis hallmark and features auto-leveling headlights with washers, high beam assist and approach lights with the Genesis name and logo.
Coming soon, Hyundai is going to create a Genesis sub-brand at which point this car will become known as the G80. Until then, enjoy its exceptional combination of luxury ride and big car confidence stuffed with high-end goodies.
The 3.8-liter V6 not only generates a healthy 311 horsepower but Hyundai backs it with a class-appropriate exhaust soundtrack that audibly reminds you that the Genesis is hot blooded. It’ll lay down a 0-to-60mph time of about 6.0-seconds and does it with the assertive shifting of the 8-speed auto in Sport mode or manually via tactile paddles. Otherwise, keep it in Auto or Eco for the smooth, beautifully composed sedan experience. The adept steering befits the dynamic chassis for wide ranging drivability. The HTRAC all-wheel drive system was tuned for more than just grabbing onto the snow, splitting torque between the rear and front wheels for 4-wheel grip when needed and a sportier feel when not. My gas mileage is far less impressive than my last test-drive, averaging about 18mpg, though which is right in the EPA’s wheelhouse of 16mpg city/25mpg highway on regular or with increased performance on premium.
The cabin is a shining example of sound ergonomics even though it’s full of features. It’s Hyundai, so the electronics are modern and excellent anchored by this big 9.2” touchscreen that’s very intuitive. Plus, I love the Google integration that makes navigating to points of interests super easy, capable of understanding voice commands that typically throw off other systems. The head-up display is well done and the gauge cluster packs in even more customizable info, like speed limits. And because my car has the Tech Package, you get the very comfortable premium leather seating with driver’s seat cushion extender and side bolster and the litany of electronic safety aids including a haptic steering wheel to alert you of potential danger. Added smartness comes in the form of a C02 sensor to help prevent drowsy driving and an auto defogging windshield with humidity sensor and a hands-free smart trunk. But in a year’s time, there are some feature vacancies to be filled.
Otherwise, the convenience offerings are plentiful and create an accommodating ambiance for long trip comfort.
The Genesis is a bigtime winner whose next step is a freshening in 2017 at which point the V8 will be replaced by a twin-turbo V6.
