Motor Trend takes 2009 Hyundai Genesis throughout the Year

There's only so much one can learn when test-driving a car at a dealership. Thus, we turn to sister site motortrend.com for more long-term information.

Here's the lowdown on the 2009 Hyundai Genesis:



David Zenlea, Assistant Editor
"The Genesis was the perfect choice for a weekend sprint to Rochester, Minnesota, and back. The interior is splendid and extremely user-friendly. I noticed last night that along with the fronts, the rear sill plates are also illuminated - nice touch. I still think the Genesis is awfully generic-looking, but so is every Lexus sedan, and it hasn't stopped them from winning thousands of loyal customers."

Mike Ofiara, Road Test Coordinator
"The Genesis seemed like a good choice for a weekend trip to Kentucky to see my sister. It's such an easy car to like. I was barely fatigued after the seven-hour drive to Louisville. This car can be aimed with one finger on the wheel even at highway speeds, not that I would attempt it, but it's that effortless to drive. I set the cruise at 75 mph and got 26.5 mpg; that's higher than the EPA numbers suggest and impressive for a 4.6-liter V-8.

That is pretty amazing! Still not as good as the British cars though ;)
