2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe Review

Introduction

The 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe shares its name with the Genesis sedan, but that’s effectively where the sharing stops. Yes, the Coupe’s uplevel 3.8-liter V6 is similar (though not identical) to the sedan’s base engine, and yes, the cars roll on the same basic platform. Drive them back to back, though, and you’ll think they might as well be from different planets. While the Coupe is laudably comfortable and refined, it has none of the sedan’s plush, isolated character. It’s a genuinely sporting car that can run with its benchmark, the Infiniti G37 coupe, in all respects save straight-line acceleration. If you’re looking for a stylish coupe with serious performance, the Genesis Coupe is one of the best deals on the market.

The Genesis Coupe’s 2.0T trim levels come with a 210-horsepower, 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder. Considering the car’s affordable base price and the presumptive ease with which horsepower can be increased by aftermarket tuners, the 2.0T will likely be the trim of choice for young hot-rodders. Should you wish to keep your Genesis’ warranty intact, the turbo-4 is adequate right out of the box, and the uplevel 3.8-liter V6 provides burly acceleration with an exhaust note to match. The only powertrain lowlight is the shifter/clutch tandem on manual-transmission models — the shifter lacks precision, and neither it nor the clutch likes to be rushed.

There’s very little wrong with the 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe from a style or design perspective. The exterior sheet metal is handsome and sporty — calling the coupe the best-looking Hyundai ever would be a perfectly reasonable statement. The cabin is particularly impressive, boasting an enveloping cockpit-like environment. The rear seat is useless for adults, but you can fit a couple kids back there in a pinch. We’ve often said that Hyundai’s models are “nice for the price,” but the Genesis Coupe is just a nice car, period.

Note that the Genesis Coupe does have a clear rival in the bang-for-the-buck category — the new 2010 Chevrolet Camaro, which offers a sophisticated 300-hp V6 at the Genesis Coupe 2.0T’s price point, and a honking 422-hp V8 priced opposite the top-of-the-line Genesis Coupe 3.8 Track. One could also consider the retro-themed and enjoyable Ford Mustang GT a competitor for the 3.8 Track model. But no other coupe can match the Hyundai’s combination of style, refinement and performance for the price. The BMW 128i comes the closest, but its polarizing exterior design hurts its case, and the Nissan 370Z is too single-minded in its sportiness to present a real challenge. We weren’t sure we’d ever be saying this about a Hyundai performance car, but the Genesis Coupe is the real deal.
