Looking at Hyundai's Genesis.


The Hyundai Genesis is getting some major press headline time!  This luxury car from budget friendly Hyundai is competing with the luxury line ups of BMW and Infiniti.  How is it possible that this affordable car is able to go head to head with some of the most expensive cars in the world?  Some say it is more comfortable than the Lincoln sedans you would find at High Point Ford Dealer.  Others swear it has the power and comfort you would normally find at GMC Buick Dealer Dallas.  It is one of the most expensive cars Hyundai has available, with an MSRP range between $33,000 up to $39,500.  Actually, it is the most expensive vehicle in the Hyundai family, beating out the luxury full size crossover Veracruz, with a starting price of $28,145. 

U.S. News ranks the Genesis 2nd in its Upscale Midsize Car category, beating out the Volkswagen Dealer CC, which came in at number 10.  This is a fairly large class with 15 vehicles in the category, and the Genesis only got beat out by the BMW 3-Series; Hyundai should take that as a compliment!  Further, this class is pretty stable in terms of the fact that the same contenders are always in the running and just jump around a spot or two.  Four cars tied for 2nd place; Hyundai Genesis, Cadillac CTS, Infiniti G37, and Lexus ES.  Again, Hyundai should continue to pat themselves on the back to be named in the same sentence as those famous names. 

Available in either the 3.8 or 4.6 trim level (the name corresponds for the engine), buyers will be pleased with the leather trim, 17-inch alloy wheels, and standard luxury electronic features for the "base" model.  If you go for the bigger engine, you are going to get larger 18-inch alloy wheels, leather upholstery throughout, Bluetooth, premium sound, and navigation.
