do it more with head-turning style, while others make their
start your pulse rate. e 2014 Hyundai Genesis Coupe is
one of those rare sports cars that looks remarkable, no
matter how you look at it.
Design? Its sleek, aggressive style prompts plenty of admiring
glances, double-takes and stares. Performance? Genesis Coupe
has altered the course of conversation about rear-wheel
drive sports cars. In Genesis Coupe 2.0T, a twin-scroll
turbocharger and large intercooler help boost output to
274 horsepower and 275 lb-ft of torque. Genesis Coupe
3.8 uses Gasoline Direct Injection to help its 3.8-liter V6
churn 348 horsepower and 295 lb- of torque.

To handle all of this power, our engineers have developed
an 8-speed SHIFTRONIC® automatic transmission that
includes race-inspired paddle shiers. So grab the wheel.
And start grabbing all of the attention.

resist the twisting forces of high-performance cornering and remain
rmly planted to the road. To give Genesis Coupe a high degree of
torsional stiness, our engineers rely on high-tensile steels. e result
is an incredibly rigid platform for the rear multi-link suspension. e
5-link design at the rear wheels creates a feeling of responsiveness
that led a senior editor at Edmunds.com to refer to the 2013 Genesis
Coupe as a “dedicated tool for dissecting any road.”

Car and Driver summed up its praise with this advice: “Note to
Genesis Coupe suspension engineers: Now may be the time to ask
2
for a raise.”
On the racetrack, even greater precision is possible.
Thanks to Genesis Coupe’s available front camber bolts, you can
calibrate the suspension for negative camber settings suited to track-
day levels of steering response. And to make those days of driving
exhilaration truly blissful, Genesis R-Spec now features larger seat
bolsters to help reduce driver fatigue.
IT’S NOT MERELY RACE-INSPIRED.

IT’S RACE-PROVEN.
Want to know the theoretical performance potential of a sports car? Take it racing. at’s
what Hyundai did with the Genesis Coupe. One example: A production-based 3.8-liter
Genesis Coupe R-Spec was developed specically to run the legendary Pikes Peak Hill
Climb, and placed in the skilled hands of o-road driving champion Rhys Millen. With its
engine output boosted to an amazing 650 horsepower, this race-modied Genesis Coupe
managed to set a world record in 2012 for the fastest time to the nish line 14,110 feet up
in the clouds.
It’s a testament to what lies at the core of Genesis Coupe: A sports car that superbly balances
its powerful engine with precise handling. Look over the specs of our R-Spec or 3.8
Ultimate models, and you’ll see how totally committed Hyundai is to oering exceptional
levels of high performance, right o the showroom oor. You’ll nd Brembo® brakes,
Torsen® limited-slip differential, and a 6-speed manual transmission that adds carbon

a 13.8:1 ratio that Car and Driver has described this way on our 2013 model: “Turn-in that’s
progressive and predictable, and its accuracy allows for condent placement in the corners
and precise control in trac.”

e key to generating 274 manageable horsepower is the 2.0T engine’s twin-scroll design. It’s more responsive at lower RPMs, and spools up more rapidly as RPMs rise.
We’ve Shifted To Carbon
Our 6-speed manual transmission has been upgraded with carbon synchronizers to improve shi quality. You’ll feel the smooth, crisp result with every throw. In every gear.
Fun Beyond The Sun
Our 2.0T R-Spec enhances all-weather drivability with new standard features that include fog lights, heated side mirrors and an auto­dimming rearview mirror with compass.
Respect The R-Spec
How’s this for a go-fast goody bag? R-Spec adds track-tuned suspension enhancements, larger bolster sports seats, front camber adjustment bolts, Brembo brakes with full-floating multi-piston calipers, a Torsen limited-slip dierential and 19” alloy wheels with performance tires.
