    Spying: 2015 Hyundai Genesis

    By William Maley

    April 17, 2013

    A fresh batch of spy photos of the 2015 Hyundai Genesis were released today and it looks like the new model will be carrying some of the cues seen on the HCD-14 Concept shown earlier this year at the Detroit Auto Show.

    The most notable parts of the 2015 Genesis are the front and rear clips, which look almost like the clips on the HCD-14 Concept. The front features a large, square grille and rectangular LED headlights. The back end has a raked rear window and detailed LED taillights.

    Moving inside, the 2015 Genesis takes some ideas from the new 2014 Equus with a much cleaner center stack and a mix of analog gauges paired with digital screens.

    The interior gives me a BMW vibe, compared to the current car's S-class looking center stack. I wish they'd come up with their own look, hopefully the exterior looks like a Hyundai and not just like a blend of other cars. I like the current Genesis a lot, but it is just too boring looking, and doesn't have enough unique styling cues. I hope this car is good, and the 5.0 V8 carries over, because getting a 430 hp rear drive luxury sedan for $45k is great value.

    What I meant was they don't NEED to copy the Teutons. In fact, it hurts them more than it helps them because it creates the perception that they are nothing more than copy cats -- which they have come a long way from technologically,

    The current car is too plain and generic on the outside and the interior is a little gaudy. The new interior here is okay but I wish these car companies could come up with there own look instead of copying BMW and Mercedes.

    I think Hyundai is on the right track with their designs, the new Santa Fe, and Mighu or whatever the Chinese specific sedan is, are very attractive and all of the newer Hyundai's have interiors that IMHO have more (mostly good) character than other manufacturer's. Why not carry this over into the Genesis? Instead they are using some bland looking interior design...

    • I agree. And I understand what you wrote about no mandate needed.  EVs will turn that tipping point in due time. Shortly. And like you said, Chinese EVs will be the ones to do it.  I included that tidbit ONLY because most Americans STILL cant get off the oil addiction they have.  GM has mentioned that they are going along with the 2035 timeline.  But since Trump has alienated America from its allies, GM will try to delay 2035.  Like Dodge though, V8s and turbocharged lawn mower sized engines in CUVs will only get you so much.  The rest of the world is strumming along with the 2035-2040 timeline regardless what the Chinese automotive industry is doing.  I used 2035 as a visual as that is only 9 years away...    Dodge announcing the Durango only gets V8 offerings and is ditching the 6 cylinder offerings, and some Americans declare a win for the internal combustion engine...missing the real problems for the American automotive industry.   Like you said, but with my angle, 2035 is a short 9 years away to stress a point.  What you said about no mandate needed as EVs will tip the point probably before 2035.  But in America, your folk lack critical thinking skills and do not realize what you said, thinking that  a Hellcat powered 15 year old SUV is a saviour for the internal combustion engine and everything else is misinformation.    
    • There is no need for an EV mandate or regulation saying no ICE after 2035 or 2040 or whatever date.   What will happen is China will build a Rav4 like crossover that is more reliable than a Rav4, costs less to maintain, has a longer warranty, has more horsepower, smoother and quieter motor due to being EV and it will cost $10,000 less than a Rav4.   And at that point, no one will want a gas Rav4 and ICE dies for mass market cars.   Some sports cars and enthusiasts cars will have ICE engines, long haul trucks will probably be diesel.  There are use cases where gas or diesel make sense, but it might be 10-20% of the market.
    • Lets be honest in setting the blame where it belongs, IDIOT47 and the 1% crowd that is only more than happy to do illegal pay offs to get billion dollar deals done. Example is the Paramount deal! We are in the Decade of Criminal Pay to Play mode! Paramount Merger Approved After $16 Million Trump Settlement
    • Sales slowing down 2% for Gen Zers. But a whopping 10% just in Canada alone because of our boycott.  Yeah...like I said, Gen Zers was not enough to cause these bankruptcies.  The Canadian boycott was.  And as I said, American journalism wants to soften the blow as to hush hush how Trump targeted Canada and is losing this battle.  The article states that Europe hasnt levied their tariffs on American booze just yet. But Im willing to bet that Europeans have boycotted American booze anyhow.    When California wine makers, the smaller ones suffer the same fate eventually in 2026, are we gonna blame that on Gen Z as well?  Possibly.  To not blame Trump and his shytty victimhood by engaging economic warfare with the planet...
    • I can attest to people not wanting to drink what their parents drink as I love my local Washington State wines and yet my son would rather drink Japanese Wiskey or Bullet Bourbon than drink wine with me.  The largest growth among Gen Z has been with Soju, Korean liquor. That has exploded even in the U.S. in sales. Amazing how many drink it mixed with Korean Beer for a Soju Bomb. Soju is #1 and White Claw is #2 world wide.
