Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 R-Spec: A full review – Part 1

Hyundai Motors released the new sports car Genesis Coupe 3.8 R-Spec  this month. The car is 2013 version of sports vehicle the Korean company released last year. However, make no mistake that the new version is an alternative to mainstream sports cars like Ford Mustang or Chevrolet Camaro like the last year’s model. This one is a beast in its own right and competes with the aforesaid in speed and muscle.

The new R-Spec packs a muscle under the hood in the shape of a 3.8-litre V6 and is rear-wheel drive that will snake through the turns with sheer proficiency. However, on the downside, the automaker has shaved off some of cabin tech in this trim-level car. There are certain premium features and some luxury elements missing that leave something to be desired when mechanically the car is upright to compete with most of the American brands.

The car is a little longer in length and widens up the cabin area with certain compromises on the cabin features. However, when driving this beast on the road, these missing luxuries are of little importance, especially when you storm past an Infiniti or Subaru around the corners.

This is important to learn that the new R-Spec is not a cheap alternative to the American muscle cars; it is a beast that will run circles around these guys.

Specifications

There are four-wheel drives and front-wheel drives in the market but the rear-wheel drive is diminishing now-a-days. However, Hyundai has made sure that the new car gets what it needs in the same old fashion and makes the spin around corners with grace.

The R-Spec is rear-wheel drive with tyres of 225 width up front, 245 out back that have sticky summer rubber formation to give firm grip on the tarmac. The company has kept in mind that the owners will certainly take the R-Spec to the race tracks and has made it sure that this coupe does not disappoint at all.
