Genesis Coupe is retired

Firebase99 · 08-04-2016, 11:13 AM

Well its the swan song for the Genesis Coupe. Saw this on multiple sites now.
I hope they bring back the coupe under the focused "Genesis" badge in the N Performance line by '18 or '19. Competition is always good IMO.

Dead: Hyundai Genesis Coupe

I just learned (did anyone here know?) that there is no 5.0 Liter model available for the Genesis sedan for 2016. Just my detuned 3.8. Huh...not sure how I feel about that.

It's coming back as a chunky luxury coupe

Expect Kia to have the enthusiasts coupe

Wonder how close it will be to the concept

The current one just looks like some over carved econobox, much like the Tiburon was back in the day.

thank god

That concept debuted like 6 months ago and on the Genesis forum, we collectively turned our nose up if THAT is going to be the next coupe. As pretty as it is, inside and out, that arguably is a Bentley. No thanks.

I really hope the next Genesis Coupe performs and is received well. The more competition the Z has, the better it will be for us.

Wait for the Kia to be produced. The stinger concept from 2013 is supposed to be the genocide replacement

Yea thats a long running rumor as well, there are some wild concepts of a new coupe at https://www.instagram.com/genesis_motors/ scroll down. They sure do make some pretty cars though.

If I wasn't seeing any badges. I would think I'm looking at the Q60. SMH.

It's time for Hyundai to stop it...

Imitation is the best form of flattery. And thats better looking than a Q60 IMO. Not that the 60 isnt pretty but this...whoa. And hey, competition

is a good thing.

That exterior screams Chrysler (to me anyway).

But I'm really digging the retro interior. Distinct, and classy.
