2012 Hyundai Genesis User Reviews

Pros

none

Cons

BARROWED TECHNOLOGY/SECOND CLASS

Purchased As New

AUDIO UNIT DOES NOT WORK WITH ALL OPERATING SYSTEMS, SPECIALLY NOT WITH ANDROID ONES.
GPS UNIT NOT ACCURATE AND UPGRADE IS $350 AT THE DEALERS ONLY.
ALL CHROME INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR IS PEELING OFF SOONER OR LATER, WHAT A QUALITY.
ALL THE MEMORY AND ADJUSTING FUNCTONS FOR SEATS AND STEERING WHEEL POSITION FAIL INTERMITTENT.
THE RIDE IS BUMPY AND NO HANDLING. HYUNDAI/KIA HARDLY ENGINEER AND PRODUCE THEIR OWN. THIS IS ALL TAKEN FROM OTHER GERMAN MANUFACTURERS IDEA AND SUPPLIER FOR LESS QUALITY AND MONEY.
HYUNDAI/KIA HAS DISCOVERED THE POWER OF MARKETING FOR US CONSUMERS AND NOT QUALITY.
SPEND YOUR MONEY ON SECOND CLASS!!!!!!!...read morehide

Cons

None

Purchased As New

I love my Genesis so much. Best thing I have ever spent my money on, and it is worth every penny. Did I say so sexy. I cannot see myself driving anything else.

Pros

Awesome ride, lots of miles with a tank of gas and comfortable seats

Cons

None to us

Purchased As New

We love this car so much that we are owners of two of them, 2009 for my husband and again we bought another in 2011 for me. The ride is so smooth, noise free and all about comfort for us. Hyundai products are some of the best manufactured today as we had owned 3 Sonata's prior to our two Genesis....read morehide

Pros

Price + power + tech = great deal.

Cons

no electric powered trunk

Purchased As New

I am comparing the Genesis sedan to the last few cars my wife and I had. The list includes a 09 5series, 09 TL, 10 Genesis coupe, and 10 MDX. I was hesitant going from a German brand to a Korean brand and I am hooked. The amazing part of this is that the Genesis brand is just getting better and better every year. I do not see myself driving a German car in the future....read morehide

Pros

Everything, Very strong drivline

Cons

Ignorant people stuck in the 80's about the brand quality.

Purchased As New

Lots of car for the money.. Will buy another one without questions. Screwed together as well as the over priced Japanese cars and hold up just as well as the German cars. People are just brand snobs and apparently have more money than sence. Really tragic people can't ope their eyes, they are truly missing out on a great value and awesome car. .Kudos to Hyundai for knocking this one out of that park... Other manufacturing companies should take note........read morehide

Pros

Good bang for the buck

Cons

Needs AWD for winter driving

Purchased As New

The car is great, has a lot of pep, but needs AWD for winter driving.

Pros

great fuel economy for a luxury car

Cons

a bit too sensitive in the steering

Purchased As New

Ours is a 2011 v6 with 28000 miles. Car is almost flawless. We have been on numerous road trips and also enjoy this car daily. Even had it in about 6" of snow and it did well for a rear drive vehicle. I tried to make it spin out but the wonderful computer system just would not allow me to fishtale. I'm 6'3 and find the car to fit me well....read morehide

Pros

The king of "bang for the buck"

Cons

Ride could use some tweeking-but very acceptable

Purchased As New

No other car can offer 85% of a Lexus LS460, at 50% of the price. Cant be beat-period. Need to pinch myself everytime I drive because it's a steal. Fit,finish,performance,capability all there. The cabin is dead quiet.

Pros

QUIET, SLEEK, ROOMY

Cons

NONE

Purchased As Used

I LOVE MY GENESIS! I GET STOPPED ALL THE TIME BECAUSE MINE HAS THE WINGS INSTEAD OF THE "H" EMBLEM AND PEOPLE ALWAYS ASK "NICE CAR, WHAT IS IT!" OR "WOW THATS A NICE CAR!" I COULDN'T BE MORE HAPPY WITH MY GENESIS!!

Pros

Appearance, ride, comfort, value

Cons

None

Purchased As New

I had driven a Mercedes S-430 for 12 years & loved everything about it. Spent a year researching other cars (due largely to the cost of a new Mercedes) & selected my 2012 Genesis. It reminds me of my Mercedes where it means the most to me - comfort, ride, appearance & safety. The best part is that the Genesis provides all of this at about 1/3 the cost of purchasing a similar (S 550) new Mercedes. Also, the warranty coverage is incredible....read morehide
