2010 Genesis Sedan Discussion

I'm sure that Hyundai will offer the 8-Speed Auto just as soon as it is ready. Since it is their own design and manufacture you have to assume they can build it for less money and right now they are purchasing transmissions from ZF (V8) and Aisin (V6).

Still... it's their first in house tranny. I personally wouldn't jump on a new product like that without it having some reliability/credibility behind it. Yeah, yeah... 100k warranty. Still not a headache I'm willing to deal with when buying a new car. But... that's just me.

Same with me. The Aisan transmission was a big factor in my willingness to buy a Hyundai.

The V8's ZF transmission and it's heritage in the German luxury cars is exciting. I feel like I will be getting many of the same parts as on a Mercedes or BMW for a ridiculously low price in a package every bit as classy.

It's not their first in-house transmission, it's their first in-house 8-speed transmission.
