2010 Spec changes?

[ckon]

Has anyone seen an accurate comparison of spec changes between the 2009 Genesis sedan and the 2010? I've done a fair amount of searching and don't seem to find a comprehensive comparison. I'd like to be able to compare the additions, subtractions and changes. TIA.

I think I saw a list of added features on the MY10 on this forum.
Some of them that I remember;
- Revised suspension components; springs, shocks, sways and bushings.
- ACC: Adaptive Cruise Control (tech package)
- Electronic parking brake & hold feature
- minor change on the lower grill design to enclose the radar guiding system for ACC
- newer map database available for tech package

Thanx. I assume there was a price increase? Do you know/remember how much? For all of my interest in the Genny for the last year and a half I totally missed the model year changes.

I think one "Running Change" in the 4.6 is they bumped the HP up from 375 to 385. (but who can tell the difference??) As for me, I use 87 octane, so I "only" have 368 hp.

No problem.
I believe the price increase wasn't too much. Probably like $800.

ctrcbob also mentioned a good one - they increased the rating 10HP.
Not sure if there's actual change in the tune or it was just a rating, number thing.

They increased the power by 10 ponies as mentioned but they also improved fuel economy not to menton tweaking the transmission for better/sportier driving. See it here. http://wardsauto.com/reports/2010/tenbest/hyundai/index.html

Midnightsun,

Are you not watching the game?

Yep, sorry for the late reply. We won by the way.

I saw a new 2010 3.8 TECH right off the truck at KEY HYUNDAI- a silver model- it had the 4.6 18" wheels, not the (my) 3.8 18 inchers. Is this the case across the board?

OK, that explains why the acceleration felt like more than 375 HP

I have seen mixed information on the HP increase. In my 2010 brochure, the HP is listed as 375, but I've also come across references to 385hp. Go figure.
