2015 Hyundai Genesis Sedan Spy Photos

Darn nice car. If it had AWD option, I would consider it. After this winter in NE US, AWD is a must.

I have decided snow tires are a must. I could have been kidding my self as I badly wanted a V8 and those Brembo's...

Snow tires are definitely nice. I've made it through one of the snowiest winters in the country this year with rwd and snow tires. There were a couple times I had to change my route, but I've never gotten stuck. If I weren't planning on moving I would be upset by the lack of v8/AWD at launch.

Now that was cool. Thanks for sharing

Here is a link to the Fort Lauderdale Auto Show. The 2015 Genesis was named the Car of the show. The show runs through Sunday for those who might want to attend.

I FINALLY SEEN THE 2016 GENESIS COUPE AT HYUNDAI'S HEAD DESIGN STUDIO AND IT LOOKED REMARKABLY SIMULAR TO THE HCD-9 CONCEPT, THEY HAVE NOT FINALISED ENGINE CHOICES BUT I THINK ALL ENGINES WILL BE TURBOCHARGED, THESE ARE THE BEST RENDERINGS I COULD DO FROM MY GLIMPSE AT THE 2016 GENESIS COUPE.

Whenever I think about "auto-braking", I always think about this:

Looks like they were supremely confident as they the media there with cameras going.

In the comments, there is a reference that an engineer forgot to turn off the "city driving" option, which disables the E-breaking.

If the automaker's engineer forgot to do that, how many owners would forget?

That was a condensed video. There was a longer version that shows how the system is supposed to work.

I think we know how it is supposed to work, as several new cars are now introducing it and are advertising (such as Hyundai during the Super Bowl). The Infiniti Q50 claims to be first car to hit the market that has this feature. These type systems are made by same companies who supply the ABS brake systems, etc, such as Continental Automotive, the same supplier who provided the 2009-2014 Genesis ABS system (and probably 2015).

Hasn't Mercedes had this out since around 2010 with Distroinic?

I am not sure. I was just quoting a recent Infiniti Q50 commercial I saw on TV that claimed they are first to hit the market. Several car makers have had adaptive cruise control (including Genesis) but maybe none of those will bring the car to a complete stop?

Looks like MB had it on the E and S class as early as 4 years ago. Distronic Plus out in the 2013 models definitely has it:

I am mistaken, and the world's first on the Q50 is something different"

"More noteworthy than the Q50's powertrains, however, is the world's first production steer-by-wire hardware that enables -- you guessed it -- the Q50 to steer itself. Direct Adaptive Steering is available as part of the $3,100 Touring Package and works with other optional driver-assistance systems to help keep the Q50 in its lane and, under certain circumstances, tracking along with gently curving roadways."​
