  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

All genesis owners big brother is here!

Well here's why I believe that...
1. Hyundai hires Albert Biermann, formerly engineering chief to BMW M Performance
2. ...they hired him specifically to run Hyundai's new N-Performance brand
3. While at BMW, Biermann spearheaded the development of a 4.4 twin-turbo V8 to power the M6 and M5

So it's really not that big of a stretch. Now maybe it won't be the 5L V8, and maybe it will just be the 4.6. But since they already have the 5.0, why not?

Thinking more likely a new smaller displacement 4.0 TTV8.


I really hope an X1, X3, X5 suv/sav style comes out of this as well, each respectively like the sedans. I would trade my current Genesis for a Genesis GX90..80...whatever. And I want the 5.0 with some forced air on it....turbo/supercharger...idc...just force air it.

so basically an X5 type luxury suv/sav with over 500hp. something along the lines of the Cayenne for way less.

also I hope this means a completely new Genesis dealership, but still the ability to go to Hyundai for repairs if need be.

Seems like a Genesis/G80 and a smaller G70 based crossovers.

So something larger than the X5 (big enough for a real 3rd row) and something larger than the X3.

No plans for anything below the compact segment for the near-future, as well as for sports CUVs like the X4 and X6.

Likely will see at least one lux CUV from Kia as well.
