2015 Hyundai Genesis Coupe

On paper, the Hyundai Genesis Coupe has a lot of potential, but several flaws prevent it from being a compelling sports coupe. Powered by a good-sounding and punchy V6 engine, its 23 mpg overall is quite impressive. The power is matched with sporty and agile handling, making the Coupe fun to drive. But the car is let down by a heavy clutch and a balky manual transmission that together require extra attention to extract smooth shifts. The ride is very stiff and can be unsettled. Front-seat occupants will find plenty of room, but the rear seat is very cramped. Like other Hyundais, it offers generous equipment for the price.

Brand context

About Hyundai

From low-cost sedans to three-row EV SUVs, Hyundai has a model for almost every kind of customer. Most new Hyundai vehicles are stylish, functional, and competitively priced, but the brand overall ranks around the middle in Consumer Reports’ Reliability and Owner Satisfaction ratings. Individual models and years vary widely, with some standouts and a few laggards. The core Hyundai lineup includes low-cost subcompacts like the Elantra, and midsized sedans like the Sonata. SUVs include the subcompact Kona and compact Tucson, plus the midsize Santa Fe and larger Palisade, both of which offer three-row seating. Many models are available as hybrids or plug-in hybrids. In our testing, most Hyundai models benefit from a hybrid drivetrain, which adds power and smoothness in addition to improving fuel economy. Hyundai’s EVs are some of the best values among electric cars. The Ioniq models are high-tech, well designed, and can charge quite rapidly at public DC fast charging stations.
