As its name implies, the first generation Genesis represent the origin of something completely original. It was built from the ground up using an entirely new rear-wheel drive platform, using only the highest quality components to create a powerful yet surprisingly agile car.
The second generation Genesis fully realizes the brand’s philosophy of human-focused safety, proving itself by achieving the highest rating in all measured categories of the 2014 IIHS Crash Test.
On the tracks of the famed Nürburgring, the Genesis was tested and tuned to deliver the optimal balance of performance and refinement.
