2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe Test Drive & Car Review
http://www.autobytel.com/hyundai/genesis-coupe/2013/ The 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe is back with a newly redesigned look and upgraded engine choices. The Genesis Coupe has always been lumped into the muscle car category with its front engine, rear-wheel drive platform. But the muscle cars have always held a distinct power advantage until now.
The base engine for the 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe is a turbocharged 2.0 liter 4-cylinder. Power is up 30% from 210 horsepower up to 274 horsepower. An upgraded dual-scroll turbo, larger Intercooler, and Dual Continuously Variable Valve Timing help achieve these better power figures. Fuel economy for the 2.0 liter engine is 21 MPG in the city and 30 MPG on the highway. The other engine choice is a direct-injected 3.8 liter V-6 which produces 348 horsepower. Fuel economy for this engine is expected to be 18 MPG in the city and 28 MPG in the highway. There are two transmission choices available in the 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe: an 8-Speed automatic or a 6-speed manual.
On the outside the 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe retains the same overall shape but the styling has been changed to reflect the rest of the Hyundai line-up. Up front the Genesis receives a more aggressive look thanks to an upgraded hood with two scoops, new front fascia, and larger bumper opening. Out back the Exhaust gasses exit out dual asymmetrical chrome pipes. The lights have been upgraded to include LED daytime running lamps which can be found on high end luxury cars. The R-Spec and Track editions will receive huge 19-inch alloy wheels.
On the inside the 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe features an available 360-watt Infinity sound system. There are steering wheel controls for the audio system and the usual iPod, USB, and auxiliary ports. A navigation system can be purchased as an option that includes a 7-inch touch screen monitor. The rear seats have been designed with comfort in mind. Instead of stuffing 3 seats in the rear; Hyundai has decided to go with only two. This means there is a ton of room for the rear occupants.
When the Hyundai Genesis Coupe arrived on the scene a few years ago it was certainly a respectable car. In fact it was this car and the sedan version that really gave Hyundai a Boost in the automotive world. Now with the 2013 model there is more power! The base model 2.0 liter Hyundai Genesis Coupe starts at $24,250 and the top of the line 3.8 liter with the track package will retail for about $33,000.

2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 R Spec Test Drive & Sport Compact Car Review
http://www.autobytel.com/hyundai/genesis-coupe/2013/3-8-r-spec-(m6)/ The Korean automaker Hyundai has come a long way with the 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 R Spec. The fuel efficient automaker used to be know for getting great gas mileage, but the refreshed Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 R Spec is an enthusiasts dream come true. Hyundai kick started the 21st century sport compact craze with the original Genesis Coupe, and while it was a breath of fresh air from the 100,000 mile warranty car builder, at the time the rear wheel drive sport compact felt a bit heavy. However the refreshed 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe not only looks better, but thanks to gasoline direct injection they make a whole lot more power as well. Starting at $28,750 the 3.8 R Spec comes exclusively with a six speed manual that is connected to the torquey 3.8 Liter Lambda V6 and rides on a set of staggered 19 inch wheels wrapped in stick y Bridgestone Potenza tires and house a set of big red Brembo brake calipers.
The 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 R Spec is motivated by a large 3.8 Liter GDI V6 that produces 348 HP at 6,400 RPM and 295 lb-ft of torque at 5,300 RPM. Despite the added power the 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe R Spec still gets great gas mileage, rated at 18 MPG in the city and as much as 27 MPG on the highway. The 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 R Spec is quick too, accelerating from 0 to 60 MPH in 5.9 seconds and keeps on going though the quarter mile in 14.3 seconds at 98 MPH.
From the ground up the 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe R Spec was built to perform. The 3.8 R Spec handles great, even with the extra weight up front from the Lambda V6. The 225 wide rubber up front helps point the R Spec around turns while the Torsen limited slip differential makes sure that power is distributed evenly across the 245 series tires out back. The Brembo brake calipers also help to bring things to a halt. On the inside the sport bucket seats hold occupants in place nicely and add a nice touch to the 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe R Spec's enthusiast attitude.

2013 Hyundai Veloster Turbo Car Video Review
http://www.autobytel.com/hyundai/veloster/2013/ When the Hyundai Veloster was released in 2011 many enthusiasts were excited to see a fantastic looking and affordable sport compact car that would give the other hot hatchbacks in the segment a run for their money. The let down came when the hood was opened to reveal a 138 horsepower 1.6 liter naturally aspirated engine that was more suited for fuel efficiency rather that for performance. Well now you can have your cake with the release of the 2013 Hyundai Veloster turbo! The base price on the turbo model is $21,950.
The 2013 Hyundai Veloster turbo is powered by a twin-scroll turbocharged 1.6 liter 4-cylinder engine based on the standard Veloster Gamma GDi engine. The turbo motor has a lower compression ratio at 9.5:1 to handle the added Boost pressure. The gasoline direct injection (GDi) motor also sports Dual Continuously Variable Valve Timing (D-CVVT). Power output for the turbo engine is 201 horsepower and 195 lb-ft. of torque which puts the Veloster turbo right in the middle of the sport compact car pack. The standard transmission is a 6-speed manual but there is also is 6-speed automatic version with paddle shifters. The manual is the more fuel efficient transmission at 26 MPG in the city and 38 MPG on the highway.
On the outside the Hyundai Veloster turbo model is distinguishes itself from the regular model in a few ways. For started, the Veloster turbo has a huge wide-mouth front grille opening to let in vast amounts of cool air. There is also a lower lip spoiler on the turbo model. Another cool feature found on the turbo-only model are the LED lights front and back. The front projector headlights sport LED daytime running light accents which are normally reserved for high end luxury vehicles. The wheels on the Hyundai Veloster turbo are 18-inch alloy units that combine both a matte and chrome finish. The limited edition matte gray pain job will set you back an additional $800, but the finished result is well worth it. The standard non-turbo Veloster features squared Exhaust tips while the turbo model has rounded ones.
The 2013 Hyundai Veloster turbo can be considered one of the hottest new hatchbacks on the market. Not only does the Veloster turbo have over 200 horsepower, but this car can get up to 38 MPG on the highway. The 2013 Veloster turbo looks great and comes packed with tons of standard features.

2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport Test Drive & Crossover SUV Video Review
http://www.autobytel.com/new-cars/hyundai/santa-fe/ The 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe is a brand new redesign that makes this the 3rd generation automobile. It's hard to believe that the Santa Fe came out back in 1998. Back then there were not many crossovers on the market yet. Now that practically every automobile manufacturer has a crossover, Hyundai is playing it smart. They have gotten rid of the Veracruz model and then Hyundai has created a long wheel base and a short wheel base Santa Fe. Prices start at $24,450.
There are 2 different engine options available on the 2013 Santa Fe Sport. The first is a direct injected 2.4 liter 4-cylinder engine that makes 190 horsepower and 181 lb-ft. of torque. The second engine is a 2.0 liter turbocharged and gasoline direct injected motor that makes 264 horsepower and 269 lb-ft. of torque. The standard transmission is a 6-speed automatic. Fuel economy is 31 MPG combined for the turbo and 33 MPG combined for the naturally aspirated engine.
On the inside the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport has a great 8-inch Navigation as an option. The panoramic sunroof is ultra cool and lets rear passengers enjoy the fresh air and sunlight. The Santa Fe Sport comes standard with many great features like cruise control, power windows and locks, Bluetooth, and steering wheel mounted audio controls to name a few. Safety wise the Santa Fe comes with 7 airbags, stability control, traction control, and anti-lock brakes. These items are all standard on the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport.
Many improvements have been made and maybe the most important is the reduction in weight. The 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe weighs 266 lbs. less than the previous model. That weight reduction has a positive effect on fuel economy. The Santa Fe Sport can carry up to 5 people. The rear seat is a 40/20/40 split bench making for a versatile crossover SUV. You can order the Santa Fe in either FWD or AWD configurations.
The 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport is priced right alongside its competition. But with the Santa Fe you get more standard features for your money along with a great 10 year 100k mile warranty.

2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe Walkaround with HMA Product Manager Ricky Lao
http://www.autobytel.com/hyundai/genesis-coupe/2013/ Autobytel recently met with Ricky Lao, Product Manager for Hyundai Motor America. Ricky was gracious enough to give us a walkaround car review of the newly refreshed 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe.
The redesigned 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe now produces over 270 horsepower and 275 lb-ft. of torque from the 2.0 liter turbocharged motor thanks to a more efficient inter cooler and a twin scroll turbocharger that increases output without sacrificing fuel economy. Not to be outdone by the entry level motor, the big 3.8 liter V-6 powered Genesis Coupe now features go fast goodies like direct injection that helps Boost output to 348 horsepower and 295 lb-ft. of torque, a 42 horsepower gain over the previous version. You get the best of both worlds with increased fuel economy to go along with the bump in power. Both engines are available with the first ever in-class 8-speed automatic transmission or the 6-speed manual.
One of the key goals with the 2013 refresh was to create a bold exciting look for the Genesis Coupe. Hyundai focused on the front face of the vehicle by adopting a bumper with a larger opening. The higher trim levels benefit from HID headlights with LED running lights. The hood lines are more aggressive to showcase a bolder statement for this vehicle. Out back LED tail lamps are standard on all Genesis Coupe models. Hyundai has retained the strong dynamic look of the rear along with the dual Exhaust. With the 3.8 track edition you get huge 19-inch wheels with a gunmetal finish along with 4-piston Brembo brakes to enhance the braking performance.
On the inside the interior has been updated to give a more premium and dynamic feel. The center stack has been redesigned soft touch materials and double stitching. Analog gauges are standard and include either a torque meter or Boost gauge depending on the model. The trim is piano black and the buttons have chrome accent pieces that add to the premium feel. An electroluminescent gauge cluster looks spectacular. The large navigation screen finishes off a wonderfully updated interior.
Thanks to Ricky Lao and Hyundai Motor America for the up-close and personal look at the refreshed 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe.

Genesis Coupe Drift Car Heist from Hyundai Headquarters featuring Rhys Millen
About two weeks before the wrecking ball was about to completely demolish our old Hyundai Motor America headquarters building in Fountain Valley, California, we had a crazy thought: Wouldn't it be cool to do something outrageous inside the building before all the walls finally came down?
Actually, it was Dustin Loranger, one of our Service Technicians, who had the idea...and we loved it. Why not put Rhys Millen, his Genesis Coupe drift car, and our abandoned HQ together for a unique drift demonstration in a unique industrial setting? Rhys was up for the challenge, and remarkably, so were our lawyers, so we put this thing together, with tongue (and donut) firmly planted in cheek.
We think the video does a pretty good job showcasing Rhys' car control skills, the sweetness of the Genesis Coupe drift car, and the reason why Hollywood probably doesn't have to worry, just yet, about this cast and crew. ;)
How'd we do?
2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 Track vs 2013 Ford Mustang V6 Performance Package
Regardless of their opposing design philosophies, both the Genesis Coupe and Mustang are equipped with high-output naturally aspirated V6 engines and 6-speed manual gearboxes, tip the scales at around 3,500 lbs, and are packaged with firmer suspensions, bigger brakes and stickier tires so that you can literally drive them off the showroom floor and onto the race track. And that's exactly what we've done.
