Genesis is rated more efficient than the Azera...
 
Azera 3.3 | Azera 3.8 | Genesis 3.8 | Genesis 3.3

This should be one fine automobile. They stuff all the content you could want into a car and offer it for less. The only compromise is really the badge. They are really putting luxury car companies on notice.
 
I hope they someday come after the exotic car segment. I suppose that would depend on the success of the Genesis Coupe, but imagine the possibilities. Hyundai has the designers to make it happen. I've found myself admiring quite a few of their cars in the past, only to wish they had more cajones and the proper wheels moving the car. Now they do.

Actually there is no 3.3L genesis but they may have changed their mind. Hyundai said 3.8L and 4.6L on the official website.

I like the MPG on the 6 cyl. Genesis. I'm thinking maybe the 8 cyl. will be around 24-25MPG? This is good news, especially with gas prices soaring

Ricwhite...considering the Azera is a large sedan weighing in just over 3600 lbs. it's about in the range of what to expect.

I wish someone would test drive this great sounding car and tell us all about it. Bill

I'm not at all disappointed in the highway mileage on the Azera, but I am on the city mileage. I owned a VW Passat V6 before the Azera and they both had similar EPA ratings. However, with the Passat, I was able to get around 20 city. The Azera gets around 15 city -- with the same routes as I had with the Passat. That's a 25% reduction in gas mileage over the Passat. It's also significantly below the EPA estimate. With the Passat, I actually got HIGHER than the EPA estimate.
And with "stop and go" heavy traffic driving, the Azera mileage drops to 12-13 MPG.
 
 All I'm saying is that I was expecting a little better and I hope the V8 Genesis has improved mileage efficiency. If it doesn't, then I would expect about 13 city and 25 highway. That's a little scary with gas prices now rising over $4 per gallon with $5 per gallon here by next year.
 
I know I'm not the only Azera owner somewhat disappointed in the gas mileage.

This is First Drive review.
This reporter doesn't seem to be positive on the driving performance of Gen.

Hyundai told MT and everyone else who would listen (apparently MT didn't) that the Genesis sedan is NOT a sports sedan. So what did MT do? Evaluate the car as if it were a sports sedan. I am not surpirsed they were disappointed by how it handles.

The part number for Hyundai's iPod cable. This cable allows for full iPod integration. Plugs into both USB and aux inputs.
