Hyundai CEO Outlines The Next-Generation Genesis
Everyone believed that the new HCD-14 Genesis Concept that was unveiled at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show previews the next-generation Genesis, but Hyundai America CEO, John Krafcik, announced this is not the case.

Instead, the new concept might feature design elements - like its sweeping roof line - that could be used in a new four-door coupe

Krafcik also confirmed that the next- generation Hyundai Genesis will be unveiled sometime next year. It will feature a far more traditional and feel much more "German," and, for the first time, will be offered with an all-wheel drive system.

As for the Coupe version, he confirmed that it could get either a turbo V-6 or a V-8 engine. It’s true that the current Genesis coupe won’t fit a V-8 in its engine bay, but changes will be made so that the next Genesis Coupe can accommodate larger engines. Either way, it looks like we’re in for a power hike in the Genesis Coupe.
