The highly anticipated refresh of the Hyundai Genesis Coupe has been finally unleashed by the latest spy shots we bring you today that have taken the automotive web by storm. These images, taken in a Hyundai factory in South Korea, reveal a distinct new look for the 2013 Genesis Coupe, one that mimics the new corporate look seen on the Veloster and Elantra.
While we can't make final judgments on the design without having seen the car in person, it isn't exactly looking favorable from these spy shots. The new LED taillights and alloy wheels certainly are a step in the right direction, but the front end will definitely take some time to get used to. Rest assured though, we're definitely optimistic about what will be under the hood.
We should see the regular turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder and 3.8-liter V-6 options remain, with the V-6 getting the same 333 horsepower and 291 pound-feet of torque bump in output applied to the 2012 Hyundai Genesis Sedan.
This represents a significant increase of 27 horsepower and 25 pound-feet of torque over the outgoing V-6 model, brought about by the addition of direct injection and a higher compression ratio. Only modest gains are expected for the 210 horsepower and 223 pound-feet of torque four-cylinder model.
Stay tuned for more information in the lead up to the car's official debut marked for next year's Detroit Auto Show in January.
