KOMPAS.com - Can a Hyundai ever be genuinely Desirable? This isthe car That sets out to make it harder Than ever to say 'no' as ananswer. The Genesis Coupe shares its name and Some of its vehiclearchitecture with the Genesis sedan, though it couldn't look or feel moredifferent.If the four-door Genesis Remains on the conservative side ofthe fence, the two-door's design is a twin nothing but dynamic with itsFastback roof, rising waistline, double-creased flanks andwheelarch-filling 19-inch wheels.The Coupe is effectively a replacementfor the Tiburon and there's a familiarity to the silhouette, though the newmodel is noticeably bigger.It’s 235mm longer at 4630mm, while it also gains in width by 105mm and height – though by the smallest dimensional change of 55mm to ensure the car sits below 1.4 metres to give it that all-important sporty stance.If you jump from the Genesis sedan to the Genesis coupe, as we did, you’ll be in for a bit of a shock, though. The over-riding sense of materials quality and relative sophistication of the executive car doesn’t make the transition to the sports car.A sizeable, T-section of the Coupe’s dash is of the spongy plastic variety, but otherwise unpleasant looking and feeling black plastics are far too domineering. It perhaps didn’t help that we were driving a 2008 model that was already starting to show its age rather than the very latest Coupe that’s had a minor interior facelift.The cabin also feels snug in comparison and the rear seats, despite a 290mm increase in wheelbase, are still best described as for very occasional use. (The boot is on the shallow side with narrow access, too, and there are luggage-crushing gooseneck hinges.)
