What owners say
"Overall, owners are very pleased with the 2009 Hyundai Genesis, praising its luxurious interior, smooth ride, and powerful performance. Many appreciate the value it offers for a luxury vehicle, with features often found in more expensive models. However, there are a few common complaints, including the heavy trunk lid, a somewhat harsh suspension over bumps, and minor issues with navigation and sound system features."
I really like the body style and overall size of the car. It is so spacious. Overwhelmingly loaded with standard features that only come as extras in other luxury vehicles. I wish there was more wood grained trim in the interior.
February 25, 2014I purchased this car brand new in 2009. Absolutely satisfied with the car. I have had 2 notes with telephone numbers from anonymous admirers of this car placed under the windshield wipers within the first month! This is a great car for a great price!
December 2, 2014My 2009 Genesis has 89,000 miles and it still looks great! I love the way it handles, its strong & responsive engine, and its classy interior. It flies effortlessly & smoothly down the highway and the stereo sound is perfection! In 2009, Hyundai was still playing catch-up in terms of execution refinement. The steering wheel auto-positioning feature has a glitch. The radio receivers Sirius reception needs to be refreshed every time it is selected. The trunk lid is very heavy, though I have not attempted to adjust it, if it is even possible. All that said, I love my Genesis. A great used vehicle value!

April 21, 2020If you are looking for affordable luxury at an affordable price, then you need not look any further. This car performs like a luxury sports car and has the looks and drive of a mid size mercedes. the interior is well apointed and options are driver friendly. The cost of ownership is very reaonable, gas mileage averages 27(mph)Hwy and 22(mph)city. The only maintenance needed during 26000 miles has been routine oil changes and tire rotations. Driving this car makes you smile!
January 10, 2011Great V8 engine, no major repairs yet but squeaked a little, performed good, acceleration and braking top notch, cost around $50000 for the V8 4.6L, definitely a fun and cool car to drive as I hear whistles around as I drive
October 27, 2009The suspension is rather harsh when traveling over bumps in the road,small or large. However in every other aspect of the car,it is awesome and I would not hesitate to buy another one ,once the suspension is retuned.
April 29, 2009A lot of luxury for the price. Owned a Lexus amd Mercedes prior and gave up nothing Love the warranty many confuse if for a MB or BMW that is fun. The NAV is a little quirky but OK to use
October 17, 2011The 2009 Genesis is great. It has all of the features you may be looking for. It rides very smoothly and it’s just a nice looking ride that is reliable. Can’t go wrong with a Genesis.
July 1, 2022No back up camera or GPS and only had one key when I bought it used
November 26, 2020Love this Car, Just burnt out the drivers side heated seat and the NAV screen has faded to the point of no return. Silver overlay on the door handles are peeling off and creating kind of a hazard for people trying to get out of the car. Could easily cut themselves. Its an old car but drives like a dream machine, Very smooth and solid vehicle. I would buy a G80 if I had the money.
