What's New in the 2022 Hyundai Genesis?
After a full redesign last year, the Genesis makes only minor changes for 2016. HID headlights are now standard on the Genesis V6, while last year's Ultimate option package is newly standard on V8 models.

We like the whole Genesis lineup, from the base 3.8 to the fully loaded 5.0 Ultimate. The former delivers full-size luxury at the price of a small European sport sedan, while the latter nips at the heels of BMWs and Benzes. This Hyundai is a real contender.

How Much Does a 2022 Hyundai Genesis Cost?
The 2016 Hyundai Genesis sedan is offered in three trim levels that correspond to powertrain choice: 3.8, 3.8 AWD and 5.0. The
Genesis 3.8 ($39,700) comes remarkably well equipped right out of the box, boasting standard luxuries such as 18-inch alloy wheels, dual power-folding heated mirrors with Genesis-logo-adorned puddle lamps, an electroluminescent gauge cluster with a 4.2-in thin-film-transistor (TFT) screen, HID headlights, wood-grain accents,
dual-zone automatic temperature control, leather upholstery, 12-way power heated front seats with lumbar adjustments, a 7-speaker audio system with Bluetooth streaming audio and an 8-in touchscreen interface with a navigation system and a rotary controller on the center console. The
Genesis
3.8 AWD ($42,200) adds all-wheel drive, headlight washers, heated rear seats and a heated steering wheel. The
Genesis 5.0 Ultimate ($54,800) is newly renamed for 2016, as it includes last year's Ultimate package as standard equipment. It reverts to rear-wheel drive but throws in a slew of upgrades, including 19-in alloy wheels, LED fog lights, quad exhaust tips, a panoramic sunroof, adaptive cruise control, front and rear parking sensors, a power rear sunshade, a larger 7-in TFT screen between the gauges, matte-finished wood interior trim, premium leather upholstery, ventilated front seats, a power trunk lid, a head-up display, a larger center screen, an electronic parking brake, a 16-way power driver's seat with adjustable side bolsters and a cushion extender, driver memory settings, a power adjustable steering wheel and a 17-speaker Lexicon surround-sound audio system. Many of the 5.0's standard features are available on the 3.8 models via the Signature and Tech packages, though be advised that if you add both (the latter requires the former), it'll pump up the price by a whopping $7,500. The 3.8 Ultimate package tacks on a head-up display, a 9.2-in HD touchscreen, 17-speaker Lexicon audio, a carbon-dioxide sensor with automatic air circulation and a power trunk lid. Trunk capacity in the Genesis is a generous 15.3 cu ft. Notably, the Ultimate package's power trunk senses when you're standing behind the car with the key fob and automatically opens after 3 seconds; it's a neat feature when your hands are full.
