Chassis: “Genesis Coupe’s body shell is rich in ultra-high-tensile steel. Genesis Coupe is lighter than the Infiniti G37, and its chassis is also 24 percent stiffer in bending rigidity than the BMW E46 M3. Rear-wheel drive provides a 55:45 front/rear weight distribution.”

Engine: From Edmunds, “…Hyundai will be offering both a 310-horsepower 3.8-liter V6 and a 223-hp, 2.0-liter, turbocharged, inline four-cylinder in the 2010 Genesis Coupe. Not surprisingly, the 2.0-liter turbo got most of the attention from the tuners, and since the engine itself is a direct relation of the 2.0-liter in the Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart and Evolution X, most weren’t seeing it for the first time.”

“…the all-aluminum 3.8-liter V6 in the Genesis is capable of 310 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 263 pound-feet of torque at 4,700 rpm. The Infiniti’s 3.7-liter V6 makes 330 hp and 270 lb-ft…”

“…(n)evertheless, the base-model Genesis has a 2.0-liter, turbocharged inline four-cylinder. With 223 hp at 6,000 rpm and 217 lb-ft of torque at 2,500…”

Brakes: From Edmunds, “The high-performance disc brakes from Brembo will be available as part of an optional track-use performance package on the Genesis Coupe. No word yet on pricing for this option. The Genesis Coupe is set to go on sale in September in Korea, followed by a North American launch in spring 2009.”

“Fixed monobloc four-piston Brembo calipers clamp down on 13.4-inch front brake rotors and 13-inch rear rotors on SE models. All other models get substantial 12.6-inch front ventilated rotors and 12.4-inch rotors in the rear with floating single piston calipers.”

Transmission: “Both engines are mated to a standard six-speed manual transmission. The Genesis Coupe 2.0t offers an optional five-speed automatic with SHIFTRONIC® while the 3.8-litre V6 offers a ZF six-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC to handle the additional torque.

Drivers can access the SHIFTRONIC® feature by moving the gear selector into a separate gate. Pushing the selector forward or pulling it rearward will shift the transmission up or down sequentially, adding to driver control. A clear LCD readout on the instrument panel shows the gear that’s in use.”

Limited-slip differential

Suspension: “Genesis Coupe employs a MacPherson strut dual-link front suspension and a five-link rear suspension setup. The front suspension is mounted to the body via a solid subframe which is lighter and stronger than a multi-piece component would be. To help reduce body roll and tune the Genesis Coupe’s at-the-limit handling for maximum predictability, 23-mm diameter front and 18-mm diameter rear stabilizer bars are used.”

Wheels/Tires: “The top-line SE model … will also come with 19″ wheels, whereas other models will come with 18″ wheels.”

Lots of good reading, here, from Hyundai Australia.
