The original design of Hyundai Genesis sedan
Car fans around the world are very well aware of Hyundai intentions to shed it’s poor image and become a tier one automaker. Hyundai Genesis Coupe and Genesis sedan will be the key models to revitalize the brand’s image. Hyundai informed us more or less about everything related to it’s key cars. Pricing lists, standard features, engines options, every detail should be found on the web as of now.
What’s interesting about the Genesis sedan and perhaps, less familiar to automotive fans, is the fact that development process of the best Hyundai ever lasted longer than it normally does. It took Hyundai almost five years to develope it’s first true luxury sedan. The development process lasted so long actually, that the original Genesis design already lost it’s appeal.
Before it’s official launch Hyundai decided the vehicle needs a heavy exterior makeover (bravo Hyundai!) and pumped another $50 millions to redesign it’s exterior.
These two pics show you the Hyundai Genesis sedan before the redesign.

also if this design was released as the genesis … Hyundai would never be taken seriously as a luxury car maker
