0-100 MPH in 5.2 Seconds 2012 Hyundai Genesis 5.0 V8 0-60

[grandravermc]

AWESOME engine though! Nice video too, man. ENJOY your new 5-liter Bad-Boy sedan buddy!

[grandravermc]

did you check out the R-Spec? Why didn't you opt the extra $1000..?

[Stuff4Guys]

@grandravermc I wanted it in white and with the tan interior, neither are available in the R-spec... and the R-spec would of been cheaper!

[dclaver2]

I counted 11 1/2 seconds

[necessaryevil101]

@dclaver2, are u kidding? no human is that stupid........

[dclaver2]

@necessaryevil101 He started accelerating at 0:10 and hit 100 at 0:22

Why do people think the second gear is so bad? Short gear spacing HELPS the 0-60 time

[HeffernanProductions]

pretty impressive! most cars slow down a lot around 60, this one just kept going!

[yellowcow13]

Really sweet car. Seems as if the Rspec isnt much of a handler considering the ride. Very nice car you got though.

[kalit8001]

"0-100 MPH in 5.2 Seconds" My ass. Buy a new stopwatch. Hyundai sucks at building cars.

[1adamcoley]

@kalit8001 haha, yeah, theres no way that was 0-100 in 5.2. maybe 0-60

[7477238]

Man this thing moves nice. ZF put an 8 speed in the Dodge Charger but since the engine was tuned so piss poor by the engineers the shift points look like something you'd get from a 4 speed auto.

[chrisair2112]

impressive :)

and i thought 2nd gear was great :)

[skaterboy520c]

What a horrible 2nd gear

[ilk123]

@skaterboy520c

You're retarded. Infinity G's have the same kinda 2nd gear but i bet you would admire that since it doesnt have a hyundai emblem :P

[goblokk]

The genesis is a better car then the Infinity.

[drippinblood28]

@skaterboy520c seriously, what's up with it haha?

[skaterboy520c]

@drippinblood28 lol whats up with it? look for yourself 0:13

[drippinblood28]

@skaterboy520c no haha, i saw it too. i know it's extremely short for some reason, basically like another 1st gear. I was just agreeing with you...just came out wrong over text

[skaterboy520c]

@drippinblood28 i mean i guess its 2nd gear. it kinda sounds like transmission slip though. but it is a new car so i doubt that

[abh015]

@skaterboy520c hyundai made the second gear short and the first gear longer in order to increase accleration

[zenrael]

Dear Hyundai,

Please put this engine in something that doesn't weigh so much. Something low and sleek, something like the gen coupe. 

[TaurusSHO97]

@zenrael Hate to tell you, but it wouldn't fit in the coupe.

[YiJustin558]

@TaurusSHO97 yeah it would; rhys millen's team did it

[johnbellii]

@TaurusSHO97 That's ok, the GM LS2 does.

[zenrael]

@TaurusSHO97 already been done.

[TheDylanmorrison]

confusing title, and confusing on if its an r-spec or not

[RobLocJr]

@ 20044runner it shifts no different than the 8speed v6 charger

[20044runner]

Interesting gearing, glad to see that they are making use of all 8 gears.

[Coupydog]

"Pretty fast", he says? I'd say it was incredible, the way it accelerated from 60 to near 100mph! What (comparable) car is this passenger used to, pls don't say a Mustang GT?

[sid203]

Sorry dude, but it's just not the same if it isn't an R Spec

[korandoyasser]

Yes she is really fast ,

you said 5.0 non r-spec , did you mean it's genesis with 5.0 engine and without the harder suspension of r-spec ?

i hope you enjoy it forever : )

[Stuff4Guys]

Yes, usually the 5.0 is only found in the r-spec models. This is the first model that I know of that has the 5.0, which is the new replacement of the 4.6. The two most distinguishing features that differ from the r-spec is that it is white, which is not available in r-spec and that it has cashmere interior which is also not available in the r-spec.
