Official Hyundai blog reveals refreshed Genesis Coupe

TopGear.com.ph Philippine Car News - Official Hyundai blog reveals refreshed Genesis Coupe

Remember the supposed facelift of the Hyundai Genesis Coupe that the privately-owned Hyundai-Blog.com revealed last September? It apparently is the real deal as the carmaker's official Korean-language blog, Blog.Hyundai.com, has released a couple of close-up photos of the refreshed two-door sports coupe.

From what we gathered on the blog post as translated by Google Chrome, the new Genesis Coupe will make its official debut on November 12 at what is being called as the Chonnam National Yeongam F1 Speed Festival.

Though the post didn't reveal if the updated Genesis Coupe received anything more than a cosmetic makeover, we have to say that the front fascia, though looking a tad busy, looks good and gives the car a more aggressive look.

Do you like it or loathe it? Let us know what you think of it in the comment box below.

    not bad.... only that it somewhat has the resemblance of the rest of it's brothers along the Hyundai fleet.... they all look the same now...

    Like because of better design.
    Unlike because Hyundai applied their signature front fascia.

    with this I like it now. It depends on color scheme, blackened grille bar make it stunning...

    i honestly think the front is too busy but it looks aggressive....and im amazed at how that front end amazingly worked in literally every hyundai car (including the sonata in hybrid form in the US) from their small cars to their small sports cars to suvs (which seem to be the same in the upcoming santa fe) to their compact car and the genesis..

      it's called core design

        well it may be good that they have a core design but for me, every car needs to have its own identity just like the classic cars. For me they're starting to look like evolving pokemons. HAHA but that's just my opinion.

    @maklo02, Yes, so buyers of a P1.9M Genesis Coupe V6 can brag that their car has the same face as a Hyudna i10... wait, I think its the other way around. lol

    one way to differentiate the hexagonal grill from the rest of the hyundai fleet is to keenly observe the headlamps. i think the headlamps are the distinguishing factor.

    I hope the 274hp 2.0 turbo in the Sonata would make it into this car! It looks beautiful, and it'd be perfect with that engine! :)

    why does hyundai love to make their cars look the same? i think that they are imitating porsche.
