Big Audi-esque grille. From some angles the sensor for the adaptive cruise is overly obvious. The Hyundai Genesis 5.0 has larger wheels.
A little chunky at the ends, especially the tail end, but a big handsome sedan. The inspiration for much of the exterior of the Genesis is much more round.
The car's best angle, accentuating the forms through the body side while shrinking the heavy tail. The proportions of the Genesis are very much those of a rear-wheel-drive car.
Another good angle despite the excessive visual bulk in the rear fascia. Some BMW influence here. Lack of a kink in the rearmost side window aids outward visibility, but aesthetically weak.
The Genesis emulates the roof line of the A7 hatch more than that of the A6 sedan. The design inside the Genesis is a little plain. Real matte-finish wood with the top package.
Audi leads the industry with quietly tasteful interior design. Airier, more open than the Genesis. Tan interior feels warmer, but doesn't work as well with the aluminum console trim.
Straight across instrument panel enhances perceived roominess, but the tall, wide console does not. Big knob, touchscreen, or conventional knobs and buttons? All of the above!
Cushy and supportive driver seat with adjustable thigh support and thigh bolsters. The back seat could be more comfortably positioned, but it's nicely shaped and roomy.
The trunk is usefully large, but you can't fold the rear seat to expand it. Big aluminum block visible beneath the usual cover.
Usually I don't see the point of engine covers. This one is such a mess, though, that I see it. The V8 engine's installation is much cleaner and more attractive.
