No discomfort noted on several trips of 250+ miles. Adjustable lumbar support is very nice (not just in/out, but also up/down). see full review |

First, I am a tall person and the seatbelt height adjustment does not go high enough, so if an accident should occur I believe that the shoulder belt will slip off. Also, the seats could be built more comfortable, more sporty. see full review |

The Genesis provides spirited performance when required. The vehicle changes smoothly throughout the gears and seems to accelerate effortlessly when required for passing on the highway. see full review |

Excellent acceleration potential and extremely smooth upshifts/downshifts. An incredible amount of power and torque available on tap, delivered smoothly and eagerly. see full review |

The V8 is incredibly quick but smooth at the same time. Exhilarating acceleration, without head jerking transmission shifts. see full review |

Only issue is the "learned" throttle response over time when pulling out into traffice (to save gas!). My Mercedes does the same thing see full review |

This is a major disappointment for me. The select shift is really is a waste of space, because the Genesis shifts when it chooses, not when I would prefer. That is both up shifts and downshifts. It this was corrected, it would greatly improve the car. see full review |
