Hyundai has released pricing for it’s Lexus LS 460 competitor (some might say knock-off–but then the same could be said of the first LS), and I rushed the figures into TrueDelta’s pricing database. I believe this makes TrueDelta the first site where you can configure–much less compare–pricing for the Genesis.
A few results:
Compared to a similarly loaded BMW 550i, the Genesis is $24,630 less before adjusting for feature differences, and about $25,900 less afterwards. And this is before an upcoming price increase at BMW.
Doing the same with a Lexus LS 460, we get differences of $28,200 (before adjusting for feature differences) and $28,600 (after).
Running the same comparison with an Infiniti M45, probably the least expensive direct competitor, we get differences of $11,400 (before adjusting for feature differences) and $14,100 (after).
I am not sure I have a complete list of Genesis features, as I only have the list Hyundai has released. If someone notices an omission, please contact me. For example, I’m assuming that the wood in the Genesis is not real.
