How fast can the Hyundai V8 Genesis sedan do 0-60?
I know the V6 Genesis coupe can do it in 5.7 sec, which is quite disappointing for the spec numbers Hyundai has been posting. I wonder how fast the V8 sedan, which is much heavier than the coupe and supposedly luxurious, can do this.
I’ve heard that the 2010 Taurus SHO, which is priced at the same level as the V8 Genesis and weighs a slightly more, can do 0-60 in 5.3 seconds (another auto magazine got it at 5.7). Maybe we can use this figure as a benchmark.
0-60 & QUARTER MILE performance for some similar size models.
