For 2012, the Genesis will receive a facelift, as well as a new 5.0-liter V8 rated at 429-horsepower and 376 pound-feet of torque and 8 spd transmission, V6 gets bumped up to 305 hp. Not sure why the uprated V6 didn't get installed on the Genesis sedan, since the Genesis coupe uses the same uprated engine.

Can't wait for that model!

Facelifted pic here; seems to incorporate design language from the present 2011 Sonata.
