2013 Hyundai Genesis 3 8limited

The 2013 Genesis is Hyundai's rear-drive luxury sedan, the one that put the brand on the map against the likes of the BMW 5 Series and Mercedes E-Class. It's a big, comfortable cruiser that eats up highway miles, and the steering is light and easy around town. Inside, the cabin is quiet and well-built, with soft-touch materials and supportive seats that make long trips a breeze. Owners report strong reliability and low maintenance costs, though some note the leather can age quickly and the rear seats don't fold down. The 3 8limited gives you the 3.8L I6 and a long list of luxury features for thousands less than the R Spec, which swaps in a 5.0L V8 and a sportier suspension. The 3.8L I6 makes 333 horsepower and pairs with an eight-speed automatic, and the rear-drive layout keeps the steering feel direct and natural. Expect 22 mpg combined from this powertrain, which is reasonable for a large sedan, and the ride is tuned for comfort rather than cornering sharpness.
