Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8

The Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 reaches 60 mph in 5.67 s and covers a standing quarter mile in 14.17 s, tripping the lights at 100.2 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.35 s and the eighth mile in 9.20 s, reaching 100 mph in 14.10 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Genesis Coupe 3.8

The 2009 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated coupe of 1,575 kg with 306 bhp, which works out at 194 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 194 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.35 s. Against the 2,929 cars in the set it is the 1,771st quickest to 60 mph, and the 7th quickest of the 24 Hyundais here. Its 100.2 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-09-01. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
