New Hyundai Genesis Launched in China
Hyundai launched their new coupe in China earlier today, except it has dropped the Genesis branding and opted for the Rohens Coupe moniker. The Genesis name was dropped for China, and replaced with the Rohens name, the sedan went on the market in August 2008 priced from 390,000rmb to slightly over 500,000rmb.
The Rohens Coupe starts at a rather cheap 190,000rmb for the base 2.0 Turbo manual model, price are as follows:
2.0T Manual 190,000rmb
2.0T Automatic 220,000rmb
2.0T Luxury Automatic 250,000rmb
3.8 Luxury Automatic 300,900rmb
3.8 Flagship 320,500rmb
The low pricing, which is on par with the Hyundai Coupe means that Hyundai could continue with its strangle hold on the ‘low priced’ coupe segment which Chinese manufacturers such as Brilliance have tried to crack but failed.

haha, thats such a random name.
Whats wrong with the genesis?
It is so amazing that they manage to sell a 212hp FR Coupe at below RMB200k… But coupe is still not a type of car with big volume but hope that car like this can help to set new image for their brand!
this will be a big hit, the yanks are amazed by this car, they gave it both safest car and car of the year award. if chinese start using this car as a benchmark, then they are truly no compromise, first class
I must say that Rohens coupe looks really good!
Though it’s also taken some styling cues from Buick Regal/Opel Insignia and other cars.
I havent seen a standard Rohens sedan yet, let alone the coupe. I shall look harder.
