Hyundai/Kia have no history of building good handling and driver communicable cars, so I don't really have any high hopes for this car. The Genesis coupe was a sad exercise in hopeless driver disconnect with a sloppy gear level.
One can hope this is an improvement, but Hyundai/Kia also have a history of developing overweight cars so I don't expect this to be under 4,000 lbs. And the lack of manual transmission offering is unfortunate - seems they're not targeting BMW.

That doesn't make it one! I have never seen a quasi sports car block the sun or moon but there was one named as such.
