Hyundai Supports Genesis With Strong Leasing Option

Hyundai expects leasing to account for half the Genesis sedans you’ll see on the road, and it’s given the $33,000 car an excellent lease option: The Genesis can be yours for two years with $2,199 up front and $399 a month for 24 months.

The Genesis got a strong rating from ALG, and for a luxury vehicle this deal fares pretty well — especially when you consider the fact that Hyundai names the Cadillac CTS as a competitor. The Genesis lease is between $100 and $150 per month less than the CTS, although Cars.com reviewer Mike Hanley says the Genesis compares more to the Chrysler 300 or Toyota Avalon.

The deal is only for the V-6 version, and it runs through July. The V-8 version will go on sale in August.
