2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe V6 Track Retest.[현대 제네시스 쿠페 3.8 트랙튠 버전 리테스트-에드먼즈 닷컴.]

원문기사[에드먼즈닷컴] 보기

A couple weeks ago we ran a full test on the 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe V6 Track. It ran respectable numbers,
but not the kind of times we expected from a 300+ horsepower, rear-wheel drive coupe of its size.

Hyundai was disappointed too. So they went through the car following our track session looking for answers.
What Hyundai's engineers found was a rear wheel alignment that was off spec and worn front tires paired with new rears.

Another problem was the car's ECU. It was programmed for damage control, not 0-to-60mph runs,
so it was cutting power when it was needed most. We complained about this system in the test article and were sure the car would accelerate quicker if the damage control system was backed off a bit.

Hyundai agreed and made a running change to the ECU that keeps it from cutting in during fast shifts. Hyundai is fast at work reflashing all the cars now at dealers and at the port (If you're one of the few that has already bought a Genesis Coupe, call your dealer and they'll reflash your car for free).  They also offered to mount some new tires and made sure they were pointed straight too.

Then they asked if we wouldn't mind running the car again. We said yes. Did it help? See for yourself after the jump.

[위의 수치중 가운데 빨간색으로 표시된것이 이번에 새로 테스트한 결과를 표시한것임.]

기사의 내용은 간단합니다.
몇주전(2월10일) 에드먼즈 닷컴에서 제네시스 쿠페와 G37쿠페를 테스트 하였고,
그 결과에서 제네시스 쿠페의 몇몇 문제점[마력대비 가속성능]에 관해 현대측에서는 실망을 하였고,
그로인해 새로운 재 조정을 하였다고 합니다.

일단 ECU프로그램, 뒷바퀴 얼라이먼트 재 조정,타이어변경 등이며 ..발진 가속 성능과 제동성능이 향상 되었습니다.
[여기까지 간단한 기사 내용]
위의 표를 보시면 아시겠지만, 제동력 수치에서 1ft[30.48cm]라는건 생각외로 큰 차이를 말합니다.
정지를 하느냐 추돌을 하느냐는 10cm만 차이가 나도 결정되는 중대한 결과 이기 때문이지요.

여튼 이로 인해 현대는 전혀 상반된 두개의 평가를 받고 있던데[미국].. 하나는 차량을 너무 허술하게 만들었다는것과,
다른 하나는 그래도 문제점이 발견되자 해결하려는 노력이 가상하다 라는...^^;;
좀더 완벽한 셋팅이 되어 멋진 차량으로 거듭나길 바랍니다.
