Well, look what we have here. While looking through all the cars that are going to officially unveiled at the 2010 Geneva Auto Show, we noticed that most of the big unveils were hybrids. We’re not talking about a sneak peak at the 2012 Toyota Prius, or a Ford Fusion Hybrid Coupe. The hybrids being unveiled are either luxurious four-doors from nameplates like BMW and Mercedes-Benz, or super cars straight outta Stuttgart and Modena.

To celebrate, the company best known for econo-boxes is looking to go head to head with the big boys by introducing their new rear-wheel drive Genesis platform. Their first Genesis offering touching down in the states will be the amazingly priced 4.6 and 3.8 Sedan, followed later by the coupe. Hyundai threw Complex the keys and we took this recession special for a ride. Read the full review and check out a gallery below.
