The Hyundai Genesis coupe will be redesigned for 2013, and Hyundai plans for it to make it's debut at the Detroit Auto Show in January.  There's been heavy speculation as to what this return to the drawing board means for the 2013 model. Some think it could be cosmetic in nature, while others are hoping that it's more performance-driven. Hudson Hyundai, however, has great news: It's both!

New details are now making their rounds on the web concerning what's under the coupe's fresh, new hood, not about the sleek new exterior style. More specifically, the vehicle's two engine options gain some horsepower and torque, which is always welcome. But, the real heavy-hitting stat is seen in the transmission, and more specifically, in its number of speeds.

While previous iterations of the Hyundai Genesis Coupe have featured either a five- or six-speed transmission, the 2013 model is set to feature a newly-developed eight-speed automatic transmission. Of course, those who prefer to stick to a manual gear box can opt to keep its current six-speed manual as well. In other words, there's performance for everyone in next year's model.
