The Hyundai Genesis (Korean: 현대 제네시스) is a rear-wheel drive, full-size luxury car that first appeared as a concept car for the 2007 New York International Auto Show.

Hyundai is in the process of introducing the vehicle worldwide, known internally as the BH model, and will market the Genesis as a "premium sports sedan," in one body style with three possible engines.

Hyundai targets 55,000 sales of the Genesis in 2008 (35,000 in Korea and another 20,000 overseas) and 45,000 in 2009. According to the Hyundai Chairman and CEO Chung Mong-koo, the Genesis is Hyundai's entry into the European dominated luxury arena.

According to Hyundai Vice Chairman Kim Dong-jin, the name Genesis is a reflection that the vehicle is the first of many premium cars the company will introduce.
