Lease A Loaded Luxury Sedan For Mainstream Car Money: Genesis From $296/Month, $0 Down (Expired)
Thanks go to Leasehackr reader kmdukez for sharing this deal; he managed to lease a demo Genesis sedan for $229 per month, including taxes and fees, with $0 drive-off.
Next year, Hyundai will launch Genesis, a new luxury brand aimed squarely at the likes of Lexus and Infiniti. The lineup will initially consist of two cars: G80, a midsize luxury sedan that's currently sold as the Hyundai Genesis, and G90, the all-new flagship with Mercedes-Benz S-Class in its crosshairs.
Even with its humble Hyundai badge, which many replace with the Genesis winged emblem, the current Genesis sedan is a legitimate luxury contender. It rides on a dedicated rear-wheel drive platform (all-wheel drive optional) and comes with levels of equipment you expect from a car of this class. And now, thanks to increased incentives, you can lease a nicely equipped Genesis sedan for mainstream money.
