Hyundai Genesis Coupe to debut in Super Bowl ad

Hyundai has released its first two television advertisements for the new 2010 Genesis Coupe during the Super Bowl XLIII on Sunday. The two 30-second ads are both variations on the same theme -- what Hyundai calls "the Epic Lap". The ads will feature music from cellist Yo-YoMa, with the Genesis Coupe pulling some dance moves too. The real driving acrobatics are performed by race car driver Rhys Millen, a Pike's Peak record holder.

Rhetorical ads aside, the upcoming Genesis Coupe, which will be offered with either a 210-horsepower (220 with premium fuel) 2.0L turbocharged four or a 306 hp 3.8L V6 driving the rear wheels. Considering how cool Hyundai's other Genesis Coupe commercials have been, we're looking forward to seeing this one too. You can count us among the millions of viewers who'll be tuning into the big game on Sunday, Feb. 1st, regardless of who happens to be playing.
