Hyundai has released new promotional video for the European debut of the All-New Genesis Sedan rolling around the Nürburgring Nordschleife. The company declined to release the car’s time but announced the fact that the premium sedan has a Lotus-tuned chassis with a continuous damping control system.

The European Genesis is expected to debut at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show earlier next month.

For the US-market, the 2015 Genesis be offered with two different engines. The 3.8-liter V6 with 311 hp and 293 lb-ft (397 Nm) of torque, and the top model will use a 5.0-liter V8 engine with a total output of 420 hp and 383 lb-ft (519 Nm) of torque.
