Why is the Z slower than comparable cars?

Genesis 14.4

Now these are just average. With a better driver, you can get down lower. With a stock base sport Z, there has been a few who have got down to 12.8-13 seconds. However, that is just internet proof.

This is just showing you an average, not accurate result of where we stand.

There is a new evo coming out a final edition that will be pretty quick, and if I remember correctly, hyundai was planning something with the genesis. Sooner or later, the Z will be on the bottom of the list.
