Hyundai's last V8 engine dead with new Genesis G90 – report

Hyundai's last V8 engine will be phased out by the end of this year in favour of smaller six-cylinder engines and turbocharging, new overseas reports claim. Korean publication AutoDaum claims the next-generation version of the Genesis G90 limousine – which currently isn't sold in Australia – won't be available with the 5.0-litre naturally-aspirated 'Tau' V8 offered with its predecessor, instead positioning the Hyundai group's 3.5-litre twin-turbo V6 as the flagship engine.
