GENESIS HAS ANNOUNCED THE START OF SALES in Korea for the newly designed Electrified G80, marking the first model update in three years.
It’s the first time the Electrified G80 has been redesigned since its initial debut in July 2021.
The latest model, which was unveiled at this year’s Beijing Auto Show on April 25 and at the Busan International Mobility Show on June 27, comes with an elongated body and numerous design and technology updates, setting a new standard for the luxury electric sedan.
Exterior: Athletic Elegance in its Finest Form
The newly designed Electrified G80 boasts design upgrades down to the most minute details, capturing the essence of Genesis’ design philosophy, “Athletic Elegance.”
The front fascia features the brand’s iconic G-Matrix Crest Grille with a new gradient pattern along with enlarged air intakes and Two-Line Micro Lens Array (MLA) headlamps.
Located on the upper right-hand corner of the bumper, the charging port blends more seamlessly with the Crest Grille, with the cover now opening and closing with a simple touch of a button. Its upgraded inner cover and lighting exude a more sophisticated feel, while a heating function inside the port ensures convenient charging under any weather conditions.
On the side, the new Electrified G80 impresses with its extended wheelbase of 3140mm, which is 130mm longer than the previous version. The addition of exclusive 19-inch wheels enhances the model’s luxurious appeal and improves aerodynamic performance.
The rear of the vehicle has been refined to showcase a cleaner bumper design, with new chrome accents running across the side of the vehicle and bumper, completing a sleeker image.
The model comes in 10 different exterior colour options, including the exclusive “Matira Blue.”
