2024 Genesis G80 and G90 Earn Top Safety Pick+ Honors from IIHS

May 19, 2024

The 2024 Genesis G80 sedan and G90 flagship sedan have been awarded the prestigious TOP SAFETY PICK+ (TSP+) recognition by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). This accolade applies to models built after October 2023, following modifications to the rear seat belts to enhance rear occupant protection. Vehicles manufactured before this date still qualify for the TOP SAFETY PICK award.

A Commitment to Safety

IIHS' top safety award identifies the best vehicle choices for safety within size categories each year. The Genesis G80 and G90 were upgraded from their previous TOP SAFETY PICK ranking to the highest TSP+ status, joining the 2024 Genesis GV60 and GV80 with top honors.

Brian Latouf, global chief safety and quality officer for Genesis, emphasized the brand's dedication to safety, stating, “The top IIHS rating for G80 and Genesis G90 vehicles built after October 2023 proves our commitment to safety remains firm. With two more vehicles added to the growing lineup of Genesis models proudly bearing the TOP SAFETY PICK+ designation, customer safety remains a top commitment for the brand.”

IIHS TSP+ Requirements

To qualify for the IIHS TSP+, a vehicle must meet the following criteria:

  • Good ratings in the small overlap front and updated side tests
  • Acceptable or good headlights standard across all trims
  • Advanced or superior ratings for pedestrian front crash prevention

Additionally, for the TSP+ award, vehicles need an acceptable or good rating in the updated moderate overlap front test, while a good rating in the original moderate overlap front test suffices for the lower-tier TOP SAFETY PICK.

  • Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection: Helps mitigate collision risks with detected vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists.
  • Lane Keeping Assist and Blind-Spot Collision Warning: Enhances driver awareness and prevents potential impacts.
