Genesis Electrified G80 Redesign: A New Era of Luxury Electric Sedans Launched in Korea

Genesis has officially launched the redesigned Electrified G80 in Korea, marking the first major update to the model since its debut in July 2021. This launch not only introduces significant enhancements in design and technology but also sets a new benchmark for luxury electric sedans.

The unveiling of the latest Electrified G80 took place at this year’s Beijing Auto Show and the Busan International Mobility Show, showcasing an elongated body that epitomizes luxury and cutting-edge updates that are poised to redefine the electric vehicle (EV) market.

Exterior Innovations: Synthesis of Form and Function

The exterior of the Electrified G80 has been meticulously upgraded to reflect Genesis' design philosophy of "Athletic Elegance." The front of the car features the updated G-Matrix Crest Grille with a striking new gradient pattern and enlarged air intakes that enhance the vehicle’s assertive stance. The integration of Two-Line Micro Lens Array (MLA) headlamps and a seamlessly designed charging port that opens with a simple touch enhances both aesthetics and functionality.

The side profile is distinguished by a longer wheelbase—now 3,140 millimeters—and new exclusive 19-inch wheels that not only add to the vehicle’s luxurious allure but also boost its aerodynamic efficiency. The rear design complements this with a cleaner bumper and elegant chrome accents that underscore the sophisticated design ethos of Genesis.

Interior: A Sanctuary of High-Tech Luxury

Inside, the Electrified G80 offers a sanctuary of luxury, where space and technology converge to create an unparalleled passenger experience. The increase in the vehicle's length provides substantially more legroom and headroom, making every journey a comfortable experience. A standout feature is the 27-inch OLED display that merges the cluster and infotainment systems into one seamless interface, enhancing both functionality and driver engagement.

High-tech amenities extend to a touch-based HVAC system, a crystal-shaped Shift By Wire (SBW), and a Central Control Panel (CCP), all designed for intuitive use and superior comfort. The vehicle also features a premium 17-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system equipped with Dolby Atmos technology, elevating the auditory experience to match the visual and tactile luxury.

Innovative Driving Features and Extended Range

Genesis has equipped the new Electrified G80 with advanced technologies that enhance both driving pleasure and range. The vehicle features a 94.5-kilowatt-hour fourth-generation battery that offers a range of up to 475 kilometers on a single charge, according to Korean EV certification standards. Enhancements such as upgraded suspension bushings and the Road-Preview Electronic Control Suspension (Preview ECS) contribute to a smooth and stable ride.

Additionally, the Electrified G80 includes an Electrically Assisted Dynamic Torque Vectoring (eDTVC) system and Rear Wheel Steering (RWS) that improve handling and agility, making it ideal for navigating tight spaces and executing precise maneuvers.

Sound Design and Safety Innovations

The redesign also introduces the Electric Vehicle Active Sound Design (e-ASD), which features two new engine sounds, "Horizon" and "Heritage: Black," tailored to enhance the driving experience by providing auditory feedback that complements the vehicle's performance. Safety and convenience are further bolstered by features such as Fingerprint Authentication System, 3-Zone+ Climate Control, and a Digital Key 2, setting new standards in vehicle security and personal comfort.
