As our clients know, MHH International export new and used cars from the UK to countries around the globe. With a wide range of vehicles from major prestige brands, there is something to suit everyone. For example, in a world of SUV style vehicles, the saloon car (sedan) has become more of a niche model and niche is good for individuality.
For example, luxury car maker Genesis offer the G80 executive saloon. Alas, the petrol and diesel engines are being phased out now (although very recent, low mileage models are still available in the pre-owned market) as the new G80 Electrified has become the key model in the brand's portfolio. The latest Genesis G80 is the brand’s new all-electric luxury saloon. It offers a host of cutting-edge technologies, an elegant and distinctive design, and luxurious convenience features. It’s the most comprehensively equipped Genesis model yet.
The Premium Exterior
With distinctive design elements embodying the brand’s signature ‘Athletic Elegance’ philosophy, the Electrified G80’s bold, contemporary appearance has been elevated for Model Year 2025. Defined by Genesis’ trademark ‘Two-Lines’ design elements, connected at the front and rear by the characteristic parabolic side profile, many of the G80 Electrified's exterior panels have been reimagined to create a refined new look. The most significant update for the 2025 and onwards model is the exclusive extended wheelbase specification, increasing the overall length of the Electrified G80 by 130mm.
At the front, a new bumper design underlines the Electrified G80’s bold presence, alongside new twin-line quad headlights which are now equipped with advanced ‘Micro-Lens Array’ (MLA) lighting technology. As well as creating a defining design element, ‘MLA’ headlights offer greater lighting precision, using micro lenses to focus powerful LED units to deliver exceptional brightness from compact headlights. By eliminating the requirement for fog lights, ‘MLA’ headlights also allow a cleaner front bumper design, underlining the model’s contemporary appearance. The Crest Grille, has been reshaped with an enhanced G Matrix pattern to subtly communicate the all-electric power-train and create an imposing presence. Integrated into the Crest Grille, the front charging port now has electric opening and closing, built-in door heating, inlet lighting and a new charging indicator light.
The Electrified G80’s ‘Two-Line’ tail-lights have received new lighting graphics, and the redesigned rear bumper features new chrome highlights. All Electrified G80s feature new nineteen inch ‘Hyper Silver’ polished concave alloy wheels, with the new alloy wheel design working in combination with additional underbody fairings to create a smooth, uninterrupted aerodynamic surface, achieving a tiny drag coefficient figure of 0.25 Cd.
The Prestige Interior
Centred around the company’s ‘Beauty of White Space’ (their words) concept, inspired, we learn, by traditional Korean architecture, the Electrified G80 is now more elegant, luxurious and technologically advanced than ever, reinforcing the model’s premium positioning and exceptional craftsmanship. As with the exterior, the most striking update for this latest version is delivered by the extended wheelbase. Rear-seat passengers now experience a significantly enhanced sense of space, with much more leg and headroom. This really is travelling in style.
In the front, a new 27 inch panoramic connected car ‘Integrated Cockpit’ seamlessly connects the driver information, entertainment and navigation displays, creating an advanced, high-tech interior feel and increasing the total information area by 30%. The interface and all convenience features can be accessed via the touchscreen, a new crystal centre console rotary dial, or hands-free using voice recognition.
A new three-spoke, multifunction steering wheel is also included with heating function as standard. The Electrified G80’s interior is available in a choice of ‘Ecru Camel’ or ‘Obsidian Black’ colours in ‘Pure Leather’, with colour themes encompassing the seats, dashboard, door trims, steering wheel, headlining and carpet, creating an immersive, luxurious feel. Interior touchpoints have been refined by extended leather trim across the dashboard, door centre trim and roof grips. Optional Nappa leather specifications are also now available in various colours with upgraded materials and quilted stitching.
The optional Comfort Pack includes 18-way adjustable, heated and ventilated ‘Ergo Motion’ seats, featuring massage functions minimising fatigue and ensuring exceptional comfort, with configurable settings for intensity and frequency. The seats feature with no less than seven air chambers that can be adjusted to ensure maximum comfort and posture. Seat ergonomics are also optimised according to the selected drive mode: In ‘Comfort’, the bolstering is adjusted to make lateral support less pronounced, while ‘Sport’ mode brings a firmer shaping for more secure support of the body during dynamic driving. There’s a 2nd Row ‘Comfort Pack’ as well, elevating the luxurious rear-seat passenger experience to the next level, with opulent new features including a ‘Power Door Closing system’, rear blinds, rear centre armrest with control box, one-touch ‘Backlite’ power curtains, rear window electric sunshade and rear vanity mirrors.
Power
Available exclusively with an all-electric power-train, Electrified G80 delivers exceptional performance, with instant and powerful acceleration delivered in a seamless, super silent surge. New this year, all models are now underpinned by a new, 94.5 kWh battery, resulting in an impressive combined range of 354 miles (variable depending on the local environment, as always). Dual 136kW electric motors at the front and rear are each capable of producing up to 350Nm of torque, delivering a total power output of 272kW (Equivalent 365BHP / 370PS) through the refined all wheel drive power-train.
Capable of a 0-62mph sprint in just 5.1 seconds, the high-revving dual motors can propel the Electrified G80 to a maximum speed of 139mph. Both motors utilise the power electric (PE) system, consisting of the electric motor, transmission and an inverter. These three components are integrated into a single compact module, supporting exceptional power density and creating efficiencies in both space and weight. The front and rear electric motors are now optimised using an electromagnetic force compensation control design, meaning the latest Electrified G80 is now even quieter while on the move, without compromising on power delivery or efficiency.
Electrified G80 benefits from a multi-charging system that provides stable and straightforward recharging of the battery across a wide range of networks, including fast, rapid and ultra-fast devices. Powerful, 800-volt electrical architecture enables 800-volt and 400-volt charging without the need for additional components or adapters and allows for stable charging regardless of the infrastructure. Using ultra-fast charging, the battery can be charged from 10% to 80% in just 25 minutes, thanks to the Electrified G80’s uniquely flat charging curve that allows the quickest and most efficient use of energy.
Drive
The Electrified G80’s battery is mounted low between the front and rear axles, helping to deliver optimal weight distribution and a low centre of gravity. This supports both exceptional cornering performance and reassuring driving stability at high speed. The platform secures battery safety through a strong support structure, plus energy-absorbent sections of the body and chassis that combine with carefully designed load paths to protect the battery during an impact. Electrified G80 also benefits from a state-of-the-art battery conditioning function that manages the battery’s temperature to ensure optimal conditions.
