2021 Genesis G80 vs 2017 Genesis G80
Comparison Driving, Exterior & Interior Design

The all-new Genesis G80 sets a new standard in executive mid-size sedan luxury and represents the core of the brand.

Boasting the Smart Cruise Control with machine learning, the G80 emulates its owner’s driving style. The car’s 8-speed automatic SHIFTRONIC® transmission with steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters is paired with available All Wheel Drive and a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6, taking sophisticated driving to the next level.

The Genesis G80's platform represents a brand-exclusive, third-generation, rear-wheel drive platform with a design that lowers the body and the center of gravity to secure a wider cabin and improved driving stability.
The use of lightweight materials was a distinct focus. Aluminum is used for about 19 percent of the body, reducing the weight by 125 kg compared to the previous one, thus increasing fuel efficiency and performance.

The luxury midsize sedan's ample width gives it an imposing presence, complemented by full LED quad headlamps designed to echo the Genesis emblem.

On the side, the Parabolic Line, which begins at the front Quad Lamp and gradually runs lower to the rear through the top of the door, is inspired by the elegant look of several venerable classic cars. This elegant line is counter-balanced by athletic "power lines" emphasizing the strength of fender volume and the upfitted 20-inch wheels. In addition, the chrome trim beginning from behind the front wheels stretches out along at the bottom of the door, crosses the side sills and swells upwards to the rear, strengthening forward visual motion.

The rear view features a dramatic, tapered look - highlighted by a sloping decklid and rear Quad Lamps which visually link to those in front. Chrome decor at the top of the trunk stretches the full-width repeating the theme of the Genesis emblem, while the dual exhaust finishers reference the Crest Grill design.

The steering wheel and sleek, thin air vents run across the passenger compartment splitting it into the panoramic area above and the control area below. The number of hard buttons and switches was intentionally kept to a minimum, both for aesthetic purposes and ease of use.

In the panoramic area, a heads-up display, a 12.3-inch cluster and a 14.5-inch infotainment system display necessary information while driving.

The control area is equipped with an intuitive suite of interfaces: a Genesis integrated controller for HVAC controls, a rotary-operated electronic shift dial and touch-and-write infotainment system.

Genesis G80's leading interior space has been further developed. Both headroom and legroom were increased by lowering the seating height of the second row, allowing for both more interior room and a more dramatic roofline. Completing the space, the Genesis G80 features leather seating, steering wheel surfaces, soft-touch fabrics and coatings as well as open pore wood trim finishes.
