Genesis premieres the Electrified G80

Genesis has unveiled its first electric vehicle.

The Electrified G80 builds on the heritage of the G80 while offering customers an alternative electric powertrain, using the latest technologies to deliver high levels of performance and convenience.

350kW rapid charging will enables the battery of the Electrified G80 to charge from 10% to 80% state-of-charge in just 22 minutes

The Electrified G80 delivers exceptional range and convenience for customers. Based on the NEDC standard, the estimated maximum range per charge is more than 500km (Based on the Korean EV certification system, the company estimated number is 427km. Range may vary based on region.). 350kW rapid charging meanwhile, enables the battery to charge from 10% to 80% in just 22 minutes.

The Electrified G80 comes standard with all-wheel drive, creating powerful performance. This allows customers to enjoy dynamic driving, with acceleration from standstill to 96km/h accomplished in just 4.9 seconds.

The car also comes with a Disconnector Actuator System that can also connect or disconnect motor and drive shaft based on different driving conditions, enabling the vehicle to switch between RWD and AWD to reduce unnecessary power loss and increase efficiency. The Electrified G80’s efficiency is 4.3km/kWh when equipped with 19-inch wheels.

The G80 offers a 400V/800V multi rapid charging system, allowing customers to use various charging infrastructures. Its driving motor and inverter are able to boost the level of voltage from 400V up to 800V, which is more optimised level for the system, providing a more stable charge. Thanks to this, customers can use a 800V rapid charging system with no need for an additional converter, and also a 400V charger.

The cabin of the Electrified G80 utilises various natural or recycled materials

The Electrified G80 also utilises the Active Noise Control-Road technology, which reduces the level of noise significantly by measuring and analysing road noises and creating soundwaves of the opposite frequency simultaneously.

Electronic Control Suspension with Road Preview, the adaptive suspension system that can be controlled by information supplied through the front-facing camera, also helps to create an optimal, smooth driving experience.

Genesis sourced various natural or recycled materials for its interior, such as leather with natural dyes for the seats, console, and rear seat armrest, eco-friendly natural wood trim with recycled wood, and environment-friendly, recycled Polyethylene terephthalate fabrics.
