Genesis G80 global debut imminent

All-new large luxury sedan on sale here by September

It’s due on sale in Australia in the third quarter of this year, but so far we’ve only seen official renderings and sneaky spy shots of the all-new Genesis G80.

That’s about to change, with an official Genesis teaser video confirming the third-generation large sedan will make its global online debut on March 30 – next Monday.

We still don’t know exactly what will power the 2021 Genesis G80, but we expect it to borrow the 3.3-litre petrol V6 from its smaller G70 sibling and at least one of the three engines that will power the new Genesis GV80 large SUV.

These include a 2.5-litre turbo-petrol four-cylinder, a 3.5-litre twin-turbo petrol V6 or an inline 3.0-litre six-cylinder turbo-diesel.

Taking some of its styling and design cues from the upcoming GV80, including new quad headlights and tail-lights, the G80 also gets larger 20-inch wheels and a bunch of chrome garnishes around its sleek exterior.

The 2021 Genesis G80 will also get more technology and a (much needed) cabin upgrade, including a large 14.5-inch infotainment unit alongside a host of luxury interior finishes.

Stay tuned for further details when the new G80 debuts next week.
