Overall Brand Impression:
In August of 2023, Hyundai’s spun-off luxury brand Genesis produced their one-millionth vehicle. The eight-year-old premium marque had rapidly established a niche in the prestigious motoring sector with sedans, crossovers and electric vehicles. For 2024, Genesis continues to foster a reputation for constructing prestigious, well-equipped automobiles.
What’s New for 2024:
The entry-level premium sedan in Genesis’ 2024 product lineup, the G70 receives a number of updates. Touting a presence of a new Genesis emblem, enhanced interior and standard Brembo brakes, the 2024 G70 sedan boasts new base power from a 300-horsepower 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine.
For the second half of 2024, Genesis dealerships will receive a new GV80. In addition to the extensively refined but familiar Genesis GV80 SUV, the 2025 model year will also include the debut of a coupe body style featuring a sloped rear window similar in basic execution as crossover vehicles produced by Mercedes-Benz and BMW. The 2025 Genesis GV80 Coupe will boast standard power from a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter engine combined with a 48-volt electric supercharger. This power unit will generate 409 horsepower and 405 lb.-ft. of torque. The Genesis GV80 SUV and the GV80 Coupe incorporate Two-Line headlamps using Micro Lens Array technology.
Genesis has also announced harmonizing their electrified models with the North American Charging Standard ports for Canadian vehicles starting in 2025. This new charging port will provide vehicle owners access to the vast Tesla Supercharger network.
All 2024 Genesis sedans and crossover vehicles will include Wi-Fi Hotspot connectivity.
