2023 Genesis G80 Review | Electrified G80 Explained
Automotive journalists have much to say about the all new 2023 Genesis G80. They praise it for a better driving experience, better ride quality, and a faster ride. In fact, the new 2023 Genesis Electrified G80 can do the 0-60 mph sprint in a mere 4.1 seconds.
This luxury midsize sedan already has the size, style, and passion to serve its role. Now it can do it even better with its all electric, long range powertrain. The new design may not clue you in that the 2023 Genesis eG80 is now “a compelling electric luxury sedan”, writes MotorTrend.
Is this sedan really a top luxury ride? How does the electric Genesis fit into the picture? Keep scrolling to get answers in this review.
Electric Performance
What’s more fun than performance in a luxury sedan? The 2023 Genesis eG80 is sure to make you want to hit the road. The new powertrain combines two electric motors that create a remarkable 365 horsepower. If you compare that to the twin-turbo V6, you’ll notice the electric sedan has a bit more horsepower but less torque.
The torque rate is an astounding 516 pound-feet. Car and Driver has noted that this electric car is capable of faster acceleration at lower speeds such as the gap from 30 to 50 and the gap from 50 to 70 mph.
Driving range is about 282 miles, and it doesn’t take long to bring it back up to charge. In 22 minutes, a fast charger can boost it from 10 percent to 80 percent. The overnight charger can restore 100 percent in 7 hours, less than many other electric vehicles.
The brand recently earned an IF Design Award for its Wireless EV charging system. To take advantage of the all new Electrified G80, you definitely need to be in touch with your Earnhardt Genesis G80 dealer. Schedule a test drive at your convenience.
Standard Performance
Still, the twin turbocharged engine is a wonder. This V6 turbo produces 375 horsepower to keep the G80 3.5T competitive in every maneuver. The torque rate is 391 pound-feet. Drivers will appreciate it is just a 5-second jump from 0 to 60 mph.
The Genesis G80 2.5T provides money-saving fuel economy. Yet it has a speedy 300 horsepower output. This turbo four is a remarkable value for the money. You certainly don’t have to wait for a Genesis G80 sale to enjoy its performance and style.
Available Drivetrains
The G80 2.5T comes in rear-wheel and all-wheel drive models. It is mated with an 8-speed automatic transmission. Equipped with all-wheel drive, G80 3.5T models offer rear wheel steering. This system is standard with the electric drivetrain of the 2023 Genesis Electrified G80.
With the electric drivetrain, the unique all-wheel drivetrain may favor front wheel or rear wheel drive, but it is capable of moving all four wheels as needed. Driving the front wheels, the first motor produces 182.5 horsepower and 258 pounds of torque. Driving the rear wheels, the second motor basically doubles that power and provides momentum.
Good Looks
A sweeping fascia has a look that blends differing shapes of differing sizes. G-Matrix patterning adds to the crosshatch design. The slender headlights form two lines on either side of the large upper grille. The overall effect is muscular and dynamic, mixing a bit of classic race car design with modern sculpting.
Adding the Genesis G80 Sport package, the look becomes even more aggressive. Distinctive front and rear fascia and large 20-inch five-spoke wheels are among its striking features.
For the electric luxury sedan, engineers added more stiffening materials. Other materials were refashioned in lightweight designs of carbon fiber or aluminum. The solid crest grille wears diagonal lines and hides the charge port door. In the back, there are no tailpipes on the Electrified G80.
Stylish Interior
While many brands are promising carbon fiber, Genesis has genuine carbon fiber interior trim in the G80 model. Matte finish wood adds to the flow of lines on the dash. The center console combines function with fashion.
Dual-zone or tri-zone climate controls offer to cool the cabin naturally. Standard heated seats can be upgraded to ventilated seats for our summer weather.
It’s surprising just how luxurious these cabins are, given the sustainable materials from which they are made. For instance, Nylon scraps are made into an under-carpet lining. Recycled plastics take on a new life in the soft microsuede headliner. Discarded birch pieces are used to create a marbled veneer. Even the Nappa leather seats are dyed with special natural materials.
Sport models wear a black or brown interior. The new Electrified G80 offers a special dark green cabin with a two-tone Glacier White upholstery.
The Prestige trim really suits the G80 3.5T and is now offered on the Electrified G80 powertrain. In this trim, a luxurious quilted Nappa leather adds a soft touch that stretches across the dash.
This gives luxury buyers the best of the best when they choose this Genesis electric sedan. Competitive financing from our dealership is available.
Dash Tech
2023 Genesis Electrified G80s have a wider, larger touchscreen. This 14.5-inch unit makes it easy to see what you need and find what you want. A circular controller at the driver’s right hand is easy to use. Duplicate buttons on the steering wheel add yet another simple way to interface.
Music sounds amazing on the Lexicon 21-speaker system. Of course, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are on board for the maximum connectivity for your smartphone. A wireless device charger keeps your phone ready.
Safety
G80 and eG80 sedans put a premium on safety as much as style. In its standard or electric form, it has ten airbags to surround the driver and passengers if the worst happens.However, preventing the worst is the role of Genesis driver assistance, standard on the G80 and eG80.
The front camera system delivers a warning and may trigger an emergency autobrake. This collision avoidance system also watches for cyclists and pedestrians.
The blind spot monitor tries to keep the driver from changing lanes at the wrong time. A lane keeping assist helps maintain the safest trajectory. The avoidance assist strengthens the ability of a rear cross traffic alert to stop collisions.
All New Genesis G80 vs Mercedes Benz E Class
Shoppers may compare the G80 with rival luxury midsize sedans. The Mercedes Benz E Class is one such competitor, but it costs about $7,000 more at the base level.
In terms of value, Genesis has a comprehensive standard equipment list. It is a bigger package of amenities than the E-Class sedan offers. Furthermore, the G80 offers better second row legroom.
As for power, the Genesis 3.5T outshines the Mercedes Benz E-Class. The 375-horsepower engine is more than a match for the 362-horsepower turbo Mercedes. While the E-Class comes in gas-hogging AMG models, the Genesis eG80 has the electric powertrain with its remarkable performance and zero emissions. These electric vehicles are eligible for the federal tax credit.
When it comes to quality, the G80 earned top marks in the JD Power U.S. APEAL Study. The Genesis midsize sedan earned the top spot in the Upper Midsize Premium Car segment. As for reliability, the manufacturer continues to offer the only 10-year powertrain warranty in the luxury segment.
