Internally codenamed JX1,[5] the vehicle was leaked in 3D in October 2019[6] and officially unveiled in January 2020 as the first SUV for the Genesis brand.[7] It is a collaborative effort between Genesis design teams in Korea, Europe, and the United States.[8] Built on a new rear-wheel-drive architecture, the doors, hood, and tailgate are made aluminum.[8]

The GV80 is available with three powertrains, a turbocharged 2.5-liter unit with 304 PS (224 kW; 300 hp), a turbocharged 3.5-liter unit with 380 PS (279 kW; 375 hp), and a turbocharged 3.0-liter diesel with 278 PS (204 kW; 274 hp) horsepower, which will only be available in select markets.[9]

It features a navigation-based smart cruise control (ASCC), remote smart parking assist, an NFC digital key, an around view monitor (AVM), 22-inch wheels, Nappa leather seating, a 14.5-inch touchscreen infotainment display with the 21-speakers Lexicon audio system, electric side curtains, and driver-controlled second and third row seating.[10]

The safety system includes ten airbags, forward collision-avoidance assist, reverse parking collision-avoidance assist, driver attention warning, blind-spot collision-avoidance assist, automatic high beam assist, and lane keep assist (LKAS).[11]

GV80 Concept

The GV80 was previewed by a concept of the same name, equipped with an electric powertrain and hydrogen fuel cell, which debuted at the New York International Auto Show in 2017.[13] The GV80 Concept was styled by Luc Donckerwolke as his first project for the marque after he had moved from Bentley.[14] Hyundai suspended development of hydrogen cars in 2021.[15]

South Korea

On August 30, 2021, the GV80 was officially released with a change in the model year.[16][17] The 2022 GV80 added a six-seater model with independent seats in the second row from the existing 5/7 seat model. In addition, it expanded the front-wheel monoblock brake caliper to the gasoline 2.5 turbo model and 3.0 diesel model. It also added a copper colour to the caliper of the gasoline 3.5 turbo model.

Mauna Red and Barossa Burgundy (glossy/matte) were added to the exterior, while Urban Brown and Vanilla Beige two-tone colours were added to the standard design model.[18]
