Genesis '2022 GV80'

[Asia Economy Reporter Changhwan Lee] Genesis announced that it will launch the ‘2022 GV80,’ a model with a model year update, on the 30th and begin full-scale sales.

The 2022 GV80 has enhanced its product competitiveness by adding a 6-seat model to the existing 5-seat and 7-seat models, along with premium convenience and safety features and interior and exterior colors that have high customer satisfaction.

The 6-seat model applies the same center console as the first row to the second-row seats, including a wireless charging system, cup holders, and storage compartments. Convenience is also improved through wing-out headrests and one-touch relax mode, which are installed when selecting the second-row comfort package.

An ergo motion seat, which uses airbags to create comfort and optimal seating posture during driving, is also installed on the front passenger seat. A rear-seat dual monitor is equipped so that passengers in the back can enjoy various content.

The after-blow system, which operates the fan 30 minutes after turning off the engine to dry the air conditioning system interior and remove moisture, reducing indoor air conditioner odors and bacteria generation, is also installed to provide a comfortable interior space.

The 2022 GV80 has expanded the application of front monoblock brake calipers (4P) to the gasoline 2.5 turbo and 3.0 diesel models to improve braking stability, and added a new brown-tone ‘Copper’ color to the calipers of the gasoline 3.5 turbo model to enhance luxury.

Additionally, it is equipped with a Multi-Collision Brake (MCB) system that automatically brakes the vehicle to prevent secondary collisions if the driver temporarily loses control of the vehicle after the first collision during driving, thereby enhancing safety.

Genesis also equipped the 2022 GV80 with a system that can wirelessly update (OTA) the 12.3-inch cluster and head-up display. In addition to the existing wireless navigation updates, it automatically updates new cluster themes and head-up display functions wirelessly, improving not only navigation accuracy but also driving convenience.

The 2022 GV80 has expanded customer choices by applying new colors to the exterior and interior. The exterior includes Mauna Red and Barossa Burgundy (glossy and matte), and the interior adds Urban Brown and Vanilla Beige two-tone colors to the standard design model.

The prices are 61.36 million KRW for the gasoline 2.5 turbo, 66.95 million KRW for the gasoline 3.5 turbo, and 65.28 million KRW for the diesel 3.0. Customers can configure specifications as they wish through the personalized sales system Your Genesis. (Based on 3.5% individual consumption tax)

A Genesis official said, “The GV80 has led the domestic luxury large SUV market since its launch based on a design differentiated from existing SUVs and cutting-edge technology,” and added, “Through the 2022 GV80, which adds the 6-seat model and various convenience and safety features, we will provide customers with a new experience.”
