All Genesis Models Receive Top Safety Rating in US IIHS Crash Tests

Both GV70 and The New G70, Hyundai's First Entry into the US, Earn TSP+ Ratings

[Asia Economy Reporter Yoo Je-hoon] Genesis announced on the 1st that all of its models received the highest safety rating, 'Top Safety Pick Plus (TSP+),' in the safety evaluation conducted by the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).

The evaluation included the GV70 and The New G70, which made their first entry into the U.S. market, both receiving the highest rating. With this, the entire Genesis brand lineup achieved the status of 'safest cars.'

The IIHS safety evaluation in the U.S. applies some of the strictest standards worldwide. Both the GV70 and The New G70 received the highest 'good' rating in all six crash tests. In the vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-pedestrian front crash prevention tests, they were rated 'superior' and 'advanced,' respectively, and both models earned a 'good' rating in the headlamp test.

Meanwhile, since Genesis entered the U.S. market in 2016 with the G80, every new model released annually in the U.S. has achieved the TSP+ rating. Notably, since 2019, all Genesis sedan lineup models sold in the U.S. have received the TSP+ rating, marking three consecutive years of the entire lineup being recognized as safe vehicles. The brand's first sports utility vehicle (SUV) model, the GV80, also received the TSP+ rating in its first evaluation after debuting in the U.S. market.

A Genesis representative stated, "Achieving the highest rating for all models demonstrates the brand's unwavering commitment to safety," adding, "We will continue to prioritize customer safety above all else and will not compromise on anything."
