genesis announces pricing for electrified 2023 g80

Genesis made a name for itself with value-forward vehicles that bring enough tech, luxury, and performance to beat rivals from Europe and North America. Once part of Hyundai, the automaker has begun electrifying its lineup, so we’re starting to see that brand-building power with a wave of new cars and SUVs. Genesis just announced pricing for its latest EV, the 2023 Electrified G80, which will start at $80,290 after a $1,095 freight and destination charge.

The Electrified G80 comes in a single trim with all the goodies included. Dual 136-kW electric motors provide power to the front, and rear wheels for electrified all-wheel drive, and the system gets power from an 87.20 kWh battery. Genesis throws in three years of complimentary 30-minute charging at Electrify America stations across the country. Charging from 10-80 percent in the car takes just 22 minutes, thanks to its 800V charging architecture, and Genesis says its customers can take advantage of Electrify America’s ultra-fast charging.

Standard features include a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster with 3D effect, a 14.5-inch HD touchscreen, active noise control, wireless smartphone charging, tri-zone climate control, heated and ventilated front seats, a Lexicon sound system, and more.

Safety is a priority for the G80, as its gas-powered counterpart achieved a Top Safety Pick + in 2022. Genesis includes a full suite of advanced driver aids, including drier attention warnings, blind spot monitoring, highway driving assistance, and adaptive cruise control. The car also comes standard with Genesis’ Smart Parking Assist (smaht pahk), which lets the driver remotely move the G80 in and out of parking spots.

Genesis says its entire lineup is going electric, which at just five vehicles seems more straightforward than brands like Mercedes-Benz or Volkswagen making a move. Still, the brand has ground to cover before it can claim success on that front. To help its cause, the automaker expanded its electric vehicle retail presence to four more states, including Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and Washington.

Owned a 2017 loaded G80. Absolutely one of best autos ever. Paid $46,000 ,MSRP $52,000. Would love to buy G80-EV. BUT FOR $80,000 NO WAY.

Groza George I don’t care about GM’s anything. They have not had anything of interest or of reasonable quality in a generation and now solely stay on business to provide UAW retirement while they slowly move production to Mexico.
Arthur Dailey We have a lease coming due in October and no intention of buying the vehicle when the lease is up.Trying to decide on a replacement vehicle our preferences are the Maverick, Subaru Forester and Mazda CX-5 or CX-30.Unfortunately both the Maverick and Subaru are thin on the ground. Would prefer a Maverick with the hybrid, but the wife has 2 'must haves' those being heated seats and blind spot monitoring. That requires a factory order on the Maverick bringing Canadian price in the mid $40k range, and a delivery time of TBD. For the Subaru it looks like we would have to go up 2 trim levels to get those and that also puts it into the mid $40k range.Therefore are contemplating take another 2 or 3 year lease. Hoping that vehicle supply and prices stabilize and purchasing a hybrid or electric when that lease expires. By then we will both be retired, so that vehicle could be a 'forever car'. And an increased 'carbon tax' just kicked in this week in most of Canada. Prices are currently $1.72 per litre. Which according to my rough calculations is approximately $5.00 per gallon in US currency.Any recommendations would be welcomed.
Eric Wait! They're moving? Mexico??!!
GrumpyOldMan All modern road vehicles have tachometers in RPM X 1000. I've often wondered if that is a nanny-state regulation to prevent drivers from confusing it with the speedometer. If so, the Ford retro gauges would appear to be illegal.
Theflyersfan Matthew...read my mind. Those old Probe digital gauges were the best 80s digital gauges out there! (Maybe the first C4 Corvettes would match it...and then the strange Subaru XT ones - OK, the 80s had some interesting digital clusters!) I understand the "why simulate real gauges instead of installing real ones?" argument and it makes sense. On the other hand, with the total onslaught of driver's aid and information now, these screens make sense as all of that info isn't crammed into a small digital cluster between the speedo and tach. If only automakers found a way to get over the fallen over Monolith stuck on the dash design motif. Ultra low effort there guys. And I would have loved to have seen a retro-Mustang, especially Fox body, have an engine that could rev out to 8,000 rpms! You'd likely be picking out metal fragments from pretty much everywhere all weekend long.
