I can't get over those 5 spoke wheels. They look so good.

By the way, any word on the GV80 availability?

Posted by Abdullah0637, I noticed... the Genesis closest has fake exhaust. If you zoom in you can see a mesh, whereas the black one has real.

I asked yesterday and found this today

Looks amazing

Looks fantastic. Really love how the fins break up the front bumper in the GV80. In the spyshots of the G80, there just a big continuous mesh that exaggerates the grill - really hoping for some fins to split it up.

It is fun to see the spy shots and speculate on what’s changing. Yet I for one will be pleased if the next gen takes its sweet time. My 2019 G80 Sport 3.3TT is just about perfect. Not keen to have it lose any of its luster just yet.

And I agree with the hotel parking valet who delivered it to me at a meeting yesterday: everything about this car is great! (When I told him it was half the price of a loaded Tesla, he looked shocked—so to speak.)

Nothing confirmed yet but check these previous posts by Oscarnero and Aura:

I meant worldwide as in release it where ever they sell it worldwide. But they should REVEAL them at the same time.

SPYSHOTS: The next generation of the Genesis G80 is here

I personally don't care much about this 'new' 3D instrument cluster talk. My attention is solely on any HUD advancements. But, IMO, the current HUD meets my needs nicely. Anything else is icing on the cake.

Also there are some new spyshots for gv80 here:

Spy shots of the long-awaited GV80.

If the modeling is accurate, the grille design/shape is better than what is on the concept.

Blind spot monitoring indication in the mirror definitely looks red in that pic.

Again, thanks for the amazing pics.

They might have changed it to make it have a similar color to what Mercedes has on their Blind Spot indicators.

And hopefully it works at 1 mph, unlike the current generation that starts working at 20 mph

Almost all manufactures have a set speed for the Blind Spot to activate. The majority of the industry has it at 20 MPH because it needs a set MPH in order to activate.

There should be deaf spot activation because I can't really see when driving.... I rely on my hearing.....

What was the purpose of mounting the mirrors on the door panels instead of the window frame like before? I guess for aero dynamic reasons but I don’t like the little fixed triangle glass in its place.

By mounting it on the side it would cause for possible aerodynamics and I’m guessing Genesis was like we have a bank here why don’t we just add a small glass for better visibility.

Reduction in road noise and to increase aerodynamics/reduce drag coefficient.

Definitely visibility as Glaz said. Visibility where the A pillar is and better side. Also aerodynamics and wind noise reduction.
