SPYSHOTS: The next generation of the Genesis G80 is here

[Abdullah0637]

These two are my favorite ones

This may be my favourite, but I have to see more of it and in person...

I like the ones you posted too Abdullah0637, especially in black:



I’m curious if any of the rims will be 21” or if 20” will be the largest.

I'm not sure I like the G90-like wheels on the G80... They look ok, maybe even stately on G90, but out of place on a more nimble G80. If anything they look a bit ghetto to me.

Yeah this rim too almost forgot about it, looks amazing I really love its design, I have searched for more images everywhere since I saw it few weeks ago but I can't find anything... I wonder why are they keeping it a secret

This is a lightweight wheel for Genesis that was shown at hyundai R & D motor show held in Korea today. I am very curious what car this wheel will be applied to.

Don’t know why but I have a feeling these are going to be on the GV70.

^ holy smokes...lots of rim choices. Man...they have to be sooo close to unveiling both of these damn things !

 

[I'm genesis fanboy]

More.

If that car hauler passed me on the road, as a G80 fanboy, I'd soil myself. God damn that's awesome!

The barrel of the wheel looks like carbon fiber!?

And based on the first picture, the barrel is a separate component than the spoke section.

Nah...it's a reflection of whatever is above it (I think). Ceiling, etc.

I say that since some parts are very smooth...and others you see a carbon fiber pattern. You only see it on parts of the top.

Yep. This is called CFRP.

Woah...wait...is it really CF ?!?!? That’s crazy money. Perhaps for Essentia?

Click on the first attachment picture in post 945 and you can (clearly?) see the inside part of the rim is CF. The second pic shows the 2-piece rim assembly as an equation.... "the barrel + the spoke section = the wheel".

Talk about not wanting to curb your rim.....

More pics. 19 inches, 9.3kg . I think it's applicable to the G70 N because it's 19 inches and looks similar to the N’s wheel.

^ wow. How much could one rim like that cost? If you curb it...or pot hole it...straight to the garbage bin...right?
