SPYSHOTS: The next generation of the Genesis G80 is here

[db2022]

This is stunning, I prefer it to the gv80, especially the interior, no pass through under the transmission, better steering wheel overall better proportions... Now just like the gv80 it needs a sport version, exactly like the current g80 sport

The outside looks fantastic, interior not so much. One reason I chose the G80 over competitors back in 2018 was the navigation screen didn't look like someones IPad stuck on top of the dash.

It looks superb exterior and interior.

Holy sh@t!!

The Germans have officially been been handed their gonads.

The day Genesis comes out with a sporty version will be the day Germans will shit their pants

Areas better than the GV80...

grille
dash
steering wheel

This video does a pretty decent job doing a side-by-side comparison...

On a side note, the new G80 has been getting a pretty positive response on various auto blogs.

Can I get that in English?

 

[rroyce46]

I want one!

 

[MG8]

SHEEESH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love it! It is gorgeous and in my opinion, executes the new design direction better than the GV80 and light years better than the G90. If the G70 looks this good, I will officially have pre update buyers remorse.

 

[leggy]

Agree. It's way better than the G90 but the G90 was a refresh but not as elegantly executed as the G80

Hardly - I don’t care for the headlights/tail lights and the side marker lights are god awful. The silhouette and stance are nice (though heavily borrowed from the Audi A7) as is the interior.

Making an account just to piss on this car before deleting it- great impression you've left there, German fanboy.

So far it looks utterly insane... it almost looks too good, I’m shocked. The side profile is so long, sharp and swoops elegantly with confidence. The rear looks concept-like, very thing and sharp taillights. The grille is the right shape and the size is more resolved, in person I think it will look even better. It just looks so modern, incredible proportions, clean lines.

The interior is a colossal improvement, I love how the dash flows into the doors, thin air vent, wide with clean ‘white space.’ Everything flows so nicely, it looks very elegant and cohesive. I think it will look even better in person and with all the different options. I cannot wait for the live presentation, promotional videos and to see in person.

Me too. But I really can't wait to have it in my driveway.

Well whoever is going to buy one I’m happy for you all. I hope that you enjoy it when you have it in your driveway!!

One gorgeous detail is—what I interpret—a speaker grille integrated flush with the beautiful sculptured ‘blueish’ section of the door panel:



That looks so stunning... also another attention to detail is the hood stopping above the grille; no line seperation:

I mentioned in the other thread- but the most stunning part of the grille? The lack of that awful piece of clear plastic radar rectangle that plagues every currently sold Genesis product. Not even Mercedes or any other brand could figure out how to do this without tacking it behind a huge version of their logo on the grille.

My favourite part of the whole car so far is the interior. Look at how beautifully crafted that door panel goes from flush to almost like you are going down a slide but elegantly. I love details and that’s once detail that spoke to me the fastest. Also on how the interior is nothing alike from the GV80.

But the really important question is are the cupholders now big enough to hold two travel mugs?

Wonder where the license plate goes? And where is the radar sensor?

Maybe the radar guard is just removed for the preview pic????
