The new 323-mile Genesis Electrified G80 is coming to the UK next month

Want your slice of luxury automotive cake with left-field sprinkles? Genesis’ new and updated Electrified G80 - revamped for the Korean market last winter - is set to make its way to the UK in June. Silently, of course.

Because the G80 is - as the name literally points out - electrified, producing 365bhp and 516lb ft from its dual-motor, AWD powertrain. Expect 0-62mph in 4.9s. And, via its rather large 94.5kWh battery, up to 323 miles of clean green driving. Rear-wheel steering is available as an option if you’re happy to part with a few more shillings.

The plush new Electrified G80 is 130mm bigger than the last one to make things even more spacious for passengers. And luxurious. There's a generous amount of leather in there, a redesigned three-spoke steering wheel, behind which sits a massive 27in panoramic screen that encompasses both the driving information and entertainment.

Other highlights include a 17-speaker Bang & Olufsen stereo and a built-in antibacterial steriliser system within the front armrest, because of course there is.

Since this UK-bound facelift is going to match up with Korea’s version, it'll get sharper bumpers at either end, plus something called 'Micro-Lens Array' technology to improve visibility from the twin-pronged headlights. A very cool shape, you'll agree. Ditto those 19in shoes - very demure, one might say.

Reckon on a starting price of around £77k.
