POWERTRAIN
Electrified G80 is offered with a single battery-electric, all-wheel drive powertrain delivering totals of 272kW and 700Nm from front and rear 136kW, 350Nm motors.
The result is breathtakingly dynamic performance across the range of driving conditions with the ability to accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in just 4.9 seconds.
A Disconnector Actuator System (DAS) can separate or connect the motor and drive shaft according to driving conditions, including vehicle speed and driving mode. The system lets G80 seamlessly switch between RWD and AWD to maximise efficiency.
By adjusting the level of regenerative braking (and rate of deceleration) via the steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters, the driver can minimise the use of the brake pedal for a further efficiency improvement.
Electrified G80’s Smart Regenerative Braking 2.0 system also optimises coasting efficiency by automatically adjusting the amount of regenerative braking in three stages, based on the speed of the vehicle ahead, the following distance, and navigation map road sign data such as a change of speed limit.
An i-PEDAL regenerative braking mode enables a single-pedal driving strategy that allows acceleration, deceleration and stopping of the vehicle using only the accelerator.
Maximum range from the 87.2kWh power battery is 520km based on the WLTP testing protocol.
Electrified G80 features a 400V/800V multi rapid-charging system that lets customers plug into a range of charging infrastructures. The driving motor and inverter can boost the voltage from 400V to 800V – the optimal level for the system – for stable charging performance.
Plugged into a 350kW rapid charger, Electrified G80 can charge its battery from 10 to 80 percent in as little as 22 minutes.
TECHNOLOGY
Exterior Vehicle To Load (V2L)
Electrified G80’s exterior Vehicle To Load (V2L) Powerbank function gives users a household-grade source of electric power (3.6kW output) for when they’re enjoying the great outdoors.
Exterior V2L can be used to power/charge electric appliances/devices such as electric bicycles, scooters or camping equipment.
The system can also provide Vehicle To Vehicle (V2V) charging functionality via the portable emergency charging cable (ICCB), to charge another electric vehicle.
Electrically Assisted Dynamic Torque Vectoring Control (eDTVC)
Torque vectoring technology in Electrified G80 enhances handling and reduces understeer through partial braking and motor torque compensation during cornering.
The eDTVC system distributes torque to the outside wheel when cornering, while assisting yaw-moment through inner-wheel braking control.
By providing a compensating motor torque, the system prevents unintended deceleration that may otherwise result from the active brake control.
Road-Preview Electronic Control Suspension (Preview ECS)
Electrified G80’s Road Preview technology utilises the front windscreen-mounted camera to detect speed bumps and potholes, and then optimally controls the Electronic Control Suspension.
By pre-emptively adjusting the damping force at each wheel, the system helps minimise impact harshness to deliver optimal ride comfort.
Active Noise Control – Road (ANC-R)
Active Noise Control-Road (ANC-R) technology features in Electrified G80 to provide a refined driving experience.
The technology significantly reduces the noise level experienced by occupants, by measuring and analysing road noises – using an array of sensors and microphones – and then simultaneously creates sounds at opposite phase to cancel them.
Solar Roof
Electrified G80 features a solar roof that harnesses the power of the sun, and uses it to charge the power battery, to incrementally increase driving range.
SAFETY
Electrified G80 takes passenger safety to the next level with differentiated collision-energy path structural design, an array of advanced active safety & driver assistance technology, and a 10-airbag suite.
Among these is the pioneering Genesis centre side airbag, which prevents or lessens injuries caused by collisions between front occupants, or collisions of occupants with interior components, in the event of a side collision.
GENESIS ACTIVE SAFETY CONTROL
FCA (Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist) with Junction Turning/Crossing, Lane-Change Oncoming/Side & Evasive Steering Assist functions
Electrified G80’s Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system, when active, utilises the front radar sensor and windscreen-mounted camera to detect and monitor vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists ahead.
If a potential collision is detected, the system’s Forward Collision Warning function will sound an alert and display a warning in the instrument cluster or Head-Up Display.
Where driver intervention is not detected after a FCW system warning, the FCA system will automatically apply the vehicle’s brakes and/or engage Evasive Steering Assist to avoid or reduce the severity of a potential collision.
In addition, the FCA-Junction Turning/Junction Crossing function detects oncoming vehicles in an adjacent lane when preparing to make a right turn at a junction, as well as vehicles in a perpendicular lane when preparing to cross an intersection and, in the event a collision appears likely, applies the brakes to stop Electrified G80 or reduce impact speed.
The FCA-Lane Change Oncoming/Lane Change Side function assists through corrective steering input in the event a collision appears likely with oncoming vehicles in an adjacent lane or, in lane-change and lane-departure situations, vehicles approaching in the same direction in an adjacent lane.
Blind-Spot Collision Avoidance-Assist – Rear/Side (BCA-R/S)
Blind-Spot Collision Avoidance-Assist uses the windscreen-mounted camera to monitor Electrified G80’s positioning within the lane, as well as radar sensors on either side of the rear bumper to detect vehicles next to and diagonally behind.
If a vehicle is present in Electrified G80’s blind spot, BCA displays an alert in the exterior mirrors and the Head-Up Display. If the driver activates the corresponding turn signals, a flashing warning is provided and an alert is sounded.
The system also scans for vehicles approaching rapidly from the rear, and uses the same warning measures to alert the driver of vehicles approaching at a high speed, which may soon enter Electrified G80’s blind spot.
In each instance, if the driver does not initiate preventative action BCA can apply braking to prevent or reduce the severity of a potential collision.
A recent BCA improvement monitors for approaching vehicles when leaving a parallel parking space to alert the driver and/or apply preventative braking if needed.
Driver Attention Warning (DAW)
The Driver Attention Warning system uses the windscreen-mounted camera to continually monitor Electrified G80’s position within the lane, whilst also tracking steering inputs, brake pedal inputs, and elapsed driving time.
Should the system detect careless driving (such as sudden steering/braking inputs and/or the inability to keep within a lane), the ‘Attention Level’ display in the instrument cluster will be progressively engaged.
Should the level decrease below a pre-set threshold, the DAW system will recommend that the driver takes a break.
The system features Leading Vehicle Departure Alert, which monitors the vehicle ahead when Electrified G80 is stopped in traffic. If the vehicle drives off, and the Electrified G80 driver fails to accelerate away, the system will sound a chime to alert the potentially inattentive driver.
Forward Attention Warning (FAW)
Utilising an infrared camera, if it is determined that the driver is not looking ahead, the cluster will display a warning and sound an alert.
Blind-Spot View Monitor (BVM)
Electrified G80’s Blind-Spot View Monitor displays video of the blind-spot area to give the driver a clear view of the surroundings and allow for safe lane changes.
When operating the left or right turn signals, the system displays video of the blind-spot view for the corresponding side.
High Beam Assist (HBA)
The High Beam Assist system scans the road ahead using the windscreen-mounted camera, monitoring for street lights as well as any other lights, including the headlights of oncoming vehicles and taillights of vehicles ahead.
Upon detection the system automatically adjusts headlight range, switching between high and low beam.
Intelligent Front-lighting System (IFS)
The Intelligent Front-lighting System in allows the continuous use of Electrified G80’s high beam headlights without risk of dazzling the occupants of vehicles ahead.
By using headlights comprising multiple LEDs with individual electronic control, sections of the headlight can be selectively dimmed (or turned up) as required.
Smart Cruise Control with Machine Learning (SCC-ML)
Smart Cruise Control with Machine Learning applies logic that learns the driver’s driving tendencies and is then able to control the vehicle similarly to the driver’s driving tendency when SCC is active.
When SCC is inactive (Off/Standby) the function learns the driver’s driving style (inter-vehicle distance, acceleration, and reaction speed).
When SCC is activated, the function stops learning and drives automatically in a style that reflects the driver’s.
Lane Following Assist (LFA)
Lane Following Assist uses the front-mounted camera to monitor vehicles ahead and establish the centre line of the lane, to provide steering assistance and help keep Electrified G80 centred in the lane.
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA)
The Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Avoidance-Assist system monitors for traffic approaching on either side of the vehicle when reversing out of perpendicular parking spaces, using the rear-view camera and rear ultrasonic sensors.
Should RCCA detect a vehicle approaching, a warning will be displayed in the instrument cluster and an alert will sound. If the risk of collision increases even after the warning, braking can be initiated automatically.
Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist (PCA-R)
The reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist function warns the driver if it detects a potential collision risk behind Electrified G80.
After the warning, if the risk of collision increases, the system can automatically assist with emergency braking.
Smart Parking Assist (SPA)
When maneuvering into and out of tight parking spaces, the Smart Parking Assist system in Electrified G80 provides automated steering and acceleration to reduce driver effort.
Remote Smart Parking Assist (RSPA)
The Remote Smart Parking Assist system lets users park Electrified G80 remotely from outside the vehicle, enhancing convenience, and allowing occupants to exit the vehicle easily, before it is parked in a tight space.
Manual Speed Limit Assist (MSLA)
Electrified G80’s Manual Speed Limit Assist (MSLA) function assists the driver in pre-setting a speed limit for the vehicle, which is helpful in situations with reduced speed limits, such as school zones and roadworks.
Intelligent Speed Limit Assist (ISLA)
Intelligent Speed Limit Assist helps the driver to stay within the speed limit of the current road during driving.
The system monitors road signs using the front camera as well as navigation data and will provide a warning if the vehicle exceeds the speed limit.
During MSLA or SCC operation the driver can change the set cruise control speed to be within the speed limit using the plus and minus switch on the steering wheel.
Rear Occupant Alert (ROA)
The Rear Occupant Alert system prevents children or pets from inadvertently being left in Electrified G80 by alerting the driver to check for them before exiting the vehicle.
If the system has registered that a rear door was opened, it will alert the driver when they turn off Electrified G80 with a pop-up message on the cluster to check the rear seats.
If the system detects the presence of an occupant in the rear seats after the driver has left the vehicle, it will activate the horn and hazard lights.
Safe Exit Assist (SEA)
Safe Exit Assist helps prevent occupants from exiting Electrified G80 when the surroundings make it unsafe to do so, such as when a vehicle is approaching from the rear.
SEA works in conjunction with the electronic child lock interlock to keep the doors locked, while warning that approaching vehicles may make it unsafe to exit the vehicle.
Surround View Monitor (SVM)
The Surround View Monitor displays a high quality, accurate view of Electrified G80’s surroundings while driving and parking, and offers 3D viewing capabilities for maximum convenience and intuitiveness.
Multi-Collision Brake (MCB)
The Multi-Collision Brake system operates to prevent or lessen the severity of a secondary collision.
The system is activated after the airbags have deployed and, where brake or accelerator pedal input is not detected, applies the brakes to bring Electrified G80 safely to a stop.
Emergency Stop Signal (ESS)
Emergency Stop Signal (ESS) helps warn surrounding traffic when the driver deploys emergency braking above a predetermined speed threshold.
The system flashes the brake lights during emergency braking to warn the drivers of vehicles behind, and automatically activates the hazard lights at lower speeds as a further visual warning to surrounding drivers.
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) alerts the driver if a tyre pressure is out of the normal range, as well as providing individual tyre pressure readouts.
EXTERIOR
Electrified G80 applies the Genesis Athletic Elegance design philosophy along with an array of EV-specific styling elements to create a striking large luxury sedan.
The Genesis-signature Crest Grille evolves into an aerodynamic crest featuring an inverted G-Matrix pattern designed to emphasise Electrified G80’s sustainability mission.
Electrified G80’s charging flap is hidden in the top right corner of the grille and, when opened, reveals a twin chrome line design that maintains a consistent design identity.
A solar roof integrated in the roofline enhances Electrified G80’s energy efficiency by generating supplementary electricity from sunlight.
A choice of 11 exterior colours are available, 10 of which are shared with G80 2.5T and 3.5T plus an exclusive hue, Matira Blue, let every customer tailor Electrified G80 to their taste.
Capturing the spirit of Matira Beach in the South Pacific Ocean, Matira Blue utilises a special pigment that creates a colour that varies with the viewing angle, just like its namesake, from cobalt to emerald-blue and turquoise.
There are nine gloss colours for Electrified G80 along with the optional Verbier White and Makalu Gray Matte.
