Genesis Electrified G80: the electric luxury sedan and what buyers need to know
Genesis Electrified G80 — the electric version of the G80 sedan, first shown in 2021. We look at its powertrain, battery, charging and what buyers need to know in the used electric car market.
Electrified G80 in brief
The Electrified G80 is the electric version of the Genesis G80 sedan. It retains the same calm, luxurious style as the petrol G80, but with electric power and silent running.
This car is for those who want a quiet, comfortable and well-equipped luxury sedan without an internal combustion engine. It's still relatively new in the used market, so supply is limited.
How it differs from the standard G80
Externally, it's almost identical to the G80, but it has a unique front grille design and details typical of an electric car. The interior is luxurious, with a large screen and high-quality materials.
Technically, it's a completely different car: no engine noise or gearbox, and the ride is particularly smooth. Plus, it has a „vehicle-to-load“ (V2L) function, allowing it to power external devices.
Powertrain, battery and charging
The Electrified G80 has two electric motors — one on each axle — with a combined output of around 272 kW (around 370 hp), and an 87 kWh battery. All-wheel drive is standard.
According to the manufacturer, using a powerful (around 350 kW) fast charger, the battery can be charged from 10 to 80 percent in around 22 minutes. Real-world range depends on the season, speed and driving style.
What to check when buying a used Electrified G80
The key is the battery condition and warranty. Request a battery state of health (SOH) check and confirm the remaining manufacturer's warranty. Also, find out if the car was frequently charged with fast chargers.
Check the operation of all systems: multimedia, driver assistance systems, charging port, and included charging cables. Inspect the brakes, wheels, and suspension, as the car is heavy.
