Genesis

What Genesis makes

Genesis is a car brand presented on the official Genesis Worldwide website, which carries a copyright line naming Hyundai Motor Company, the group it belongs to. The company is based in South Korea, and the worldwide site offers a country and language selector for its regional pages.

Where it sells

The worldwide pages quote range figures under Korean certification rules from 2024, which shows the home market as the reference point for the global specification sheets. Regional sites exist as well. The United Kingdom pages, for example, give prices on the road, including VAT, number plates, delivery and the first registration fee, together with a five year Care Plan that is part of that price.

Its electric line-up

The site marks four models as electric. The GV60 is a compact electric SUV with an 84 kWh battery. The Electrified GV70 uses the same battery size in a larger body and a dual motor drivetrain. The Electrified G80 is the saloon, with a 94.5 kWh battery and dual motors. The GV60 Magma is a high output version of the GV60 with 478 kW of peak power and its own suspension tuning.

Across these models the brand lists driver assistance systems such as Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist 2, Highway Driving Assist 2 and Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist. Charging is built around 800 volt hardware, with 10 to 80 percent charges quoted at 18 to 25 minutes on a 350 kW charger.
