Mr.Talha Posted May 4, 2021 Posted May 4, 2021 Genesis will arrive in the UK this summer, with the electric version of its new G80 saloon leading an ambitious launch plan that will include a dedicated European model and two further EVs within a year. Hyundai launched its premium brand in Korea and the US in 2015, and its European expansion will now begin with sales in the UK, Germany and Switzerland. The G80 large saloon and GV80 large SUV will arrive here in June, with the Electrified G80 (which is being offered elsewhere with a dual-motor 365bhp powertrain) the first model due to reach customers. Genesis hasn’t detailed which powertrains will be offered in the UK yet, but it has said that the models have been tuned specifically for European roads. The decision to launch Genesis’s largest cars first is likely an effort establish the brand’s premium credentials and reflects the fact they’re the newest in its fleet, having been revealed last year. The G80 and GV80 will be followed “soon after” by the smaller G70 junior saloon and GV70 mid-sized SUV, and Genesis has promised that “a dedicated European product” will arrive within a year.
