2025 Genesis Electrified G80 price and specs

Genesis Australia has released full specifications for its updated Electrified G80 luxury sedan, bringing a larger battery and more range with tweaked safety and interior tech in a new, long-wheelbase body.
Offered in one 'highly equipped' Signature AWD trim level, the Electrified G80 is priced from $155,000 before on-roads, an increase of $10,000 from when the model first launched in 2023.
It now features a colossal 27-inch display that incorporates infotainment and instrument displays, a new Bang & Olufsen premium sound system, Hyundai Motor Group's 'Ergo Motion' air-controlled seats front and rear, and powered rear doors.
Other upgrades include Highway Driving Assist 2 with navigation-based smart cruise control and active road noise cancelling, the latter of which utilises four sensors and six interior microphones to monitor sound levels.

Its battery capacity has been upgraded from 87.2kWh to 94.5kWh, giving the Electrified G80 a maximum claimed driving range of 570km on the WLTP cycle. Outputs remain at 272kW of power and 700Nm of torque, with rear-wheel steering now featuring as standard.
Genesis labels this battery as a 'fourth-generation' unit, which still incorporates 800V architecture and boasts a claimed DC fast charging capacity of 350kW. This means the Electrified G80 claims to be capable of charging from 10 to 80 per cent in 25 minutes.
It's also fitted with Genesis' 'Preview Electronic Control Suspension', which can supposedly adjust the suspension dampers 'in readiness for bumps and potholes ahead', informed by the front camera and GPS data.
These specifications exclude the hotted-up G80 EV Magma Concept, which was revealed in Beijing in early 2024. Only the tamer Electrified G80 is available in Australia at the time of publication. Supplied Credit: CarExpert Supplied Credit: CarExpert
The new long-wheelbase Electrified G80 has increased the car's length by 130mm, while width and boot space measurements have been retained. Supplied Credit: CarExpert
Genesis backs the Electrified G80 with a five-year, unlimited-kilometre vehicle warranty and an eight-year, 160,000km high-voltage battery warranty. Servicing is required every 12 months or 15,000km, whichever comes first, though pricing has yet to be detailed. Supplied Credit: CarExpert
The brand also offers a five-year ChargeFox subscription with new Electrified G80 purchases, while the 'Genesis to You' program is offered for the duration of the car's five-year 'Complimentary Scheduled Servicing' period.
This unlocks Genesis' concierge service and courtesy vehicle service.
The updated Electrified G80 has yet to be crash-tested, though the outgoing model wears a five-star ANCAP safety rating based on testing conducted in 2020. Supplied Credit: CarExpert

Toyota says its hybrids have saved nine million EVs worth of CO2

Toyota chairman Akio Toyoda has reinforced his company's commitment to prioritising hybrid vehicles (HEVs) over battery-electric vehicles (EVs or BEVs), outlining that hybrids are its ideal way forward in terms of reducing total CO2 emissions. Speaking through an interpreter in a recent interview with Automotive News, Toyoda-san said Toyota is as committed to reducing the environmental impact of cars as any other brand, but has adopted a cost- and time-effective way to go about reducing its carbon emissions. "When the term 'carbon neutrality' started to become popular and we started to hear about it, we set our target as a company saying that for us, the enemy is carbon," he said. "The way that we thought about it was that we're not going to contribute to achieving carbon neutrality just by building BEVs, but we have to focus on things that we can do now so that, immediately, we can reduce CO2 from the air.

"We looked at ourselves [and asked] 'what can we do with the things that we have to contribute to carbon neutrality?' That was the base of how we made our decision in those times, and that has not changed now, and will not change for the future." Toyoda-san is referring to the widespread rollout of hybrid vehicles, which dominate the Japanese brand's current model range. Toyota is credited with creating the first mass-produced hybrid car in the late 1990s, and has continued to develop the technology to the market-leading status it holds today. The company's passenger car lineup is now dominated by hybrids, evidenced by the Japanese brand's Australian axing of all petrol versions of cars that offer hybrid options in 2024. Hybrids continue to play a significant role in Toyota's global efforts too, not least in its home country. Toyoda-san claims that over the past five years, the focus on hybrids played a larger role in reducing Japanese CO2 emissions than EVs. Above: Toyota Hybrid range "If you can check the data for each country about the CO2 emission situation for the past five years, it's going to be very clear," Toyoda-san said. "For Japan, we had this weapon of hybrid vehicles, so with the hybrid vehicles, we were able to reduce 23 per cent of CO2 emissions in the same [time], and it was the only country that was able to achieve that." Toyoda-san added that his company has produced and delivered upwards of 27 million hybrids to date, and claimed that figure was "equivalent to nine million BEVs in terms of the contribution to carbon neutrality". "The hybrids that we made and sold had the same impact as nine million BEVs on the road, but if we were to make nine million BEVs in [Japan] it would have actually increased the CO2 emissions, not reduced, because we are relying on thermal powerplants." Despite that, Toyoda-san reaffirmed that HEVs aren't the only way forward, pointing to Toyota's continued development of internal combustion petrol and diesel engines (ICEs), as well as EVs, plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) and hydrogen fuel-cell electric vehicles (FCEVs). Toyota recently revealed the next-generation RAV4 mid-size SUV (above), which will be the brand's first PHEV in Australia. The Mirai FCEV is currently being used by corporate fleets and government partners locally via very limited leases, too. The Japanese auto giant is also part of an alliance with Subaru and Mazda to develop lower-emission ICEs into the future. "I think we shouldn't just focus on [BEV] … but we should look at all the options that we have and work in all directions," Toyoda-san said. "That will be similar to thinking as a person of the planet, not just from one perspective, but thinking about the whole planet, and then we can think about the various options and take the movements to reduce CO2 as much as possible. "I believe if everyone can support this way of thinking, it will be for the benefit of all the stakeholders too."
