The Genesis G80 is a superlative executive sedan. It offers first-class accommodations with a meticulously refined cabin, premium materials, appealing amenities, and cutting-edge technology. It's also enjoyable to drive, thanks to its smooth, confident handling dynamics and potent performance options.
While luxury, style, and driving satisfaction are hallmarks of the Genesis G80 experience, safety has always been the automaker's top priority. It has the accolades to prove it, too. This past October, the Genesis G80 and Electrified G80 earned Top Safety Pick+ recognition, the highest possible award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). They join the Genesis GV60, GV80, GV70, and Electrified GV70 as the most recent recipients of top safety honors.
"At Genesis, our entire product portfolio is engineered with the highest standards of safety for customers," said Claudia Marquez, chief operating officer of Genesis Motor North America. "We are pleased that the G80 and Electrified G80 executive sedans have been recognized for exceptional safety performance by IIHS."
What Makes a Top Safety Pick+ Vehicle?
Earning Top Safety Pick recognition isn't easy. It requires the highest score of "Good" for all crashworthiness assessments and available "Good" or "Acceptable" headlights. It also requires "Advanced" or "Superior" ratings for forward collision mitigation technology in both daytime and nighttime vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-pedestrian evaluations. The additional "plus" (+) rating is reserved for vehicles with "Good" or "Acceptable" headlights as standard equipment.
In addition to ten standard airbags, the Genesis G80 comes standard with a full roster of cutting-edge driver aids, including "Superior"-rated front crash prevention systems. So, no matter what trim you choose for your Alcoa or Clinton commute, you'll get technologies like:
- Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection
- Lane Keeping Assist with Road Edge Detection
- Lane Following Assist
- Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go
- Highway Driving Assist II
- Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
- Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist
- Safe Exit Assist
- Driver Attention Warning
- Parking Distance Warning
