Cutting-edge technology actively controls rear wheels depending on driving conditions to enhance driving stability.

The rear wheels rotate 3.5° in the opposite direction to the front wheels during low-speed cornering while ensuring easier, swift steering.** Based on vehicle speed in DRIVE/COMFORT Mode.${'genesis.common.p2.close.tooltip' @ i18n}

During cornering at mid or high-range RPMs, the rotation of the rear wheels is controlled to rotate no more than 2° in the same direction as the front. Experience the dynamics of the G80 Sport Plus with less slip and added safety.** Based on vehicle speed in DRIVE/COMFORT Mode.${'genesis.common.p2.close.tooltip' @ i18n}

SPORT+ MODESPORT+ MODE

Downshift with ease with new Sport+ mode, offering maximized acceleration and responsive shifting. Agile downshifting activates when sudden braking is detected, while upshifting can be prevented during cornering, controlling engine torque. Active sound design doubles your driving pleasure, unleashing thrilling rumbles and roars.**Available on 3.5T Sport Plus models only.${'genesis.common.p2.close.tooltip' @ i18n}

Platform

NEW BODY PLATFORMNEW BODY PLATFORM

Genesis' renowned body rigidity meets a new suspension to deliver exceptionally balanced performance unique to luxury sedans. This new platform maximizes both the interior space and the safety of passengers by increasing the average tensile strength of the car body and the hot-stamped steel plate around the passenger compartment.
