2026 Genesis Electrified G80 Price in Australia

The Genesis Electrified G80 is the battery-electric interpretation of the brand’s large luxury sedan and is aimed at Australian buyers who want EV technology without giving up the comfort, space and formal presence of a traditional executive car. The latest model has an extended wheelbase and measures 5135 mm long, 1925 mm wide and 1480 mm high, giving it substantial road presence and additional emphasis on rear-seat accommodation. Genesis positions the car around quiet progress, high-end materials and passenger comfort rather than the crossover format that dominates much of the premium EV market.

Its electric powertrain uses a 94.5 kWh fourth-generation high-voltage battery and dual permanent-magnet synchronous motors, one at each axle. Each motor can deliver 136 kW and 350 Nm, producing a combined 272 kW and 700 Nm through all-wheel drive. Genesis Australia lists energy consumption of 181 Wh/km and a WLTP driving range of up to 570 km. Those figures make the Electrified G80 a credible long-distance luxury EV, although actual range will vary with traffic, speed, weather, climate-control use, wheel and tyre conditions and battery state.

Charging is another major strength. The Electrified G80 supports a 400V/800V multi-charging system, and Genesis states that its 800V ultra-fast charging capability can take the battery from 10 to 80 per cent in around 25 minutes under suitable conditions. Battery conditioning helps prepare the pack for fast charging, while an external vehicle-to-load adapter can power compatible electrical devices. For Australian owners, Genesis also promotes public-charging support as part of its electric-vehicle ownership offering, subject to the applicable program terms at the time of purchase.

The cabin is designed around luxury travel for both front and rear occupants. The extended-wheelbase layout provides generous rear accommodation, and Genesis highlights features such as optimised rear seats and leg rests. A 17-speaker Bang & Olufsen audio system is listed in the current Australian specification. Chauffeur Mode can tailor acceleration, braking and suspension behaviour for rear-seat comfort, while preview electronically controlled suspension works to improve ride quality. Rear-wheel steering turns the rear wheels in different directions depending on speed, helping manoeuvrability at low speed and stability at higher speeds.

Safety and assistance technology are extensive, with ten airbags listed for the Australian Electrified G80 and a broad suite of systems designed to monitor traffic and support the driver. The trade-offs are typical of a large premium EV: its size can be challenging in tight city parking, its purchase price places it firmly in the luxury category and its sedan boot cannot offer the same loading flexibility as an SUV. Owners also gain the greatest convenience when regular home or workplace charging is available. For buyers who prefer the refinement and elegance of a luxury sedan, however, the Electrified G80 offers a rare combination of 570 km WLTP range, rapid charging, strong dual-motor performance and genuine rear-seat focus in the Australian EV market.
