The Genesis G80 amazes with an elegant body and refined materials inside. Fully redesigned a year ago, this midsize luxury sedan from Korea returns for 2022 with an all-electric variant called Electrified G80 that promises more than 400 kilometres of range along with 0-100 km/h acceleration in 4.9 seconds. The conventionally powered models, meanwhile, use four- and six-cylinder engines, both of which are turbocharged and mated to an all-wheel drive system.
