Hyundai's Genesis unveils GX80, a breakthrough BMW rival
The Genesis GV80 luxury SUV has a lot riding on its broad shoulders. The BMW X5 and Mercedes-Benz GLE rival carries the future of Hyundai's fledgling luxury offshoot in Australia and beyond. Expected to arrive locally mid-year, it joins the new Genesis G70 and G80 sedan duo to fill an important void for Hyundai's luxury brand. Its bold exterior design cues, including a bluff grille, 22-inch wheels and split LED lights will appear on its more conservative four-door cousins in the near future. The interior brings a choice of five or seven seats in the South Korean home market, along with a whopping 14.5-inch digital display stacked with technology to rival Europe's best.
