  • All-new #G80 executive sedan earns TOP #safety PICK+ designation, joining the entire 2021 #genesis lineup with top honors
  • Genesis models provide the latest #safety and driver assistance technologies for customers with #safety as their top priority

FOUNTAIN VALLEY, California, May 25, 2021 – Today, the Insurance Institute for Highway #safety (IIHS) announced that the all-new 2021 #genesis #G80 executive sedan has been designated as TOP #safety PICK+ (TSP+) for 2021. With this designation, #G80 completes the 2021 #genesis lineup sweep of top honors, joining the GV80 SUV, G70 sport sedan, and G90 flagship sedan. This marks the third year in a row that #G80 has earned top honors along with G70 and G90 all having received TOP #safety PICK+ designations in 2019, 2020, and 2021.

“At #genesis, the customer is at the core of everything we do, and #safety is our top priority,” said Mark Del Rosso, President & CEO of #genesis Motor North America. “With this TOP #safety PICK+ designation from IIHS, we are pleased that #G80 joins our award-winning line-up of vehicles that places customer #safety first.”

All #genesis models are equipped with a comprehensive suite of state-of-the-art driver assistance and #safety technologies including Forward Collision Avoidance-Assist with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Keep Assist, Blind-Spot Collision Warning and more. Each vehicle in the #genesis line-up offers sure-footed handling thanks to the rigid chassis construction that ensures firm stability even under the most challenging driving conditions.

“This IIHS TSP+ award for the #G80 executive sedan, in addition to the three previous TSP+ designations awarded earlier this year, demonstrates the exceptional #safety performance and design of our entire vehicle line-up,” said Brian Latouf, Chief #safety Officer of #genesis Motor North America. “With a number of new advancements and improvements for the 2021 model year, including the first-ever Center Airbag in a #G80, we are proud that G80’s design effectively protects its occupants and performed well in the IIHS tests.”

The 2021 #genesis #G80 is equipped with the latest in #safety and driver assistance technologies, including:

  • 10 standard airbags, including one of the only Center-Side airbags on the market, further protecting front cabin occupants in the event of a collision
  • Forward Collision Avoidance-Assist with Junction Crossing and Turning, mitigating the risk of impacts when turning or crossing through an intersection
  • Blind-Spot Collision Avoidance Assist, helping reduce the chance of potential impact with a moving vehicle, upon departing a parallel parking spot
  • An all-new platform – with strong focus on #safety – including passenger compartment protection and reinforcement areas with use of advanced high strength steel for rigidity and #safety.
