Genesis gave the Electrified G80 a significant makeover last summer, with sharper design cues and a longer wheelbase extended by over five inches. A massive 27-inch OLED screen dominated the cabin, blending the digital gauge cluster and infotainment. Still, despite the visual and tech upgrades, the model has quietly exited the U.S. market with no formal notice or direct replacement in the lineup.
Its absence was first spotted by InsideEVs, who found the electric G80 no longer listed on Genesis’s U.S. website. That prompted clarification from the brand, confirming the EV sedan had been pulled from domestic sales. Genesis hasn’t shared any official press release, though more information is expected to shed light on the reasoning behind its removal.
Originally introduced in 2023, the electric variant echoed the appearance of its combustion sibling but swapped in an 87-kWh battery and dual motors producing 365 horsepower. Official EPA range was estimated at 282 miles, and our 75-mph highway test backed that up closely, delivering an impressive 280 miles on a single charge.
Sales traction remained elusive. After moving 1,329 units in its debut year, deliveries slid to under 400 the following year. The decline steepened through the first half of 2025, with fewer than 80 examples sold. Built in South Korea, the sedan was recently subjected to a new 15 percent import tariff, erasing its earlier exemption and likely affecting its U.S. pricing viability.
That added cost may have sealed its fate. A Genesis spokesperson told Car and Driver the electric G80 had been withdrawn from North America entirely. Changing customer demand played a key role in the decision. With no 2025 models manufactured for this region, 2024 officially closed the chapter on Genesis’s electric midsize luxury sedan.
