The 2025 Genesis GV80 Coupe proves to be a real crowd-pleaser
Briefly

The Genesis GV80 showcases a 27-inch OLED screen that combines the instrument cluster and infotainment display, marking a significant upgrade compared to previous models. While the infotainment system is user-friendly, drivers often rely on casting via Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, requiring wired connections despite claims of wireless functionality. Notably, the vehicle features heated seats that warm quickly, and an innovative center console that also warms when seat heaters are activated. Under the guidance of Albert Biermann, the GV80 Coupe offers impressive vehicle dynamics, ensuring a smooth ride over uneven surfaces.
