Genesis G80 Suffers Another Delay - You Are Going To Have Wait Until Next Year Trade In That 5 Series

The launch of the 2020 Genesis G80 has been pushed back from September to early next year, according to a new report by The Korean Car Blog.

Just last month we were told that the new G80 would premiere this month in South Korea, after its launch was first pushed back from April this year. In fact, Genesis boss Manfred Fitzgerald told Car and Driver not too long ago that the G80 would indeed be unveiled in September.

Looks just like a 30% larger G70 with G90 taillights. Not really a great thing. The G70 is visually underwhelming. Not that the E or 5 Series are fashion plates, but they're recognizable and distinctive in their segment. This G80 may already come out the gate looking dated as it has a greenhouse/roofline/rear quarter window similar to the PREVIOUS gen Lexus ES.

A blown up Chrysler 200 greenhouse. I'm not impressed with any Genesis designs at all period. There is nothing at all about the design that makes a Genesis a Genesis. It just looks like an ordinary car.

Well one thing for sure, the Genesis will probably not leak oil as much as a Bayerische does.

They need an emergency redo of the face.
