Hyundai Motor Co.'s premium brand Genesis on Friday unveiled its large-size sport utility vehicles (SUVs) the Genesis GV80 and GV80 Coupe Black models. 

The GV80 Black is Genesis' second Black model following the G90 Black. Genesis explained that the vehicle’s interior and exterior are finished in black, featuring exclusive materials and specifications to emphasize luxury.

The GV80 Black's exterior showcases a sleek all-black design, enhancing the vehicle’s unique body lines and shape. Even smaller elements such as the radiator grille, bumper garnish, front emblem, and the inner side bezels of the headlights are finished in black.

Additionally, glossy black 22-inch wheels and exclusive floating wheel covers come as standard.

The tailgate displays only a dark metallic Genesis lettering emblem, adding to the minimalist aesthetic.

Inside, the black color extends to every detail, combining with exclusive interior materials and specifications to create a luxurious atmosphere.

The GV80 Black features exclusive real wood garnish, seat leather, seat quilting and piping, and custom car mats.

Genesis is showcasing the GV80 Black and GV80 Coupe Black at the 29th Busan International Film Festival (BIFF), which will take place in Haeundae District, Busan, from today until next Friday.
