If you're unfamiliar with Genesis, it's the luxury arm of Hyundai.
Many brands are doing the same nowadays. Even Volvo, despite working its way into contention with its superbly designed cars, has an off-shoot called Polestar. However, in fairness, that's more a luxury all-electric marque designed to rival Tesla.
Nevertheless, middle-of-the-pack manufacturers like Hyundai, who know they’ll never turn the public opinion of its brands into line with Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Audi, have come up with the next best thing: invent a new marque. One that's got a clean slate.
It has worked quite well for some so far, with Genesis producing a raft of cars which, on the surface, look amazingly opulent.
Here, we’re looking at its big saloon: the G80 – in the new Sport Line – or Sport, as Genesis prefers us to call it, trim.
