500 kilometers although we don't know what capacity battery pack will provide it we know that
its 800 volt system can recharge to 80 of the full capacity in just 20 minutes we also don't know
what kind of performance numbers it will put down although it has been reported that mechanically
similar ionic 5 will pack 313 horsepower and achieve 0 to 62 miles per hour time of 5.2 seconds

mechanically it should be similar to that of the eg80 all-electric sedan with an expected
range of 310 miles the expected launch is late 2021 after the release of the eg80 and the jw
so this completes the full genesis lineup for the 2021 and 2022 model years which has been confirmed
however there is the rumored gt coupe that was supposed to make an introduction in 2021 as a part
of six models that was strategically planned to complete the full lineup of the brand a few years
ago unfortunately there is very little information available at this time as genesis is now focused
on the timely delivery of the new electric vehicles for the brand to meet the new government
regulation to phase out the internal combustion engine vehicles globally if it is produced though
the new genesis coupe will be based on the beautiful essentia coupe concept which should
really turn some heads and put genesis among the bonafide full-line luxury car makers there
is also a possibility of the gv90 suv in the near future which would be positioned above the gv80
but we may be a couple of years away until we see the bmw x7 and cadillac escalade competition
finally all genesis provides a remarkable limited warranty and the longest powertrain coverage
in the business with five-year or 60 000 miles limited and 10-year or 100 000 miles powertrain
coverages and supplements those noteworthy protections with one of the better complementary
maintenance plans available in the industry with 3-year or 36 000 mile coverage thank you for
