The premium brand of the Hyundai Group appears hesitant to make the switch to EVs scheduled to start in 2025

It seems that hybrids are emerging as the new star of the electrification game, following the recent concerns about the prospects of the EV market. Genesis doesn’t want to miss out on the increasing customer demand, and will reportedly launch hybrids next to its existing lineup of ICE and EV models.

Hyundai Group previously announced that all new Genesis models set to debut from 2025 will have fully electric powertrains. However, a new report suggests that the company is hesitant in making the EV switch, and could use hybrids as an in-between step.

The fully electric range of Genesis currently comprises the GV60, Electrified GV70, and Electrified G80, but only the GV60 rides on an EV-dedicated platform. This could mean that the ICE-powered lineup of G70, GV70, G80, GV80, and GV80 Coupe, are all potential candidates for adopting hybrid technology.
