2022 Genesis GV80 Prestige Signature Slides in Just Under $80K
The new range-topping GV80 SUV has a four-seat configuration.
The new GV80 Prestige Signature looks pretty much the same, from the outside at least.
Genesis first told us about the new GV80 Prestige Signature back in December, and now, this fancypants SUV is available for your perusal on the company's consumer website. The Prestige Signature is essentially a fully loaded GV80, the highlight of which is a four-seat configuration with captain's chairs for rear passengers. Only 600 examples will be built, all priced from $78,295 (including $1,095 for destination).
As you'd expect, the Prestige Signature is stocked with premium amenities. Full LED lighting, 22-inch wheels, a panoramic sunroof, heated and cooled seats, a heated steering wheel, Lexicon audio system and Genesis' full suite of multimedia and driver-assistance technologies are all standard. The rear-seat center console has its own controller for the infotainment system, too. But considering the Prestige Signature is $10,000 more than the richest GV80 Advanced Plus, this huge feature loadout makes sense.
So sumptuous!
The GV80 Prestige Signature's only options are paint colors, and even then, there are only two on offer. Matte gray and matte white are your choices, the former paired with a dark interior scheme, the latter complemented by a beige cabin. The Prestige Signature only comes with the GV80's larger 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 engine, as well as all-wheel drive.
Considering how good the standard GV80 is, we can't imagine this Prestige Signature will be anything less than decadent. And while nearly $80,000 is certainly a lot, this still prices the Genesis well below its fanciest midsize rivals. Look for the 2022 Genesis GV80 Prestige Signature to hit the road in the coming months.
