The brand claims 19 percent of the new platform uses aluminum, saving {{cvt|243|lb}} compared to the previous model which used steel. Compared to the outgoing G80, the new model has increased tensile strength by 6 percent due to the usage of high-strength steel in both the A and B pillars, floor crossmembers and rocker panels. The rear subframe is more rigid and has larger bushings for decreased NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness). The torsional rigidity is improved by 3 percent, which deducts {{cvt|55|lb}} of its weight.

The vehicle is {{cvt|5|mm}} longer, {{cvt|35|mm}} wider, {{cvt|15|mm}} lower, and retains its {{cvt|3010|mm}} wheelbase.

The design language of the Genesis includes quad-headlamps, and a large crest grille. The side profile features a parabolic line, and a fastback-type side view. The rear uses taillamp styling similar to the headlamps. The vehicle features Nappa leather seats. The vehicle also continues using Open Pore wood trim and has slim air conditioning vents. The horizontal layout of the dashboard was inspired by what the brand calls “Beauty of White Space”, which is Genesis’ interior styling design that is made to give the vehicle a "South Korean feel".{{cite web|url=https://www.genesis.com/worldwide/en/models/luxury-sedan-genesis/g80/design.html|title=Genesis G80 Design|website=Genesis Worldwide}} There is also a glass covered SBW (shift-by-wire) transmission.

Hyundai revealed the facelifted G80 on December 14, 2023, for the 2024 model year. Updates include micro-lens array headlight technology, a new grille pattern and front bumper, and redesigned alloy wheels. The rear bumper now features hidden exhaust outlets with "V-shape" chrome trim, reminiscent of the battery electric G80 variant. The interior changes include a 27-inch OLED display, replacing the separate 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and 14.5-inch infotainment system, powering the brand's latest CCIC software first seen in the GV60 small SUV and flagship G90 sedan. It also introduces a "crystal-like" shift-by-wire gear shifter, a touch-based climate control panel, revised trim, and a new steering wheel. The G80 Sport adds a unique "double-layered G-Matrix pattern" grille, larger air outlets, different front and rear bumpers, a D-cut steering wheel, and two carbon-look interior garnishes. The updated G80 will be available in ten exterior colors, including the new Brooklyn Brown, and four interior color options.{{cite web|url=https://www.whichcar.com.au/news/2024-genesis-g80-facelift-revealed-australian-timing-confirmed|title=2024 Genesis G80 facelift revealed, Australian timing confirmed|first=Jordan|last=Hickey|website=WhichCar|date=14 December 2023|access-date=27 March 2024}}

It is available in a dual-motor, all-wheel drive configuration. It uses two electric motors (272 kW combined), one at each axle, and a 87.2 kWh battery. The vehicle can charge from 10% to 80% in 22 minutes, if a 350 kW charger is available. Just like the Ioniq 5, it has a vehicle-to-load (V2L) function, meaning that various appliances like laptops or electric bikes can be plugged into the car (instead of a wall socket) and use the car as their power source. The Electrified G80 can be equipped with an optional solar roof.

The interior contains recycled materials, including leather made with natural dye (seats, console and rear seat armrests), scrap wood produced after making furniture ("forged wood" garnish) and thread spun from plastic bottles. The Electrified G80 offers a Disconnector Actuator System (DAS), an Active Noise Control-Road (ANC-R) system, a Preview Electronic Control Suspension (Pre-view ECS), a solar charging roof, a Vehicle to Load (V2L) system and a 400/800V multi rapid charging system.{{Cite news |title=현대차 '제네시스' 첫 전기차 모델, 상하이모터쇼에서 공개 |language=ko |work=《경향신문》 |url=http://biz.khan.co.kr/khan_art_view.html?artid=202104192218025&code=920508 |access-date=April 20, 2021}}
