Genesis is expanding its lineup in the U.S. and Canada with a new trim level called Prestige Black, starting with the 2026 model year. The package will be available on the G80 sedan, G90 sedan, GV80 SUV, and GV80 Coupe. Previously offered only in Korea, this edition focuses on a uniform dark design that changes the exterior and interior styling across these four models.
Prestige Black gives each vehicle a darker appearance by adding black finishes to areas like the front and rear bumpers, grille, Genesis emblem, headlamp bezels, and window trim. Even the radar cover for the vehicle’s driver assistance system adopts the same darkened look.
Buyers can choose between two exterior colors: Vik Black and Uyuni White. Vik Black has a shimmering finish thanks to metallic particles known as “Black Diamond Pearl,” while Uyuni White offers a soft, pearl-like look. Both colors are paired with model-specific black wheels ranging from 20 to 22 inches.
Inside, all models feature a black-themed cabin with Obsidian Black leather and open-pore ‘Black Ash’ wood on key surfaces like the dashboard and center console. Details such as air vents, door handles, dials, and buttons are also finished in black to match the overall theme.
“North American customers are increasingly looking for vehicles that express their personal style while offering exceptional craftsmanship,” said Tedros Mengiste, chief operating officer of Genesis Motor North America. “Prestige Black delivers exactly that. It’s unique, yet simple design, offers a bold new look with enhanced sophistication.”
Genesis says pricing and availability details will be announced later this year. Additional information can be found at genesis.com or by contacting a local retailer.
