    The Genesis Australian launch has been pushed back multiple times over the past three years thanks to Hyundai Australia's need to launch the brand correctly in our market. 

    The brand’s flagship showroom is still under development in the Sydney CBD. While the G80 is the first cab off the Genesis rank in Australia, the smaller G70 - a BMW 3 Series competitor - will launch not long after the G80, and a range of SUVs is also due within the next few years.
