Genesis Motor North America has officially introduced its sophisticated Prestige Black trim level to the U.S. and Canadian markets for the 2026 model year. Previously exclusive to Korea, this dramatic new design package will now be available on four Genesis models: the G80 executive sedan, G90 flagship sedan, GV80 SUV, and GV80 Coupe.

This striking monochrome design package adds a bold layer of refinement to Genesis vehicles, offering a fresh option for customers who value style, exclusivity, and craftsmanship.

Prestige Black: A Bold Evolution in Genesis Design

The Genesis Prestige Black trim enhances each model with a blacked-out, highly coordinated aesthetic. Design elements include:

  • Darkened front and rear bumpers
  • Gloss black radiator grille
  • Blacked-out Genesis emblem and model lettering
  • Unique dark pattern for ADAS radar cover
  • Black headlamp inner bezels and daylight opening moldings

Genesis is offering two exterior color options exclusive to Prestige Black:

  • Vik Black – A pure black with a shimmering effect, inspired by Icelandic volcanic beaches
  • Uyuni White – A creamy-white pearl finish, inspired by Bolivia’s famous salt flats

Each model is equipped with exclusive black alloy wheels ranging from 20 to 22 inches, depending on the vehicle.
