Hey everyone! I just picked up a new Electrified G80 and I'm absolutely loving the quiet ride and those eco-friendly materials. However, I’m looking to personalize the cabin a bit without ruining the classy aesthetic. I’m specifically considering some premium all-weather floor mats that don't look too 'industrial' and maybe a sleek center console organizer since that storage bin is a bit of a black hole. I’ve also been looking at tempered glass screen protectors for the wide infotainment display to keep fingerprints at bay. Has anyone found specific brands that fit the G80 EV perfectly? What interior upgrades have you guys found are actually worth the investment for this model?
So I picked up my Electrified G80 back in April and honestly, that "black hole" console drove me crazy for the first week. I actually lost my key fob in there for like two hours once... not my proudest moment lol. Anyway, after experimenting with a few things, here is what I recommend for keeping it classy:
1. **Floor Mats**: You gotta skip the rubbery industrial ones because they kill the luxury vibe. I went with the TuxMat Genesis Electrified G80 Custom Floor Mats and they're basically perfect because they have a leather-like texture that matches the interior perfectly.
2. **Console Organizer**: For the storage issue, I grabbed a VehicleOCD Genesis G80 Center Console Organizer Tray and it literally saved my life. It's a simple drop-in but actually makes the space usable.
3. **Screen Protector**: I highly recommend the Spigen Tempered Glass Screen Protector for Genesis G80 14.5 inch Infotainment Display to stop those greasy fingerprints. It has a matte-finish oleophobic coating that works way better than the factory glass tbh.
Just make sure you get the EV-specific mats because the floor pan is slightly different from the gas model due to the battery placement! gl with the new ride!
Sooo, safety is priority #1 with floor mats in an EV cuz if they slide under the pedals, it's bad news!! I highkey recommend 3D MAXpider KAGU Floor Mats for Genesis G80 EV—they look sleek and use patented MAXpider backing to stay put. Alternatively, TuxMat Custom Fit Floor Mats for Genesis Electrified G80 offers FANTASTIC coverage while keeping things classy. Both are way safer than generic 'industrial' ones imo. Good luck!! 👍
Stumbled upon this discussion and honestly, I gotta warn you: DO NOT buy any interior accessories labeled for the standard gas G80 without double-checking the fitment for the Electrified version first. I made that mistake with a set of 'custom' mats and because of the way the battery pack raises the floor pan, they didn't sit flush at all. It looked super cheap and actually got stuck under the accelerator once... lowkey terrifying ngl.
For your situation, here's what I recommend:
- Look for mats that use a 'press-fit' or have specific clips for the Genesis floor pegs. The industrial rubber ones like you see from WeatherTech are usually too thick and mess with the seat tracks. I'd suggest looking at brands that offer a 'leatherette' quilted finish—I think it matches the eco-friendly vibe much better than chunky rubber.
- For the screen, avoid the thick tempered glass. The G80 display is slightly curved at the edges, and most glass protectors are flat, so you get those ugly air bubbles on the sides. A matte anti-glare film is probably way better for hiding fingerprints anyway.
- Check for a console tray that has a rubber lining. The plastic-on-plastic ones rattle like crazy when your driving over bumps, and since the car is so quiet, you'll hear every single vibration.
Basically, the EV's interior is sensitive. I had issues with a cheap organizer scratching the side trim cuz it was too tight. It’s a bit of a learning curve since this car is sooo different from the gas versions I've owned before. Has anyone else noticed the floor height difference, or is it just me?? Anyway, its worth getting the right stuff. gl! ✌️
So basically the consensus is:
1. Watch the fitment! Gas G80 parts wont fit that raised EV floor.
2. An organizer tray is basically essential.
I honestly had issues with pricey "luxury" mats that just felt like a rip-off. Ngl, I spent too much and was still disappointed with the vibe. Not sure but I think I heard some people are scoring cheaper alternatives online that fit better? Gl!
Finally someone says it. Ive been thinking this for a while but wasnt sure.
