Genesis GV80 Coupe 3.5T & e-SC Trims

Last updated August 4, 2026

Genesis GV80 Coupe

The 3.5T and 3.5T Base are the core GV80 Coupe trims. They pair the model’s sloping coupe-like shape and luxury-heavy cabin with a 375-hp twin-turbo V6, all-wheel drive, and a long list of comfort and technology features. The 3.5T e-SC and 3.5T e-SC MHEV form the higher-performance branch, using a 409-hp electrically supercharged V6 and sportier details. The 3.5T e-SC MHEV Prestige Black adds a coordinated black exterior and cabin theme to that higher-output formula.

Frequently asked questions

What are the Genesis GV80 Coupe trim levels?

The first-generation lineup centers on the 3.5T and the higher-output 3.5T e-SC. Newer examples may also be the 3.5T e-SC MHEV Prestige Black, which adds a full black exterior and interior theme.

What does “3.5T Base” mean on a used GV80 Coupe listing?

“3.5T Base” refers to the standard 375-hp GV80 Coupe. Despite the Base label, it has Nappa leather, heated and ventilated seats in both rows, premium audio, a head-up display, and a 27-inch OLED screen.

What is the difference between the GV80 Coupe 3.5T and 3.5T e-SC?

The 3.5T has a 375-hp twin-turbo V6. The e-SC raises output to 409 hp with a 48-volt electric supercharger and adds sportier details such as 22-inch wheels, carbon-fiber cabin trim, and black front brake calipers.

What is the difference between the e-SC and Prestige Black trims?

Prestige Black keeps the e-SC model’s 409-hp powertrain but changes the presentation. On newer examples, it adds gloss-black exterior details, dark badging, black 22-inch wheels, quilted black Nappa leather, and black ash wood trim.

What does e-SC mean on the GV80 Coupe?

e-SC identifies the higher-output engine with a 48-volt electric supercharger. It helps the twin-turbo 3.5-liter V6 produce 409 hp, compared with 375 hp in the regular 3.5T.

What does MHEV mean in the 3.5T e-SC MHEV name?

MHEV means mild-hybrid electric vehicle. In this GV80 Coupe, the 48-volt system supports the electric-supercharged V6; the vehicle is still classified as gas-powered. Some listings shorten the name to 3.5T e-SC.

Which GV80 Coupe trim makes sense if I do not need the extra power?

The regular 3.5T is the straightforward pick. It still has 375 hp, all-wheel drive, Nappa leather, premium audio, the wide OLED display, and heated and ventilated seats in both rows.

Which GV80 Coupe trim is the most performance-focused?

Look for a 3.5T e-SC or e-SC MHEV. These versions have the 409-hp electric-supercharged V6, an electronic limited-slip differential, Sport+ mode, and sportier wheel and cabin details.

Which GV80 Coupe trim has the blacked-out look?

The Prestige Black is the blackout-themed trim on newer models. It combines gloss-black exterior trim, dark badging and headlamp details, black matte 22-inch wheels, and an all-black quilted Nappa leather cabin.

Do all GV80 Coupe trims have the 27-inch OLED screen?

Yes. Across the first-generation trim lineup, the 27-inch OLED display combines the gauges, navigation, and touchscreen functions. It also includes wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Does the base GV80 Coupe have real leather and ventilated rear seats?

Yes. The regular 3.5T has Nappa leather plus heated and ventilated seats in both rows. Those comfort features are not reserved for the higher-output e-SC trims.

Do the GV80 Coupe trims use different wheels?

Yes. Higher-output e-SC models use 22-inch sport wheels, with the exact finish varying by version. Prestige Black uses black matte 22-inch wheels, while the regular e-SC has its own sport-oriented finish.

What performance hardware comes with an e-SC GV80 Coupe?

Beyond its 409-hp engine, the e-SC has an electronic limited-slip differential that helps send power where it can be used. Recent e-SC MHEV models also have electronically controlled suspension with Road Preview.

Does Prestige Black have more power than the regular e-SC?

No. Both use the same 409-hp twin-turbo V6 with a 48-volt electric supercharger, all-wheel drive, and an eight-speed automatic. Prestige Black mainly adds its darker exterior and cabin treatment.
