Muscat: The Genesis G80 Sport sedan earned five stars overall, the highest possible safety rating, from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The G80 Sport received top marks in a battery of tests in a frontal crash, side crash, and rollover scenarios.
To qualify for the prestigious, five-star rating, the G80 Sport excelled in the NHTSA evaluation, earning top marks in front driver-side and passenger-side protection, side barrier and pole impact, and rollover mitigation.
