Nothing's official, but Hyundai at one point included an additional crossover in Genesis' product guide for the future. With its corporate siblings offering myriad crossover sizes, Genesis could probably go bigger like the Hyundai Palisade or smaller like the possibly upcoming Kia Seltos.
New in 2020
The debut crossover's introduction is on track for early next year, with sales starting in spring or summer.
New in 2021
The smaller of the two confirmed crossovers is expected in 2021, a year after the GV80.
Freshen in 2019
A freshened G90 is imminent in the U.S. after going on sale in South Korea.
Redesign in 2020
A redesigned G80 is coming to the U.S. next year on a platform it will share with the GV80 crossover.
Freshen in 2021
The sedan, on a rear-wheel-drive platform with optional all-wheel drive, has won a lot of accolades since hitting the market last year, including North American Car of the Year from automotive journalists.
The new crossover shares its platform with the popular Hyundai Kona subcompact crossover, but has not been confirmed for sale in the U.S. The Seltos is built in Korea and India. U.S. journalists taken to Korea to drive the crossover compared it favorably with the Kona. The Seltos would slot just below the Niro (which only comes as a hybrid, plug-in or EV) in Kia’s lineup. Given the Niro’s weak sales relative to the Kona, the Seltos seems like a compelling product for the U.S.

The EV version of the electrified crossover (hybrid, plug-in hybrid) arrived in 2019 with nearly 250 miles of range for electric enthusiasts in a dozen U.S. states.
Freshen in 2021
Redesigned for the 2019 model year, the second-generation of the sedan is bigger and significantly more luxurious — and expensive — than the Cadenza.
Freshen in 2019
Although the large sedan had yet to sell 1,000 units this year through July, it helps establish Kia’s credentials as a near-premium contender at the higher end of its lineup (Stinger, K900 and Telluride included).
Freshen in 2020
Kia’s entry into the compact luxury segment was a revelation when it arrived for the 2018 model year, further marking its Genesis-like intentions.
