Inside Tiger Woods’ $50000 SUV The Safety Features Of The Genesis

Описание: In Tuesday’s press conference detailing the events of Tiger Woods’ car crash, Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva said the 45-year-old golfer is “lucky to be alive” and credited Woods’ survival to his car's 10 airbags and the fact he was wearing a seatbelt. The accident has understandably brought a lot of attention to the South Korean luxury vehicle manufacturer Genesis—as Woods was driving Genesis’ newest SUV, the GV80, as part of a golf event the luxury car maker was sponsoring. The GV80 is so new that the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) hasn’t yet given it a rating. However, the brand’s rated vehicles, the G90 and G70, have both received superior scores across the board including the coveted IIHS Top Safety Pick. It’s expected that the G80 and GV80 will also fare very well when it comes to the safety tests. Having driven the all-new Genesis GV80, I can attest to its ultra-high build quality, sound construction and plentiful active safety features. So what are those safety features you ask? Let’s break them down:State-of-the-art, advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) include:Additional ADAS features debuting on the 2021 GV80 include:It’s important to note that all of these safety features exist to prevent a crash or aid in the event of a crash. What they can’t do, of course, is increase the build quality of a vehicle, which is one of the most important factors in a crash. Most drivers assume that just because they are in a large vehicle, that it’s safe. That’s not the case. A vehicle’s build quality is of the utmost importance, regardless of size. That is exactly what Genesis has done with its entire lineup, putting safety and build-quality at the forefront of its focus while developing a new luxury brand that may have helped save the life of Tiger Woods.
