Charging Speed

The Genesis G80 Electrified has the higher published DC charging figure at 240 kW, which is roughly 33% higher than the BMW i4 eDrive35 at 180 kW. In practice, that figure only tells part of the story. The charging curve, battery temperature, and state of charge all affect how quickly your car actually charges.

For the published fast-charge window, the Genesis G80 Electrified is listed at about 22 minutes, which is 9 minutes quicker than the BMW i4 eDrive35 at 31 minutes. On a road trip, that difference adds up over multiple stops.

Range and Efficiency

The Genesis G80 Electrified has a WLTP rated range of approximately 520 km, which is roughly 6 km more than the BMW i4 eDrive35 at approximately 514 km. WLTP is a standardized lab test. Expect your actual range to be lower, varying with speed, weather, terrain, and driving style.

Efficiency matters more than battery size for daily driving costs. The BMW i4 eDrive35 consumes 147 Wh/km, compared to 184 Wh/km for the Genesis G80 Electrified. That means the BMW i4 eDrive35 uses less energy per kilometer, which translates to lower charging costs and fewer charging stops on longer drives.

A more efficient car does not always mean more range. Battery size plays a role too. The Genesis G80 Electrified has approximately 90 kWh of useable battery , while the BMW i4 eDrive35 has approximately 67.1 kWh.

Which One Should You Choose?

If fast charging is your priority, the Genesis G80 Electrified has the higher published DC figure (up to 240 kW) and the shorter published charge time at approximately 22 minutes. For long road trips, published stop time matters more than the headline kW number alone.

Both cars support 11 kW AC charging, so home and workplace charging speeds will be similar.

If you mostly charge at home or at work and care more about daily driving costs, the BMW i4 eDrive35 is the more efficient choice at 147 Wh/km. Lower consumption means lower electricity bills over time.

For maximum range between charges, the Genesis G80 Electrified has a WLTP rated range of approximately 520 km, which is roughly 6 km more. Both are capable EVs. The best choice depends on how you charge and how far you drive.

From Finn, engineer: Charging specs alone do not tell the full story. Real-world charging speed depends on battery temperature, state of charge, and the charger itself. These comparisons use manufacturer-published data. Approximate values only.
