    Does anyone know when the Genesis SUV be available in Ireland?

    According to this link, it was supposed to arrive by early 2022 but no sign of it yet.

    That article said it 'could' arrive rather than it was arriving. I note it was from June 2021 and lots has changed since. Whatever plans there were may have been revisited.

    Wouldn't be my cup of tea but I imagine it would sell well here.

    €1250 in motortax for that one. I would be surprised if they came here and if they did, they actually sold more than a few dozen at best (most would probably be Dealer Demo models). We are a pretty small market for a niche like Genesis.

    Might sell some if they can be commercialised for €333 motor tax.

    Looking for an update:

    Are there any rumors of the GV80 coming to Ireland?

    There are rumours, but not the kind you're looking for. Rather, Genesis not coming to Ireland any time soon. They're not cheap cars and the market would be tiny.
