Genesis did not provide specific times for using a 240-volt Level 2 system, like those many EV owners are installing. It did note the use of a new, higher-power onboard system to reduce charging times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the Seoul debut, Genesis noted that some specifications will change, depending on individual markets. Specifics for the U.S. have yet to be released, including pricing and the exact timing of its American launch.
