Genesis G80 (2016) 2.0 T-GDI 245 hp — premium petrol engine of the passenger segment of the Hyundai Motor Group group (Корея, 1967). Stage 1 chip tuning raises power from 245 to 280 hp (+35 hp, +14%) and torque from 353 to 400 Nm (+47 Nm). This engine ships with different ECU variants: Siemens/Continental SIM2K-240, Siemens/Continental SIM2K-240R, Siemens/Continental SIM2K-250. The flashing method is determined by the specific unit: OBD, Bench or Boot mode. In the CHIPOK database: 3 configurations · 3 ECU variants. A petrol engine built in 2016 — a Tricore platform without strong protection; OBD access works.

Genesis is positioned as a Korean rival to Mercedes, BMW and Audi. Genesis is the premium sub-brand of the Hyundai Motor Group, launched in 2015 as a standalone brand. Genesis shares platforms and engines with the Hyundai N series. T-GDI is Hyundai's badge for its direct-injection turbo petrol engines. The Hyundai N-series are sporting turbo engines for the i30 N, Elantra N and Kona N. High-output Hyundai N turbo petrol engines deliver a solid gain with Stage 1.

Within Hyundai Motor Group, ECUs are partly shared, so Hyundai files often work on Kia. On older-generation Hyundais, Stage 1 goes in over OBD without Bench. The Hyundai community in Eastern Europe has a large pool of ready-made Stage files. High-output Hyundais are the N-series and Santa Fe, with solid headroom for Stage 1.
