The Genesis interior is certainly classy, and a step above what you get with sister brands Hyundai and Kia in terms of material quality.
There are plenty of buttons beneath the twin 12.3-inch screens and on the centre console, so this is not a set-up that runs everything through the displays. That’s much better for usability, especially on the move, but not as aesthetically pleasing as a button-free cabin.
The Genesis system, also used by Hyundai, is called ccIC, which stands for connected car Integrated Cockpit. The two screens arc across a single display, with the one in front of the driver giving the dashboard display information, and the central one controlling everything from media to sat-nav and vehicle settings.
Below the screen is a separate climate control panel, with buttons to adjust the temperature and demist, plus shortcuts to some of the more popular items on the touchscreen menu: map, nav, radio and media.
Then you have a volume control button and a handy, and increasingly rare, rotary dial. This controls the main infotainment screen and is much handier for making changes on the move. Behind the drive selector are more buttons, which control the parking sensors and auto hold, plus the heated/ventilated seats and heated steering wheel functions. Which, in contrast to what you might think, are nowhere near the climate controls.
