As a father, the GV80’s state-of-the-art safety and technology was also appealing. “I’m honoured to be the Australian ambassador for Genesis Motors,” said Michael. “And I’m excited to be driving the Genesis GV80, a new breed of luxury SUV. It’s certainly a game changer. To the eye, the car is beautifully designed – and inside, the technology and features are amazing.”

The 43rd test captain of Australia, Michael Clarke is widely known as one of the best batsmen of all time. He dominated the cricket world from his international debut in 2003, and was named Australian test captain in 2011. In less than 18 months, he took the team from number five in the world to number one.

Michael has received the Allan Border medal on four occasions and in 2020 was awarded Officer of the Order of Australia (AO) in the Queen’s Birthday Honours List for his outstanding contribution to international cricket, the community and to charity. The Genesis GV80 debuts in Australia on Thursday, 29 October via virtual launch, during which Michael will make his first official appearance for the brand.

As a product of the design-led Genesis Global Advanced Studio, the GV80 delivers a confident and progressive take on the brand’s ‘athletic elegance’ philosophy. As well as the Genesis pillars of desirable design, advanced technology, all-road capability and superior comfort, GV80 customers will be treated to the unprecedented luxury of the Genesis-To-You service, and a convenient all-inclusive ownership experience.

“As a global luxury brand, we are extremely proud to partner with Michael Clarke as our Australian ambassador” said CEO of Genesis Motors Australia, Jun Heo. “Michael’s spirit, passion and willingness to challenge the status quo are aligned with the Genesis brand, and we are excited to be embarking on this journey with him.”
