Since its introduction, the Genesis G80 has been an extremely competitive option in the luxury sedan market. Genesis has designed a truly remarkable vehicle inside and out that simply oozes luxury in every aspect. They have equipped every vehicle with a capable powertrain and a host of safety features that one would expect on such a high quality vehicle. To top it all off, The Genesis G80 is priced extremely competitively, and positions itself as one of the best values in the market. Pros of the Genesis G80 outweigh the cons of the Genesis G80, but we’ll let you make that decision on your own.

The Genesis G80 is a four door luxury sedan that has quickly cemented itself as an ideal option for drivers looking for top quality design at a competitive price. Previously known simply as the Hyundai Genesis, the G80 was completely redesigned in 2016 to celebrate the launch of the Genesis brand. Since then, Genesis has continued to improve and perfect the G80 into the impressive driving machine we see today. The Genesis G80 boasts one of the most luxurious driving experiences, while also delivering power under the hood and plenty of features to go around.

Being such a carefully developed, award-winning sedan means that the Genesis G80 has a long list of pros. The opulent interio is not only stunning to look at, but is also packed with features and provides one of the most comprehensive driving experiences available today. Under the hood is a powerful engine that makes you wonder how Genesis was able to put so much into a sedan at this price point! Those are just a few of the pros of the Genesis G80. Below we go into more detail about all the pros of the Genesis G80.

The Genesis G80 has always stayed competitive by being not just nice to look at, but an impressive driving machine as well. The recent model years have two different engines available, a 2.5L Turbo, and a 3.5L Twin-Turbo Sport. Both will provide exceptional speed and handling, but the 3.5L engine is the fastest option with 375 horsepower under the hood. Most luxury sedans will focus on space and comfort, and give up having a quick engine. Luckily, the Genesis G80 didn’t have to make that compromise.

The Genesis G80 has remained as one of the most impressive looking luxury sedans on the market. You are sure to catch the eyes of other drivers with the sleek and modern exterior styling. The high tech yet sophisticated design combines elements of other luxury sedans while also bringing its own unique look that puts it far and above the rest.

They say not to judge a book by its cover, but in the case of the Genesis G80, you certainly can. The interior is just as impressive and carefully designed as the exterior. The standard trim models provide top quality materials and a host of infotainment features. The seats provide a plethora of leg room, while also feeling like a soft and comforting cushion to sit on. There are also many extra add ons and features available that combine to make the Genesis G80 feel like a moving palace.

With such a carefully designed vehicle, nothing but the best safety features are expected. The Genesis G80 delivers with a well equipped suite of standard safety features. Standard technology on the G80 includes automatic emergency braking with cyclist and pedestrian detection, evasive steering, lane departure warnings with lane keep assist, blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alerts and safe exit assist. It’s no wonder that the Genesis G80 has earned both a Top Safety Pick+ rating from the IIHS and a five-star overall rating from the NHTSA.

Luxury sedans can skyrocket in price with so many features and high quality designs. However, the G80 has always been very competitively priced in the luxury sedan market. Compared to other sedans in this sector, the Genesis G80 provides much more inside and out. It is not only cheaper than the Acura TLX, Cadillac CT5 and Lexus ES, but it is also just as, if not more, luxurious and powerful! The Genesis brand has always been known for its ability to provide unrivaled luxury for the price, and the G80 is a perfect example of that philosophy.

It’s important to consider not only the pros but also the cons of a vehicle before buying it. The Genesis G80 is a very well rounded vehicle with many positive features, but it does have a few minor drawbacks. Below we have listed what we believe may be considered cons of the Genesis G80.

Genesis designed the G80 to feature a spacious and luxurious cabin with a powerful engine under the hood. This means that in the end, the fuel efficiency of the G80 isn’t comparable to some of the other, more economical sedans. However, the newest Genesis G80 can still get 25 mpg combined. This is not only very respectable for a large four door sedan, but is nearly identical to the competitors.

The G80 doesn’t rank very well in terms of resale value, holding just about 50% of its resale value after 5 years. I See Cars gives the G80 a score of 7.7/10 that factors in reliability, resale value, and safety. That score may seem low, but considering that there are only a few luxury sedans that are ranked any higher, the Genesis is perfectly comparable to other luxury sedans. In the end, every luxury sedan is going to struggle to hold its value over time. While the Genesis G80 is not an exception, it is still safe and reliable, and will be a great vehicle for many years.

Although the Genesis G80 still has a very capable and surprisingly quick engine, it can still seem a little underpowered compared to other top of the line sedans. The G80 was designed with maximum luxury and comfort in mind, which does add quite a bit of extra weight to the vehicle. Additionally, Genesis wanted to provide powertrain options that would provide plenty of horsepower without breaking the bank. The two engine options in the G80 are by no means slow, but they are still not the fastest or most powerful options on the market. Genesis chose a balanced approach between power, fuel efficiency, and price, instead of only providing power and possibly sacrificing the other two factors.

It’s important to know all of the pros and cons of the Genesis G80 before you consider purchasing it. So now that you know the pros of the Genesis G80 as well as the cons of the Genesis G80, you can make an informed decision for yourself. The G80 has proven to be one of the best vehicles in its sector, with unrivaled luxury for the price.
