Great Car

This car is better than my previous Genesis and that's saying something because I loved my previous car. It has plenty of leg room , comfortable ride, all the safety features you could want and has updated styling.

Easily Won Over This Former BMW Owner

The G80 Sport is the perfect blend of luxury sedan and sport sedan. Quiet (and I do mean super quiet) comfort cruising on the highway with a very responsive engine and good agility for a car this size on back roads.

The best value for the money among luxury cars

More luxurious than you'd expect. Comparable to the BMW 5 series and superior to the Mercedes E class

Best car ever

I've owned 26 cars from clunkers to luxury imports. The Genesis G80 is the best I've ever had. My previous car was a 2015 Hyundai Genesis and I said the same thing about that and this one, now under the Genesis label is the same. A few little changes like LED headlights, fog lights keep it up to date and top notch. The heated seats are the best I've had too. I don't know the wattage difference for comparison, but I can feel the difference on my back wearing a light jacket on a chilly day. With AWD I get a heated steering wheel too. Seats are also comfy on a long trip. The defroster will turn itself on when needed too! This is my fifth car in the Hyundai/Genesis family in 110 years and 250,000 miles. They just keep getting better and all have been more reliable than any other brand.

Very comfortable ride

I love how well this car functions from a technology standpoint. The user interface is intuitive and the heads-up display is fantastic. Very smooth ride and my fuel economy is currently better than posted.

Great Car , Just Bought

I absolutely love this car. It is fun to drive, luxurious and comfortable. Everywhere I go, I get compliments on the looks. I went from a 2017 Buick lacrosse loaded to my 2018 g80 sport AWD. 3.3t this one heck of a car for the money even beat my 2014 Cadillac XTS premium. and I just found out there chief power train engineer I used to work under at gm . Good Job John Jirga..
