Luxury features, great performance.
Very spacious. I love the features: 360 cameras, can use the touch screen or the joystick to operate features. The trim lighting and chimes make it feel fancy. Back seat shade is great for blocking the sun. I like having multiple page views when it comes to having the speed and other details displayed on the screen.

Great car for great vehicle. The safety features are fantastic.backup camera .
This is the best car that I ever had in 40 years of driving. This car has all the bells and whistles I could wish for in any car. The performance is great as well as comfort. The backseat is also extremely comfortable. The mileage is also quite satisfactory considering the size of this vehicle.there is a couple of issues that I wish the manufacturer would have addressed. The gear selector is not up to par, as far as I am concerned. It has a bad habit of not going into gear unless you firmly put your foot on the brake. The trunk space seems to be smaller than I expected for such a large vehicle. The navigation system in this car could be more consumer friendly.

That the vehicle has major blind spots.
Drives like a dream, very spacious and it is a pretty looking vehicle. On the down side the vehicle has major blind spot. And the front view mirror vibrates every time turn the radio on. Very annoying.

Responsiveness and luxury.
Responsive, rides beautifully and very roomy and luxurious. But, some options are not intuitive, hard to find and too complex. It will take more than the 4 months I have owned it to figure everything out.

Dream ride with quiet ride.
Has excellent ride, very quiet ride, plenty of power, high end look, and very well constructed. Is extremely comfortable with leather seats, and has virtually all the current safety features. Presently appears to be a problem free car with three year warranty and no charge for maintenance.

The genesis is an affordable luxury vehicle that has an amazing driving experience
My vehicle is absolutely amazing. What I enjoy most about the vehicle is the ride quality and the appearance. The genesis comes with all the bells and whistles without becoming an outrageous priced vehicle.

Genesis G80 looks expensive but isn't. Test Drive one today.
For the price, this car is exactly what I was looking for. It has all the features of an upscale luxury car without the price tag of one. I have absolutely no complaints or regrets buying this car.

Great car for the price and it looks great.
The genesis g80 is the best car I ever bought. No problems. Rides like a dream it takes regular gas so I save a fortune driving a luxury car. Looks better than any luxury car I ever got. Dealer is the only problem since it is a Hyundai dealer. Genesis needs to be on its own.

The quality of Hyundai genesis.
To trade for it and save money somehow, because it is a very good car to drive around and enjoy the ride. The power, the performance and the lux is in this car. So far. I enjoy it a lot and love to drive it around the city. This Hyundai genesis has the quality of any Mercedes Benz.

Comfort and travel is key
Very comfortable seats, I love the look of it. Though I have had a few problems with the internal parts. Not the most reliable car though I definitely think it can get you where you need to go. It is a great family car and I am glad I bought it. The inside is absolutely beautiful.

Awesome car, I love it so much.
No problems, beautiful interior and exterior, awesome technology in the car such as lane assist, auto emergency brake, touch screen, cruise control with distance control. It is a fast car speeds and accelerates nicely. I love this car and I will never downgrade from it now.

Love my genesis and thrilled I bought it!
None. Very happy with all respects. It seems to be a wonderful car with no problems. The drive is extremely smooth and it handles wonderfully. Genesis has an excellent reputation for quality and this certainly makes the grade in my estimation. I highly recommend it.

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Joseph R.

The car drives smoothly and is very dependable. The car has great acceleration and it is very roomy inside for a family of four. The truck has lots of space for trips in the car also gets a lot of good gas mileage.

likeFilled Carlos M.

It is super fast, when I drive around people always look at my car, I like the attention, the interior is leather and I custom wrapped the trim inside it to match the outside of the car, the lights are nice looking too, LEDs all around, a new exhaust system, rims.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Joseph R.

I don't really have much as far as cons for the purchase of the car. The vehicle really performed really well and I was very satisfied. Perhaps they can produce the car I wouldn't electric motor to make it more environmentally safe. Also by putting an electric motor in the car that would eliminate the cost of purchasing gasoline.

dislikeFilled Carlos M.

It consumes too much gas, hard to control when it is raining, I can only fit one other person, I have to park far to make sure nobody hits it, I am constantly worrying about someone hitting my car, it is a pain.
