Genesis Rules!

2019 Genesis G80 3.8 4dr Sedan AWD (3.8L 6cyl 8A)

The best quality, luxury, service, ride in a car is the Genesis. I have the G80 and it is by far better than any other car previously leased. Service is outstanding - they pick up my car, service it, detail it and fill the tank with gas before dropping if off in my driveway. It is self driving, heated seats front and back, smart cruise, comfortable on long trips, luxury all around. Just love it.

2020 G80 5.0 V8

I just took delivery of a 2020 G80 5.0 Ultimate AWD model. Last year for the G80 V8. This car is impressive in so many ways. It may not quite match the German turbo V8 cars for power (it's naturally aspirated, not turbocharged), but for $30,000+ less, it is very impressive nonetheless. I think 420 HP is plenty for me. It's more power than you can use most of the time. Effortless cruising, passing and highway entry. In addition, Genesis is rated higher than the German brands for reliability. If you don't need the perceived "snob appeal" of a German car, the Genesis is the smart buyer's choice. Great warranty, 5 years maintenance and concierge service seal the deal. After 2 years, the car has been absolutely reliable, though I should expect it would be, with only 23,000 km (a little over 14,000 miles) on the odometer. I just had my second service visit (oil and filter, cabin air filter, various inspections) and of course, this is included in the price of the car, whether you lease or buy.

not sure why some reviewer compare this to an Azera or there is not enough luxury and/or talk smack about Korean cars. The Genesis will definitely keep pace with Mercedes and BMWs. I have owned two Mercedes E430 and SLK in the past. Now I can truly love to be able to enjoy a luxury car and keep $10 to $20k in my wallet. Also, Genesis comes with 5 years bumper to bumper warranty and a 10 years powertrain warranty. Plus a bunch of awards.... Unfortunately, there are way too many uneducated consumers out there that enjoy pissing their cash in the wind.

I am 83 and this is my third Genesis which is the Sport model. For you young guys she will do 60 in4.5 seconds. My only complaint is the gas usage. It should be better. PS my wife likes the vehicle. Hoss B
