Used 2020 Genesis G80 Sedan Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

Three trims are available across the G80 line: 3.8, 3.3T Sport and 5.0. The different numbers represent the type of engine in each car. Every G80 uses an eight-speed automatic transmission and can be configured with either rear-wheel or all-wheel drive.

Though the 3.8 is the starter G80, its 3.8-liter V6 pumps out a not-insignificant 311 horsepower and 293 lb-ft of torque. Standard feature highlights include 18-inch wheels, adaptive cruise control, leather seating and heated front seats. Two packages — Sport and Ultimate — ramp its features up to genuinely opulent levels (color head-up display, 17-speaker audio and premium leather upholstery).

The 3.3T Sport earns its title with turbocharged 365-hp 3.3-liter V6 and 376 lb-ft of torque. The 3.3T Sport also comes with 19-inch wheels, an adaptive suspension and carbon-fiber interior trim.

The 5.0 Ultimate's 5.0-liter V8 produces 420 hp and 383 lb-ft of torque. It is fitted with all the features of the 3.8 Ultimate plus a few extras including 19-inch wheels and a simulated suede headliner.

Which G80 trim does Edmunds recommend?

The only way to get the smooth and powerful turbocharged 3.3-liter V6 is in the 3.3T Sport trim, so that's the G80 we recommend. The base 3.8-liter V6 lacks the 3.3's snort and the V8, though smooth, isn't competitive with German rivals' top engines.
