No car is perfect and although this car hits most of the marks. The luxury design, tech, and feel help to make up for the crappy gas mileage. Not a family car, but great for 4 people. My 21' Prestige has 43k miles as I write this, runs well, and has it's quirks. On my 2nd set of tires, 3rd set of front brake pads, and 2nd set of rear shocks, but I frequently tow a small trailer.

GV80 22inch wheels

Love the car but mine came with 22 inch wheels and a blow up system instead of run flats or a spare. As I have found out, the 22 inch wheels blow much easier than smaller ones and the blow up system does not work. This leaves you with a 70k car with no spare or option other than to be towed. I have contacted genesis about this and they are not really helpful at all. This is very dangerous. If I knew I would need to buy a tire and put it in my trunk I would have paid much less money for the GV70.

Initially, I was super excited to get this as a rental as I’ve been driving, electric and hydrogen for the last couple years and wanted to go back to an SUV for my grandkids. So after my accident, they gave me a 2.5 T all wheel drive as a rental and I thought, OK this is great because I love the Hyundai brand and so maybe I will buy one of these. Positive things… The car is super comfortable! And it’s great for carrying stuff around and for loading kids in the car. The bad? The four-cylinder turbo in this car is absolutely horrible. The grown, the noisy acceleration, and. Feels super underpowered. After a few days, I realized oh my God this is the same engine that I had in my Santa Fe calligraphy that I had a couple years back. So why would you spend the extra $15-$20,000 to get the same leather, same engine etc? The navigation system is horrible, and the voice recognition is beyond worthless. My biggest issue was the safety systems which are so overly sensitive that twice. It has put me in a dangerous situation where I was trying to accelerate into traffic and the safety systems misread something that was going on, and actually just stopped me dead in my tracks as I was pulling into traffic and almost caused me twice to get hit! Definitely not worth the extra money.

Don’t buy into online hype of value for money

We bought 2.5T with prestige package and were told that tech features and safety features are same across the board. This is all a lie. Genesis is cutting corners with their newer builds. They removed HDA 2 and downgraded to HDA 1 in newer models. The reason why people buy newer models is because they are superior in tech but no, not with genesis. Genesis cars are going downhill. 2.5T doesn’t have several features with prestige package. This includes soft close with doors. Power rear features are missing and what the cheapness doesn’t stop there. They remove spare tire to save Pennie’s over dollars. Nice way to deal with chip shortage. Terrible dealership service. Dealers don’t have a clue about car features and can’t articulate them. Service warranty that hides several iffs and else. When you pay 70k for a car you don’t expect a Subaru. But, wait. Subaru are much better cars than cheap Genesis. Don’t buy into hype. Stay away.

I purchased a GV80 2.5t prestige. This is the 4th SUV I have owned over the last 14 years and by far the best purchase I have made. All my previous purchases were high end as well and this is the only one I keep getting stopped by strangers to ask about it and compliment it consistently. I was looking forward to getting a Genesis for a while now due to a great reputation but when I saw the 2023 myself and my wife said that is the one for us by far. This is the first 4 cylinder SUV and I was very impressed at the power delivered. The interior is exquisite and although I purchased the highest end trim I noticed even the base models come with more standard features than competing vehicles. It has all the bells and whistles and rides great. The safety alerts and the 3D image on the windshield giving you driving speed (besides standard location) are phenomenal. I am not the most tech savvy person, but once I got past the learning curve I was amazed at all the useful features it has and I still haven’t used everyone yet. It amazes me that I am able to have my SUV back out of a parking spot without me even being in the car. Hey, I am not going to bore you with every detail I suggest if you are looking for a luxury SUV take a look at this before deciding. Tremendous amount of features for the price versus competition. Genesis has been super customer friendly and it is a pleasure to deal with everyone. The service provided is huge. They truly want to keep their customers happy. It is good these days to see there is still some work ethics. Good luck with your next vehicle.

We really like our GV-80! It drives great and is very quiet. The extra features are excellent - nearly self driving on the highways. Cruise control and lane centering works in stop and go traffic all the way up to top speeds (it's very fast). The heads-up display is really helpful, as are the blind spot cameras. I also like that I can do software updates at home instead of having to take it to the dealer. Great car!

9 months of ownership, 4 months in the dealership. You receive the welcome light from the side mirrors first, then you receive another engine welcome light when you step into the car.

This is the beginning of my campaign. This beautiful and expensive vehicle has turned into a nightmare. Although Genesis has offered me money to be quiet and go away or opportunity to buy it back neither option is reasonable or fair. So my journey begins. It looks so nice and has all the bells and whistles but mechanically, electrically, and operationally it is flawed to the point where it is dangerous. I’ll keep you posted……please don’t buy one of these……..mine is a 2023 GV 80.

Let me tell you about my Genesis GV80 I bought in 2023, brand new, because this wasn’t just a car purchase. This was the one. He swept me off my feet. Stylish, smooth, luxurious. He had presence. He had promise. He had... lane assist. And that, my friends, was one of the main reasons I signed that dotted line. I was smitten. The first year and a half? Absolute heaven. Lane assist was the co-pilot of my dreams—confident, reliable, always there to gently guide me through traffic like a well-trained emotional support boyfriend. I used to brag about it. "Oh, you just got a Tesla? That’s cute. My GV80 ALSO senses the road.” But then—like any good Dateline episode—the relationship took a turn. It started with subtle mood swings.Like any good passive-aggressive relationship. One minute he’s hugging the lane like a supportive boyfriend, the next he’s trying to yeet himself into oncoming traffic with all the grace of a confused toddler on skates. I'm talking, “The grass is greener over there,” he whispers seductively as he swerves toward a ditch, a semi, or literally anywhere but the road. And that smug little green circle stays on like, “Yes, queen, this is definitely the way.” All I know is one day he decided that the white lines on the road were merely suggestions and that perhaps we were destined for that patch of gravel, or the loving embrace of a passing semi.Meanwhile, I’m white-knuckling the wheel, doing deep breathing exercises, and wondering if the GV80 has secretly joined a death cult. And then—oh, THEN—you add cruise control with active lane assist into the mix? That’s when things get next level. Like, “WTF, are we driving or enrolling in an experimental AI program?” Suddenly the car decides it’s self-aware, starts making executive decisions, and I’m just a passenger in what feels like a government test of trust issues. There’s nothing quite like watching your luxury SUV confidently steer itself into a lane you didn’t choose while telling you, with its smug little green ring, “Relax. I’ve got this.” Spoiler: it does not got this. So there I was, testing the very feature that sold me on this car—lane assist—stone-cold sober, yet somehow driving like I'd had three margaritas , a case of beer and 8 tequila shots. When was your first time ever using a breathalyzer? Me? That day. Not because I needed it, but because I needed to prove to the police officer (and myself) that I wasn’t the problem. Honestly, I told the cop that it’s the GV80 that needs to blow next time. He’s the one making questionable choices. And the gaslighting? Oh, it’s a masterpiece, chef’s kiss. He jerks into a new lane, narrowly avoiding vehicular Tinder, and then after nearly sideswiping a Prius and flirting with the guardrail, he flashes the “Drive Carefully” warning like I’M the unhinged one. Like, okay, Chad. Maybe if you weren’t trying to cuddle with every car in traffic, we wouldn’t be in this situation. So naturally, I took him to the dealership like, “Look, he’s not well.” But wouldn’t you know it? Smooth. Silent. The golden child. Suddenly he’s on his best behavior and performing like he just got accepted into Juilliard. “Nothing’s wrong with it,” they say. Oh sure. I bet he paid them off. Probably uploaded a Venmo payment from his built-in navigation screen while I was distracted by the massaging seat function. Classic sociopath. In conclusion, the GV80 is hot and then cold, yes and then no, in and then out, up and then down. Katy Perry was clearly describing this vehicle. It’s a toxic situationship on wheels. One minute I love him. The next, I’m wondering if he’s actively trying to kill me. Buy him if you want luxury, drama, and the adrenaline rush of never knowing if today is the day you die—or arrive in style....and the added thrill of wondering what personality your vehicle will have today. Final Verdict: 1 star — subtracting 5 for emotional trauma, adding 1 back for the heated seats.

I have had my GV80 about a year and a half and it has been PERFECT! I looked at a used Bentley Bentayga ($192k) and the Genesis had more features. Comfortable and smooth rides are amazing, and it can still be used to haul what we need to.
