The 2020 Genesis G80 offers pleasing comfort, a ton of features, and an unmatchable price. It comes up short in a few minor areas, but overall the G80 should please many shoppers looking for a midsize luxury sedan.

From Cadillac to Genesis

2019 Genesis G80 3.8 4dr Sedan AWD (3.8L 6cyl 8A)
My original review of my Genesis G80 was 5 stars. I traded in a Cadillac. I updated my review, after owning it for 3 years and selling it. I traded it in for a GM car. I only had 6,000 miles on it so why would I get rid of it? It comes down to issues I had, and the lack of response Genesis had to what can only be described as either poor technology choices and lack of concern about … the impact on Customers. I bought this car new in January 2019 and by that summer was having issues with Sirius/XM and the head unit. I wasn't alone as comments on the Genesis Owners Forum demonstrate. Genesis was of zero help. The head unit would freeze up and they acted as if it was strictly a Sirius/XM problem.
I also often had issues when using Apple CarPlay. The latest issue was with Genesis Connected Services which I view as their version of OnStar. I have OnStar in my other vehicles and want Connected Service for the same reasons, crash support, stolen vehicle assistance, etc. Well, after renewing Connected Services for another year, I got a brief email from Genesis telling me that after December 2022, Connected Services will no longer work. This is apparently because my 2019 G80 has a 3G modem and there is no way to upgrade it. My 2018 GMC Sierra doesn't have that problem because GM has been preparing for the 3G issue since 2016. The other insult to injury is that not all 2019 G80's were affected because some have 4G modems. It's the price I paid for buying it in January. So, the buttons on the mirror will look nice but provide no function. There are several other reasons I dumped the G80 and moved back to GM, but I will never buy another Genesis. For this, my second update, I'm still happy with my Denali because everything works as it should, including self-parking. Will never look at another Genesis.
My 3rd consecutive Genesis

2020 Genesis G80 3.8 4dr Sedan (3.8L 6cyl 8A)
My 2020 G80 was a no brainer for me when my 2018 G80 lease was up. I started my love of the Genesis in 2012 with the prior generation, when it was under the Hyundai nameplate. In 2015 I leased the current generation Genesis (still under Hyundai nameplate).
2018 marked my 1st under its own division. I say the G80 is a no brainer simply because there isn't any other vehicle within its … price category that gives you as much as three G80 does.
I've always had the 3.8 V6 and never once thought I needed more power. I enjoy the ultra quiet cabin as well as the exceptional seat comfort. The 3 years of Genesis valet is icing on the cake, never having to return to the dealer (for any reason) the valet service is simple thru the Genesis app on my smart phone. My car is picked up at my place of employment, a loaner dropped off and then returned when service is completed (nicely detailed, I might add).
I always choose one convenience option package up from the base model, which gives me anything from smart cruise to lane departure to 3d view cameras to aid in parking, also included is heated seats front and back as well as air conditioned front seats. The Upgraded Lexicon sound system is among the best I've experienced in a vehicle. My combined MPG (mostly city than highway) is always around 21 mpg. I really hoped the GV80 suv was available when my lease was up but I'll look forward to that in the next 30 months while I enjoy my 4 Genesis vehicle.
Sweet car with all the amenities needed
5 out of 5 starsFred C, 05/13/2019
2019 Genesis G80 3.8 4dr Sedan AWD (3.8L 6cyl 8A)
Great car, 3.8 has really good acceleration and the base model has all the safety features anyone would need. pre collision warning, lane assist, pedestrian crossing, etc. The interior is easy to use and very functional with a smooth quiet and comfortable ride. No regrets, this is by far the nicest car I have ever purchased and for the money it feels like a steal. I was very weary about … purchasing a Genesis but after test driving others in the same class, most cost thousands more without the same features I went back to the G80 and I haven't looked back. Great car even better when you consider the price tag to its rivals.
Update:
*Just over 18 months and I’m still loving this car. I’ve got over 20k on this car and everything is still going strong. Love this car.
Excellent Car!

2019 Genesis G80 3.3T Sport 4dr Sedan (3.3L 6cyl Turbo 8A)
Bought the 3.3 turbo (Sport) version after having leased the 3.8 AWD for 3 years prior. Satisfies most all my wants from the 3.8L, much better handling, great acceleration, much younger demo target (I'm 50) than the 3.8L which seems to attract the older crowd. Still the mpg is a major downside for the car but beyond that it's just a well built, well thought through, excellent car to … drive. I've got a 1hr+ commute each way to work so I need some isolation, comfort, and when traffic permits a little joy on my drive which I get daily in the G80 sport. Also the Audio system by Lexicon is top notch, combined with the noise-isolated cabin my drive is as relaxing as can be. Contrary to the poster above, there is an auto trunk shut button if that is important to you! While I'm leasing this car I'm buying it at the end of my lease for sure.
