Inside The $79,000 Genesis GV80, A True Luxury SUV | Cars & Bikes | Forbes

- The Genesis GV80 rolls into the 2025 model year with a mild facelift, new wheels, fresh colors, and a slew of interior enhancements to make this mid-size luxury crossover even more appealing. Starting with the exterior, the automaker has meticulously re-sculpted the front fascia and fine-tuned the Genesis signature diamond-crest front grille. The G-Matrix façade now boasts the company's latest MLA (Micro Lens Array) technology for headlight illumination-smaller, lighter, and more efficient than last year's offering. The emblem has been carefully tweaked with more texture, adding to the vehicle's overall aesthetic appeal. A closer look reveals more oversized front air intakes and the lower skid plate has been cosmetically enhanced with a silver-tone.
Opening the doors reveals the more significant year-over-year improvements-and a passenger cabin more opulent than that found in a Gulfstream private jet. An expansive 27-inch OLED screen is now used to display the instrument cluster and infotainment screen-everything is controlled by a new rotary controller conveniently mounted on the center console. The two-spoke steering wheel has grown an extra spoke-the objective was to optimize ergonomics, says the automaker. Genesis designers have also reworked some of the minute details to bring the cabin even more upmarket.
Under the tested 2025 Genesis GV80 3.5T Prestige AWD hood is a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 rated at 375 horsepower. Mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission, it propels the 4,100-lb crossover from a standstill to 60 mph in about 5.5 seconds.

The German brands are making horrible cars right now. Meanwhile brands like Genesis are KILLING it. Beautiful car.
not on Earth
@@DaFactsNoNonsense1713yes on earth search up the best mid-size suv its genesis
The resale value on this car is way better than those German brands so I'm definitely in all the way!!
This is a 2025 not 2024
There's are some factual inaccuracies in this video. First of all, Genesis started out as RWD sedan under Hyundai. It wasn't a top trim of their vehicles at the time. Secondly, this is a 2025 model, not a 24. Third, both endings aren't turbo 6 engines. The base engine is a 2.5L inline 4 turbo, & the upgraded engine is a 3.5L twin-turbo V6
Bentley cut corners sort of cut corners Bentayga by using the MLB platform, and it shows with how close the front wheels are to the body. Meanwhile, Hyundai's Genesis division made sure their vehicles, not just the GV80, would have short front overhang and great dash-to-axle ratio by using a dedicated rear-wheel drive first platform. Incredible effort from Genesis.
WHY is she referring to this as a 2024? Thai is a 2025!!
Looks better than any lexus
Hyundai Kia are the new Toyota Honda. They are killing it
that would be impossible because Honda/Toyota, actually make good cars, that have REALLY SUPERIOR engines/drive-trains = Hyundai's the exact OPPOSITE of that, so stop lying about this
@@DaFactsNoNonsense1713why so serious??
@@DaFactsNoNonsense1713 mean while japanese car brands including toyota faking specs and engines xD
@@Polar_Bear._. if you think this cars better than a Toyota, then I got a bridge I'd like to sell you 😆😅🤣😭
Honda always having problems with their doors
Absolutely beautiful
Sooo much classier than a Mercedes
in backwards land, where everything good, is bad = you just said this on-purpose
S a l t y
Great car, Sweet and short review. Perfection 👌🏽🔥
I had a 2022 Hyundai. My local Hyundai dealer was also a Genesis dealer. That Hyundai was nothing but problems. The dealership and corporate were all equally terrible. Doesn’t matter if you have a check engine light on - see you in 45 days. I traded it in last month for a Lexus. I’d never consider a Genesis.
Ahh the comments below from haters never fails to entertain me. Every quarter, Hyundai/Kia/Genesis trio keeps increasing mwrket share and the haters are loosing it, lol.
I'd pick this over bmw x5
poor decision
@@SL-pu2xj not really
@@SL-pu2xjbmw is a joke nowadays after china owns the company partially.
@@SL-pu2xj Why? I'm a fan of BMW and there are several logical reasons people would take Genesis over BMW (including me), but let's hear your points?
Cost. I am shocked at the price of a x5 at a similar trim.
A little refrigerator would be nice.
That would make this car closer to the price of the G90, which wouldn’t be good, as the GV90 is said to come out next year, and that would mean they would need to price that even higher.
Too bad we ain't got Genesis in Europe
The issue is still the small dealer network and customer service experience.

Would rather get approved for a mortgage 😂 than spend that much on cars.
Genesis is more of a quality brand, than Mercedes-Benz and BMW, Audi!. At least in terms of reliability and durability. 😎
Great car! I'm buying the X5
SCOTT REISS THIS IS A VERY NICE CAR YOU MIND IF I TEST DRVE IT?............ WITH THIS TYPE OF CAR ILL BE ABLE TO MAKE IT TO WORK ON TIME ITS A VERY NICE CAR
Wow How much money did u get from hyundai 😂😂
They have to make money. This kind of content is why you're able to access so much Forbes content for free.
@@The_Big_Chris_ I dont care I rather have access to few content than a paid biased bs most of the media outlets seem to be putting out nowadays!
Looks really good , Thank you @hyundai
Nobody is paying 80K for a Hyundai. Rodney King got beat up for being grown driving in a Hyundai.
I would never paid that price for any Korean automobile, Japanese, yes.
wake up, it's 2024. Japan is finished
And this demolishes anything the Japanese have, except for Mazda which did a great job with the CX90!

What a ridiculous car. I want my buttons.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. With that said, the front end of the Genesis GV80 is hideous.
You've lost your mind, if you pay more than $3K, for a Hyundai, any model #HighwayRobbery
I know this must be comedy they tried it though pahahaha 😂
Plenty of people have Genesis and love it😂 get over it
this guy is a crazy hater....
@@pandana9796 Hyundai is a D-level automaker, your vehicle will be worthless, before your financing/lease runs out = DO NOT BUY THESE CARS, just ask the insurance companies, if you really want to know
Koreans are making good cars for sure but Genesis brand doesn’t have class. Get rid of that “wanna be upscale” grill to begin with!
Nazi Mercedez have class and not higher tech leading manufacturers of robots/ships/weapons/phones/chips/softpower leader aka. Korea? It's 2024 wake up and smell the kimchi
