    I drive the 2016 Genesis (G80). It has 48k miles and is 100% flawless at this point. It has the Tech package with nearly all the available features minus heads up, automatic trunk and it has the polished wood grain instead of open pore grain. I get about 19mpg daily and got 29.9 on the one trip we took. I also have a 2020 Santa Fe Limited 2.2T Quartz color with about eight hundred miles on it. My wife and I both like them about equally. The SUV gets about the same mpg and sits higher so it is easier in traffic to see around. The Santa Fe has video camera display for lane changes which is lacking in the Genesis. All in all - German cars better look out! These are great vehicles.

    I've had 3 Hyundai/Kia products over the last 6 yrs (2 Sonata 2.0T's and currently Kia Optima SXT). Had 2 major issues covered under warranty with one (2011). After that, no major problems with powertrains. I'd rather spend 57K for a polar ice G80 sport than anything offered new in the class. Simply because of the predicted and perceived reliability from my experience, and the value. It's sexy as Hell (to me), safe, fast enough, and roomy (I'm 6'3, 250lbs). However, I'm in no need of a car, so I can wait a year to avoid the depreciation hit all cars suffer from when new. It makes money sense. I'm anxious to get one so I can experience the upgrade in space, handling, and ride quality compared to my Optima's bumpy and low sitting ride. Thanks for the reviews Sofyan! I love your format.

    I have a 2015 Hyundai Genesis 3.8. And all though I get most of all the same great qualities as the 2018 G80 sport, there is some outstanding differences. I test drove the Sport this past summer and that 3.3 twin turbo makes a big difference. I thought my car had plenty of power, and I guess it does. Still I was jealous of how the Sport took off like a rocket compared to mine. What I really liked is the subtle design changes they made to the Sport. Not only is it sexier looking, those changes nke it a lot more aggressive looking. I seen so called glimpses of the new G80 and just from that I have to say I find the 2018 model more appealing. Which is good for me as later this year I will be looking to trade my car in. And the G80 sport will be one of the 3 I'm looking at. The other 2 are the G70 and the Stinger.

      How some things change... I have been driving the car for 3 weeks now and it would appear the previous owner screwed up the transmission and caused other issues under the hood. The dealership I purchased from invoked the 2 month / 2000 mile purchase warranty which over rides my factory warranty. I really don't understand that... Instead of fixing the car which looks like over $10k in repairs they are giving me a refund. I have argued this is not what I want to the dealer and to Hyundai/Genesis corporate and gotten no ware. :(

    Awesome review, Sofyan! When I reviewed the G80 Sport a couple months ago I was absolutely astonished by how much it offered as STANDARD EQUIPMENT. Consequently, what you see is pretty much what you get... With the exception of minor options (AWD/RWD or Color Choices). The amount of standard safety technology on the G80 Sport is pretty praiseworthy, as well. By Genesis packaging the G80 Sport is this manner, it makes this vehicle undeniably a pretty solid player in its class.
    Personally, I find the G80 Sport to be the ideal sedan for those looking for sleek styling, a comfortable interior, and "affordable" sporty/luxury attributes.
    Fuel economy is pretty low (due to the absence of any 'Auto Start/Stop System', 'Cylinder Deactivation System' and the overall heavier weight). Believe it or not, the weight difference between the G80 Sport and the G90 with the same 3.3T engine is only about 100lbs!!!
    With all that said, you did a great job displaying the performance and features of the 2018 G80 Sport. From one auto enthusiast to another, keep it up, Sofyan!

    • @Wasabi9111

      DriveAndBeDriven I completely agree with you. Recently test drove to G80 and also the Volvo S 90 T6. I actually preferred to G 80 over the S 90. I thought the S 90 was louder on the highway, the engine noise was loud and rough and the Sensus infotainment was extremely confusing and dangerous to use while driving.
      It’s too bad the g80 sport doesn’t have good lease deals like its competitors.

    Good review (as usual). One criticism. You don't need AWD to put power down (see every RWD car that makes plenty of power including but not limited to all the sedan versions of AMG's, M series, and Hellcat's.
    AWD on this car is for selling to those who want power while still being able to drive in areas with lots of different weather (snow, rain etc...)

The wood is pretty nice already however.

    This may not be worth spending 58kish new (even with big dsicounts) but it would be a fantastic value as a lease return 3 years from now given the depreciation and longer warranty compared to the German competion. You can buy a used fully loaded (~55k MSRP)2016 Genesis 3.8 sedan for less than $35k already now and I think this will also follow the pattern.

    The exterior looks great and the interior is decent, if a bit generic. The thing is, most people (myself included) wouldn’t cross shop it, against the Audi A6, BMW 5 Series or Mercedes E Class. Cross shop it against Acura, Lexus, Cadillac or even Buick, then you’re talking...Congrats on the engagement!

    I really like this car! Sat in one at a recent car show - right next to an E-class, and it compared very nicely (especially on price). One thing I can't get over, however is the switchgear (especially on the steering wheel). It's EXACTLY the same white-text on black plastic as in my girlfriend's 2017 Hyundai Elantra. Really....? C'mon guys...

    G80 Sport for 56k that gets 5.2 secconds from 0-60. Weighs 4500LBS. Lexus GS350 Fsport comparably optioned for 58k that gets 5.6 seconds from 0-60. Weighs 3900LBS. very similar straight line performance, Much better handling from Lexus GS Chassis (Proven by all automotive reviews and articles and benchmarks) and 600LBS lighter. And you get Lexus brand prestige with resale value and reliability. I personally take Lexus anyday

      A 2015 Hyundai Genesis has held about 60% of its value after 3 years where I live. That's about $26000. An Audi a6 based on current prices, and original cost, has held on to 49% of its value. I can buy a 2015 for $27000. So if i'm going to buy a used luxury car, I'll happily take the Genesis, because that Audi will be a maintenance nightmare. Hyundai products are not as bad as they may have been and are now the 3rd largest automaker. Clearly their products have stepped up a bit. **Edit, I had to change my figures a bit, the Audi I was looking at didn't have comparable kms on it. The higher km A6 was $4000 less, so the proper comparison is Audi A6 31k @56%. I would still buy the Genesis used over the Audi.
