2026 Genesis G80 review

Genesis G80: a sensible pick with a few compromises. Illustrative review

8.1/10 OffLot expert score

The 2026 Genesis G80 is a strong contender in its class. Good trunk for the footprint; comfortable front seats on long trips. Rear headroom is tight for tall passengers and road noise on coarse pavement, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $58,000, it lines up with most direct rivals.

Solid, with a few quirks

Bought it for the a long commute and it has handled everything so far. Fuel economy has been close to the sticker in mixed driving.

Good, not perfect

The fuel economy is the standout. My only gripe is road noise on the highway, which I knew going in.
