Genesis GV80 review: A budget Bentayga!
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Meet the new Genesis GV80!
It’s a posh, luxurious 7-seater that is looking to go toe-to-toe with market leaders such as the Mercedes GLS and Audi SQ7! The question is, can this Korean SUV display the German market leaders?
Well, let’s take a look at what you get for your money. It certainly looks the part from the outside, with a smart split taillight design and roof spoiler around the back, through to a huge grille up front. In fact, we’re pretty sure the Genesis designers borrowed a bit from the Bentley Bentayga… But then again, that’s no bad thing!
The quality continues on the inside, with soft-touch materials throughout the cabin. Premium models such as the one we have here come with wood effect trim as well, which if anything reminds us of the BMW iX! It also comes with a set of digital dials, although the quality isn’t that great.
One area where the GV80 is let down is the choice of engines, where you only have one petrol and one diesel to choose from. The petrol’s a 2.5-litre 4-cylinder turbo that can produce 304hp, so if you’re looking for a bit more power from a 7-seater, you may want to look elsewhere.
The Genesis GV80 comes in at £60,000, rising up to around £78,000 for top-of-the-range models. So what do you think - is it worth it? Stick with Mat and see for yourself!

Hey Mat. As far as I know the digital drivers display on the GV80 is a 3D setup. So the dials should have been floating midair for you and they clearly were not. Instead you saw low res graphics. I reckon it means the previous driver switched the 3D off which would have left you with half the actual display resolution. Cheers:)

I just bought the GV70 advance trim in the same color combination (Cardiff green ! = almost British Racing Green 😂). 19 inch wheels cuts the road noise and 0-60 with same engine circa 5.6 seconds. Not quite so many features as your GV80 and obviously smaller but at $54,000 a great value luxury proposition. Think of the brand Genesis as equivalent to Lexus, Acura and Infinity but as the new kid on the block has to earn its reputation which takes time .. In the USA, the drivetrain warranty is 10 years ! So far I am very happy with the first 1000 miles .

How is the car so far? Any issues?
After owning a GV80, 2022, since April22, I boight it new. Now its more than a year, driven 26k km. This is the best Bentley to own, maintainance is $zero until 100k km, the car drives wow all time, no noice, full isolation from outside, agressive design. I used to own a Bentley bentayga 2018 also brand new, but now i confirm, Genesis is way better for cost of ownership and reliability for the next 5-10 yrs. Well done Genesis❤
The way he really kept the guy in the front seat crushed had me rolling
In the UK it's only maybe those options for engine but in the U.S. we do get 6 Cyl engine which probably has a higher towing capacity too
I live in Korea, and I own 5 series and GV80. GV80 is very good, luxury, quiet car!
Would have bought one on our last new car purchase 12 months ago - great car, couldn’t get what we wanted before EOFY! Funnily enough, our neighbour bought one at the same time (complete coincidence) and they live theirs… The only 7 seater we could find on short notice was the Kodiaq RS, so went that way with all the options, a tune and money leftover. Happy enough, but the Genesis was a standout!
Saw these in Abu Dhabi and they are really gorgeous and high quality. Really puts some of the other luxury brands to shame on a value for money perspective.

Here in Australia, the price was absolutely beatable for me, by the Audi Q7, to get the stuff I wanted. This is partly because Audi discount, whereas Genesis do not.
What a stunning looking car, the interior is drop dead gorgeous, very well done Genesis 👏👍😀
In North America there is a 3.5 turbo version. It's fast and can tow quite a lot. That is the version I'd consider.
Seen the family in one of those driving past Chop House East Market Street in Edinburgh last week, looks massive and amazing.
I love separate HVAC controls and rear seat HVAC controls, and thankfully we get the 3.5 Turbo in Australia. I don't think the 4cyl is a bad option at all, but I would probably go the TD or 3.5T.

This is a fantastic large SUV , very good for their first try as well. Sat in one at Goodwood, extremely impressed with the interior compared to its rivals .

I have just test driven the GV-70 and its awesome, super quality for much lower price. I used to own a Porsche Macan Turbo that was nearly twice the price of the Genesis i test drove and didn't feel any less comfortable driving the car itself. The one i test drove was £45,000 and had lots of boys toys, and if it were to come to Cyprus i would definitely buy one, but i'm told its pretty unlikely that it is going to arrive within the next 5 years. Very sad as i think it would sell very very well in Cyprus.

I bought the GV80 in April 2022 and couldn't be happier. In Canada, my top-end Prestige model comes with a 3.5L Twin Turbo V6, so loads of power (0-60 in 5.4s), and it feels great to drive. The bad resolution on the speedo might be because it's actually 3D. The only negative about this car is the fuel economy, which is horrendous due to that twin turbo. But otherwise, it has more luxury and bells and whistles than any other competitor.

I think the reason for wired CarPlay & Android Auto projection is that it gives more stable connection and better system performance than the ones with wireless solution. Then again, Hyundai/Genesis/Kia is still working on it. They want to make things work perfectly I guess… As for the car, it is beautiful to look at inside out.

Yeah.. for 1/3 the price.. the drive is worth it
I don't think the GV80 was a copy of the Bentayga specifically, but Genesis sedans have copied design elements from Bentley from the beginning...and then they hired hired Bentley's head exterior designer (who is Korean) way back in 2016. I think the GV80 actually has fewer Bentley references they some of their other cars.
Matt how is your alcantara headlining addiction?still going strong for the fix hé.🤣😂👌🏼👍🏽👊🏽LOVE your vids.MUCH SUPPORT FROM ROTTERDAM
Mat, please review Hyundai Elantra N someday. It’s one of the greatest fun cars Hyundai N has produced.
I'd have this over any German SUV. I've seen these in the metal and the build and feel of these is fantastic. Also for me you don't see them everywhere which is a big thing. This green colour is amazing in real life and there really is a nod to Bentley with that grille and the Bentayga-esque haunches
its beautiful
In America there is a 3.3L Twin Turbo engine option.
The way that the Hyundai group went from the worst top gear award into the speed of the murcielago is just insane in under 20 years.
Genesis is the new Lexus. Reliable, quiet, super comfortable and quite luxurious at a modest discount to established luxury brands. Styling is attractive but not wacky (like Lexus today). Recently had a G80 sedan for a few weeks and was impressed by materials, attention to detail, quiet ride and tech. I would definitely buy a G90 and am waiting for GV90 SUV, which is coming soon.

Perfect design.
Can we all stop and respect matt for shooting a video under falling snow ?
In the US we get a V6 turbo option without about 360hp. A good tube could probably get it up to 400hp
The Genesis is a very nice suv 🚙 but Let’s be honest no one is cross shopping it with a Bentley Bentayga 😂

I absolutely love this car, shame we are hamstrung in this country regarding engine choices.
Imagine the marketing team after that accident
