First Drive Review of the 2025 Genesis G80: Timeless Class and Luxury

A prevalent trend in the luxury car market has historically favored performance over comfort, with brands like BMW and Audi setting the tone. However, there has been a shift towards more traditional, comfort-focused luxury cars, and Genesis is leading the charge with its 2025 G80 model. This car offers a sublime driving experience that prioritizes comfort without sacrificing performance.

The 2025 G80 features minimal exterior changes, with updates to the bumpers, headlights, and trim distinguishing the Sport models. The most significant update lies inside the cabin, where a 27-inch OLED screen replaces the previous instrument cluster and infotainment display. This new technology enhances the overall driving experience and offers a more modern interior design.

Driving the top-spec 3.5T Sport Prestige model reveals impressive performance, with a 3.5-liter turbo V6 engine delivering 375 horsepower and 391 pound-feet of torque. All models now come standard with all-wheel drive, and V6-equipped G80s feature adaptive suspension for a smooth ride. The Sport+ drive mode offers enhanced driving dynamics, but the G80 truly shines as a comfortable cruiser on long highway drives.

While the G80 performs admirably on country roads, the Sport+ mode may feel out of place for those seeking a more relaxed driving experience. The interior of the G80 is luxurious and well-appointed, with the Sport Prestige trim featuring Nappa leather, faux suede, and carbon fiber accents. The overall design of the cabin exudes elegance and tranquility, making it a serene space for drivers and passengers alike.

In conclusion, the Genesis G80 is a classic luxury sedan that excels in comfort and refinement. For those looking for a sophisticated driving experience, the G80 is a solid choice. Opting for a trim other than the 3.5 Sport Prestige may offer a more balanced driving experience and better value for the money. Enjoy the luxury and comfort of the Genesis G80 without the temptation to push it beyond its intended capabilities.
