Which 2024 Genesis G80 Should I Buy?
MotorDonkey's proprietary vehicle data identifies every significant version of each model so that you can compare and decide. Ordered by price from low to high, here are the versions of the 2024 Genesis G80 that you need to be aware of, along with our expert analysis and recommendations.
1. 2024 Genesis G80 2.5T All-Wheel Drive
- Base Price: $54,400
- MPG Combined: 25
- Drive Type: All-wheel drive
- Engine: 2.5-liter inline-4
- Aspiration: Turbocharged
- Transmission: 8-speed automatic
- Horsepower: 300
- Torque: 311 lb-ft
- 0-60: 5.5 sec
- Weight: 4,112 lbs
- Length: 196.7 in
The base four-cylinder G80 now comes standard with all-wheel drive, but you still get a projected 30 mpg on the highway. Acceleration is quicker than you might expect from a four.
2. 2024 Genesis G80 3.5T All-Wheel Drive
- Base Price: $64,250
- MPG Combined: 19
- Drive Type: All-wheel drive
- Engine: 3.5-liter V6
- Aspiration: Turbocharged
- Transmission: 8-speed automatic
- Horsepower: 375
- Torque: 391 lb-ft
- 0-60: 4.7 sec
- Weight: 4,453 lbs
- Length: 196.7 in
The only disappointment with the V6-powered G80 is its fuel economy, which is more SUV-like than sedan-like. There's great punch here, though — not surprising given that 391 horses are at your disposal — and respectable refinement, too.
