Out of all fairness to Genesis, our 2018 G80 test vehicle shows 11,000 miles on the odometer. It’s been driven. And frankly, this review could be titled “Used Genesis G80 holds up well under abuse,” knowing that this ultimate sport sedan has been beaten and abused by the press corp.
2018 Genesis G80 AWD 3.3 T Sport lives up to the performance hype and more. I’m one of those automotive review guys that treats his loaner as if he owns it; not so much for my compadres. Hand a young journalist the key fob to a high performance car or light truck of any variant, and most likely, the subject will be treated with less than Kid gloves. Such is the case with our 2018 Genesis G80 Sport AWD-- abused, but nonetheless, remains as “tight” as new.
Equipped with Hyundai’s best rated, high output twin turbocharged V6 gasoline engine, the 365 Horsepower 3.3 L GDI twin turbocharged V6 injects a bit of lightning beneath the hood of G80 Sport, and achieves Zero to 60 MPH sprint speeds of 5 seconds -- enough “sport” to get any driver into trouble with Johnny Law. However, for those of you looking for exceptional fuel economy from your next premium sedan, read no further.
Almost Perfect 2018 Genesis G80 AWD 3.3T Sport Low in Fuel Economy
