Changes for 2017/2018?

[vmi9d3]

Thanks so much for this! I'm currently deciding between a 2016 Hyundai Genesis and a 2017 G80. Feel like making another spreadsheet? One big difference I've found is the ability to use Apple CarPlay. Looks like 2015-2016 can only do it if you have the Ultimate with the larger touchscreen.

I have been looking at 2016s more closely lately myself. I will see if I can add something this weekend. As EdP mentioned Ultimate won't allow CarPlay, unless I pull the trigger on a 2018 I won't go for an Ultimate. CarPlay is a must have for me.
I have found the 2016s to be a little more available (hence more color options) due to them coming off lease, they will also be a CPO at a Hyundai dealer.

Here is an updated spreadsheet with 2016s included. I found most of the info here: https://cars.usnews.com/cars-trucks/hyundai/genesis

and here, borrowed from bubbaG80Sport:

2016 Genesis – Specifications page 9

2017 Genesis - Specifications pages 19 -> 21

2018 Genesis G80 – Specifications pages 23 -> 25

I may have missed a thing or two but only focused on some the features I am looking for. I didn't add some of things like premium leather for Premium or Ultimate package. Enjoy.
