Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Iconic exterior design
Luxurious interior
Powerful engines
Commendable off-roading capabilities

Cons
Hard to get in and out
Not as much cargo space as expected
Unavailable with latest infotainment tech
Clumsy handling on pavement

By: 
edmunds.com

Pros
A box-shaped rocket ship,
boosted performance doesn't compromise off-road prowess,
a millionaire's Jeep.

Cons
Boxy shape makes it overly noisy on the highway,
cornering is not a strong suit, high cost makes scratching it more concerning.

With a sumptuously appointed and whisper-quiet cabin, the 2021 GV80 is exactly the flagship SUV the Genesis brand needs to be taken seriously by American consumers.

Pros
Lovely interior ambience,
standard high-tech features,
agile handling.

Cons
Cramped third-row passenger space,
no diesel engine for the U.S.,
heavily weighted steering feel.

Genesis' first SUV, the 2021 GV80, launches on a new platform shared with the new 2021 G80 midsize sedan. Behind the GV80's polarizing mug are new engines that put the power down with RWD or AWD.

Pros
Opulent interior
Comfortable ride
Generous standard equipment

Cons
Cramped optional third row
