What should I look for when buying a used Genesis G80?

Across all model years, accident-free inventory is solid at 75.4% — always verify the vehicle history report.

Older model years carry meaningfully higher accident rates, so always verify the vehicle history report on pre-2021 models.

Key things to evaluate:

• Safety package: Highway Driving Assist, which combines adaptive cruise control, lane-centering assist, and lane-change assist technologies.
• Infotainment: a 27-inch OLED display that houses the digital instrumentation panel and infotainment touchscreen, plus wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
• Fuel efficiency: According to the EPA, the 3.5T should average 18 mpg in combined driving, which is not impressive. However, on our relatively flat Southern California fuel-economy observation route, which has a 50:50 mix of city and highway driving, the test car averaged 22.8 mpg. Later, when driven with more enthusiasm on our mountainous evaluation loop, the G80 3.5T returned 20.6 mpg, with an 18.7 mpg result for the city portion. That was a pleasant surprise considering the four-cylinder G80 2.5T is rated at 23 mpg combined.

Which Genesis G80 trim should I buy?

The 2026 Genesis G80 offers these trims:

• base: The 2.5T base trim gives you the turbocharged four-cylinder engine and the core G80 luxury-sedan experience at the lowest entry point.
• Advanced: The 2.5T Advanced trim builds on the base setup for shoppers who want a more equipped version of the four-cylinder model.
• Sport Prestige: The 2.5T Sport Prestige adds a more upscale specification, and it is also one of the trims available with the twin-turbo V6.
• Prestige Black: The 3.5T Prestige Black brings the twin-turbo V6 in a higher-spec package for buyers who want the most exclusive-feeling version in the lineup.

What Genesis G80 do most buyers choose?

The Genesis G80 years with the most listings are 2018, 2025, and 2019.

Higher-volume years tend to be popular because they give you more inventory to compare, more pricing spread to work with, and a better chance of finding the right color, mileage, and equipment mix.

What is the Genesis G80's resale value?

Most model years are moving lower year over year, which creates better opportunities for used buyers. The sharpest drops are concentrated in the newer years, while a few older and mid-cycle examples are changing more slowly. One model year is moving up, showing that demand can still support certain versions even as the broader lineup softens.

The 2020, 2021, and 2023 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
