Combine Your Wishes & Needs To Find The Right Genesis For You
Choosing the right Genesis for you is like picking out the right piece of art for your home; there's no wrong choice. It all comes down to your particular needs, desires and tastes. In short, the decision comes down to size. While the new 2018 Genesis G80 and the 2018 Genesis G90 mirror one another in many respects, the higher-priced Genesis G90, a full-size sedan, is larger and packs more power and standard with more technology than the mid-size Genesis G80. But, where bigger doesn't necessarily translate to better, the practical decision comes down to the vehicle needs for your lifestyle. Whichever one you choose find the right one for you at your preferred Genesis dealership in St. Petersburg, Crown Genesis.
While the Genesis G80 and Genesis G90 are both equipped with a V6 engine, long-distance travelers or those needing a bit more bump in power may be better-suited in the Genesis G90.
Consider the differences:
Genesis G80 Mid-Size Luxury Sedans
- 3.8-liter GDI
- 311 horsepower
- 293 pound-feet of torque
- 8-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC® technology
Genesis G90 Full-Size Luxury Sedans
- 3.3-liter Twin-Turbo
- 365 horsepower
- 376 pound-feet of torque
- 8-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC® technology (includes paddle shifters)
Each luxury sedan from the Genesis brand offers three trims:
2018 Genesis G80 (6 configurations):
- 3.8 (rear-wheel drive, all-wheel drive)
- 3.3T Sport (rear-wheel drive, all-wheel drive)
- 5.0 Ultimate (rear-wheel drive, all-wheel drive)
2018 Genesis G90:
- 3.3T Premium all-wheel drive
- 5.0L Ultimate all-wheel drive
- 5.0L Ultimate rear-wheel drive
For city driving, the Genesis G80 balances power, style and handling as well as its German rivals. The G90 is softer and not as tight around corners. While both the Genesis G80 and G90 offer an unparalleled experience in serenity, the G80 hangs its hat on being a relaxed, luxurious and isolating ride, offering a sport model that can get around even around Tampa's busiest traffic areas.
For those looking to leave the city lights in the rear-view mirror, the Genesis G90 Ultimate performs best on the open road. Making that possible is a long wheelbase and an adaptive suspension.

Forward-Thinking Design Defines Genesis G80 And G90
While size remains the standout difference between the Genesis G80 and G90, both offer exquisite detail outside and in. With the new model year, the 2018 Genesis G80 comes with refreshed headlights, a new and lower front grille, updated front and rear fascia's and a new standard 18-inch wheel design. It makes for an athletic exterior appearance. Slightly contrasting is the Genesis G90's more-subtle exterior. A heavier vehicle than the Genesis G80, the Genesis G90 hides its size well with a low-key face up front, scalloped sides and taller windows.
On the inside, the Genesis G90 offers a bit more space, convenient for those longer road trips. While the G80 and G90 both come standard with heated front and rear seats, leather seating surfaces and adjustable front seats, the G90 again steps it up with a 22-way power driver seat with power lumbar, shoulder and bolster adjustment. The front passenger seat is also adjustable with lumbar support.

A World Of Technology Connects You To Your World In A Genesis
Regarded as the nicest luxury car of any in the Hyundai family, the 2018 Genesis G90 comes decked out with premium standard features, including a 12.3-inch touchscreen display for infotainment with standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a 17-speaker Lexicon-branded surround-sound system, tri-zone climate control, wireless charging, rear-seat entertainment system, faux-suede headliner and navigation.
If such an extensive list of luxuries takes a back seat to practicality, the lower-priced Genesis G80 is the way to go. After all, it gives buyers lots of options to add on and customize as desired or needed. Keep in mind, though, the Genesis G80 Sport trim does come standard with a 9.2-inch touchscreen navigation system, wireless charging and a Lexicon Premium Sound System with 17 speakers, QuantumLogic Surround Sound and Clari-Fi music restoration technology.
