Elegant, Stylish, comfortable, and Affordable

This is my second Genesis. We placed over 180,000 miles on the first and, obviously we enjoyed it enough to return for a second ride. The value was exceptional on the original car. The price has increased on the more recent models, however, in comparison to the other available vehicles in this class, Genesis is still an untouchable bargain. Build quality is good, there is some plastic around the engine bay and to replace the standard engine air filter, you will find some questionable engineering.

Overall, I love it

I’ve had the 2016 Genesis for almost a year. I received it for an anniversary gift from my husband (wife is posting) I’m looking to upgrade to a newer year but no time soon. So far, I haven’t had any problems with it.

The Best of Everything

This car (2016 Hyundai Genesis - 3.8 AWD Ultimate) is the best of everything – luxury, ride quality, quiet, feature rich, efficient, low cost to maintain, reliable, looks good inside and out. This car is loaded with all the stuff you typically expect. Plus things like the heads up display, the cooled seats, and the adaptive cruse control, and the steering assist make this a standout car. Simply nothing better on the market. I came to Genesis from Audi ... while I dig the German makes in general, I will never look back. The Genesis ownership experience is worry free. Every time I get in this car I look forward to the drive, be it across town or across the state. The car is a bit on the heavy side, so it is not for carving up the corners. As a cruiser, you can look all over, but you will find nothing better. Save you time and money and get a Genesis (2015/2016 Hyundai Genesis / 2017-2020 Genesis G80).

Genny

I really enjoy my third Genesis. This particular model and maybe others have had issues with the sunroof according to the group I belong to and others have said it was poorly designed. I'm hoping the rattle girls away soon.

life saver

My 2015 was totaled by a truck that ran a red light. Not my fault, as witnessed by three strangers As soon as I was able to drive, I went back to Liberty and bought the exact same car, safety features and all I truly believe that car saved my life and while I am not looking for a repeat, the peace of mind while driving is worth everything

I love it!!

Love the design, love the smooth, comfortable ride, and love all the accessories. Seats are comfortable, radio has excellent sound, and temperature control is ideal. Will buy another one when it’s time to upgrade.

Genesis is a great Car

What I really like about Genesis is that it has more features that are useful than Lexus, which I previously owned. Yes, Lexus is indeed the Gold Standard to measure car features by, and it is hard to beat that. For the money, Hyundai is hard to beat; the best you can get in it's price class for comfort and utility.

My "Grey" Geni

The car is superb...everything I thought about in a luxury sedan...beautiful car. The design turns heads..ride is tremendous...still don't see a lot of them on the road but those who have bought see the value over Mercedes or BMW...

Best car I had

I am sharing my owner's story of my Genesis. I love the treatment I get from my dealership and Genesis the company. You feel as if you a buying the Genesis experience- and when you go to places - the amazements of people asking me” can I see in your car” you get all the usual cliches great gas mileage great safety and classic look- but the Genesis actually gives you that last part we all want "A DREAM CAR” Genesis...Two lines are us.

Great Car

This is by far the best car I’ve ever driven or owned. Adequate acceleration, smooth ride and it stops on a dime. This car is comfortable to drive but cannot be considered boring. It makes merging into highway traffic easy.

Genesis is a great car!

My 2016 Genesis Ultimate, the predecessor to the G-80, is smooth, wonderfully quiet, and with the V-6 it has more than adequate performance (especially in 'Sport' mode). Really appreciated are the lane keeping assist, emergency braking (and warnings before the brakes are automatically applied), smart cruise control and verbally commanded navigation system and blue tooth hands free telephone (I should say 'hands on the wheel' phone).

I love my Genesis !

This is our second Genesis, an we love the ride. The safety features are so many I can't write them all down. It is a real luxury vehicle inside an out. We can drive for hours an never get tired. Everyone ask us what kind of car is this. It's very beautiful an we tell them to go try one. You will love it...

Great car

Best car I have ever owned. I’ve had the car since it was new. The only problem I’ve had was an electrical problem with the right rear window motor. It was taken care by the dealer where the car was purchased under warranty.

Genesis is a full size luxury car, well worth the money. Jerry’s dealership of genesis iOS top notch. My family has many cars from dayna there, and will probably continue to do so! However we find his Buick dealership less satisfactory not

Outstanding Automobile

I have purchased many vehicles, the Genesis in my opinion is among the best I have owned. The vehicle handles well, it is comfortable, spacious, beautifully designed, and economical. Qualities hard to match by its competition. Highly recommended this vehicle.

LOVE MY GENESIS

I love my car for sure! I will have to say there was sunroof recall, reasons I gave it a 9 and not a 10 that I would have. Other than that, this car gets the looks and questions who makes it when they see the emblem. I just wish that Hyundai had started off with the front and back emblem instead of just the front. Also, should have kept its distance from Hyundai ( even thought I love Hyundai products / 4 Hyundai cars ). This would have brought to the line the same Lexus and other high end cars have. The respect it deserves. The marketing team should have thought that out before hand. All of the 2019's moving forward has both front and back. Smart move finally. The 2020 is a beauty and the SUV is a goal!

Very roomy, nice traveling vehicle. Traveling in this vehicle is a truly great experience. Holds the road good and good on cruising long distance and short distance. Comfortable ride with plenty of power with weight.

2016 Genesis

I love my car. You get all the luxury with all the value. I hate driving with a passion, but I love driving this car. It has a lot of room, the seats are super comfortable, and has probably made me a genesis customer for life.
