Genesis G80

Generations: what actually changed between the three bodies of data

1 generation (2017-03-01 to 2020-02-29) is a Sedan with 7 versions, tank 77 l, and the only Euro 5 cars. Every engine is Gasoline, Front, longitudinal, Direct injection (direct), Automatic, 8 gears. Ground clearance is measured: 150 mm on both 2.0 AT cars, 135 mm on 3.3 AT RWD, 3.8 AT RWD and 5.0 AT, 130 mm on 3.3 AT AWD and 3.8 AT AWD.

1 generation (2017-03-01 to 2020-02-29) is a Sedan with 7 versions, tank 77 l, and the only Euro 5 cars. Every engine is Gasoline, Front, longitudinal, Direct injection (direct), Automatic, 8 gears. Ground clearance is measured: 150 mm on both 2.0 AT cars, 135 mm on 3.3 AT RWD, 3.8 AT RWD and 5.0 AT, 130 mm on 3.3 AT AWD and 3.8 AT AWD. This is the only generation with a 4-cylinder at 197 hp, a 5.038 l 8-cylinder, and 92 fuel.

2 generation (2020-03-01 to 2024-01-31) is a Sedan with 7 versions. Tank drops by 12 l to 65 l on every fuel car. The 197/245 hp 2.0 AT, the 315 hp 3.8 AT and the 426 hp 5.0 AT are gone. In their place: 2.5 T-GDi (304 hp, Inline 4, Turbo), 3.5 V6 T-GDi (380 hp, V-shaped 6, Turbo), 2.2 e-VGT (210 hp, Diesel, Inline 4, Turbo) in RWD and AWD, and from 2021-02-01 the 87.2 kWh Electro AWD. Eco class, where measured, is Euro 6. Ground clearance is not measured on any 2 generation version.

2 generation, restyling 1 (from 2023-12-01, stop not measured) is a Sedan Long with 5 versions. Diesel 2.2 e-VGT is not in this list. Gasoline 2.5 T-GDi and 3.5 V6 T-GDi remain; 87.2 kWh returns from 2024-07-01 with Automatic 1 gear (gears on the earlier Electro are not measured). Body type is the change you can name from the data; length in millimetres is not measured.

Engine options and specs (every named version)

Same names, different cars: two 1 generation 2.0 AT share 353 Nm and 8.6 s to 100 km/h but 197 vs 245 hp and 227 vs 237 km/h. Two 1 generation 3.3 AT share 370 hp; AWD is 2165 kg and 6.2 s / 240 km/h, RWD is 2050 kg with 0–100 and top speed not measured. Two restyling 3.5 V6 T-GDi are both RWD 380 hp; they differ by kerb mass 1785 kg vs 1890 kg (105 kg). Two 2 generation 2.2 e-VGT share 210 hp, 441 Nm, 147 g/km CO2 and 1895 kg; only drive differs (RWD vs AWD).

Horsepower per litre (cm³ / 1000): 2.0 AT 245 hp = 122.6 hp/l; 2.5 T-GDi = 121.7; 3.3 AT = 110.7; 3.5 V6 T-GDi = 109.5; 2.0 AT 197 hp = 98.6; 2.2 e-VGT = 97.6; 5.0 AT = 84.6; 3.8 AT = 83.4. The 245 hp four and the later 304 hp four sit at the top of that list; the largest naturally aspirated engines sit at the bottom.

Performance, mpg and 0–100: measured vs not measured

Timed 0–100 km/h exists on only these rows: both 2.0 AT 8.6 s; 3.3 AT AWD 6.2 s; 2 generation 2.5 T-GDi RWD 6.0 s; restyling 2.5 T-GDi RWD and AWD 6.0 s; restyling 3.5 V6 T-GDi 1785 kg and 1890 kg 6.0 s; 2 generation 87.2 kWh 4.9 s. Not measured: 3.3 AT RWD, both 3.8 AT, 5.0 AT, 2 generation 2.5 T-GDi AWD, both 2 generation 3.5 V6 T-GDi, both 2.2 e-VGT, restyling 87.2 kWh.

Top speed measured: 2.0 AT 197 hp 227 km/h; 2.0 AT 245 hp 237 km/h (+10 km/h for +48 hp, same 353 Nm); 3.3 AT AWD 240 km/h; 2 generation 2.5 T-GDi RWD 240 km/h; restyling 2.5 T-GDi and 3.5 V6 T-GDi 240 km/h. The Electro top speed is not measured.

The 48 hp gap between the two 2.0 AT cars does not change 0–100 km/h (both 8.6 s) and does not change mixed use (both 9.2 l/100 km). It only shows in peak power at 6000 rpm and in the 10 km/h top-speed gap. Mass is the same 2015 kg, so the 197 hp car is 10.23 kg/hp and the 245 hp car is 8.22 kg/hp.

Fuel use, where measured: 2.0 AT city 12.2 / highway 7.5 / mixed 9.2; 3.3 AT AWD 16.9 / 8.7 / 11.7; 3.3 AT RWD 13.8 / 9.4 / 11.8 (city 3.1 l/100 km less than AWD, mixed 0.1 more); 3.8 AT RWD 13.1 / 8.4 / 10.7; 3.8 AT AWD 14.7 / 9.4 / 12.4 (AWD costs 1.7 mixed); 5.0 AT 15.7 / 10.2 / 13.1; 2 generation 2.5 T-GDi AWD mixed 10.1 (city and highway not measured); 2.5 T-GDi RWD 9.2 / 12.8 / 10.6 (highway figure is higher than city in this row); restyling 2.5 T-GDi RWD repeats 9.2 / 12.8 / 10.6. Mixed not measured: both 2 generation 3.5 V6 T-GDi, both 2.2 e-VGT, restyling 3.5 V6 T-GDi, restyling 2.5 T-GDi AWD, both 87.2 kWh.

CO2: 2.0 AT 197 hp 213 g/km; 2.0 AT 245 hp not measured. 2 generation 2.5 T-GDi AWD 167; 2.5 T-GDi RWD 157; 3.5 V6 T-GDi 187; 2.2 e-VGT 147; 87.2 kWh 0. Restyling repeats 187 / 157 / 167 / 0 on the matching names. 1 generation six- and eight-cylinder CO2 is not measured.

Dimensions, weight and tank: what AWD and generation cost in kilograms

Kerb mass range in the file: 1785 kg (2 generation 3.5 V6 T-GDi RWD and 2.5 T-GDi RWD; restyling 3.5 V6 T-GDi 1785 kg and 2.5 T-GDi RWD) up to 2265 kg (2 generation 87.2 kWh) and 2165 kg (1 generation 3.3 AT AWD). Restyling 87.2 kWh kerb is not measured.

AWD adder, same engine: 3.3 AT +115 kg (2165 − 2050); 3.8 AT +74 kg (2020 − 1946); 2 generation 3.5 V6 T-GDi +105 kg (1890 − 1785); 2.5 T-GDi +70 kg (1855 − 1785). 2.2 e-VGT RWD and AWD are both 1895 kg (AWD mass adder 0 in this file). Gross mass is measured only on 1 generation 2.0 AT (2520 kg), 3.3 AT AWD (2580) and 3.3 AT RWD (2490). 2 generation 2.5 T-GDi RWD lists gross 1785 kg, equal to kerb; other gross figures are not measured.

kg per hp (kerb / hp): 5.0 AT 4.84; 2 generation 3.5 V6 T-GDi RWD 4.70; that AWD 4.97; 3.3 AT RWD 5.54; 3.3 AT AWD 5.85; 2.5 T-GDi RWD 5.87; 2.5 T-GDi AWD 6.10; 3.8 AT RWD 6.18; 3.8 AT AWD 6.41; 87.2 kWh 6.12; 2.0 AT 245 hp 8.22; 2.2 e-VGT 9.02; 2.0 AT 197 hp 10.23.

Tank: 77 l on every 1 generation version, 65 l on every later fuel version, not measured on 87.2 kWh. Wheels measured only in 1 generation: 2.0 AT 225/55 R17 and 245/45 R18; 3.3 AT and 5.0 AT 245/40 R19 and 275/35 R19; 3.8 AT wheels not measured. Later generations: wheels not measured. Ground clearance after 2020-02-29: not measured.

Which version to choose

If 0–100 km/h is the decision: 2 generation 87.2 kWh (4.9 s, 370 hp, 350 Nm, AWD, 2265 kg, CO2 0). It is 1.3 s quicker than the fastest timed Gasoline 1 generation car (3.3 AT AWD, 6.2 s) and 1.1 s quicker than 2.5 T-GDi RWD (6.0 s). It is also 480 kg heavier than that 2.5 T-GDi RWD (2265 − 1785). Restyling 87.2 kWh is the same 370 hp / 350 Nm / AWD / Electro / CO2 0, but 0–100 km/h, kerb and eco class are not measured.

If you want the smallest Gasoline four with a timed 6.0 s: 2.5 T-GDi RWD in 2 generation or restyling 1 (304 hp, 422 Nm at 1650 rpm, 2497 cm³, 1785 kg, 240 km/h, mixed 10.6, CO2 157). Versus 1 generation 2.0 AT 245 hp: +59 hp, −230 kg, −2.6 s (6.0 vs 8.6), −56 g/km CO2 where the 197 hp 2.0 AT is the only 2.0 with CO2 (213). Versus 2.5 T-GDi AWD: RWD is 70 kg lighter; AWD mixed is 10.1 on 2 generation (0.5 less than RWD’s 10.6) and 167 g/km CO2. Restyling 2.5 T-GDi AWD mixed use is not measured; 0–100 km/h is measured at 6.0 s, same as RWD.

If you want V-shaped 6 Turbo and the lightest kerb: 2 generation 3.5 V6 T-GDi RWD (380 hp, 530 Nm from 1300 rpm, 1785 kg). Versus 1 generation 3.3 AT RWD: +10 hp, +20 Nm, +128 cm³, −265 kg. Versus 3.3 AT AWD: +10 hp, −380 kg, and 0–100 km/h 6.0 s on restyling 3.5 V6 T-GDi vs 6.2 s on 3.3 AT AWD. 2 generation 3.5 V6 T-GDi 0–100 km/h is not measured on either drive. Mixed fuel on all 3.5 V6 T-GDi rows is not measured; CO2 is 187 vs 213 on 2.0 AT 197 hp. Restyling lists two RWD 3.5 V6 T-GDi at 1785 kg and 1890 kg; both 6.0 s / 240 km/h — buy on mass if that 105 kg gap matters.

If you need Diesel: only 2 generation 2.2 e-VGT (210 hp at 3800 rpm, 441 Nm at 1750 rpm, 2151 cm³, 1895 kg, CO2 147 — the lowest CO2 among fuel cars). 0–100 km/h, top speed and l/100 km are not measured. RWD and AWD do not differ in the measured mass or CO2. Peak hp is 10 above 2.0 AT 197 hp and 35 below 2.0 AT 245 hp, but torque is 88 Nm above either 2.0 AT. Not offered in restyling 1.

If you need 92 fuel and no Turbo: 1 generation 3.8 AT RWD (315 hp, 397 Nm at 5000 rpm, 3778 cm³, compression 11.5, 96 × 87, 1946 kg, mixed 10.7) or 5.0 AT (426 hp, 519 Nm at 5000 rpm, 5038 cm³, compression 11.8, 96 × 87, 2060 kg, mixed 13.1). 5.0 AT is +111 hp and +122 Nm versus 3.8 AT RWD, +114 kg, +2.4 mixed l/100 km. 0–100 km/h is not measured on either. 3.8 AT AWD is the same 315 hp with +74 kg and mixed 12.4. These engines do not appear in 2 generation.

If you need maximum measured ground clearance: 2.0 AT at 150 mm. The 1 generation six-cylinders sit 15–20 mm lower (135 or 130 mm). After 2020-03-01 clearance is not measured.

If you need the 77 l tank: only 1 generation. Later cars are 65 l, a 12 l cut. Combined with mixed 9.2 on 2.0 AT, that is the 1 generation four; mixed 10.6 on 2.5 T-GDi RWD is the later four.

If you need Euro 6 or CO2 0: 2 generation and restyling 1, not 1 generation (Euro 5 on 2.0 AT; eco class not measured on 1 generation six- and eight-cylinders).

Problems and reliability are not in this dataset. Interior millimetres are not measured. Oil capacity is not measured. Magma is not a version name here.

Short map: Electro timed sprint → 2 generation 87.2 kWh. Gasoline 6.0 s and 157 g/km → 2.5 T-GDi RWD. Lightest 380 hp → 3.5 V6 T-GDi RWD 1785 kg. Diesel 147 g/km → 2.2 e-VGT. 92 fuel V-shaped 8 → 5.0 AT. 150 mm clearance and 77 l tank → 2.0 AT. AWD on the later four costs 70 kg versus RWD and, on 2 generation, 10 g/km more CO2 (167 vs 157).
