Costs & verdict
Everyday costs, plus how reliable and safe it is
While the Genesis G80 undercuts most big-name German rivals on price, that’s only one dimension of costs – it’s also important to factor in ownership bills and what you’re actually getting for your money.
Given that a lot of company car drivers end up in luxury saloons, it’s disappointing that CO2 emissions aren’t lower. The best the G80 can manage is 164g/km (in 2.2 diesel form), so it finds itself in a much higher benefit-in-kind (BIK) tax band than an equivalent BMW 520d.
