2017-2020 Genesis G80 (1st gen)

The first-generation G80 is the used-luxury sleeper of this list: a genuinely premium, rear-drive sedan with a V6 or twin-turbo V8 that has depreciated far more steeply than a comparable German rival, putting near-flagship comfort within reach of a midsize-sedan budget.

Read the product overview

It is for the buyer who wants leather, road isolation, and presence without the running costs and reputation-tax of a used 5 Series or E-Class. The risk is the same one that drives the bargain: Genesis is a younger brand, so resale stays weak and depreciation continues, meaning you should buy to keep, not to flip. Service is competitive and the original warranty was long, so a 2018-2020 example with records left on the powertrain coverage is the smart target.

How we assess prices

We use in-stock offers checked within 72 hours. Scores compare the current offer with that retailer’s observations from the last 90 days, requiring at least 14 observed days and a price from about 30 days ago. Suspect records withhold the score. Retailer conditions and prices can change.
