2018 Genesis G80 Sport - Back when ordinary cars were pretty awful, all a luxury car needed to be was pretty good. Genesis, Hyundai’s nascent luxury division, is cursed to be trudging up the long hill to luxury legitimacy at a time when ordinary cars are danged nice.
And that includes a lot of danged nice Hyundais being sold right alongside the Genesis vehicles in stores with big Hyundai signs out front.
The new, twin-turbocharged 2018 G80 Sport is the next step up that steep incline.
The G80 is the smaller of Genesis’s two sedans that, if it were a Hyundai (and it isn’t), would fill the slot held by what was formerly known as the Hyundai Genesis sedan between 2009 and 2016. In fact, the G80 is the same car introduced for the 2015 model year as the second-generation Hyundai Genesis sedan. The mostly superficial transmogrification into the G80 took place heading into the 2017 model year.
This would be less confusing if the powers that be had chosen to name their luxury division after a different book in the Old Testament. Deuteronomy was available, and Exodus would’ve been a letter shorter. Leviticus might have been a reach, but even that would have clarified matters.
Genesis’s big challenge here is the Sport part of the G80 Sport equation. The G80 is a sweet-natured car, but it has never been sporty. The G80 Sport is a leap of faith into the sports-sedan unknown.
To breathe the G80 Sport into existence, Genesis swiped the twin-turbocharged 3.3-liter V-6 from the larger G90, mated it up to Hyundai’s eight-speed automatic transmission, and planted both of them under the hood. Easy peasy.
Genesis (and Hyundai, previously) use the same transmission with the G80’s naturally aspirated engines, a 311-hp 3.8-liter V-6 and an optional 420-hp 5.0-liter V-8.
As in the G90, when burning premium fuel the twin-turbo 3.3-liter is rated at 365 horsepower and a thumping 376 lb-ft of consistent torque from a low 1300 rpm to 4500 rpm. So, while the turbo V-6 gives up 55 horses to the V-8, it produces only 7 lb-ft less grunt, hits the torque peak at much lower revs (the V-8 needs 5000 rpm to hit its max), and sustains that torque production over a greater portion of its operating range. Ain’t turbos something?
The ratios in the G80 Sport’s gearbox remain the same as in the 3.8 V-6 and 5.0 V-8 models with fifth at a direct drive and sixth, seventh, and eighth all overdrives. The turbo model also shares a 3.91:1 final-drive ratio with the naturally aspirated V-6 instead of the 3.54:1 ratio used with the V-8. And yes, there’s a manual-shifting mode that can be controlled with paddles located just behind the steering wheel.
