2025 GV80 Prestige has ample room for quality control improvement
This is the 2’nd generation of the GV80. The dash board premium speaker has a bad intermittent static crackle. I have to turn the radio off whenever it happens as it will drive you nuts. My guess is a loose speaker wire. It will be a major can of worms to access it without breaking something else inside the dash.
The memory seat controls on the driver side do not work like any other vehicle that I have ever seen. If you set memory one and store it then set memory two, it overides memory one. Genesis’ set up for seat memory is overly complicated and not intuitive.
Although the V6 engine performs well on premium, it gets terrible highway mileage for the size and weight of the car.
The front license plate bracket should be mounted lower, to just above the front sensors instead of higher on the grill.
On the plus side, it is quiet, handles well and is very comfortable. It has a lot of nice safety features such as a camera display coming on when you apply your directional to show anything that is in that lane. Any approaching vehicles from behind will show up on your camera display as red warning lights. Thus far after only a few months of ownership, I give it 3 Stars. If the quality control issue hadn’t risen it would’ve gotten four because of the poor highway mileage. I would love to be able to review the car after having it for a full year not just a few months.
