The Genesis GV80 is the car that made the Australian luxury SUV conversation more interesting. A large, well-proportioned SUV from a brand that had spent years establishing credibility in a market that defaults to German names. The GV80 arrived with a compelling design and an equipment list that makes some of its German competitors look like they need to reconsider their pricing.
Simone drives the GV80 across the conditions that reveal what a luxury SUV is actually like to own: highways where interior refinement is the measure, car parks where size asks questions about your reverse camera setup, and family loads that expose whether the boot and interior space are as generous as they appear in the press shots.
The GV80 is the review that settled a lot of conversations about whether Genesis had made the jump from interesting newcomer to genuine alternative. It had. If you are buying in this bracket and you are not at least considering it, you are working harder to justify your choice than you need to.
