Four G80s are sold in Saudi Arabia and the ladder splits cleanly in two: a pair of four-cylinder rear-drive cars, then a pair with the twin-turbo six. The cabin is the same standard throughout, which is the point of the model. All four come from the second-generation G80, on sale since 2020.
Is a used G80 the better buy?
Less clear-cut here than on most of the range, which is a compliment to the car. A nearly new example generally runs around SAR 170,000 to SAR 215,000, roughly 16% under the new entry price — about SAR 30,000 saved. That is a modest discount by Genesis standards and suggests demand is holding up. Weigh it against a new car's full warranty before choosing, and start with the used G80 listings.
Compare the four-cylinder against the six on a long drive rather than on paper.
How much does the Genesis G80 cost in Saudi Arabia?
The 2.5T Prestige RWD opens at SAR 201,500 with the 2.5 L turbo and 304 bhp, and a Platinum Plus version of the same engine sits above it. The six-cylinder cars follow, ending at the 3.5T Royal AWD at SAR 311,900. The jump between the four and the six is where the money actually goes.
Which G80 trim is the one to buy?
The 2.5T Platinum Plus. It brings the equipment upgrades that suit the price without asking you to pay for the larger engine, and the four-cylinder is well matched to a car that spends most of its life at a steady highway cruise. Move up to the 3.5T only if you want all-wheel drive or the extra refinement of six cylinders.
Genesis G80 or Audi A6?
The G80 is longer, quieter and far better equipped for the money, with rear-seat room the German cannot match and a warranty that outlasts theirs. The Audi A6 feels the more solidly built car and commands better money second-hand, which offsets part of the price gap. The BMW 5 Series is the one to buy if you do the driving yourself.
What does a Genesis G80 cost to run in Saudi Arabia?
Cheaper than the German alternatives on parts and labour, because the drivetrain shares its architecture with Hyundai's high-volume cars rather than being unique to a premium line. Set against that, the authorised network covers fewer locations than the established brands, so establish where you will actually be servicing the car before signing anything.
Is the Genesis G80 a strong holder of value?
It is slightly ahead of the Korean average here, at about 53% after five years against roughly 52%, and 68% against 67% at three — unusual for a large premium saloon. The mileage tells the other half of the story: cars arrive at inspection with a median of around 130,000 km, so these are used properly. Air suspension, brake condition and a complete service record are the things that separate a good one from a cheap one.
