The 2025 Genesis GV80 Coupe: Who Is This Car For?

An all-new entry to the coupe-like midsize luxury SUV field, the 2025 Genesis GV80 Coupe joins its more conventional GV80 SUV sibling this year, bringing an extra dose of style and sport without compromising much on space. Obviously, if you want maximum cargo room, a coupe-style SUV isn’t what you’re after, but if you’re after a comfortable, well-equipped luxury SUV with sleeker styling and an outstanding warranty, the Genesis GV80 Coupe may be exactly what you’re looking for. Compared to core rivals like the BMW X6 and Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe, the GV80 is similarly priced, with similar power output, and even more standard equipment. While it’s hard to call a vehicle starting in the low $80,000s affordable, the GV80 Coupe certainly makes a case for being a good value for those looking to get the most from their money without compromising quality.

The GV80 Coupe is all-new for 2025, so there’s no real history to it yet, but it is based on the GV80 SUV, which made its debut for the 2021 model year. That SUV has been a striking success, winning the Kelley Blue Book Best Buy Award for midsize luxury SUVs the year it was introduced and retaining the pole position as our top-ranked model in its class. In other words, the GV80 Coupe might be all-new, but it’s building on a very solid and well-regarded base. The GV80 SUV was refreshed alongside the GV80 Coupe’s introduction, meaning the underlying architecture is probably near the mid-point of its lifecycle, implying that a new GV80 SUV and GV80 Coupe might be due in another few years. Some of our favorite features on the new GV80 Coupe include the gorgeous, rich 27-inch OLED display, the optional 48-volt electric supercharger that adds low-end boost with a minimum of fuss, and the built-in launch control for quick acceleration. Like all new Genesis models, the GV80 Coupe also has an outstanding warranty that includes 10 years/100,000-miles for the powertrain.
