2021 Genesis GV80

vs 2021 Audi Q7

The tradition-breaking, first-ever SUV from Genesis, the gorgeous 2021 Genesis GV80, is an elegant model with a big taste for athleticism, decadence and safety. The luxury segment received quite a facelift with its introduction. Experience the first-class atmosphere before you even step inside. Gaze upon available 22-inch wheels, full LED quad headlights and the high-set grille of the GV80 model’s formidable exterior, while inside, you’ll be embraced by a welcoming environment of integrated ambient lighting, metal accents and burled-wood trim. So while many are making the switch to the new face of luxury, others are caught between old-fashioned competitors, like the 2021 Audi Q7. Can’t decide between the two?

2021 IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+

The 2021 Audi Q7 might be a nice car for some, but for the rest of us, the first-ever 2021 Genesis GV80 receives top marks. Your vehicle should do more than just meet the minimum — the GV80 model’s standard 2.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder produces higher mpg ratings and unleashes 300 horsepower. The Q7 on the other hand only produces 248 horsepower with its standard engine. Convenience, too, is a luxury that’s achieved in the optional power reclining, sliding and folding second-row seat with cushion tilt in the GV80, a feature that’s accessible through the infotainment screen. And not only does the GV80 possess a larger standard touchscreen size and provide more available speakers, but it received an IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+ award for 2021. Sorry, Audi.
