Score read
A 70/100 makes this worth comparing, not chasing. The useful split is software and driver-assist score at 100/100 versus range and efficiency score at 37/100. On Reddit, owner satisfaction comes up enough that it's worth verifying before you sign. If the seller cannot show recall completion, price that risk or move on.
Price context
Used examples are running around $44,292. Treat that as a budgeting floor, not a final price; pull a current KBB Fair Purchase or Edmunds True Market Value for this exact trim before negotiating.

- $ Bargain hunter Best TCO, reliability + low depreciation
Gotchas
- Serviceable Recall paperwork has to match the exact VIN.
Mitigation Use NHTSA and the automaker lookup, then require repair records instead of a verbal promise.
- Built in Range is the easy place to overbuy this trim (37/100).
Mitigation Check your commute, winter margin, and fast-charge plan before you assume the EPA number fits your use.
Pre-purchase inspection
- 1 Run the exact VIN through NHTSA and the automaker recall lookup before discussing price.
- 2 Compare the dashboard range estimate with the EPA 282-mile rating after a full charge.
- 3 Confirm how much of the 10-year/100,000-mile battery warranty remains and whether it transfers.
- 4 If road trips matter, run a short DC fast-charge session and watch whether speed tapers normally.
- 5 Map your normal highway route and winter margin against the EPA range before you treat it as a road-trip car.

Source & disclaimer
Dealers make ~$10,940 on the average car loan.
After the price is set, the finance manager runs four plays to rebuild margin. Every buyer without a pre-approval is a target. Here's exactly what they run — and what stops each one.
78% of dealer loans carry a hidden +1.13% markup above what the lender actually charges. You never see it — it's buried in the contract. · CFPB
Dealer must match or beat your lender — they can't add margin invisibly. The markup play is dead on arrival.
Once you answer, they stretch the term to hit your number. Median result: $4K less off the price, 12 more months on the loan. · Industry avg
Financing is done. Only the sale price is on the table — and the dealer knows it.
Back-office F&I profit averages $1,975/vehicle, up 8.5% YoY. These products exist — but dealer markup is 4–10x what you'd pay elsewhere. · Dealership Guy
Dealer GAP runs $500–1K. Your insurer sells the same coverage for $100–250 over 5 years. Now you know.
"Your loan fell through — come re-sign." This pulls your APR up +5% on average. It's legal. It works because you've already driven the car home. · Ctr for Responsible Lending
A lender commitment letter means the deal is final. "Pending dealer approval" doesn't apply. You can't be yo-yo'd.
That's 18 months of your car payment — handed to the dealer's finance department for nothing.
Takes 2 minutes. No obligation to use it — but you'll walk in with all the leverage.
Pre-approval is a soft credit inquiry — no score impact. FICO treats all auto-loan hard pulls within 14 days as one, so you can still shop rates at the dealer.

This is the same issue with the 2023 Electrified G80 Sedan and other Hyundai Group electric vehicles. When using the car in "i-Pedal" (one-pedal driving) mode — the highest brake regen setting — the car can come to a complete stop whenever I lift my foot off the accelerator pedal, without touching the brake. While in this mode, when I fully lift my foot off the accelerator, the rear brake lights illuminate as expected, however, I often slowly reduce pressure on the accelerator pedal to come gently to a stop. I've noticed that it's possible (and often the case) that I can decelerate to a full stop without the brake lights illuminating until I fully release the brake pedal (at the very last moment before I stop). This means that I can be slowing down at a pretty significant rate without any indication to the drivers behind. Conversely, when using the automatic cruise control (that keeps the car a set distance from car ahead), the brake lights seem overly active and flash on and off quite frequently, especially when going down hills (even if there is no deceleration and the car seems to be coasting). Both of these anomalies seem to aggravate other drivers following the car for different reasons, since the vehicle's intent isn't being properly communicated. The lack of expected brake lights when decelerating gently via i-Pedal mode seems potentially dangerous. I would recommend that Hyundai tune their software so that the brake lights illuminate automatically past a set threshold of deceleration/regen braking (above what would be expected if the car were simply coasting), but not requiring the driver to fully lift off the pedal, since at that point, the rate of deceleration is already uncomfortably high for typical driving.

The contact owns a 2024 Genesis G80. The contact stated while driving at undisclosed speeds, the passenger’s side rear corner blind spot sensor intermittently became inoperable. The contact was unaware of any warning lights being illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer to be diagnosed, and it was determined that the radar detector was the cause of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was taken to another local dealer, Genesis of Merrillville, (1000 81st Ave., Suite 100, Merrillville, IN 46410); who determined there were unknown parameters causing the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and referred the contact to the local dealer for assistance. The failure mileage was unknown.

What Owners Are Saying
"What would your finance payments be compare to the lease? 15k is going to impact that payment a bit and the 24 months also. I would think a 36 month would have a lower payment. I was a top Genesis salesperson in my region when I was with the brand, but I've been removed for a while so I can't really speak to the quality of the deal. Someone else here mentioned the structure/other figures involved are important in determining that. Generally 24 month lease payments suck. If you expect to drive that many miles a lease may be the better way to go, but if you'd to own the car for a longer term it's more affordable to buy it than it is to lease it then buy it out. If you're going to drive higher miles than that, I'd buy it not lease it. As for the car itself - my favorite car I've ever owned was my 21 Prestige 3.5T in tasman blue with blue interior. I had a circle plan purchase as an employee and the manufacturer wanted the car on the road so it was a fantastic deal. Only reason I don't have it today is I had the opportunity to take a little more than 10k of equity by selling it and felt irresponsible passing that up. I think I ended up netting out positive on the payments in my time in the car due to used car values being so high during covid. Was it a perfect luxury sedan? It doesn't have as engaging a drive as a BMW 3 series, but I found it much more comfortable than a 5 series and personally enjoyed the drive more too. My other personal favorite competitor would have been an A6/A7 which were fairly more expensive with fewer standard offerings. At that time especially the"
"I own a ‘24 G80 that I am currently selling because of the lack of customer service and consideration. It is a luxury car without a luxury experience. Great if you have no issues. This is my 4th Genesis so I have been a loyal Genesis fan and customer over the years, but out of principle can’t support a company who can’t provide the services they sell when you bought the car. I would stay away personally."
"There's no secret why the G70, along with the G80 and G90, aren't selling. There are very few dealers out there. For example, there are a total of zero in California. Most people in major cities throughout the country are minimally hundreds of miles away from a Genesis dealer. I live in Los Angeles and my closest dealer is in Las Vegas. I'm in the market for a G70 Sport Manual but I can't reasonably buy one."
