Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the back seat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Genesis G80 than the BMW 530, due to its greater head- and legroom. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between the BMW 530 and the Genesis G80 in the front seats.

Convenience
With the BMW 530 you will definitely be making fewer stops at the gas station than with the Genesis G80, due to its larger tank size and better fuel economy.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). When looking only at MSRP, the BMW 530 will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Genesis G80.

Dimensions
The BMW 530 is a little narrower than the Genesis G80, so you'll have an easier time getting in and out of the car in a tight parking spot. When looking at overall length, the BMW 530 takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Genesis G80.

Handling
The BMW 530 has a larger turning radius than the Genesis G80, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The BMW 530 has less horsepower than the Genesis G80, so it will probably be somewhat slower.

Powertrain
With its lower torque, the BMW 530 doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Genesis G80.

Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the BMW 530 and the Genesis G80.
