Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the back seat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Genesis G80 than the BMW i5, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Genesis G80 will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the BMW i5.

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). The BMW i5 is somewhat more expensive than the Genesis G80.

Dimensions
The BMW i5 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 i5 takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Genesis G80.

Handling
The BMW i5 has a larger turning radius than the Genesis G80, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the BMW i5 is somewhat more powerful than the Genesis G80.

Powertrain
With its lower torque, the BMW i5 doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Genesis G80.
