Hi Guest
Genesis is Hyundai's dedicated luxury marque and one of the most compelling value propositions in the Saudi luxury car market — offering specification levels, interior quality, and driving dynamics that rival European premium brands at prices that sit meaningfully below the equivalent BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Lexus models. The KSA lineup stretches from SAR 193,451 for the entry sports sedan to SAR 502,000 for the supercharged G90 flagship, with five models spanning compact sport sedans to full-size luxury SUVs.
Genesis vehicles in Saudi Arabia are distributed through the Hyundai Arabia network, with showrooms operating in Riyadh, Jeddah, and other major cities. The brand entered the Saudi market with a focus on the Genesis Studio retail concept and complements its showroom presence with an at-home delivery and service model.
The Saudi Genesis lineup runs from SAR 193,451 to SAR 502,000 across two segments. The sedan range begins with the G70, the rear-wheel-drive compact sports saloon that sets the entry point for the brand. The G80 covers the executive saloon class with both rear- and all-wheel-drive configurations. The G90 tops the range as the full-size luxury flagship, available in a supercharged 3.5T SC variant that positions it against the long-wheelbase S-Class and Lexus LS. On the SUV side, the GV70 is the compact luxury offering, and the GV80 — available up to a 3.5T Coupe variant — rounds out the range in the midsize premium segment. As with the UAE, the standard five-year unlimited-kilometre warranty and complimentary service package represent a tangible ownership advantage over most European alternatives.
How much does a new Genesis cost in Saudi Arabia?
SAR 193,451 to SAR 502,000 across the 2026 range. The important comparison is not within the range but against it: the equivalent German saloon or SUV usually starts higher and then needs options to reach the specification a Genesis has as standard. That gap is the brand's entire commercial case here.
Which Genesis models are sold in Saudi Arabia?
5 model lines — three saloons and two SUVs. The G70 is the compact executive car, the G80 the mid-size and the G90 the flagship. On the SUV side the GV70 and the seven-seat GV80 take the mid-size and full-size positions.Genesis G90 or BMW 7 Series?
The G90 offers a rear cabin, a level of quietness and a standard equipment list that a 7 Series only reaches with a substantial options spend, and it costs considerably less to begin with. The BMW is better resolved to drive and holds its money far more reliably. On a car kept for three years the German usually wins; kept for eight, the Genesis does.
What is a Genesis like to own in Saudi Arabia?
Straightforward on the mechanical side, since the engines and platforms come from Hyundai's high-volume architecture rather than from a low-production premium line. The real consideration is coverage: the authorised network is thinner than the German brands operate, so confirm your nearest service point before buying, particularly if you are outside the largest cities.
Is a used Genesis the better buy?
Very often. The same weaker resale that costs a new buyer works hard in a used buyer's favour, and a two or three-year-old Genesis undercuts an equivalent German by a wide margin while carrying more equipment. Check that servicing stayed within the authorised network and read the report on the individual car — start with the used Genesis listings.
