TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2018 BMW 5-Series expands the sedan's already-excellent lineup to include an efficient plug-in hybrid and an uber-quick V-8.

Plush, safe, and well-equipped, the 2018 Genesis G80 remains a pure luxury sedan, even as rivals get increasingly sporty.

TCC Likes

Useful plug-in hybrid
State-of-the-art tech
Great powertrains

Handsome, both inside and out

Almost all safety equipment standard

TCC Dislikes

Shockingly expensive now
Interior color combos can be busy
Pricey advanced features

Ponderous handling
Twin-turbo V-6, V-8 not very efficient
Limited cargo space
