Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Genesis GV80 than in the Nissan Pathfinder. The Nissan Pathfinder will be a hit with tall drivers and their front seat passengers, since it has greater front head- and legroom than the Genesis GV80.

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 Genesis GV80 will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Nissan Pathfinder, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
The Genesis GV80 is about the same width as the Nissan Pathfinder. When looking at overall length, the Genesis GV80 takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Nissan Pathfinder.

Powertrain
With somewhat higher torque, the Genesis GV80 transmits power to its wheels a bit more effectively than the Nissan Pathfinder.

Utility
The Genesis GV80 has less seating than the Nissan Pathfinder, making the Nissan Pathfinder the better choice, if you need to chauffeur many passengers.
