I'm having trouble picking which vehicle to purchase next I own an Dodge Durango SRT and it burns gas like crazy im looking for something more economical. Im having a tough decision on purchasing 2021 Stinger or Telluride or Genesis G80 I want them with AWD and high power V6 engines.

Tough question. I guess I’d start by asking you how much gas you’re burning today with your Durango, because the V6 is not exactly economical. The new ‘22 model 2.5l turbo 300hp will be. In my Stinger GT2, I do a fair amount of city driving and average around 19mpg.

In terms of fun to drive, any of these options will be an improvement, but the Stinger will be the most enjoyable because it’s the smallest, and it’s designed to be more sporty than the others, without being quite as sporty or stiffly sprung as the G70 would be. From a space perspective, the Telluride is definitely your best bet, and the G80 falls somewhere in between the Stinger and the Telluride, but in my mind it’s the least desirable because it doesn’t have a hatch back so you can’t load much in it. But then again, these are very different cars you’re comparing size wise, so I don’t know if loading furniture or similar things in your car is important to you or not.

Since I dont need the space of the Telluride plus the stealership markups on the SUV thats cut out so its down to the Stinger n G80 which will be a hard choice but for the money part imma say Kia Stinger.
