The interior of the GV80 is a welcoming, spacious place although headroom is not its high point (pun intended). Our tester came with the third row but without the captain’s chair, making space for eight occupants, albeit three cramped ones in the third row. The materials and build quality inside are excellent, and the Bentley-like styling continues here, becoming blatant when you squint and look at the steering wheel.
The interior could possibly be better ergonomically, and we found it odd that the dial for gear selection and the dial for controlling infotainment are next to each other. It feels like nit-picking, but the door pockets are too small for drink bottles, which is a misstep in a modern car. On the other hand, the tri-zone climate control system is one of the easiest to use we’ve come across recently.
When it comes to cargo space, the loading height is low, the liftgate opens wide, and there’s some underfloor storage to use, which makes it very practical.
