Florida law firm launches class-action suit against the Genesis GV80 The lawsuit alleges the luxury SUV has "dangerous defects" in its steering A Florida law firm specializing in consumer advocacy has filed a federal class-action lawsuit against Hyundai, claiming that the Genesis GV80 sport-utility is unsafe. Corwin Law, based in Boca Raton, filed the lawsuit on behalf of owners and lessees of the GV80, which launched as an all-new model for 2021. The lawsuit claims the automaker is “promoting the GV80 luxury SUV, despite being aware of dangerous defects affecting the vehicle’s driveability that are documented in Korean news media and current customer message boards.”
This seemed like a very harsh review. There was no need to bring up Hyundai so much, you don't bring up Volkswagen in Audi reviews as much, and all those mentions of copying was unfair. How are Genesis going to grow when they given such a battering from the press. This seems like an excellent car, especially given the extra hard review it was put through
It’s pure snobbery. Toyota and Honda started out making cheap compacts and now they are the paragons of reliability. Give Genesis a few more years and more stellar products and this talk will lessen.
How could this brand do well in the UK when the reviewers themeselves are badge-snobs and are relaying their negative predispositions and prejudices in their reviews?
Absolutely spot on Meni….. I mean the only people these days that seem to be buying X5s are the Police! But was saying rivals such as Audi/BMW - sorry the minute you think large luxury SUVs you think Range Rover. There’s such a snobbery amongst car reviewers surrounding German brands it’s quite astonishing - well the notable exception of Opel of course - I mean the fact that if you join the e-mail list for What Car you find its sponsored by guess what - a German car brand!
This car literally saved Tiger Woods life, he went off the road at 90 mph, rolled a few times and then hit a tree and all he got was some bruises and a broken leg. Not only is the GV80 better looking but it's also safer than its competitors... and cheaper.
@@smartkid1201 and that's why the guy is so hard on them make me more interested to know more. but yeah it would be bad to not indicate all the copying .... because it's so blatantly obvious that not saying it would be an insult to the intelligence of the audience.
Owning my Genesis for the last 5 years has been an absolute pleasure, and look forward to testing a G80 EV. Don't expect an impartial view from the British press. They're not interested unless it's an overpriced German car. I look on TH-cam for professional, genuine video reviews, mostly from the US, and I haven't seen a bad one yet for Genesis.
What British and American people generally look for in a luxury car are quite different. American cars aren't generally popular here and are seen as cheap and tacky. This car looks quite American in appearance. Fact is in Britain we like German cars.
As a previous owner of a Genesis G80 and BMW 535 in USA I think that genesis is a more reliable car by far. Less time at a dealer and cheaper to fix( the warranty could be extended in US to 7 years/100k miles bumper to bumper).
Tesla? A premium brand? You've got to be kidding me. Sure they're at the forefront in terms of electric car tech, but premium is not a word I would associate with Tesla!!!
Great looking car inside and out, personally I prefer interiors like this with clean lines and balance of digital displays and buttons to press. The only thing that seems slightly old fashioned is the lack on any hybrid/EV tech. Once that is sorted out, I think it will do well.
Wow...this genesis looks good. Being a hyundai, will definitely be much reliable compared to beemer/audi/merc....just like lexus, which are very reliable being a toyota....bulletproof!
Give Genesis a chance, it's got much better build quality than a Tesla and i'm sure the buying and aftersales experience will blow BMW or Audi out of the water.
Another British review!no mistakes about that. From hundreds reviews of this car this is the only review that makes up defects where they don’t exist! Obviously is not a Bentley or a q7 or a x5 but compare the prices! And about quality is way better then a x5 or a gle I had both and after I tried the genesis I have no doubt about it. Even the road recognition for the suspension is exceptional against what this reviewer stated!
This is going to be a great car and a great sell for Genesis I have no doubt, but the Review seems too biased towards the Germanys. If I had the money I'd definitely pick this SUV over the rivals because its stands out so much from the rest of the well known competitors and brands. I hope they bring this to Ireland.
Just walked past this car in Westfield and it is a truly luxurious SUV. Leather, real wood and chrome everywhere. This video doesn’t do the car any justice at all.
So nice to see this brand coming to the UK, I thought it wasn't and was only gona be everywhere else. Hyundai's premium brand looks amazing. I hope it does well. Better than German rivals I think. Although I would go for a saloon.
I think the center of the first row also has a middle airbag that deploys. So that must've further secured Tiger Woods even more during the roll over. Always wear seatbelts.
looks so much cooler than mainstream german brands.. Sure people are badgesnobs, but that is just their slave insecure mentality, and I wouldn't care what people think. Its a solid looking, solid built car. Im still shocked at this day and age, people still think a certain car makes them superior, or feel cooler... Its beyond sad...
Badge snobs indeed. Even today, some people just would not want to be seen in a Skoda. And Skoda's cars are as good as anyone elses at the price they sell at... The new Octavia looks as good/stylish as a BMW 3 series inside. And probably a tad better built than some VW's too....
I think it does look far better than any other competitor. the only design need to improve is the back arch needed to be more sleek. i mean more glass less metal arch at the back
"if you're watching this in the UK you probably..." Uhh no just because you live in the UK doesn't mean you're a porochial rube who know nothing about the world beyond the coast. That nonsense aside, Hyundai/Kia seem to have picked up the ball Toyota dropped and these Genesis models look fantastic, the tech is bang up to date, the drivetrains superb and the build quality and reliability will be unrivaled if their cooking range of cars is anything to go by.
I love how they say the glove box won’t fit much, it’s meant to fit driving gloves, otherwise they’d build and call it the storage for all forms of crap in the dash box.
Looks fantastic. Poor that the review doesnt mention or discuss the 5 year 60,000 mile warranty or the 10 year 100,000 mile powertrain warranty. Won't get that from the german brands. I'd have one if i had the money.
Lol sooo he said not keeping its value compared to the other “established” brands… Funny because BMW, Mercedes and Audi’s depreciation is crazy every time I check.
I’ve just got rid of my Mercedes GL500 AMG. It was absolutely terrible - non stop trouble. I’ve just bought a GV80. It is beautiful. Drives amazing. All the mod cons you want. Style and substance. Also excellent after care service. And where I am in the Middle East £60000 cheaper than a Lexus LX that I was looking at. An absolute no brainer!
Also good to mention this is a Hyundai, which means reliability, unlike BMW and Audi, which will make the service garage your second home and not cheap as well, not to mention Land Rover, this comes broken from the factory.
Great car. The biggest problem with this brand in the UK is lack of advertising and brand awareness. Genesis need to really up their game and make the buying public aware of their luxury brand. If they don't they will unfortunately fail as people in the UK are like clones and default to buying Mercedes/BMW/Audi. A few with imagination and thought buy Lexus.
I owned a 2013 Hyundai Genesis. I would have kept it forever but it got totaled in a wreck. I have not liked any car since :( I think Genesis is the THE BEST!!! I would love to own the SUV one day.
I suspect that with a 5 year warranty that includes servicing, maintenance, digital updates and a courtesy car when required, along with better reliability than its European competitors, this pretty decent car will have its customers. But that ad is just weird.
I would say it's definitely looks wise and in general a breath of fresh air, so much more original than the comptetition in and out. That's I think a big part of why Lexus is just doing okay and Infiniti completely failed in Europe (DS has a native market at least to support it's existence in Europe), both Lexus and Infiniti have always been outdated and generic. Lexus have tried to shake it up lately, Infiniti never even put one pinky worth of effort but Genesis is not only original in style, they also offer a better ownership experience.
Lexus always was outdated? You clearly have no Idea. In the First 15 years of it's existence, loads of never before seen tech debuted on a lexus, for example the Lexus Ls was the first car in the world with LED lights
I’m really sad that Infiniti failed especially when all the cars they sold were dropped dead gorgeous but the problem were the steering and interior. They needed to put more effort into the cars and the rivals on the inside just looked better than the dated Infiniti
Hi.a very interesting review. I agree with you I think going up against more established brands in this format will be a hard sell. I think a better idea would of been to launch it in the uk as an electric version first at a sensible price.
Strange that a car magazine came up with a pretty inaccurate history of Genesis in the UK, a few years ago they launched a premium saloon here, it didn't sell well tbh but What Car actually did on of their short road tests on it when it was introduced, do worry that the future will be no better for the brand this time, at least unlike last time they seem to be giving it a chance by offering a range of vehicles, when the saloon was inroduced in the past i they hamstrung it by not offering the AWD version which was available in the USA.
Wanted a genesis saloon when only 2 were available in the UK a few years back. But... didn't go for it in the end. Didn't fancy the 450mile trip to go see it.
Please do not hate me, this is my opinion. I do not really like it because people are turning EVERYTHING into SUVs and that kinda annoys me. But. Is not that bad of a car. Still, if it is still a coupe then I would like it even more.
I just wonder whether it would be wise for anybody in UK to invest in ICE cars given the deadline for ICE automobiles production is 2025 and it would be not long when the support for them would also be discontinued. I guess, it’s the reason why Tesla took off well because people invested in the company with the future of automobiles in UK. But you know better.
I doubt it will actually become the electric utopia you expect as early as 2025. I would guess that will be come a goal rather than a reality in less than 3.5 years.
I like it, but... If you buy a German car you have plenty of spare parts on the market. This is actually a much more expensive car although it's selling price is lower than competition.
Indeed. In fact there is a specific dedicated storage area in the rear, under the floor for it, the portable air compressor and cargo net. I suspect the manual was in the glove box because they actually expected the reviewers to refer to it (hint, they don't read manuals, and some of the facts quoted are simply incorrect).
I wouldn't put Tesla in the luxury marque category...Tesflop is an Ugly car with horrible interior and poor quality. Now the Genesis vehicles are luxury cars beautiful Interiors well crafted and good looking cars with loads of Technology..
Problem with this is that the everyday Man on the corner won’t know what it is. Hyundai could be getting In too deep going after the established Germans. I mean Infiniti only made Ripples not waves with UK consumers. Id hate to see them Throwing it all away after the superb Ionic 5. If it does not succeed its just a shame Thats all.
Unless you said the same about Mercedes S Class then ……coz they 1st used road surface reading on the S class back in 2014 , 1 year Before Genesis brand was born. If you really obsessed with air suspension etc then you should reviewed the G80 and not the SUV version .
Like it.. Wish genesis well :)

Korean engineers tend to keep their product mechanically simple lol
And Hyundai aren’t guilty of emission scandals either.
I think this will sell very well as it's a well built reliable suv with lots of luxury for the money you pay but that numberplate needs to be lower
Give Genesis a chance, it's got much better build quality than a Tesla and i'm sure the buying and aftersales experience will blow BMW or Audi out of the water.

Just walked past this car in Westfield and it is a truly luxurious SUV. Leather, real wood and chrome everywhere. This video doesn’t do the car any justice at all.
This car is perfect. Wow
So nice to see this brand coming to the UK, I thought it wasn't and was only gona be everywhere else. Hyundai's premium brand looks amazing. I hope it does well. Better than German rivals I think. Although I would go for a saloon.
I think the center of the first row also has a middle airbag that deploys. So that must've further secured Tiger Woods even more during the roll over. Always wear seatbelts.
looks so much cooler than mainstream german brands.. Sure people are badgesnobs, but that is just their slave insecure mentality, and I wouldn't care what people think. Its a solid looking, solid built car. Im still shocked at this day and age, people still think a certain car makes them superior, or feel cooler... Its beyond sad...
Badge snobs indeed. Even today, some people just would not want to be seen in a Skoda. And Skoda's cars are as good as anyone elses at the price they sell at... The new Octavia looks as good/stylish as a BMW 3 series inside. And probably a tad better built than some VW's too....
One of my favorite suv's
I think it does look far better than any other competitor. the only design need to improve is the back arch needed to be more sleek. i mean more glass less metal arch at the back
"if you're watching this in the UK you probably..." Uhh no just because you live in the UK doesn't mean you're a porochial rube who know nothing about the world beyond the coast. That nonsense aside, Hyundai/Kia seem to have picked up the ball Toyota dropped and these Genesis models look fantastic, the tech is bang up to date, the drivetrains superb and the build quality and reliability will be unrivaled if their cooking range of cars is anything to go by.
I love how they say the glove box won’t fit much, it’s meant to fit driving gloves, otherwise they’d build and call it the storage for all forms of crap in the dash box.
Definitely eco friendly.....if it helped to protect a tiger 😄
Looks fantastic. Poor that the review doesnt mention or discuss the 5 year 60,000 mile warranty or the 10 year 100,000 mile powertrain warranty. Won't get that from the german brands. I'd have one if i had the money.
It appears What Car has never heard of Lexus.
What about Lexus in UK? Is it successful or...?
It wins in the exclusivity department, probably will find one for every town eventually in the U.K.
Lol sooo he said not keeping its value compared to the other “established” brands… Funny because BMW, Mercedes and Audi’s depreciation is crazy every time I check.
I think this gv80 does look better than majority of its rivals apart from the Volvo XC90, the XC90 is a very good looking car
Isn’t Lexus a good example of a newish brand that did well? I know it was 1989 but they did relatively well from the start.
It looks great! I rather have that than any other from the list, imagine how unique you will be on the road !
I’ve just got rid of my Mercedes GL500 AMG. It was absolutely terrible - non stop trouble. I’ve just bought a GV80. It is beautiful. Drives amazing. All the mod cons you want. Style and substance. Also excellent after care service. And where I am in the Middle East £60000 cheaper than a Lexus LX that I was looking at. An absolute no brainer!
I’ve wanted a genesis since the brands first conception
Also good to mention this is a Hyundai, which means reliability, unlike BMW and Audi, which will make the service garage your second home and not cheap as well, not to mention Land Rover, this comes broken from the factory.
Great car. Just wish the rear room was bigger. Seems tiny for this class of car.
Great car. The biggest problem with this brand in the UK is lack of advertising and brand awareness. Genesis need to really up their game and make the buying public aware of their luxury brand. If they don't they will unfortunately fail as people in the UK are like clones and default to buying Mercedes/BMW/Audi. A few with imagination and thought buy Lexus.
I owned a 2013 Hyundai Genesis. I would have kept it forever but it got totaled in a wreck. I have not liked any car since :( I think Genesis is the THE BEST!!! I would love to own the SUV one day.
I suspect that with a 5 year warranty that includes servicing, maintenance, digital updates and a courtesy car when required, along with better reliability than its European competitors, this pretty decent car will have its customers. But that ad is just weird.
Awesome video, great review. He didn't mention the Merc GLE though Is this man Anti - Mercedes?He only talks about the Beemer and Audi.
But I like the looks. Have liked it since i first saw it. And I'm British. I currently own a German SUV, but want to keep an open mind about Genesis.
I would say it's definitely looks wise and in general a breath of fresh air, so much more original than the comptetition in and out. That's I think a big part of why Lexus is just doing okay and Infiniti completely failed in Europe (DS has a native market at least to support it's existence in Europe), both Lexus and Infiniti have always been outdated and generic. Lexus have tried to shake it up lately, Infiniti never even put one pinky worth of effort but Genesis is not only original in style, they also offer a better ownership experience.
Lexus always was outdated? You clearly have no Idea. In the First 15 years of it's existence, loads of never before seen tech debuted on a lexus, for example the Lexus Ls was the first car in the world with LED lights
I’m really sad that Infiniti failed especially when all the cars they sold were dropped dead gorgeous but the problem were the steering and interior. They needed to put more effort into the cars and the rivals on the inside just looked better than the dated Infiniti
Yes it look better than the other
Yo gotta stop the comparison to Bentley! This is a great car special in its own way!
Tiger has a future working as a crash dummy for EuroNCAP. Great slab of metal, bought second hand.
Hecc yes!
Subscribed. Nice review.
Hi.a very interesting review. I agree with you I think going up against more established brands in this format will be a hard sell. I think a better idea would of been to launch it in the uk as an electric version first at a sensible price.
Much better than the equivalent Mercedes-Benz.
Why doesn't the UK get the 3.5-litre twin-turbo V6 like the rest of Europe and other markets like North America and Australia do?
I liked the Genesis playing in th Genesis move.
Strange that a car magazine came up with a pretty inaccurate history of Genesis in the UK, a few years ago they launched a premium saloon here, it didn't sell well tbh but What Car actually did on of their short road tests on it when it was introduced, do worry that the future will be no better for the brand this time, at least unlike last time they seem to be giving it a chance by offering a range of vehicles, when the saloon was inroduced in the past i they hamstrung it by not offering the AWD version which was available in the USA.
Bring those alloys out of the 2010s and that car would be absolutely impeccable
Rather expensive for an Hyundai, they better offer huge discounts or cheap leases.
Audi is rather expensive for an Volkswagen, they better offer huge discounts or cheap leases.
@@rikkee5157 :))) judging by your comment, you know close to nothing about cars
@@Musicmedstudio what exactly does make you think this way 🙂🙂🙂
Wanted a genesis saloon when only 2 were available in the UK a few years back. But... didn't go for it in the end. Didn't fancy the 450mile trip to go see it.
Problem is big brand cars are not reliable any more. Those becomes white elephant for owners!Genesis can give reliability & comfort together.
Looks really better looking than the bmw x5
Shame the backseat space isn’t as good as the competition. That’s make it break for me.
Please do not hate me, this is my opinion. I do not really like it because people are turning EVERYTHING into SUVs and that kinda annoys me. But. Is not that bad of a car.
Still, if it is still a coupe then I would like it even more.
They have no good space management for second row seats. Very disappointing when the vehicle is just awsome!
Lesux are doing the best as premium brand of Toyota. Hope Genesis will take off as well.
Honestly will it be cheaper to run an Audi Q7 BMW or and Mercedes in the same class?
I just wonder whether it would be wise for anybody in UK to invest in ICE cars given the deadline for ICE automobiles production is 2025 and it would be not long when the support for them would also be discontinued. I guess, it’s the reason why Tesla took off well because people invested in the company with the future of automobiles in UK. But you know better.
I doubt it will actually become the electric utopia you expect as early as 2025. I would guess that will be come a goal rather than a reality in less than 3.5 years.
I enjoyed watching the Video Review ☺️. I think the New Model looks very good 🐱
If you are Bentley, you must offer 50 paint color and 25 leathers
These are going to get 3 or 3.5 stars from our UK press just like Lexus do.
For silly reasons......
I think it doesn't look better nor worse. It looks competitive against it's main rivals.
I like it, but... If you buy a German car you have plenty of spare parts on the market. This is actually a much more expensive car although it's selling price is lower than competition.
Gv60 coming soon ?
5:08 Listening to Genesis in a Genesis 🤣
Probably PLENTY of room in the glovebox if the 2 whole REAMS of paper user manuals are removed and put elsewhere.
Indeed. In fact there is a specific dedicated storage area in the rear, under the floor for it, the portable air compressor and cargo net. I suspect the manual was in the glove box because they actually expected the reviewers to refer to it (hint, they don't read manuals, and some of the facts quoted are simply incorrect).
This looks better than a Bentley
Some guys in Australia managed to do 0-62 in that thing in 6.9 seconds.
I wish Genesis all the best with fickle car buyers who seem hypnotised towards the German brands.
Looks very American! Plus depreciation will most likely be a nightmare.
Looks very American is an accurate description
Peter Gabriel drives one of these.
Nice looking car, if a big luxury SUV is what you're after.... Should be relaible..
Taking the snob out of me it looks good 🤫
I wouldn't put Tesla in the luxury marque category...Tesflop is an Ugly car with horrible interior and poor quality. Now the Genesis vehicles are luxury cars beautiful Interiors well crafted and good looking cars with loads of Technology..
I can't the opinion of a one-handed driver seriously.
This is beautiful car ❤️ Awesome 👍 baby Bentley 💥
Will these be like the brand Infiniti so rare that you cannot re sell the thing, thus making them worthless?
Overly nice to be that good
Looks incredible
Problem with this is that the everyday Man on the corner won’t know what it is. Hyundai could be getting In too deep going after the established Germans. I mean Infiniti only made Ripples not waves with UK consumers. Id hate to see them Throwing it all away after the superb Ionic 5. If it does not succeed its just a shame Thats all.
If I could, I would.
Looks great.
Vince Staples brought me here 😁
Unless you said the same about Mercedes S Class then ……coz they 1st used road surface reading on the S class back in 2014 , 1 year Before Genesis brand was born. If you really obsessed with air suspension etc then you should reviewed the G80 and not the SUV version .
It looks like a cross of a bentayga and the ssangyong rexton
Euro cars = what is reliability?
Asian cars = hold my beer...
I'm not sure
