agree 100% on the screens...like this version over the GV80's big screen. The bad news is that the GV70 gets the big screen next year too so if you like this version you have to buy this year.
Joe, I absolutely love the Genesis GV70 3.5t and I think to me I am a fake vent fanatic because without them the fender & the bumpers would look rather bland.
I just picked up my 2025 GV70 yesterday. I had a 2017 macan GTS, which I loved. I traded that in for a g70, which was an absolute blast to drive. You certainly cannot knock the drivability of the Macan. It's an amazing car but Genesis adds features that Porsche evidently doesn't care about. No remote start, which is kind of a big deal for me. This car is a total looker. And I agree with you it is a blast to drive. It's very similar in driving characteristics to the Macan and the brakes are good, but nobody competes with Porsche brakes. This is an awesome review.
What did you pay for it? Any discounts offered by Genesis or the dealer? I've noticed (on Autotrader) that these cars depreciate to $65K Cdn. once they have 8,000 - 10,000 kms on them. Was thinking I should buy a demo or lightly used one.
I know cargo nets suck but it beats cleaning Skittles out of the bottom of a pocket filled with mysterious sticky things set against rainbow colored lint. Just saying.
Joe's absolutely right about the distinct personalities between drive modes. Sometimes I completely forget about sport and sport +, but when I remember it's a whole lot of fun.
I saw a new Genesis rolling next to me on I-84 a couple of days ago. I was seriously impressed with how these looked in person. Video does not do it justice. The rims on this one are beautiful. Not sure about the reliability, but this certainly looks quality. Nicest looking Asian brand vehicle on the road today in my opinion.
Fantastic review! I’m still in tears over the “pelvic massage”…very informative and hilarious. Good call out on the NES classics. Keep up the great work!
As a 2020 Lincoln Nautilus owner with the 2.7 Twin Turbo with 335 HP, ( which is pretty peppy) the Genesis GV70 will be my next car with their 3.5 Twin Turbo 375 HP. Lincoln should have kpe tjhe 2.7 or the 3.) with 405 HP but unfortunately marketing people at Lincoln kept designing vehicles for my Grandpa!!
I think one of the reasons the hood has an overbite is that it has to do with aerodynamics, which also prevents the hood from shaking at speed. Other sources say it's an intentional design detail to make the GV70 look more sporty. Regardless, it doesn't bother me all that much when you consider everything else about the design of the GV70 is gorgeous.
Hey Joe! Great review dude! The "fake vent" texture is actually for continuity in design language. You notice how the rear fender has the same design theme? I'm no car designer but I'm guessing this is probably a new thing in car design trend.
This is a 2024 model. 2025 will have a different interior (new instrument panel) and I read the 3.5 twin-turbo V6 is being replaced with a 3.3 twin turbo V6.

Looking for this comment cause yeah the 2025 is a refresh year for the GV70. Saying that I don't like all the changes with the upcoming 2025. I was interested in the GV70 3.5T Sport Prestige but at $67K it's a hard sell as these Genesis cars as of recently had gotten more expensive then it needs to. Just a shame but it's a better value used instead as they lose a lot of value within 2 years.
@@volcalstone I work for Genesis - the 2025 is identical to the 2024 - next year in the spring we'll have the 2026 GV70, which will have the refreshed screen.
@@JGisMe2013 correct, there’s been a few minor changes to trims, but overall no major changes. Large refreshes are typical after around 3 years (average lease end). For example, the new gen BMW X5 came out in 2019 and was just updated last year in 2023 with no changes in between. Wireless CarPlay will be occurring with an OTA update sometime in the next few months, at least that’s what we’ve been told.
Smoosh the alpha rear bumper with the Porsche rear glass, the Audi character line with the BMW headlights, the land rover c pillars : presto, the premium sport Ute that Homer built
The color is beautiful but for the price there are certain things that seem to be missing. I'm really liking the gv80 and I want to check out the coupe version.
This thing is a beauty! It looks and feels special. The interior is sublime. The only thing I don’t get is the counter clockwise tachometer. This model year and earlier are the ones I would get, as Genesis will undoubtedly ruin the dashboard with a big screen combining the instrument cluster and the infotainment screen.
I think this is still the 2024. The 2025 is the refresh with the newer updates. It'll have the bigger all in one screen, different ambient lighting, and many more.
He is reviewing the correct 2025 model for the U.S. Market. The model with the bigger screen is 2025 for the Korean market. As their market is 6 months - 1 year ahead of the U.S. market.
Love their big round exhausts in the back they are sending a message we mean business. Hope the Mazda guys get the hint on their new CX90 with no exhaust tips!!
Joe, great review! I own a 2019 Macan S and I was looking at the Genesis as possibly my next car. How expensive is the maintenance? Oil change, breaks, etc… Also, how did it take the corners? Looked amazing on the straight aways!
Lack of usb C is a major zonk. Hard plastic back covers for seats get a major zonk.as.well. Not feeling the whole vehicle honestly. But i like the leather aggressiveness.
Are the front seats highly bolstered? We have a Volvo xc60 and the side bolsters are a real problem, and we're small people ;) We're looking for a similar vehicle with 'flat' seats since my husband has hip tendonitis and bursitis and driving causes huge flare-ups.
Just get a Lincoln… my 2020 Lincoln Corsair has USB type C in it and it’s a 4 year old car. The best part is that it does NOT require premium gas like all the genesis models.
I'M VERY SORRY MR. JOE, JUST TO LET YOU KNOW THIS GV70 IS 2024 MODEL AND 2025 HAS NOT REACH OUR SHORE YET JUST CAME OUT IHOME LAND SOUTH KOREA BASICLY CAR IS THE SAME BUT BIG CHANGE FOR THE INTERIOR LIKE BIG BROTHER 2025 GV80, ANYWAY YOU'RE ALWAYS GREAT OUR DEAR FRIEND........
Joe, I’m a big fan and love watching your videos with all vehicles. However, can you exhibit how the vehicle drives in regular driving mode in addition to the sports mode, which you focus on usually. I believe that most drivers use regular mode in everyday driving. Keep up the good work you guys. Thank you
Im loving the whole genesis line of cars
Just to let you know, Joe, you will never catch any flack for reviewing another Genesis masterpiece!
Never!

I wish they would take that shiny chrome and make that body color, so everything would look edgeless.

Joe I love you ripping ass around the roads…I just wonder if you’ve ever gotten pulled over or do you know the cops in the area?
Love this suv, esp the engine, but it's a bit heavy on the red interior. Great shade on the Capri Blue!
Just got the GV70 2.5T PRESTIGE 2025. Amazing car 😊
Not only do you deserve a follow, but I'm now buying this because of you! Your describing everything in fun way is awesome!🎉🎉

cross over SUV's just another fancy term for stationwagon. but I might consider one of these fancy stationwagon some day.

Thanks again for a great review!
That interior is something else.
Dang, shots fired at Steven's Type R ⚰️
My god that interior color, just wow looks truly comfortable and luxurious ❤️
The rear end is the weakest part of the SUV. Having a rotating gear selector might be a problem for some, but overall this is a very upscale interior.
Only Joe Raiti revs a brand new, not broken in engine several times into the limiter. That’s dumb

Yes of course Joe & I might has buy this SUV.

Any GV70 coupe coming soon?
Great review! But as an owner... The EV is 10x more fun!
The GV70 is super sexy and this color is perfect.
Love it. But for that price, I’m tempted by a Defender 90 P400.
Joe, great review! I own a 2019 Macan S and I was looking at the Genesis as possibly my next car. How expensive is the maintenance? Oil change, breaks, etc…
Also, how did it take the corners? Looked amazing on the straight aways!
Churping all wheel drive over 4500 lb. - awesome 👌
Another great video, and wow, what a SUV!!
Huge ZONK for USB-A ports in the rear seat though. This isn’t a 2014 model, sheesh.
Lack of usb C is a major zonk.
Hard plastic back covers for seats get a major zonk.as.well.
Not feeling the whole vehicle honestly.
But i like the leather aggressiveness.
Hey Joe, Can please review the GV70 2.5T
solid one
Are the front seats highly bolstered? We have a Volvo xc60 and the side bolsters are a real problem, and we're small people ;) We're looking for a similar vehicle with 'flat' seats since my husband has hip tendonitis and bursitis and driving causes huge flare-ups.
Can someone tell me what the difference is between Capri blue and Adriatic?
Has Genesis come up with a solution to the transfer case issue? I'm hesitant to look at one of these until it's solved.
JOE
Facelift is already released in Korea!
There’s nothing luxurious about the BMW X3 or any BMW for that matter…..
You’re kinda right about that . The Genesis is years ahead
lol, you people are delusional. BMW is superior to this Hyundai in every way. All German brands are.
why has this 2025 GV70 the old interior and not the new one?
"Junkasis". Go ahead talk the trash. It's a glorified HYUNDAI.
How comparison with NX350
This is much better all the way around.
GV70 all the way! BMW and MB can’t come even close!
The downshift is fake. It’s just piped in sound … you’ve been fooled. How does it feel?
I’ll take the X3 over this Hyundai/kia.
damn fine looking car.
You have great taste Todd!
I got that capri blue. It is absolutely stunning in person.
Just get a Lincoln… my 2020 Lincoln Corsair has USB type C in it and it’s a 4 year old car. The best part is that it does NOT require premium gas like all the genesis models.
👍
Turn signals bro!
City gas mileage 19..joe driving 12😊
Have you tried applying for a loan with Global Dominion?
It’s a nice looking car. But if you love to drive and can afford it BMW. Get the M40i
Exhaust could sound a lot better, too much rev hang

didnt these get a facelift ?
