2020 NEW Genesis G90 vs Mercedes S-Class // When The Bargain Meets The Boss
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ก.ย. 2019
- James and Thomas compare the NEW 2020 Genesis G90 with the 2019 Mercedes-Benz S560. Both cars have V8s and boast a ton of luxury features. Both are AWD, and both make the occupants feel like a million dollars. But the Genesis is new on the block, and for 55,000 Canadian dollars less, can it hope to compete? The boys explore how well the cars drive, and if their price comes with any catches. Watch to see the outcome!

#G90 #Mercedes #SClass - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
The fact that the G 90 is being compared to this is an enormous accomplishment
I
Agree
With
You
On
I recently bought a 2016 Genesis AWD with the ultimate package and I absolutely love it. $25k with 7 year warranty is an insane deal for what you get.
I bought the same exact car last week 2016 Genesis Black Ultimate with tech package, traded my sonata limited for it. Its certified so i get the rest of the warranty also. 1 owner low miles. 26k as priced and im paying a lot less with the 14k trade, the payments are about the same as my Sonata was. I didn't think I would get one for a few years but got a great deal! I LOVE THIS CAR! This thing grips and rips and man do the seats make a huge difference, and the heads up on the windshield is what sold me on the test drive.
Funny people dont realize how fast Hyundais are either, every Sonata ever made did over 120mph, the first Genesis did around 157 and ours do about 174mph, 0-60 in 5.9sec that is FAST for a sedan of any kind, more than needed thats why the 5.0 is really just a bragging right the 3.8 GDi HTRAC is perfect for me... Already sacrificing some gas mileage.
Always buy used. A lot of the time used luxury cars are such a steal
I'll be looking for this 2020 model Genesis in 2025. Hopefully, I can pick one up for $30k or less. This car has such a presence, I can't get over how stunning it looks. The Merc styling seems so outdated and old sitting next to the Genesis.
What's a genesis?
I respect Hyundai for trying to make this car. I've owned several Mercedes while I was stationed in Germany but it is very impressive that Hyundai is doing what they're doing
@yagbos genesis is the new brand dude...

@@isla2202 he said hyundai cuz they made the first genesis car which then turned into the genesis brand, which therefore is the child company of hyundai
The fact that genesis is being compared to cars that cost twice the cost of itself is incredible and tells you how much effort genesis has been through
now they are around the same price
@@good-tn9sr you mean used 2020- s class and g90 😂 prolly they are since s class resale is worst
i don't see the difference of double between 90k & 145k !
I wasn't a fan of the g90 in the pictures but one passed by me yesterday and it looks properly stunning in real life.
I totally agree. At night it's the king
I think the g90 just has a lot more presence
Carlos Leon sorry . It will never have more presence even that an e class ... you know why ? That mercedes badge . It’s just the way the world works .
@@omb5722 nonsense, where i live mercedes are everywhere, you pull up in this and people are gonna stop and stare.
@@omb5722 "your" world works.
The grill on the G90 can be also used as a Korean BBQ grill at tailgate parties.
korean call that superman grill
Lmao
Isn't that a master plan of Genesis?? Multipurpose grille is ingenious idea!!!!!
Inv me bro
😃😝👍
Basically they both agreed that it’s a fantastic car. Good enough to be compared to the big boys. All it needs is an image. A big race win or a movie feature. That’s all I wanted to hear. Good job genesis.
It’s a luxury focused brand, so the movie would make more sense. But first, they need to QC in North America because the C class is built in Alabama too and there’s no fire risk… also I’m aware their reputation is better in other parts of the world
The Mercedes is obviously overpriced
It may not be much but the G90 was featured in a K-Drama series called "The Veil", though the car that was featured has the 3.3 variant.
Honestly the more I saw the G90, the more I enjoyed its design. At first the grill looked horrendous to me
Why do people hate big bold and stately grilles? It's almost like an instinct that's being driven into us to like anaemic small and dinky tightass grilles that aren't even upright and slant away like some old person's forehead xD
Interesting I just don't like the wheels on the g90
@@stevencorbo1220 they remind me of bbs wheels and I kinda like how different they are
@blubber cow Clearly the people making the Big money at the Car companies think otherwise.
Personally, I feel a big whack Sports car with the grille the shape of a erm, 'line' or something slopey and weird like the hideous one's Lexus' have is very underwhelming
I think so
I don’t even have $1000 why am I watching this...
Same here man
because if we have $1m, we would be driving it lol
So you can rent the car on turo for a day haha
😂
Because dreams... goals... achievements.
I have G80 which I bought it 8 months ago and I love my car. It has so many options not only safety related but also the ones that makes driving much easier. Definitely love my new car
"The Genesis does feel that it is lacking some identity, and that's something I hope will change over time..."
C'mon dude...Mercedes has been building luxury cars for over century. Hyundai has been building luxury cars for 10 years. And look how far they've come in that time...hell, look at how far they've come since 2017 when the Genesis brand was born. Give the Koreans 100 years and then talk to me about identity.
I was never one to pay for a name brand; I have always been about getting the most bang for the buck. In the US, a G90 Ultimate is $76700. A comparably equipped S560 would be $145000. The G90 is 90% of the car that the S class is (with better initial quality according to JD Powers and a way better warranty) for 53% of the price.
That's why I have a 2018 G90 parked in my garage.
I think you're confusing what they meant about identity. They weren't talking about genesis' brand value, rather the lack of personality of the car. They talk more about it, how the car feels a bit generic/ reverse engineered s-class. There is a lack of original thought, though I think it will be fine in the long run.
Taking an example from phones; Xiaomi started by trying to copy design cues from iphones and have been at the cutting edge ever since with the Mi Mix series.
listen the mercedes was given hundred years in the world that was not very advanced the genesis was born in an advanced world so of course they will be better at making cars in a hundred years . use a little bit of ur brain
You hit the nail in the head. That's why a G80 is in my driveway 🤣
That’s why it’s parked in mine as well!
@@vedanshsharma2787 u should learn English buddy
Just want to say that I love my Genesis G90 5.0 - I got it as a lease return (2019) for an absolute bargain at $57K CAD. I'm not going to lie - there are times when I miss my Camaro that was wrapped in Rolling Thunder color changing vinyl (which I traded towards the Genesis). Almost every time I took that car out, people would give me a thumbs up or do a double take. But after two Canadian winters and numerous spin outs on the 407, I decided to go the more practical route.
The Genesis is best described as "stately" - it looks okay when parked by itself, but the car can only be appreciated in full when you see it on the road beside other cars. It's size and overall design language make you realize that the Genesis is something special, and anybody that actually sits inside of it is blown away by the quality. Sure it doesn't attract as much attention as a BMW or Mercedes, but I have had several people ask me if it was a Bentley. Plus, in the 10 months I have owned the car, there hasn't even been so much as a hiccup - the warranty and concierge service is out of this world. If you factor in that virtually nobody else has one (less than 1000 sold in Canada), you have a car that is truly unique and worth every penny.
PS: I really hope the 2023 Genesis G90 comes to North America - that car is the best looking full sized sedan I have ever seen. If somebody offered me an S Class or a New G90, I would actually chose the latter despite the lack of brand recognition. It is just that good looking.

The exterior design of the G90 is absolutely incredible. So unique. I love those straight, simple headlights (and extended DRLs) paired with the diamond grille that stretches to the front splitter. To me, the G90's exterior hit the nail on the head over the S-class. It's understated, yet with just enough flair that people won't mistake it for an E-class or a big C-class. Interior still goes to the Merc, and it better at that price point.
Bang-up job by the Koreans. I really hope people start paying them attention. It's unfortunate that they created these incredible luxury sedans that won't sell as well in a world dominated by boring crossovers.
In 5 years, this Genesis will be mine
Zack Smith s classes are the mercedes that actually last
2020 TÜV report actually revealed that Mercedes builds the most reliable cars. The German TÜV report is the best independent car reliability check in the world as every single vehicle in Germany get's tested to the same standards. No exceptions.
@@jannisopel yeah no. Everything I've read tells that mercedes is mediocre to very poor in reliability. Lexus and Toyota stand as the king of dependency.
@@philipweber9545 People say a lot, not gonna lie, especially true on the internet. (Writing something on a Website replaces "saying" here). Having owned a lot of Mercs I could access the following myself.
Is it the best ratio of price to reliability? Hell no.
Is saying "mediocre" to "very poor" a stupid understatement? I can say yes. The worst Mercs ever built are, in my experience still slightly above Mediocre in terms of reliability. I think there is some sort of Trump conspirancy trash talk going on and in due time the "Made in America, is made with quality" kinda stuff will be everywhere. Not only for Mercs, but also for Toyota and Lexus. Just a little tin foil thought.
@@hiiambarney4489 I'm just saying because I like trying to look upon the reliability ratings of cars (often getting mixed reviews), I read these consumer reports and blah blah blah and they point otherwise. But it's just generalizing. You have your own experience with your own cars and stuff like reliability can vary wildly from model to generation and year, so it can still be 2 sided. I understand thr cocept of pariotism and believing that if that car was made in your country it must be good, but just everything I've read and been told says that most Japanese and especially those made by Toyota are tanks. I don't speak from personal experience I just repeat others. Have a nice day :]
That "this must be how cyclists in Toronto feel" had me dying 🤣
😂
i'll wait three years, buy it used after depreciation does its wonderful magic. New car buyers, thank you for holding the bag :)
Genesis keeps its value pretty well though so watch out for good deals!
Look out for 7 series, those things depreciate faster than your mom swollows.

Make sure you find you a CERTIFIED PREOWNED vehicle.

3:04 as someone who recently got my license in Toronto this is the most accurate thing I have ever heard
As a Jag owner, I love my car, I love the luxury features, but the constant maintenance headaches and problems the car has is what attracts me much more to the Genesis rather than a German rival. The better service and better warranty at a much lower price point plus running on 87 octane gas is a huge plus, its a cost saving reliable luxury car which you do not really find in terms of the running costs for other brands, the only thing is whether I can get over the lack of power in the Genesis, yeah 420 is plenty, but my supercharger really makes me happy...and the potential to have nearly 600hp versus a 420 hp genesis with less torque is a hard argument, so I guess the bigger question beyond brand reputation is faster and higher maintenance versus cheaper and less of a headache.
To be fair, the G90 is about $50,000 less expensive than the S-Class.

Genesis is the Lexus of the 2010s. They’re building quality, luxury vehicles that seriously rival the big German brands. The only thing holding them back is unfounded bias/stigma from people who refuse to actually drive a Genesis.
PRN_TestDrive and an identity. They look like generic version or other luxury cars. Infinity and Lexus made a name for themselves with originality and innovation. I don’t see that in Hyundai. Look at the grill on that thing! Looks like a bizzaro Audi!

@Casper Gomez
Aren't you meant to be standing outside Home Depot
Look, all of this is going to be opinion anyway, so there's no wrong answer, but if you look at the first few Lexus models, especially something like the 1999 LS 400 we featured, it's a carbon copy of the Mercedes S-Class. Even the succeeding LS 430 looked a lot like the S-Class from the outside. Most people are complaining now that the G20 BMW 3-Series stole the exterior design from the Lexus IS, so everyone's copying off each other.

I can’t let go... GENESIS is always gonna be my brand.. even I have an extra $100k for more big dog brands.. I even owned a Porsche Panamera S4.. but my genesis got my heart.
LOL you guys are brilliant !! love the reviews ! keep doing what you are doing ! its brilliant !
1:45 The s class actually has a lower drag coefficient than mclaren so its more aerodynamic :p
That's true but the surface area is much higher so the overall aerodynamic efficiency is worse
size and weight... also matters XD
But you have to think about how the mclaren has a bunch of downforce which would result in a higher drag coefficient
@@arvinreddyjakkamreddy2102 McLaren's downforce and drag come from the active rear spoiler (except the 540c 570s 570GT which has no active rear wing). It can tug away when not at full braking or high-speed cornering.
Front of a mclaren is supposed to be aerodynamic, but the rear is specifically made non aerodynamic, to push the rear wheels down. That's what spoilers are made for. To make a car LESS aerodynamic.
What you guys didn't do, and what at least one of these cars is built for, is drive it up and down the autobahn at 250+ km/h for a couple of hours at a time, which is how S classes spend much of their time. Then you'd figure out more clearly where the extra cash that you payed for the Mercedes went. High speed stability, effortless way in which it can be driven at extreme speeds with zero stress, etc. is what makes German high end luxury sedans better than any other. Sure you can make a car that feels nice stationary or at low speeds, that has high quality materials in the interior, etc. It's not like Germany has special wood and special cows. But making a car that feels rock solid at high speeds and during extreme driving, is a bit more difficult. The autobahn shows you the difference between true luxury cars and knock offs built for price undercutting. Also note that the G90 is a brand new development, while the S class is in the last year of it's life cycle. New model is already being developed and spied on roads in Germany. So you're comparing the beginning of a generation to the end of a generation. Not to mention that everything about the Genesis that makes it feel as good as the German competitors has been COPIED from those same German competitors. All the materials, designs solutions, details, etc. have a clear "knock off" sense to them. Which is not surprising, considering how many ex-German car company engineers were employed by Kia/Hyundai in the last decade or so, which led to those companies going from making really crappy cars to really good ones overnight. That's what makes them lose their value, because these cars didn't get to the point they're at now through years and years of development and R&D, figuring out what works and what doesn't, solving engineering problems, etc. They got to this point by buying the competitor cars, taking them apart, and copying every part of them, with just enough changes to avoid copyright claims and patent breaches.
You talking like you drove the car high speed. Stop spreading lies
ARkong DRkong I don’t think it’s spreading lies because after all MB has access to the autobahn hence the reason why it’s priced that way.

Another vid I liked just for the intro alone. Cheers.
Excellent and very fair review...nice job, guys.
You touched on virtually everything relevant in comparing these two. One thing I do differ with you on, though...you opine that the Genesis cars lack an identity. Since they've pulled their top-tier design team together, I think they actually are creating a unique design language and positioning for their line. It has no legacy, because it's new, and it has necessarily overlap with other competitors. Considering the talent they have working on these, it seems clear that that is specifically their mission. While it is true that the Benz has an identifiable brand feel and aesthetic (some of which you associate with them just because they've been doing it for awhile), it seems in some ways a little dated to my eyes, or perhaps like it's trying a little too hard. Take, for example, the glossy dash with the bank of round a/c vents. I think the understated styling of the G90 is actually prettier in some respects, particularly the interior, and seems a little more Audi-modern than the Mercedes. Just my take.
But, I really enjoyed hearing your view(s)...please keep up the fine work.
The intros are dope af ✅💯
Thanks for this video! I couldn't decide which one I liked better so I bought both.
I even loved Hyundai Sonata 2013 compaired to other cars in it's class.
It just gives you the feeling that you can go anywhere long distance day and night with the car and feel comfortable and relaxed like the car is with you.
One of these days, someone out there is going to put Superman's S on the front grill of their G90.

lol
Didn’t help when about 9:30 they start talking about big packages 😐
True though 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I would personally go for the genesis. In the luxury car realm, the Mercedes is just so common. The genesis is different than everything in its class and I can stand out from the rest. Badge snobs can say what they want but at least genesis owners won’t have to step foot in the dealership or service department. They get the 10year/100k mile warranty and genesis and Hyundai are cheaper to run in the long run.
I agree. The S class reminded me too much of an e class. The genesis is so unique in its design, inside and out. I would get the g90 over a new ls500 hands down.
In the end though..
"Hey have you met that guy kaname?"
"Yeah that Hundai guy?"

@@jhonatanramirez6368 And what did you drive before that? I've had 3 German products, preferred my G80 Sport 3.3.. down to personal preference

Batman: Where's the S class?
Driver: It's in the shop, sir.
I'm pretty sure it was a Maybach.
endless money pit🤣
Ha..ha..spot on!
Still resales better than any g90
Its better than ford.

It's interesting that the cheaper platform mate Kia K900 has full digital instruments but not the G90.
The G70 in Korea has a digital display. Probably coming soon
Should debut sometime in 2020
I think digital gauge clusters are a bit tacky. It's nice to have old-fashioned, yet classy needle gauges.
Yes, and so is Casio watches, but nobody in their right mind would think it's better then a Patek which is full mechanical and cost more then a S Class.
Tyler Baugh K900 is a POS though
Thomas comparing the G90 wheels to a Century and James’ “whatever” reaction is quite ironic considering he now has Century! Yes, I just came here from that video. Amazing purchase James!
Lol that Intro is so creative. No one did that xD very nice and entertaining and totally unexpected
“Bargain” 90K whos the audience lol saudi arabia

Saudi believes only in the Luxes LX
Car’s are actually even cheaper there due to the fact that gas there costs less. Genesis is very popular there, even more than an S Class

Can you please test the noise in these cars by using sound meter.
and with the back window closed in the G90 :))
@@hashname90 window is closed,it's sun protector...
The S is much more silent
@@nikkib1661 im not sure. In older model Lexus was more quieter than mercedes.
@@driverlexus4025 maybe but the new s class hast doubled windows and all that. I'm sure the Lexus will be louder
Loved the intro lads 😂 keep up the great work!
The totally random moose joke was one of the best ever I've seen from you guys, thanks James!
loved the batman sketch ! you guys certainly have a great sense of humor :)

The best intro of ANY car review. EVER!!!

I’m a big Hyundai, Kia, Genesis fan. Owner a 2012 Hyundai Genesis RSpec. Best car I’ve ever owned..and I’ve owner many BMW 3 Series
Me too!!! 2012 Hyundai Genesis R-Spec 5.0... I purchased it Dec. 2017 for $10,600 + Tax and Fees... I have driven the crap out of this car (55k miles in less than 2 years) and other than the Piston Rings (burns oil) for the 2012 5.0 being an issue the car has been rock solid and fun to drive... So much so my wife got a 2014 Hyundai Equus Ultimate... Both cars are amazing....
@suv tucson I purchased the car with 102,000 miles on it. It was burning oil when I got it. Didn't know it though. Scared the crap out of me. Then I read about the early Hyundai 5.0. They used German piston rings. I was going through a quart every 1000 miles. I use a slightly heavier oil during the summer 10w-40w and during the winter 5w-30w. Now I go through a quart every 1200-1500 miles. Not great but it is what it is. Hyundai switched to US made rings in September 2012 which resolved the issue. I checked $4000 to have them replaced. No car is perfect. A 5+ year old car with over 100k miles and that is my only real issue. I count myself lucky.
To elaborate further. In the last 2 years I have replace the coils and plugs. I am not a mechanic but did the work myself in 40 minutes. Cost me $270 using factory parts. My Alternator was going bad. Cost $310 to have it install here locally. Not at the dealer. They wanted $550, and that is it except for personal upgrades.
- New 19 inch Black rims - $610
- Removed exhaust from secondary CATs back. Removed those CATs, removed resonator and replaced with X-pipe, and installed Mag-Flows. - $900.
Tell me more! I'm wanting to go Hyundai as well for luxury and mostly reliability
@@dennisreynolds6915 What would you like to know? Do you like wood interior? I can't stand it so went with all leather dash with the R-Spec 5.0. If you want less sport, wood grain dash, more bling then the 2014 Equus is amazing.

its great if you guys discussed the warranty as well, and cost of maintenance. 👍🏽
12:14 did anyone else’s Siri go off when he said that 😂
Man I love that Benz. Love its look from all angles. I wonder how the ride is
