This is a Motormouth couple car review of the Genesis GV70 compact luxury SUV. This GV70 has a 2.5L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine with an 8-speed automatic transmission; it has 300 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque, standard AWD. Premium fuel is required. This GV70 offers the most horsepower in this class but the new Lexus NX 350 has a little more torque at 317 lb-ft. our test model in Vic Black is the Advanced Plus trim, one below the top trim. It has a bold, yet sophisticated exterior design. This model does not come with the sport appearance package you get on the 2.5T Prestige and 3.5T models. It does have the same distinctive styling with the Crest grille and the wing inspired Quad LED headlights, but this model comes with shiny chrome accents throughout instead of dark chrome, 19” wheels instead of 21”, a different front bumper and exhaust pipes in a different shape and size. MotorTrend named the Genesis GV70, SUV of the year for 2022 and I can see why. The GV70 is an exciting addition to a very competitive category; it has a fresh design, two powerful engines, precise steering, an engaging drive and there’s great value in this 2.5T model. The amount of standard features this SUV comes with is impressive. A 14.5” touchscreen, 8” LCD instrument display cluster, Apple Carplay and Android Auto, a wireless charger, heated steering wheel and heated front seats. If you want leather seats, a panoramic sunroof, heated rear seats and ventilated front seats, you have to move up one from the base model for an extra $6,000 CAD. We are driving the Advanced Plus model for $59,000 CAD. Some extra features on this model include, a head-up display, an 18-speaker Lexicon audio system and blind spot view monitor. The top Prestige trim for $63,000 CAD comes with the sport appearance package, Nappa leather seats with suede trim, parking collision avoidance and park assist. Unfortunately, the only way to get the sport steering wheel is in the sport appearance package, which is only available on this top 2.5T trim and 3.5T models. Competition to the GV70 2.5T includes, the Mercedes-Benz GLC with a 2L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, 255 horsepower and a starting price of $49,900 CAD. The 2.5T gets 10.7L/100km, 22 MPG city and 8.4L/100km, 28 MPG highway.

If the worst feature to be found is the look of the steering wheel it's obvious that the GV70 is a winner.
I saw this car drive around Vancouver earlier this week. Wow it's a stunning car design.
The dealer we bought ours from 3 weeks ago had 3 including ours and they sold all in 4 days. I was familiar with GV80 at the time but not GV70. Where we live which is a large tourist county in east Tennesse with lots of traffic and I have seen on GV80 that must live close to us but no GV70s. It is an awesome vehicle and not astronomically high priced.
Hopefully full-size GV90 will be nice & comes with hybrid, PHEV and potentially EV options as well (Also for all the existing Genesis models)!
I have a 3.5T sport prestige (Cardiff green and vanilla beige) in the US and it’s an amazing car. I got this over a RDX, X3 and A5. No regrets.
We bought a GV80. Steering wheel looks fine in black. We get so many compliments. Great review. Give them time to improve brand recognition.
Gréât Choice, new Range Rover has same steering
Ordered the GV70 2022 2.5 T Advanced plus after watching your review.
Here is my 9 month review. My first Genesis purchase. Took a road trip to Pittsburgh from Oakville ON after a big storm in Dec, passing through Buffalo was challenging but the car remained planted with winter tires. Extremely comfortable ride quality, precision handling and the safety features are well thought out. In comfort mode the handling is between a Mercedes and an Audi, the BMW/Porsche handling is much tighter/harsher. The 300 horses are ready to kick in with a growl when you need them. Kids loved the Apple Car Play. Auto dimming side view mirrors were much appreciated (For some reason either people drive with DRL's at night or high beams on ??). Interior cabin plush and luxurious. Getting a lot of blinkers and thumbs up as I am driving down the street, seems like there is a budding Genesis fan base. So after 23 years of driving EVERY German brand I switched to Genesis, it was a big leap. Have not regretted it yet. (the fact I have never seen the inside of a dealership from purchase to service is a blessing) (is it confirmation bias, we shall see) Yesterday drove my friend's new 180,000 CAD ride from Stuttgart (You know which Brand), cannot compare, its a beautiful car. When I came back to my Genesis, I wasn't missing any tech other than the growling 6 Turbo. All for 120,000 CAD less. So 9 months later for my money and use case the GV70 is the way to go. For a 9 year old brand, Well done Genesis !!!!
Great feedback
Good luck 😊
I have owned this exact trim same exterior color with the red velvet interior. I am so impressed, we also purchased the GV80 and I get looks everywhere I go. The advanced trim is the perfect Goldilocks trim equipment and still the best engine versus the competition.
How long you wait after u place the order? Also are u from canada?
Well...you sold me. I've just ordered a silver 2.5T. Now for the waiting....have been told it will likely take 6mo or more. It can't come soon enough. Thanks for the excellent review - practical and focused on what people really need. Do you need the bigger engine? No...you may want it but you don't need it and it may get you into trouble. I've recently come from a 2018 BMW X3 M40i. Wonderful engine, buttery smooth but you never need that much power. The 2.5T has ample torque early and doesn't seem to run out of power in every day conditions. thanks again.
As always, love the great reviews - in-depth, personal and super helpful
Guys, been enjoying your videos for a while now. You sold me on that vehicle. Only problem: 8 to 10 month waiting list in Montreal, QC. This is getting quite frustrating watching great reviews and test drives but not being able to buy the cars… Keep up the great work.
Saw my first g70 in person the other day. It looks really nice. As I was walking out the store, I saw someone peeking inside of it and looking at the crest.
Been driving mine for the last two months and love every single thing about it! Really have to fish for those complaints. Its Motor Trends' Car of the year for 2022!!!!!!!
Excellent! You two have the best car review videos! I really appreciate your car analysis and comparison along with your Q&A section. It's very helpful. Thank you!!
Yes, you convinced me too! I ordered a 2.5T Prestige in May. I like having the top of the line but couldn't justify the cost of the 3.5T, so went with the top of the 2.5T range instead. I actually like the suede/Alcanterra inserts better than the quilted seats of the 3.5T. I loved that Burgundy colour from your 3.5T review so I went with that colour. It will be a long wait. Might see something in December. I was also bumped to the 2023 model, which increased in price by $1,000 CAD. They have NOT changed the steering wheel. They have removed Highway Drivers Assist II as well as they can't get the required chips. The only other change is to add monobloc brakes to the 2.5T. No wireless AA or Carplay. Oh well, still looking forward to it!
I really appreciate you taking the 2.5L trim rather than the bigger one. All other car reviewers were doing test drive with the bigger one and making all the comments but they are two different vehicles at the end of the day. There will be a lot of shoppers who are looking at the 2.5L and don't want to make a decision on it by watching the review on the V6. Your review stands out and deserve praise for giving an honest review on the vehicle. I would have jumped on it if it had a hybrid version. Based on what Hyundai is doing, I believe that a hybrid or phev of GV70 will be in pipeline for 2023 or 2024. I will wait on that. But, surely if I am in the market for an SUV around 40k USD, this is the one!
I got the 2.5t in the So Cal area, no option, MSRP $42.5K, it's so amazing, dreamy! Build quality is as soon as any Range Rover. 300 HP standard, very quite ride, fast when it needs to be....reclining rear seat....love the tail pipe and I think it's better than the round pipes, steering wheel look way better in person due to high quality of material...the NAV and Infotainment is the best in class, very sophisticated. Everything i mean everything feels expensive!!!
I don't see why people are making such a big deal about the steering wheel. I feel, why not be different and I think it looks nice and you have less black gloss to wipe and try to keep clean. Question - Did they tried to market up the price?
@@saulbachiller-smith8382 I also really like the steering wheel. Lazy maybe but I associate it with comfort.
@@saulbachiller-smith8382 ... I know. I like the steering wheel. Does not deserve all the hate from reviewers
hey, was it the standard trim?
@@bennylinhe3129 yes 2.5T base no options. buy it MSRP if you can find one in the color you like you won't regret it
Thanks for reviewing this I watch you guys very often. Wife and I bought a white with red/black interior GV70 Sport Prestige 2.5t three weeks ago and LOVE it. I really like color of interior on your review model. Lot of features but the finger print thing is awesome. Yes the 2.5t is QUICK. Was glad to hear you guys give your approval and to hear Zack talk positive, however, Zack Subaru, really? I am with Andrea don’t hear Subaru. We didn’t mean to trade but took her 2020 Hyundai Palisade Limited for regular service and now have a GV70. Another great review and I think everyone should put it is S and SUBSCRIBE!
Well first, thank you so much for the support. I agree, everyone should put it in S for subscribe. Lol! Congratulations on your new GV70, you have a beautiful SUV, enjoy.
Hello,
Yes this sure is sharp looking !
Thanks for sharing.
The interior is a master piece 🙌
We bought a 2023 GV70 Sport Prestige and we love it. Great review, thanks 🙂
Great review as always, you two! I could live with the dial shifter (I have one now on my Land Rover Disco Sport), it wasn't that hard to get used to. But I couldn't go for the "non-sport" wheel, it would bother me every time I sat in the car! The rest of the vehicle looks very nice, Genesis has done a good job with the GV70.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the review!
Excellent, very enjoyable review!
Thank you so much!
Just got GV70 3.5L a month ago after watching your review. Couldn't be happier with the ride.
GV70 is pretty popular in Metro Vancouver, at least in my suburb in the south. Given the commodity of German brands, Genesis has done really well for an upstart premium brand. Even G70 is quite popular.
My good friend bought the GV70 Sport yesterday and it's a beautiful car. I am a old Chevy muscle car guy and was impressed with the pull of the 4 banger 2.5L turbo. I drove this for a couple of hours on the road and it was a pleasure. Very plush but also sporty as well and lot's of room for a big guy like me who is 6'3. 55K is a big price to me but I have not bought a new car in almost ten years. :) I love the steering wheel !!!!
These have been selling so well in my area i see like 3 a day that’s pretty good for a new car brand
I just traded in my beloved G70, I had it for almost four years, no issues at all. I purchased a 2023 GV70 2.5T, I am in love! Thank you for your review!
So glad this review popped up on my feed. I love the way you do your car review. I subscribed right away. Thanks for sharing this video.
Thanks for the sub!
I’m a long time Audi enthusiast but my fiancé is looking for her next vehicle to upgrade to from her CX-5 and this is the front runner for her at this time after looking at all other premium brands, just waiting to drive the new NX. I really enjoyed your review of this vehicle and you have a very down to earth approach in your reviews. You’ve earned my subscription with this video. Great job.
Wow, thank you so much, really glad you subscribed, we appreciate your support - Andrea
I totally agree, nice video been waiting to see the 2.5T. I reserved mine back in August and was suppose to arrive 11/4, but now it will b 12/21. I did not see any point in spending an extra $11,000 for the 3.5T with everything I wanted. I will be very happy with the 2.5T Advanced Trim.
Does the Advanced Trim come with Massage seats?
@@HarpreetBedi01 - No, it does not in the US. It might be different in Canada.
@@HarpreetBedi01 The Prestige model does in Canada
I absolutely love this look of this car, I own a G70 and love it. I may upgrade! :)
Thank you for the review.
Wow! You guys pulled off a 180 from the 3.5T review. This is awesome!!! I am glad you liked this car as you mentioned in the 3.5T review that you are a Q5 biased. Thank you for this review! This made me very happy with my purchase decision.
3.5T is overpriced. Not sure why they always give us the top model, this one is better.
I really like the 3.5T, I just think Genesis is asking a lot for it.
@@Motormouth... How it's Compared to Lexus and Acura in Reliability...❓❓❓
Never heard of this car, but I’m buying one today lol. Tested it yesterday and it was fun.
I bought my GV70 3.5T Sport model (in the US) July 2021 & am absolutely loving it. Although I agree that the GV70 2.5T Advanced package is probably the best bang for your buck, even the top-of-the-line 3.5T is an excellent value in the states. Genesis has the best highway driving assist available. This combined with super quiet interior/smooth ride makes for pleasurable commutes back-and-forth from work. The interior/exterior is a work of art… mine is Uyuni white + red/black interior. And plus, The genesis warranty is 100,000 miles/10 year for the drivetrain… Jim Ellis dealer in Atlanta extended my warranty to lifetime (so long as I take it for all schedule maintenance visits… which I do anyway). Car and driver voted this best SUV of the year... I agree!
Nice review as always.
Great review.
Love the looks and interior of the GV70. As Zack's said, it mops the floor of the competition on the inside.
I think some German brands like Mercedes and Audi have been hiding behind their badges and getting away with their uninspiring and questionable quality interiors for too long. And I even like the steering wheel on this :-/)
The German brands are much better than Genesis!
@@michaelwiebe4282 Perhaps that's true in country club parking lots. Otherwise, it's a hard case to make.
@@michaelwiebe4282 yes in many ways...but the design of genesis is way better than those boring germans
@@michaelwiebe4282 Nope! Even a German reviewer agrees this car stands up to the German brands! Add to that the fact that its Motor Trends' Car of the Year for 2022 and you've got an amazing effort by the Koreans who, by the way, employed German techs from those other brands in designing this vehicle.
@@SEJ3333 Agreed. However they cannot compete with the AMGs, Ms and RSs of the world quite yet, as far as performance is concerned.
looks like another winner from Genesis..there interiors for the price point are very nice indeed..enjoy
I really like the look of the spoke sreering wheel and have gauge cluster. It reminds me of a Buick oe Olds from 50 or 60 years ago.
Lincoln Contirental from wayyyy back…
Thanks for taking my question!
Of course, thanks for participating!
Finally !! A gv70 2.5t review !
So many 3.5t sport prestige reviews are out and I really don’t like the fish scale wheels on the top trim
I like the steering wheel! I like to droop my hand at the 6 oclock position..Im lazy...and Im a lifelong trucker...I ll take this wheel anyday
I love these two
Thank you so much!
another fine review.
Thank you very much!
Thanks for a great review. Loved how you reviewed the model I would buy. Can you please also review C300 new model. Thanks
You got new subscriber ☺️
Interiors in these are beautiful
Beautiful new product reminds me of my previous esquire steering wheel
I’ve ordered mine in April (2.5T Advanced Plus) and still waiting for it….should arrive in 2/4 weeks 🤩
I cannot wait to get it cause back here in Quebec I haven’t even cross path with one single GV70 yet 😳
Quess I’ll turn some heads…so good looking in white 😉
P.S. Also like the wheel that way … It will be easier to cruise with the hand at 6
almost got in an accident just staring at one on the road the other day. Congrats! It is a beautiful looking ride indeed
Hey, I was wondering about how much you paid for the vehicle? what was the msrp?
@@bennylinhe3129 CDN$ 59K when I pre-ordered it in April
I have a sport advanced 3.5t
The sport wheel does bother me on long drives …. But around town it’s great. I’m in California, I have yet to see another yet, but I’ve had friends see them in other ca cities.
Really? I ordered my 2.5T Prestige in July and got in on October 22 here in Toronto. Actually got the white with the Blue interior.
Genesis needs to offer 3 things on the 2.5T models: 3 spoke steering wheel, full 12.3" digital instrument cluster, wireless carplay and androidauto.
GV70's design language, styling, luxury feel, tech and features are its strongest selling points.
V6 top trim is priced too high to be competitive in this segment, the driving dynamics isn't quite to German competitor's level. But the 2.5T trim with all the bells and whistles is a pretty formidable package.
Thanks for the detailed review Zack and Andrea.
Yes, Indeed. The best-in-class for sure!
Thanks Andrea & Zack for doing this 2.5t review - been waiting for it for a while. I am planning to lease the 2.5t select because like you said it is reasonably priced and has value written all over it. Buick steering wheel should go I agree; I test drove the 3.5 it's good but I didn't get the "wow" factor when price is considered. the only thing "missing" in the 2.5t select base model to me is the power folding side mirrors and may be a better looking more simple wheels. the "hump" at the back is a bit high as I have 3 kids; I still like this better than the GV80
Me too, I like it much more than the GV80.
Great review. This was very helpful. I was looking at Mercedes, Lexus, and Volvo. What was I thinking not putting this into the discussion. Going to test drive it today!
Glad it was helpful! - Andrea
@@Motormouth... How this car Compared to Lexus and Acura in Reliability..❓❓❓❓
Great video as always and great car too but any ideas when a hybrid or electric version will be out?
This is an incredibly attractive offer from Genesis. I've watched several reviews on the GV70...everyone loves the style. I mean....what's not to like?.
Not to like? The steering wheel. ;)
lol
I have my doubts that it will depreciate as projected...if it is the quality I suspect it will fall in line when it comes to resale value.
What's not to like is dealers wanting $10-15,000 over MSRP due to the high demand for this car coupled with the chip shortage causing low supply.
Don't quote me on this but, I think all the chips you need will be in the car when you get it....QC's got that.
I agree 110%. I find it annoying that 99% of all car reviews focus on the top trim (or at least a much higher trim). I want to see reviews for cars that *I can afford to buy* . Most people are cost-conscious. Why are they underserved by reviewers???
Another great review, folks. I agree that the steering wheel is kinda cheesy. It looks like a 90’s Buick. I’ll have to take this one for a spin. Also agree with Andrea’s reference to the “unfortunate” use of runflats on some competition. I have a 2020 X1 and can’t stand the runflats. The noise is unbearable on the highway, ride is harsh rather than German firm, and road feel is compromised. I’m really curious to see you compare this model to the 2023 X1.
I like the old school steering wheel because it reminds me of the navy blue 1979 Cadillac Coupe Deville with baby blue interior that I drove while getting my driver's license! Ah memories! And this was in 1993, not 1979 so I'm not that old...although it is 9pm and past my bed time! Good night!
I find it strange to see someone on here that had a similar Cadillac experience like me, except your experience happened one year before mine and the Cadillac interior is burgundy.
@@JT-fq2bl it just means you're supposed to buy the Genesis with the burgundy interior!
Fun Fact: Genesis has the Filippo Perini from Italdesign a head designer for Lamborghini, Luc Donckerwolke who did work for Lamborghini, Bentley and Audi. You have Albert Biermann, Fayez Rahman, and Thomas Schemera, engineers and M division former heads of BMW, SangYup Lee from Bentley, Alexander Selipanov from Bugatti, designer of the Chiron exterior, all on one team. Genesis was not playing around when they are going after the German brands.
Just got one in silver after tried Q3 and X3. A stunner and a constant head turner! Car and Driver SUV of the year!
Lol a Hyundai 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Congratulations, enjoy!
@@naveenthemachine Some people are just band whores, let alone know who were the designers of this Genesis SUV. 😂😂😂
@@andreaspencer9813 Thank you!
@@naveenthemachine I agree with you Lexus is cheap and nasty and indeed it is a Toyota. Caked up Toyota trying to look rich 🤣 but fails miserably...
I love my 2023 GV70 Advanced with the two spoked steering wheel especially on long trips. You can rest you hand in the middle which for me is comfortable.
My order of this exact trim from July in Mississauga my not arrive until the new year. Is this the Himalayan Grey with the Havana Brown interior which is my choice too ? After driving various Audi cars for over 20 years, I’m switching to Genesis, hopefully no regrets in the coming years ? Fingers crossed, great review Zack
love the 2 spoke steering wheel. looks so different. I do hate the dial shifter, I always have to look down on my discovery to see where the hell I am on the rotary shifter whenever I am doing a 3 point turn
I booked one after your review
Nice
This is absolutely the car I want to buy. Problem is, here we are 7 months after this review and they are STILL charging mid $60,000 for them. No way I'm paying $15-20K over the MSRP. I'll take a Santa Fe Calligraphy for a couple years until the price on these comes down to normal range. Should be able to get a good pre-owned one then.
have the prices come down now?
Totally with you on the steering wheel
Would love to see a comparison of GV70 vs 2022 RDX
Want this car! I love the 2 spoke wheel and the exhausts match the grill. The rims with solid bars from the Sports package look better tho.
Weird I really like the steering wheel. Very clean and elegant imo
I have a Genesis G80 these cars are top class there like BMW 7 series but at half the cost. Thinking about getting the GV70 next for the wife in the future absolutely amazing cars/suvs.
I’m getting this in January.
Another Great review. I can’t figure what you mean about the steering wheel? Looks good and hands fit at the right places. 2 vs 3 spoke ? I’m more interested in the controls within reach on the wheel. Maybe I’m missing something?
I owed various version of Genesis from the first gen sedan to the G80 V8. The GV70 could be my next car.
How’s your resale value on your genesis when you fade it in?
FREAKING KINKY! BABE WANTS A BUBBLE BATH! ❤️
I don’t have an issue with the 2 spoke steering wheel.; in fact love it. I’ve owned one for a couple of months and find it well laid out. The use of piano black plastic in a high touch area and haptic feedback instead of click buttons was a definite turn off for me. Similarly I wasn’t a fan of the sports package with high gloss black paint on the front and use of black plastic instead of chrome. That cr@p shouldn’t be on a luxury vehicle (IMHO). Very happy with my vehicle overall but the fuel economy I get is 40% more than stated… and that’s in Eco mode and trying to keep consumption as low as I can.
Completely agree about wish list:
Wireless car play
Three spoke steering wheel
Hyundai dealers in KY area are adding huge markups on the GV70 and GV80. Drove a GV80 with 2.5T and was impressed with how smooth it was. Resale value after 4 years 40% of new… Hyundai dealership experience. I don’t care how good it is. Gotta go with the bank of Lexus.
I would love to have this someday an upgrade from my Santa Fe Sport, too bad there's no local Genesis dealership here yet in Central Vancouver Island.
I have a 2019 G70 and I'd love to switch to one of these
Hot take but I love my old fashioned, big, 2-spoke steering wheel and it’s one of my favorite features in my GV70!
Other than the Buick LeSabre looking steering wheel. I love this car!
Question for Andrea: how do you compare the handling of Genesis GV70 2.5T to that of Mazda CX-5 Turbo?
Thank you, answered most of my questions. X3 is getting really bad reviews and that's the car I had in mind, I guess I'll get GV70
dont think its over priced?
Can’t help but wonder where the front license plate goes…the front end doesn’t have an obvious place for it.
Great video and awesome vehicle. When my Nissan Murano is ready to trade I will go for the GV70 2.5
Not everyone gets the elegant touch of the 2 spoke steering wheel styling.
Exactly, I think it looks very stylish and different, why be like everyone else.
Yes. I actually like it a lot
RDX is a glorified CRV
NX is a glorified RAV4
GV70 is from G70 which is a luxury rear drive sport sedan
Very interesting point!
Isn't this a glorified santa fe? Same engine
Great review. Begs the question, why would anyone pay so much more for German cars? The Genesis is a much better value and will likely hold its value well due to much better reliability than the current German competition.
Would you say there is a big difference in the feel of the 2.5 vs 3.5 engine?
Been watching all your vids, you guys are great!!
our daughter drove both the 3.5 and 2.5 GV80 and they took the 2.5,, didn't think the 3.5 was worth the difference. My GV70 2.5 Advanced (adriatic blue with vanilla int.) is due in next month, can't wait. Great review.
@@1jmotorman Thanks for the insight!
The steering wheel looks better in the black interior and I like the 2 spoke design because I like to hold the wheel at the 6 position on long drives. The style could be improved but I like the 2 spokes.
Same here I like holding steering wheels at 6 so for me it's amazing
Same here, I thinks it looks nice and different, why be like everyone else.
Me too...it has an ole school appeal
Good review...thanks for testing the 2.5L and not the 3.5L
Zack, you're a lucky man.
Nice review, my favorite design on a SUV... A bit disappointed on the gv60 when compared to this one. I think I'll lease this one
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the review!
The Koreans are really crushing their interiors lately.
Why didn't you include the Volvo XC60 in this comparison and can you consider doing a review on the XC60? Isn't it one step higher than the RDX or the Lexus (RAV4)? I enjoy your reviews! Thanks!
Have you done a review of the Genesis GV70e? How about the Cadillac Lyriq? Could you review those vehicles for us?
I just had a brand new 2022 Alfa Romeo stelvio. Traded it in for a 2022 gv70. Couldn’t be happier.
My car prior was a Range Rover and prior to that was a 328i. The genesis beats them all. I haven’t drive a recent bmw but I’ve sat in a few. Wasn’t impressed.
Macan 2022 or GV70 2022 2.5? For daily drive. I love both and can’t make a decision. What do you guys think?
Hopefully more ppl start taking this brand seriously. Because of the Koreans, all products have gotten better. Where do u think ur heated steering steering wheel came from in a b series hatch? As always super review. Needs more giggles. Very honest review.
Thanks glad you enjoyed it!
I hope you do a review on the GV80..
Beautiful car looks just like my cx5 GTR
Great review! Did you notice any difference in suspension from the 2.5 compared to the 3.5? Since the 2.5 doesn’t have the electronic suspension.
It does not
@@Motormouth... You mean you didn’t notice a difference?
(In the US) The only way to get the electronic suspension with road sense is in the 3.5 models.
Thanks!
@@MrBudha25 hard to tell we drove them months apart. The 2.5 without adaptive suspension was just fine
@@Motormouth... thanks for responding!
Agreed...the 2.5 rides even better with 19" wheels. I went over speed bumps in the 3.5TT and decided I was going with the 2.5T!
Like all your reviews I love this one. The only thing that I would love to see is a built in tech display. On most of the vehicles it looks like they took an iPad, layed it on the dash and leaned it against the windshield. Yes, I realize they haven't, but that's how it looks.
