Honestly that interior looks supreme.
Except the steering wheel
@@georgeskanderbeg3242
The steering wheel is the main thing I was talking about. To me it looks great.
@@georgeskanderbeg3242the new steering wheel is much better
Too bad new updated interior looks more generic
It'll look gross after a year.
Im on my Third Genesis Now. Had a 2013 v8 when they were still Hyundai. Then got a 2018 G80 with the 5.0v8 and now own a 2022 G70 3.3T. I had the 2013 till 156k miles and traded it in for the 2018 and put 125k Miles on it before i traded it in for the G70 after 125k Miles. Both cars were vewry solid, no rattles or major mechanical issues. The G70 so far at 35k miles has been super solid. Great cars BUT the big issue with Genesis has been the dealers. I dont have standalone genesis in my area just a bunch of Hyundai dealer with Genesis Service and it just not the same. The quality of the work and service in general is not on par with any other luxury brand. Luckly for me i havent had to use them for any major issues other than replacing some cosmetic items and even thoses items i received some pushback on. Awesome cars though.
u have a 2022 g70 and agree with everything
How did the 5.0v8 compare to the 3.3T? Currently shopping for a slightly used Hyundai/Kia/Genesis sedan and wondered how the engines compared regarding performance, smoothness and reliability.
Thank you.
@@mikedownload4029 go with the v8. Less maintenance , you can run regular 87, and it's going to be more reliable .
why would you trade in a car and not sell it yourself privately? If you traded 2 cars you probably lost about $3500 by trading instead of selling it your self
Have a 2021 prestige for 3 years. Never had one repair and it’s time to turn it in and order a 2025. Extremely reliable vehicle. And my local dealer in Toledo is awesome.
amazing car
You have quickly become one of my favorite TH-camrs, your videos are so relaxing and it just feels like I’m on a drive with a good friend. I love it when you say “since most people have tuned out…” it makes me it feel like the next thing you say is kind of exclusive 😂
Good heavens that road looks like a moonscape.
Pure Michigan 😂
It's despicable that they no longer have the dark green/brown interior anymore. That was the best spec with the matte green paint a couple of years ago! I'm hoping the coupe can get the two seat 2nd row configuration as an option, but I doubt it will.
They have the dune interior now
I purchased the Prestige Signature collection in the GV80 w/ Matterhorn Matte White finish... looks great and what a great ride w/ super nice features!
I agree with the steering weight, it's probably a little heavier than it needs to be, especially in parking lots.
When I drive my wife's car, I sometimes throw the steering wheel cuz I'm used to my gv70.
My dad owns a 2024 Genesis GV80 with the 3.5. I can believe the 14.5 mpg we get about the same around town and maybe 20 on the highway.
Dang I get those mpg out of my 4.6 litre V8 in my GX 460.
I love the sedans, and have one. But this suv is their best looking vehicle ever, hands down! One of the best looking suv’s on the market, period
Just look at it, all the options and still $8,000 cheaper than comparable bmw, and much more reliable than bmw LOL, I know cause I had X5 and took dump load of money on maintenance and repairs, I wasn’t car guy then. Now I know the secret to own a luxurious suv without spending unnecessary money, Oh what a feeling Genesis !
Yeah another peasant who can’t afford a bimmer
Would love to own a Genesis G80 one day. Im going to college now and will probably roll with a civic for the next 10 years until college is finished and the loans are paid.
Buying a good used car in canada can be challenging cuz of all that salt lol
@timvlogtv512 You can have anything you want. Earnest desire and belief will make it yours. And it won’t take ten years. Godspeed.
Not that my opinion means anything, but I’m happy to hear you stick with a Honda. One of the best feelings is having a car with low maintenance costs; especially in college. When you get your G80 one day it’ll just feel that much better after waiting for it for the right moment.
Tuco : "tight tight tight!"
I recently test drove one of these and frankly, it feels better than a Bentayga. The interior rivals any Bentley or other high line SVU.
You're high.
@@LimaKilo-mt5rk I've owned a Bentley and I've driven this car. 🤷♀
Absolutely love what Hyundai is doing with Genesis from design and marketing perspektive. Unfortunately there are only a few "used" ones on the German market available yet. A bit to expensive imo but nobody's paying the list price!
Yes I often wonder these things about many cars including this one, thanks for allowing people like me to have a nice POV of nice cars since I can’t afford them. 😅
I see they pulled the steering wheel design from 1983....
I love this interior way more than the GV80Coupe
I love Genesis and my next car will be a GV70 or GV80 but it makes me laugh that the turn signal sound is the exact same as my 2015 Sonata.
Excellent video mate... it would've been great to see the gears that the car is opting on the dash to understand the tractibility factor (since 4k videos allow for great zoom-ins)
My dream vehicle! But, I DO have wireless Apple CarPlay in my 2023 Honda CR-V Hybrid. I so love it.
Got an adapter for $50 and it connects instantly
I have a 2.5t 2021 getting 23 mpg mixed driving and seems to have plenty of power. Very happy with it
I like looking at the stats and pricing in the bio! Bring that back bro!
Genesis needs to make a GV90
GV80 is a very good vehicle
That paint color is awesome
I would like to see a luxurious three row Genesis GV90 on the market 🔥🙌🏾 hope they make one soon!
My exact car. I have this exact car and love it.
Great video man, still never driven a Genesis yet. What camera do you use to get these style of videos?
The cameras are really best suited for city driving. Hear me out. A biker or pedestrian is in a divided bike lane that you're turning into, and on an initial blind spot check you didn't observe anyone, but this biker is on an e-bike and they are zooming, and as you start turning you finally start to see the glimpse of a helmet in the camera so you slam the brakes. The camera system has just successfully prevented a collision with a biker now as you turn into a parking lot or highway entrance.
This was a much-needed pick-me-up, thank you!
for 80+k price range, I would go for LX600 where I will have both luxury and off-roading capabilities.
No you wouldn’t. And indeed you really shouldn’t. The lx600 is a much much worse vehicle than the gv80 in every imaginable way
genesis is very nice car
I know this has nothing to do with the Genesis (which you did a great pov review) but i really want to see one of the x1 m35i here, i think you will like it
You surely convinced me to seriously consider to purchase GV80
i always turn blinkers on first before i check blind spots. Don't you need to let others know your intent first?
Air suspension? Sounds a little noisy over those expansion joints?
The matte paint is not required. Only green comes in matte. The rest are standard finish.
I like his review style
The steering wheel looks like a 1980’s minivan wheel
I like it! Lots of people comment though
I had a choice between so many other luxury cars but genesis has always had my heart in design(though most of there designs are somewhat inspired by other manufacturers). I chose to buy a 2018 G80 Ultimate simply because of its old-money vibe, the price, and the quality you get for not breaking too much of the bank. Its a great riding car for times I had to visit my mom 2 hours away or just a road trip in general. I got my eyes on this car next so hopefully the price will be much lower in the user car market.
To me Asian and American cars seem to have a slightly lower definition of luxury.
It's as if they're trying, but they don't quite understand the concept.
@@sandersson2813 Are there any cars I should look at that defines luxury in a better sense? My G80 is my first luxury car but I've sat in a few lexus and BMWs and man, those cars are nice. I'm just afraid of the maintenance cost of the BMWs,lol.
It's looks premium with luxury touches.
🔍that’s a nice sedan deville in the back there at the shop. The GV-80 definitely is cool. Wonder how the design will age, but so far seems pretty good. Hope they can keep it coming and just get their MPG better on their vehicles.
that looks like a great car but unfortunately i will combust if i see another luxury suv on the road. please give us station wagons car lords.
I agree, hate SUV's. Car's are so much more fun to drive and look way way better.
25:51 It's cool that the display turns into a mirror.
Best Asian luxury suv full stop
I'll rather get a Lexus.
@@felipin.el.detailerno you wouldn’t 😂. And indeed you shouldn’t
Lexus is not luxury. Enjoy your dressed up RAV4 while genesis is a real luxury car with proper luxury car underpinnings that dont constantly remind you that it’s just a fancy Hyundai Elantra or tuscon
@@naveenthemachineSeriously doubt you’ve spent significant time in either an RX or GX otherwise you wouldn’t be saying this. lol your opinion is irrelevant.
@@soccer73985 I’ve driven an RX lol. It was quiet I’ll give you that but it just reminded me too much of a Camry. After all the RX is just a gussied up Camry on stilts
The new gx seems decent though. I’ll have to drive one to see but the RX I did drive and I was far from impressed
@@soccer73985 Lexus is overrated
genesis should release a sport car again. Genesis coupe was such a great car
As an owner of a 2023 GV80 Prestige, I always felt that it ‘felt’ heavy & a bit lethargic off a red light. Did you feel that? Something to do with the throttle tuning in 1 & second gears. Once it rolling, then it will just fly. But from a standstill, it always felt slow to start. Wish it had an electric motor hybrid to help with the initial startup torque.
Also wish it had bigger bottle holders on the doors and wireless carplay.
Having said that, the interior and exterior is such a timeless design! I just couldn’t bring myself to consider any other vehicle once I sat in the GV80. Everything else felt lower grade. And the Germans / Swedish spooked me with their reliability concerns long term.
I think its mainly due to the turbo lag. I feel the same thing in my G70.
@@pkoya341 I think you are right. It must be the turbo lag. This is my first turbo engine vehicle.
I think it's more to do with the transmission mapping software, they tend to rev more than they should than use that torque to make a smoother experience, hence rev goes high you tend to feel that it's heavy.... I had same experience with both Genesis and KIA with V6 engines....
The new supercharged supported engines have more low rev personality where they feel strong
Yep, it is the turbo lag. My Audi Q5 is the same way. There are some ecu tunes available for the GV80 to reduce the issue though, as well as a performance boost if it's something you're interested in.
@@RBBBBBBBBB533I can confirm this, I had the '21 Forte GT with 7spd dry DCT. I hated that thing so much and had the transmission replaced at 8,899 miles.
That steering wheel just screams Chrysler 300 to me.
I don't know the performance, but the design is great.
It's not trying to be sporty, it's trying to be comfortable and luxurious, the GV80 for an SUV actually handles really well, but it's not like a X5 M60i performance oriented SUV, it's still a luxury vehicle.
5:45 It reminds me of a Maybach 57. '04 Rich at its finest.
That steering wheel two tone leather is the same as Calligraphy Beige Palisade
Many people in the comments say that the steering wheel is not beautiful. But what's really confusing is the small screen in 2024
Genesis is my fav lux brand now I hope they make a new coupe
engine note, backward tach, steering wheel.... there are some odd design and engine note choices. I'd stick with the 4 banger, swap out the steering wheel and live with the silly tach. But loading these up with options seems like a bad idea.
Kinda weird that the space between the backseats isnt closed to the trunkarea
the tach being mirrored threw me. seems like the bumps are noisy (have headphones on)
No spare in an $80k car is wild. Brown interior > this color
Genesis uses the same company as BMW for their transmission.
They don’t. Genesis makes their own 8 speed transmission in house. They don’t use ZF for their transmissions
Love your videos. When can we expect a 2024 ford ranger video?
I hate that steering wheel design. Why is the airbag pod so big? Looks like something from early 90's.
As long as it looks like the screen was an afterthought tacked onto the dash and not integrated into the dash, I will not be buy these. Even though I really want one. I hope Genesis can figure it out.
@ 13:00 And the Lexus TX looks like a bloated Forester. Couldn't be any uglier. The Lexus TX is NOWHERE near this Genesis on anything and it is embarrassing. A rearview mirror camera and wireless carplay DOES NOT make up for the cheap and awful CAMRY like underpinnings of the TX.
Agreed. I knew the tx was going to be dead on arrival. Yet everyone called me the internets biggest Toyota hater
Dude a Camry will last forever, not the Genisis. Lexus is about quality that lasts, you can run those things 200k-300k easily. Can't with a Gensis. And when you run a car that long means you have NO car payments. What a genius Ideas, being smart with ones money instead of pissing it away on a car that loses it's value.
@@guitarexpert2245 Oh really, then how come the Lexus LS500 and the Toyota Tundra have had so many issues with their twin turbo engine? Failures at less than 20,000 miles and you're talking about quality that "supposedly" lasts? Look them up in the Toyota and Lexus forums if you don't believe me. Toyota is not the same company from 30 years ago.
Nice truck ❤
The Prestige is a bit expensive at 83k. Better off getting the lesser model for a 10-15k less.
I love the interior and the technology it offers, but there's just something about the exterior that doesn't make it the perfect suv. Im not sure if its the back of the vehicle or what.
Very nice car. However, I thought under acceleration it sounded rather harsh and noisy which shouldn't be the case in an $80k+ car. For that kind of money it should be a bit more refined.
You’re right - why does the mache interior look so dated so quickly?
What is up with the two red lights that come on/off every once in a while on the instrument cluster right below the top of the steering wheel?
Eye sensors
I eat those fig bars too. Yummy. Good video.
is it just me or are the turn signals really slow? i notice it most when i see them irl
Genesis looks great... just hope you don't have to warranty anything with Kia.
Is it possible to be an executive in corporate America without an executive car?
yeah just like how aston martin copied Bentley, and how Chrysler copied bentley logo
75-80mph might affect the mpg!
steering wheels looks painful to hold, there is like no space to put ur fingers. You cant really hold it on 9 or 3
Too bad Genesis borrowed the steering wheel from a 2002 Buick LeSabre. Would be a gorgeous interior if they replaced that hideous wheel with sayyyy...the GV70 sport steering wheel??
Cadillac vibe.
The problem with the Hundai turbo V6 is that it gets about as good of gas mileage, in the real world, as the BMW twin turbo V8 -- which is to say, deplorable.
This car doesn't cost 82 grand.
Maybe if it would be 20 grand less.
The quilted seats are supposed to look premium but it ends up looking real cheap. Japanese and Germans know how to do interiors. Koreans are still in training.
Germans yes but Japanese not even close 😂
You know nothing. Be quiet
HM... I think i saw this park in other video on other channel
I swear some companies!!! 83000 dollars and no spare tire!!
Yep but for $300 you can put one under the rear cover. There’s a spot for it. Should be there already!!
id consider it if it had a better looking steering wheel!
I must be old. Wheel doesn’t bug me
No spare tire,..no 3rd row seating? Why?
Too small for third row IMO. Spot for a spare which I got from EZ Spare for a few hundred bucks under rear floor
The car gives you a no need to work or at least no need to do morning commute vibe. But…….
very nice
why would anyone buy a Hyundi? They start to poop out at around 60k. Lots have engine problems earlier than that.
loud at hyw speeds
Would the dog like riding in one?
The exterior design does not look good to me, especially from behind and sides. The grille looks decent.
$82k CAD or USD?
Leg roam is just enough. Compact SUV?
2021 legroom front and back is good
I would be really impressed if the price was 30% lower.
Inflation 😂
It’s a shame you live in such an automotive wasteland. Hard to get all the cars that anybody cares about. I.e. everything not s garbage motors or frod.
These GV’s are gorgeous. See em all over the place and I am envious.
you can get in in Korea for $30K.
This would be the perfect luxury family SUV, once they hide that bloody wiper blade away
2021 wipers are hidden
Wtb timestamps
Video quality is top... but something make me stop. you are moving your head very quickly and too often
This interior just called me poor
no camaro content?
