I purchased a 2019 Genesis G70 3.3T April 2019. Currently I have over 145k miles on it. So far. Only scheduled maintenance , set of brakes and a couple of set of tires. What I find funny, Genesis Haters are watching this video, so they can complain. You gotta be very lonely to watch a video of a car company that you claim to hate!
One of the main negatives of Genesis is that is loses it's value very fast and the resale value is atrocious. For example, a 2023 GV70 that had a sticker price of about 62k is now fetching barely 33k with just 15k miles on it.
@@timbatee7433mostly every car loses value as soon as you drive it off the lot. Buying cars for their potential resale value is not a very good investment 😅
The people that put these cars down have never sat in or driven one. Compared to my (CLS) AMG I felt that the interior was on par, if not better. The ride and handling on it was quite impressive. When I was looking at one I felt the 4 cylinder was the better option. Better efficiency and felt plenty fine.
I'm in the same boat. People put Genesis down never even saw one up close. I drove a Porsche Cayanne, 6 hour a day for a week in it a few months ago. Although it has a fun engine and sexy lines, it was so not worth the money. I could see where they skimped on quality, and it felt underwhelming when you take a closer look at the panels and materials used. The control panels were a mess too. It's all about the brand flexing it seems. Genesis had way better tech especially the camera and sensor systems. Personally, I own a Genesis and it was way more comfortable and felt better to daily as an SUV. I get the appeal of the Porsche as "performance" but if I am paying that kind of money, I expected a better product. It's a waste of money when one can't even use all that power and "sportiness" 90% of the time, for anyone who is cross shopping.
I passed on BMW for a Genesis. I’ve driven Mercedes for the past 16 years. Drove Lexus and MINI before that. Wanted something different. Checked out BMW. No way! BMW interiors are cheap looking and feeling. I recently purchased a 2025 Genesis GV70 2.5T Sport Prestige with Sevilla Red leather interior and Savile silver exterior. So gorgeous. So luxurious. So quiet and smooth. Much nicer than my 2019 Mercedes GLC 300 and much nicer that the brand new GLC 300. I don’t regret choosing Genesis one bit. Also, unlike BMW and Mercedes, there aren’t many Genesis GV70s on the road. It’s turning heads and garnering lots of compliments. What a fresh and fun luxury experience. I couldn’t be happier overall.
They did a great job. This is how you truly compete. This is real effort. Just taking a car and changing logos doesn’t automatically make it nicer than their mainstream counterparts Hyundai and Genesis care about luxury and they want to truly compete All the haters are about to get a wake up call
I've owned countless German cars. But I've also bought 6 Genesis SUVs in the past few years. Genesis is a serious luxury brand. It doesn't have the performance of my previous AMG and RS cars, but that's clearly not what they're going for with the current lineup. I would take a GV80 Coupe over the equivalent German offering without any hesitation.
I owned a 93 excel, and now a 24 santafe hybrid limited. I owned a lot of cars between the two.. Most recently was a lexus, never in my life would think i'd say this, but the santafe is WAY nicer than the lexus was. Both material quality, and reliability. I hate the safety features, and the screen while cool looking is stupid because anyone who has hands won't be able to see the speedo.. But.. those ripping on the genesis, if it rides even quieter than the hyundai, it would be a win..
Hi! I should have clarified. I like keeping the phone out of sight so my vehicle is less likely to be broken into after I’ve foolishly abandoned my phone there.
Around a second slower than MB and BMW's 6 cylinders with worse gas mileage. Is anyone else surprised that the Koreans are unable to catch up with one the other or both? At least the Japanese competition beats them in gas mileage. This is worse in both!
Everyone talks about how they feel and drive now. The question is, is their build quality and design quality to last 7 - 8 years and still feel like they do today? There is no way I'd put out $80K on a Genesis, just too many unknowns for long term durability, reliability and quality. Also, how have these been doing in crash testing, specifically the minor and moderate overlap crash tests?
As always though, Genesis needs to hybridize their lineup. The fuel economy on all their cars is atrocious. I know that fuel economy isn’t likely something people buying luxury SUVs care about, but I personally would like to have an alternative to Lexus if I was in the market for a luxury hybrid SUV.
Genesis has nice bells and whistles to attract buyers who don't know much about car performance. At a price point par with other proven luxury brands, there is no competition. If Genesis was $15K to $20K under BMW, Mercedes or Audi, then maybe.
2025 Genesis GV80 Coupe (and with e-Supercharger engine) This IS cool!. 👍🏻👌🏼😎 I hope there will be an even more powerful 3.3 liter or 3.5 liter (420-440 hp) twin e-Supercharger, equipped with (two) electric superchargers. 🤔
7-8 years ago I see a lot of Genesis cars and Suvs on the road, fast forward today I barely see one anymore. Hyundai dealership near my house stop selling and servicing genesis, guess between the price, barely a name recognition, and reliability has caused their downfall.
From the BMW crowd here. Nobody aspires to drive a Hyundai. Update: Lots of great news stories this morning about paint coming off late model Hyundais in sheets when it rains. High quality stuff! 😂
Is a Lexus LC 500 just a $100k jazzed up Toyota? Is an Acura NSX just a $170k Honda? An Audi RS7 a 130k VW? Why is it that only Genesis is a jazzed up Hyundai?

You answered my biggest question for Genesis. I was hearing people say they don’t hold up. Thank you.
That GV80 is just a piece of art !!
This car looks glorious. If only this is available is more markets. Come on Genesis.

I am so glad there's at least *one* reviewer who rates the armrests! I am a bit of an armrest snob.😤 Thank you.
Evies's sense of humor is so sharp. Priceless. Zing. Zing. 🎾
As a current 23 GV70 owner I'm looking forward to getting this coupe in probably that same color. Greatjob doing this review guys. 👍🏾
Fantastic review guys!😸
I love it my dream car
The innuendo was wild this episode lol.
Don’t knock Genesis until you sit and drive in one
Sassy Sunday ! Luxury,tech and fast ⛽️

I hate all these silly car companies calling these SUVs coupe. A coupe by definition is a two door. Not four door SUV. Duh
exactly it has 5 doors

1:10 Just started the video and I'm already having my jar dropping 😂😂
Interior colors sponsored by Delta!
Thanks for the upload!
Hyundai trying to give their drivers the D wheel
Looks fantastic. I’d even say it has far too much bright exterior trim and it still looks fantastic.
This is a very nice Genesis love how Hyundai has this luxury version and looks very nice love the family reviews
My Ioniq Hybrid has a D shaped wheel, I experience the D on a daily basis.
1:38 this seems like an odd comment. There’s a hidden phone compartment - wouldn’t that lead to forgetting the phone more often in the car?
Hi! I should have clarified. I like keeping the phone out of sight so my vehicle is less likely to be broken into after I’ve foolishly abandoned my phone there.
I like the previous interiors better. The one big screen is less unique
I like the styling
FAMILY is HAPPINESS! 🙂
I have a 23 ...no issues. very satisfied with the car. they do lose value quick tho.

Who cares about fuel economy at this point?
No one in their right mind would run head first to a luxury car dealer for fuel economy
Would this be equivalent to the Hyundai Tucson or Santa Fe?
No genesis doesn’t share anything with lesser Hyundais
@ ooh ok, I thought it was the same like Lexus and Toyota
It would be the equivalent to the Santa Fe in terms of size, minus the coupe styling.
@@Xyy2387 thank you 😊

It definitely needs a rear wiper. Otherwise, it looks very nice.

It’s nice but worth about $65K in my opinion. These SUVs are costing way more than the average American make to afford it.🎉
Why does the horn sound chintzy to me?
That metallic "carbon fiber" vibe is an abomination.... otherwise, I like that thing.
These look kinda weird in person 😬
gv80 coupe compete with bmw x6 x5 audi q8 benz gle coupe lexus rx
Korean Banana Milk 😂
Hmm, don't care for the dashboard 🤔
3:05 a beauty! Wow
In 2027, the 2025 edition will be had for a good deal! Don't buy new 😂
I think you can no long note not an expert for your wife or even daughter - they have been in far more cars than most people.
that’s a 5 door crossover not a coupe. it’s a hyundai genesis no one wants
From the BMW crowd here. Nobody aspires to drive a Hyundai. Update: Lots of great news stories this morning about paint coming off late model Hyundais in sheets when it rains. High quality stuff! 😂
its because badge snobs are so insecure that they have to compensate to get approval from people who don't care about you.
From all of the luxury crowd. Hyundai did well with the Genesis and declared it a luxury brand. That's not how it works, Hyundai.
cope harder
@ Buy some Hyundai stock if you believe in this bet they are making. I dare you.
@@edhcb9359 ooh a dare! ooooh! better bet than german brands tell you that much. cope more.
I’m not interested in paying $86K for a jazzed up Hyundai.
This isn’t based on any other Hyundai or Kia. It’s a bespoke RWD platform.
Is a Lexus LC 500 just a $100k jazzed up Toyota? Is an Acura NSX just a $170k Honda? An Audi RS7 a 130k VW? Why is it that only Genesis is a jazzed up Hyundai?
Look everyone. The year one grandpa is back 😂
Then don't buy one. Wtf are you even here? Go blow Ford or whatever the fuxk you drive.
Apparently you know nothing about cars, your comment makes you look stupid
