Exactly the same with me Martin. The ford was 60k loaded and not far off in price from this Genesis GV80 but the Genesis had a lot better fit and finish to me and looks like a 60k SUV over the Ford. I really like the exterior styling of the Ford but the Interior was not even close and that is where we generally spend most of our time with the car.
I'm not an SUV guy, but this thing looks absolutely phenomenal. Seems like a great price for what you get. I'm sad because I know it won't convert a lot (if any) of the hardcore European-only purchasers, but I know there will be people who are smart and buy this and I will make sure to compliment them on their purchase when I see it. It's definitely one of those, if you know you know, situations. Those "lines" with the headlights and design conventions throughout just put the cherry on top. Beautiful work, Genesis!
10 years ago I would have never recommended anyone buy a Kia of Hyundai. Now I would recommend them above Honda, Toyota, and any American manufacturer except Ford. I’m finding it hard to get rid of my prejudice against them due to decades of being the bargain crappy brand, but I’m so impressed with what they’ve done lately that I think I’ll get over it. My next car will likely be a Genesis.
Based on the looks , features, and especially the cost, this has to beat the Mercedes, BMW and Audi. This will finally push the Genesis brand into real completion with the Germans. I have owned a G80 and currently own a G90 and will be anxiously awaiting the arrival of the 2021 G80 and GV80 to our dealership so I can drive them both.
Not as cheap as you might think. I spec'd one to be as close to our 2020 GLE450 as possible. It was the same price. If it was $65K vs $75K it would be a great deal, but it wasn't.
@@gwcrispi meh i did the same, GLE came out at 102k EUROS, while the equivalent GV came around the 75k mark fully loaded. if u want the GLE for the same tech you gona fork over a lot more $$$
@RpM_Evan do you realize Hyundai Group poached BMW’s lead M engineer and Audi’s lead designer back on the early 2010s to start working on the Genesis line, right? This IS a German engineered car that just so happens to be sold by a South Korean manufacturer.
The omission of piano black should be the standard for luxury cars. This is the only company making a contienious effort in doing that. Look at the new s class. Piano black on all touch surfaces. Absolutely disgusting
I’m waiting for the 2022 refresh to hit US stores. My family has always bought Ford if we want a long lasting reliable car, Acura for something sporty (3.2CL, GS-R), or Merc for luxury, and I think I’m going to be the first to buy a South Korean car lol. I love the G70’s features and numbers. I only wish the 2022 came with their newer 3.5 instead of the same 3.3.
I cant be any more satisfied with our purchase. I got the v6 AWD drivetrain for my wife. Ride quality is gloriously magnificent, does not lose to any other luxury brands in this category, feels as if I am riding through clouds instead of hard asphalt road. Inside cabin is simple and yet refined and elegant - I much prefer this over some other makers' cluttered panels. Lastly, I notice many people doing double takes of this car. I am mightily pleased with the design - those on the design team (interior as well as exterior), along with the chassis and drivetrain team definitely nailed this one. I am also looking to purchase gv70 for myself as I prefer smaller vehicle when it comes out.
@@soulfulmoodstring62 tbh it is big but for some reason it makes the car look so aggressive. I can't imagine it with a smaller grill. My favourite grill is the M5 lci grill.
I can’t even tell you how many times I paused the video to screenshot the GV80. I am just mesmerized by this car! It looks stunning inside & out & it has the color combination I love! This is the exact configuration I hope my family can get next year or in 2022 when there will be better lease deals on it by then
I don't know if they make a GV70. But wait for that model if they do. The 2022 G70 is so much more refined that the current one. They have touched up this rough first gen design and tweaked it. Looks so much better!
They absolutely nailed it with this car. I hope Genesis starts selling more cars, bc there's no telling what else they'll come up with in the future! Very cool 😎
I am a BMW fan, but Genesis is quickly winning my respect and favor. Can't wait for them to start building performance cars and also looking forward to the G70 facelift! Great review, guys!
Japan was infiltrated with American educated MBA's that are following GM's lead of nickel and diming interiors down the engineering and interior materials. Hell, all of Japan seems to have been brought down by MBA's, so Japanese anything lately seems to all be made in China to save a few yen per unit. The "specialness" is gone. I still buy Hondas though.
I own a palisade limited 2021. The vehicle has tragic build quality. Please watch videos on my channel for more details. Horrible odors comes out of through the the cabin. The roof, rattles constantly when I am driving. It is extremely anoying. There is too much plastic throughout the entire cabin of the palisade limited. Everytime I go over a bump or a rock. I could hear all the plastic in the cabin making a loud squeaking noise. My experience with the palisade has been Horrible. This is actually my second palisade. I am extremely disappointed in the build quality of the palisade. I wanted to buy the Gv80. By with my experience with the palisade. I think I will look some where else. Land Rover discovery, gle, x5, aviator, or q7.
This is one of the most beautiful SUVs out there below 100,000 dollars for sure. Cant believe how Hyundai/Kia/Genesis has stepped up its game the past two years. I just hope they do well in the electric segment too.
Well, now I have to make an appointment to look at one. I made the mistake of showing my wife this video since we're looking at replacing her kidmobile. It went immediately to the top of her list.
I just bought the Advanced Premium 3.5 Black on Black and it is visually stunning. I have had it for a few days and still learning all the controls but I will tell you it is worth every penny for the quality and luxury that you get. The looks and styling is fresh and well designed and beats the competition in my opinion. This is a beautiful luxury SUV and a head turner as people don't quite know what exactly they are seeing. It is Bentley inspired and I am enjoying it.
Watching this makes me even more excited for the GV70. Genesis is slowly making their way into a good place. (Still waiting for a Veloster N DCT review 😬)
My local dealership had one last week (it might be sold at this point). It might replace my Speed3. Just waiting to see what the twins say about it in their review
It just looks so much better than any Euro SUV (except, maybe, the Stelvio). Hyundai did a great job bringing in the right designers and actually listening to them!
That GV80 is what I believe the Infiniti JX60/QX60 should’ve eventually evolved into along with a few others on the segment. The power, detailed aesthetics, & value in Genesis products - especially the GV80 & G80 - lets me know they’re serious about what they’re bringing to market to grab their share and shake things up; I absolutely love it. With the two engine options and variety of trim levels, think it can stand in to compete and cover everything from the big boys in Europe (Benz/BMW) as well as Japan (Acura/Lexus/Infiniti).
I'm waiting for the new G70 with matte gray in Europe, i already prepared the money, hope arrive soon! I think the Genesis are ready for fight in the Europe market!
I’ve been waiting for this car to come out for months now. I think it’s one of the most beautiful suv’s on the market. Hopefully I get some at my local dealership
Just traded in my 2018 Elantra Sport for a new 2020 G70 3.3T RWD and it’s an amazing car. I love what Genesis has been doing lately and I can attest that the quality is top notch and the performance is just insane for the money!
I recently test drove 3.5 lt and I put deposit down right after. The features and build quality of this vehicle is very impressive besides the fact that its $10k-$15k cheaper than any other German brands out there in comparison.
Wondering what features will be missing on the GV70. But so far, the GV80 is my next car. Thanks for the great review. I gave you $10 on patreon, just to see this review a few weeks early.
just to let you know this company is 52 yrs old was founded 29 December 1967 I remember back in 1980 my friend Dad had Pony, they do come a long way and i'm glad to see them doing well.
Sam here - just wanted to say great job as always and keep the good work. I really like how you guys aren't just reviewing the super/sports cars but interesting additions to the market as well. One thing I would love to see y'all do is to review cars that are 2-3 years old and maybe shift your content to "older" stuff. I personally always prefer used cars to new so it would be super interesting if you start threading in information and considerations for the buyer from a "bang for your buck" perspective. Doug DeMuro does a great job at this.
Actually if you look closely both the GV80 and G80’s front is designed to look like the Genesis crest (headlights and grille) it’s so cool and original I also think they’ve done the same thing with the facelifted 2021 G70 and G90 but the G80 one is the most obvious
So frustrated with you guys complaining about AA widescreen. You can enable it forever! It's in the Android Auto Developer Settings. Open AA, hit the hamburger button top-left, then About. At the bottom tap "version and permission info" about 10 times or so and follow the prompts. Then you can use the overflow menu at the top-right to get to Developer Settings. Then in Developer Settings scroll down to video resolution and Allow up to 720 or 1080. Voila, widescreen on every car infotainment!
The transition in the 16th minute between the Bentley and the genesis got me like "haaaaa!!" and I had to rewind, props to the editor!! It was smoooooooth
Honestly, I'd buy this over anything else in this class because I can imagine this will be leagues better in reliability. It's stunning inside and out 🤩
why would you think its more reliable ... Its a turbo 6 cylinder , and hyundai kia genesis turbo engines light on fire. Theirs a reason people dont buy these. They cost 80k .... You can get a X5 or GLE for the same price and since most people who get suv's like this are leasing them . The people that have the money to lease an suv like this , dont get these because they are not as good as the germans.
I have been following your channel for years now and I really like it. One advice to you guys is that instead of focusing too much on rewind satellite radio if you could review the overall audio quality of the vehicle, it would make much more sense. People are definitely more concerned about the audio experience of the vehicle than whether it has rewind satellite radio or not.
Yeaaaah! GV80 is amazing! Thank you for the review 💚 I think you guys missed with the sticker prices, 85000cad isn't 79950 USD, it's more like 65700 USD
Genesis is stunning cars to be honest with you, I've always been a fan of BMW mostly, but these gives Merc higher end S-level cars to run for their money. I'm eager to test drive one of those.
You know....the reason you guys are succeeding so well is cause you guys post "Reviews" of a LOT of exotic cars while other channels are not ....most of them keep posting drag races and stuff...which is very fun btw, but I'd still pick a well written review
Comparable GLE is at least $75K (US) and GV80 is only $65K! If you have an extra $10K sitting around and you must have that badge (it better be diamond-encrusted BTW), go for it!

I recently test drove 3.5 lt and I put deposit down right after. The features and build quality of this vehicle is very impressive besides the fact that its $10k-$15k cheaper than any other German brands out there in comparison.
Wondering what features will be missing on the GV70. But so far, the GV80 is my next car.
Thanks for the great review. I gave you $10 on patreon, just to see this review a few weeks early.
I knew Genesis was killing it and would blow it out of the water when they made and SUV but holy cow....stunning!!!
This SUV is gorgeous. Except that steering wheel.
20:55 GV80 Canadian Edition
Dude looks-wise is amazing. Wow well done for Genesis.
BMW’s rotary wheel is also a touchpad. You can write numbers and letters on it.
Wow, I really liked the review of the GV80 and I agreed with most of the points.
wow you guys liked a Fake account.
To believe that this is the same company 20 years ago was a laughing stock is mind boggling.
Even 10 years ago
They’re still a laughing stock.. don’t be fooled by shiny sheet metal. In the engineering and R&D side, they’re still trash.
Right
@@MrCYChung they're now among the most reliable companies according to consumer reports and jd power. Take off your blinders
just to let you know this company is 52 yrs old was founded 29 December 1967 I remember back in 1980 my friend Dad had Pony, they do come a long way and i'm glad to see them doing well.
I've had a 3.5T Prestige on order for a few months now. I rewatched your video and got myself AMPED up
Sam here - just wanted to say great job as always and keep the good work. I really like how you guys aren't just reviewing the super/sports cars but interesting additions to the market as well.
One thing I would love to see y'all do is to review cars that are 2-3 years old and maybe shift your content to "older" stuff. I personally always prefer used cars to new so it would be super interesting if you start threading in information and considerations for the buyer from a "bang for your buck" perspective.
Doug DeMuro does a great job at this.
Now this is a masterpiece
9:27 There's always that one Ontario driver without their lights on during the night!
16:42 made me sit back in my chair with how much this thing actually does favor the Bentayga. Honestly looks better imo.
Actually if you look closely both the GV80 and G80’s front is designed to look like the Genesis crest (headlights and grille) it’s so cool and original I also think they’ve done the same thing with the facelifted 2021 G70 and G90 but the G80 one is the most obvious
Same designer as bentayga
So frustrated with you guys complaining about AA widescreen. You can enable it forever! It's in the Android Auto Developer Settings. Open AA, hit the hamburger button top-left, then About. At the bottom tap "version and permission info" about 10 times or so and follow the prompts. Then you can use the overflow menu at the top-right to get to Developer Settings. Then in Developer Settings scroll down to video resolution and Allow up to 720 or 1080. Voila, widescreen on every car infotainment!
The transition in the 16th minute between the Bentley and the genesis got me like "haaaaa!!" and I had to rewind, props to the editor!! It was smoooooooth
I really don't like SUV's, but that thing looks sooo good!!!!
Honestly, I'd buy this over anything else in this class because I can imagine this will be leagues better in reliability. It's stunning inside and out 🤩
why would you think its more reliable ... Its a turbo 6 cylinder , and hyundai kia genesis turbo engines light on fire. Theirs a reason people dont buy these. They cost 80k .... You can get a X5 or GLE for the same price and since most people who get suv's like this are leasing them . The people that have the money to lease an suv like this , dont get these because they are not as good as the germans.
Thought about buying the Mercedes GLE here in india but this is going to launch in a few months for 40% less price... Surely will go for this
Yeah right, you're probably not worth over a million USD
No you won’t.
@@superdestrier9160 what can you buy?
@@superdestrier9160 hmm idk man atleast he doesnt have a 'good comment section' playlist.
This is by far the best GV80 review on the internet.
Tbh, i haven't watched a single bad review about this brand.
Looking forward on buying a car from genesis soon.
I like it a lot. It doesn’t look stupid and basic.
“Bentley bentayga on a budget” please put some respect on genesis.
Contrary to others, I love the back of the car. It reminds me Aston Martin db9 which I love!
I have been following your channel for years now and I really like it. One advice to you guys is that instead of focusing too much on rewind satellite radio if you could review the overall audio quality of the vehicle, it would make much more sense. People are definitely more concerned about the audio experience of the vehicle than whether it has rewind satellite radio or not.
I've always been a bit of a Korean brand skeptic but this SUV looks great and their reliability record is spotless. Pretty impressive!
Yeaaaah! GV80 is amazing! Thank you for the review 💚 I think you guys missed with the sticker prices, 85000cad isn't 79950 USD, it's more like 65700 USD
Genesis is stunning cars to be honest with you, I've always been a fan of BMW mostly, but these gives Merc higher end S-level cars to run for their money. I'm eager to test drive one of those.
Nice interior shots! The close-ups and pans really show off the quality.
You know....the reason you guys are succeeding so well is cause you guys post "Reviews" of a LOT of exotic cars while other channels are not ....most of them keep posting drag races and stuff...which is very fun btw, but I'd still pick a well written review
Your review is real and unbiased.. I’ll look at the other suv you mentioned as well.
That engine sound is satisfyingly galactic 🌌 same as the Stinger GT 😍
COOLED SEATS IN THE BACK IM IN
The ambient lighting in the footwell makes it look like a pub or a strip club
Thankfully, the light color is customizable to something less garish.
I don’t know why but only Mercedes manages to make good ambient lightning
Comparable GLE is at least $75K (US) and GV80 is only $65K! If you have an extra $10K sitting around and you must have that badge (it better be diamond-encrusted BTW), go for it!
Happy that a luxury car brand is actually focusing on comfort over sport, hopefully others will follow the trend
21:00 that leaf on the front grill was hanging on for dear life !! 🍁 😂
🍁 got yeeted 😂
I've been waiting for this!
Me too
So stupid you guys had to embargo this for longer, by far the best review I've seen on it! Don't worry too much, the industry isn't much better here in Aus ;) ...
Oh wait, unless of course you have a dying magazine then its G
The styling of the genesis brand lately has been top notch
