We just bought a GV70! It drives better than my Audi. So comfortable too. We have most of the upgrades you mentioned. This car delivers high quality without the high prices of a BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Porsche and other comparable cars. We are so happy to have it. Thank you for your podcast.
Excellent review. I have 2022 GV80 2022 model white color. It comes with free maintenance deal for 5 years or 100000 km which comes first. I can say after 2 years usage the car is great 👍🏻
Congrats! I am the Commercial Account Manager at our Ford store, and we also own the Genesis dealership. The trade in's we are getting on these Genesis cars and SUVs are crazy. Porsche's like yours, the First Edition Bronco I reviewed, Range Rovers, you name it! Their used car lot is like a luxury dealership!
I saw this car in some dark color going down a freeway for about 20 minutes... couldn't stop staring at it. It looked like a high-end Audi; so cool that it had it's own design language.
Just got a brand new GV80 and it's amazing. Little odd that a 2024 luxury vehicle doesn't come with USB Type-C ports and no wireless Android/Apple car play. but those are just very minor things. Other than that, beautiful!
Hey Mig, thanks for watching! I appreciate your feedback! I didn't think the 22's made it rough, everything was so quiet and smooth it didn't make me think the wheels were an issue. The 2023 Genesis GV80 DOES have Apple CarPlay, FYI!
@@CarTalkwithZak Unfortunately it's not wireless. Clearly a downer for a luxury brand. I also wish the homelink garage door feature worked with the power off. Otherwise a fantastic SUV. Love my 2023 Prestige.
@@CarTalkwithZak oh, no doubt. I think it's the best looking vehicle in the class in my opinion. It has adequate power but just no hybrid or electrified options unless I missed it.
I own a mercedes. I look forward to my next purchase being a Hyundai / Kia product, my nephew has a Kia Forte GT and it drives STUNNINGLY BETTER than my Mercedes - I was shocked, still am shocked just thinking about it.
I am the Commercial Account Manager for Laird Noller Ford. Laird Noller also sells Mazda, Hyundai, and Genesis. So I have access to all four brands plus preowned inventory for Car Talk with Zak. Otherwise, I don't get paid by Laird Noller or Genesis, or any other manufacturer for that matter, for my opinion. :)
Is the tach going counter clockwise? LOL It couldn't be running that high for the speed. -:/ I'm a Lexus fan and I think this is what a Lexus should be like. The newer generation RX, the way the tablet-style screen is placed on the dash just does not look right. But on the Genesis, it looks just right.
Ppl love to throw the term Hyundai out there like it just wins the argument or something. Hyundai themselves are doos cars, especially now they're way out front in terms of design and forward thinking etc. Genesis is even above that. There was a time when ppl just "couldn't get behind Audi" "couldn't get behind Lexus." That take is basically cute at this point.
I’m sorry but reliability doesn’t matter. Every cars reliable for 5 years since that’s how long people keep these cars. Plus most luxury cars are LEASED. Plus this looks Bentley esque. Looks way more attractive than the Lexus rx
The ONLY luxury brand offering a 10yr/100k miles warranty so you can rest easy. Also the best value for your money with the most standard features and it’s up to par with your Audi, Mercedes, BMW, Porsche etc if not better for what you get. You’re stuck on the brand name game from 15 yrs ago but times have changed. Fun fact; The head designers and engineers of Genesis come from BMW, Audi so you literally don’t have an argument. You can google it. Haha!
I'll take a Cadillac Ct5 V anytime over this . The grill on the car looks cheap. They clame the 10 year warranty because they know their cars fail. I know someone whose engine failed at 90,000 miles and another the Trans had to be replaced. Again, why should I give money to korea.
@@sublimegreen I can recalled that Cadillac engine shutdowns once it rolls out the lot. The Genesis has better reliability than Cadillac, that's for sure. I know you can troll on here, but what you said is totally false about Genesis.
First , of all don't even compare the elegance power, refinement to Hyunday , cause that what your car is. I have to friends that bought Hyundai products an one engine failed and the Trans had to be replaced. I am into design... and I stand with my belief, that grill is cheap! Good buy troll!

The Hyundai Group is in the top 5 of JD Power Associates Quality. AMAZING
Bought me a 2022 gv80 and I think it will take me a year to learn all the technology it has. I just love it.
Can’t wait until Monday. Getting this car in Blue with the advanced and prestige package
You are going to love it! Congrats!
Just got ours, it's amazing so far. Traded our 2020 porsche panamera for it. Maybe not as fast, but blows it out of the water in every other category.

Its actually designed by former Bentley Engineers. So you can see the looks matches to Bentley Bentayaga!

Great video. Can’t wait to purchase the 2025 model this summer.
Great review and stunning suv. Two questions, 1. do the 22s make it a rougher ride? 2. Doesn't not having wireless apple car play seem weird for 2023?

@@michaelbeaugrand9338, congrats on your new GV80! Thanks for clarifying, I was mistaken.
I had no idea this sounded so good at idle! My next vehicle will be a GV70 or 80.
It's a helluva offering. What it lacks is the power train options that it's competitors offer.
That's true. If you want power, I agree. But the total purchase proposition otherwise looks pretty good for Genesis!
@@CarTalkwithZak oh, no doubt. I think it's the best looking vehicle in the class in my opinion. It has adequate power but just no hybrid or electrified options unless I missed it.
It has more than enough power. Certainly a lot more than a Lexus RX
@@naveenthemachine I didn't say it needed more power. I said it lacked power train options.
@@tri3pleagent two powertrains are enough especially when a base powertrain has over 300hp
I own a mercedes. I look forward to my next purchase being a Hyundai / Kia product, my nephew has a Kia Forte GT and it drives STUNNINGLY BETTER than my Mercedes - I was shocked, still am shocked just thinking about it.
Thanks for sharing! They really are killing it with high quality, and design!
Anything runs better than a merc
Who do you work for and what is their connection to Genesis?? You quickly slid that in. Not very transparent.

Yea it’s the best non German suv you can buy in this class.
Agreed.
Gorgeous🚘🚗
Is this Savile Silver or Himalayan Gray?
If it hadn't sold, I would go check for you! But, it's long gone. :)
I just bought a 2024 GV80. I have purchased 8 new Mercedes over the years. My GV80 is superior to any of them.

Yes, you are correct! 😂 and I agree with you 💯!
Go Chiefs ❤❤❤❤! Great 👍 Review
Thank you!
You’re so annoying with the beautiful, stunning
Then move right along.
Just can’t get behind Hyundai
To each his own. But I’m telling you, they are impressive!

Another badge snob yes I’m talking to you .
I'm sorry but the reliability I think is soso and luxury....again I'm sorry but that is the ugliest grill I have yet to see.
