I rented one of these while i was on vacation in Florida. I didnt rent it on purpose, it was just what i ended up with in the class that i wanted. I was amazed at the performance and level of class that it showed. I am currently in yhe market for an AWD 3.3 tt sport prestige.
I just purchased the exact same car you reviewed here with the same exterior color and features. The interior however is white / black (which I love). I'm a true BMW enthusiast so it's nice to see that other car companies are finally giving them a run for their money. The things I love about this car over BMW: - Much nicer fit and finish of the interior - Much more comfortable for the driver and passengers - Extended warranty - Unique look (I get lots of looks & compliments) I am going to be traveling across country this summer and cannot wait to put this car through its paces!
Nice review. Genesis is on a winning streak, I bought another Genesis Motor Trend vehicle (SUV) of the Year, a 2022 GV70 3.5 Sport Prestige, but I tested the G70 3.3T, very nice. Just had my painless one year concierge service, plus the warranty, Genesis belongs.
Very good review. I absolutely love this car. I purchased this very car 2 months ago, only difference is interior/exterior colors. The comfort and driving dynamics of this car pleasantly surprised me! 🤘🏼
@@bigden2755 well, I can tell you yes, especially if you lay one of the back seats down but not sure if you can without doing that as I don’t golf or know the dimensions of golf bag.
First tried to buy a loaded '23 M240i AWD since rear seat space was unimportant. They wanted my paid-off trade plus $18,500. On a whim I looked at a new G70 3.3 AWD with an MSRP a few hundred more than the BMW. I went home with it for my trade and $9,981. Oh, and this is from someone who has owned 15 Bimmers. This is a screaming deal!
@@black2fox1 Sport Prestige Elite version (3.3L AWD), de-badged, windows tinted, underbody rustproofing, paint protection and a full warranty, including all wheels was right at 60. I was not willing to pay anyone a premium over sticker when this came in. In my area, they would arrive and be gone within 4 hours. I missed 2 waiting until I left work to go see them.
Love that you used the Hallasan green. That's the color I chose it's beautiful. Depending on tbe lighting it changes colors on me. Nobody believes me that it's a shade of green lol. Not to mention the green gets the Matte gray brembos. At first I loved the red brembos but once I saw this combo I fell in love. Great car so far I'm very excited with my purchase.
I’m a G80 owner, will you speak about the Genesis you add the parent company! Nobody does this with Lexus, Infinity, or Acura! Oh by the way in the video the iconic LS made a cameo it you video!
Agreed. It's the color I chose and even to this day nobody can tell me what color it is. Nobody believes me that it's a shade of green. Looks dark Grey in certain light. Glad I waited to find this color combo. There were only 2 hallasan greens in California
Sorry..I had the first year G70 3.3T. I think because it was the first year, I had nothing but problems. The worst part was the service. Hopefully, they got better.
@@gabevillarreal96 1. Rattle in the rear when you put the car in park. It would make a sequel noise. They said it was the rear brakes . (It wasn't). 2. Brakes n rotors were bad. Their fix was to keep cutting rotors. (never fixed issue). 3. Infotainment center was fixed 3x's. 4. Chrome molding around doors n windows started to fade. (they repaired it once and said it was a one-time fix. The same issue appeared again 3 months later. I had to fight with both the dealer & corporate). Again this could be because of it being the first year out, but their service is not good at all for claiming to be a luxury division.I had to fight with them on all issues and there was more. I'm just glad I'm done with that company. I just got a 2023 BMW M340i Xdrive. Hopefully no issues... lol
Personally, I don't like the grille. The original grille looked much classier and more elegant, strongly reminiscent of Bentley. I don't like the instrument panel. I think it should either be all analog or all digital, not half and half. It just looks goofy. But I do love the steering and handling. And the price is right!
You forget that Genesis is part of Kia to Hyundai Genesis Kia because Kia is the sister brand of Hyundai and so they made Genesis the luxury brand so hyundai-kia Genesis
They're not blue, they're cool white, video doesn't color code it correctly. All digital dash on the GV70 is garbage, the same would translate to this model. Thank god it didn't.
Agreed. Not sure why people are all clambering over a full digital dash. My wife has a digital dash and it lags at times or loads blury. An analog dash doesn't bother me and one less thing to break
The car is average but the genesis service is one of the worst in the world. Wait until something breaks 😆 they will tell you to screw off they have no parts
@knicks1531 I bought a certified 2018 g80 5.0 The sunroof broke few days later and waited 1.5 years but they never got the parts.

I have the ‘22. Only difference I saw was the power trunk. I love my G70! I’ve had about 16 months now and have 30k miles on it.
@shaaaaadup I’ve had no real issues. At one time the mirrors didn’t come back out like they should when unlocking the car but that has gone away.

And that ugly grille sensor has to go
Cars lacking.. blue buttons are ugly no ambient lighting no infotainment wheel needs an all digital dash
I will agree that it is in need of a refresh
Please no all digital dash

You lost all credibility with your Kia Stinger remarks. Try reviewing something a little more your apeed, like the model T.
They share a lot of stuff....
