I just got mine 2019 3.3t g80 😍😍😍😍 Fyi: I've been an Japanese owner most of my life Infiniti 2013 g37xs, 2012 Honda accord, G37xs again, then a q70s 2017 which that one unfortunately was stolen but I heard about genesis and did thorough research. These cars are hard to get and that already caught my eye. After looking at the design and specs it's like a maaaajjjjooooorrrrrrr upgrade from what I owned and I can say I'm glad it was stolen 😆. This car is revolutionary and will take over the auto market real soon, but for now I'll gladly be the only one driving this in NYC, people know I settle for the finer things when it comes to cars.
Thanks Joe!! My friend just took delivery of his pearl white G80 Sport with gray leather, which he custom-ordered. He absolutely loves it. After considering other European and Asian marques, he concluded the G80 was the best bang-for-the-buck in the large-sedan luxury market. What sealed the deal was Genesis' concierge service, which picks up and returns his G-ship at work/home and leaves a loaner for him during servicing. Great product and awesome service by Genesis!
I have a 2018 3.3T G80 and I love it. It is by far the best car I've owned. It's fast. It's quiet. It handles well. And the sound system is next level. Also big fan of Android Auto.
The Genesis brand reminds me of Lexus when they first started. They were shaking things up back then with a different way of thinking at a lower price.
@@RaitisRides yep pictures leaked the other day.. It looks great!!! Also theres newly leaked pics of the Santa Cruz truck online as of today... Hyundai is doing huge things!
I purchased a 2020 G80 Sport (red) about a month ago. So far it’s great. Drove it from Denver to Montana, to visit the crazy family I was a BMW snob for 30 plus years until I purchased a 2012 Hyundai Genesis RSpec. I’ll never go back to BMW. Surprising how many people ask about the car and how many think it’s a Bentley
I have red G80 Sport 2019. Love it ! “Is that a Bentley “ is the most common question. I say no it’s a Hyundai. Then walk away. The look on their face is stunning. They are so confused. Love it. Garbage tires. Swap them out for Michelin super sport. Veteran move
Love the channel! Keep up the great work my man! Just bought a Genesis G80 myself, partially due to the review from this channel. I have to say, I have never been happier with a purchase I have ever made, which is not many due to my being a 28 y/o millennial without the massive bank account. And yet, I feel more of a king in my Genesis than I did in any of the German sports sedans I test drove which were all at least 10K more than the Genesis (with comparable options). Much love!
The redesigned G80 will be released soon, though this is still an incredible car for the money. One other thing, this exterior will age well. I see people driving them around town and they look sharp.
@@stevewise1656 Dig a little more guys. You can find fully uncovered photos now. This will be revealed in Korea before the end of December. Can't wait to see it!
Hey Joe! Love your reviews to the fullest. Just had a suggestion which I understand may or may not work on all vehicles you do a review on, I’m a huge fan for lights all around, love leds! Is there a way you can show the day time running lights or brake lights and all? If not, no worries. Keep doing what you do!
I have it on good authority that a coupe is already in the works. Unfortunately, it won't come out until after both the GV80 and the upcoming GV70 have been released. And I don't know if it will be for the G80 or G70 or what, as my source is under strict orders to not say anything more on that. But it IS happening.
Even with this usb zonks I still bought this car in white. The new ones look great but the older ones took the depreciation hit already and still looks relevant! 💪🏾 💪🏾 💪🏾 This guy review is very informative and funny at the same time.
I love your videos Joe! The new Genesis G lines are soooo good! I'm 25 years old and just started my career. Planning on getting a brand new G70 3.3T sport when i can afford it.
I love Hyundai and have been with them for years. We had the Santa Fe 2014 Fully loaded since then, We got a veloster and recently got the 2019 Santa Fe Limited 2.0 and we love it. Hyundai provides a ton of futures compared to the competition, in fact they were one of the first in provide Android/Apple Car play to head-units and is always providing the newest technology to their vehicles. Now with the New Sonata... You can move your car with the key without being in the car... To get you an idea.... You needed to have a 5 or 7 series of BMW to do that and I was probably the first in the market... Now with less than 35k you can have the same feature. Talking about Genesis, now it really nice that they're going to replace the 2.0t for the base Genesis G70 and use the new 2.5 that's used for the Veloster N ... 290hp I think... That's pretty bold for being a hyundai....That means that tuners will take your base G70 or your new upcoming Sonata N Line and bumped up to 300+hp. Toyota still with their extremely slow 1.8 engines... lol..
Always love the videos Joe , not even looking for a car currently, but it’s always nice to kick back, have a few cold ones and watch these. Greetings from fort Myers
Omg I drool every time I see one of these. Best looking luxury car on the market in my opinion... 🤤🤤🤤🤤 Best color to get is the Siberian Ice with those black spoked rims.. I have a 2017 Sonata and honestly it's going to be tough to choose between the 2020 Sonata and this when it comes time to buy my next car.
There no comparison a sonata although good not in the same league as G80. Test drive one and you'll see the difference. I have a 2017 G80 its fabulous. Now we're waiting for the GV80 SUV
I leased a 2016 Genesis 3.8 and upgraded to the 2018 G80 3.3 T. The 2016 Hyundai got destroyed in deprecation when Hyundai switched to Genesis. That car is worth nothing now ! The dealership experience was pretty whack for the price point but the cars were unbelievably solid in every way and never any issues . Radio HUD, Tech, engine power acoustic windshield ...all just awesome! I would consider Genesis GV80 but likely will stick with an all electric household that I started . We’ll see!
The g80 is going to replace my 300 limited eventually. I love my hunnie and I’m still keeping it for a few more years but, I’ve been eyeing up the G80s for sure as my next sedan replacement.
Definitely would like to see you review and test drive the 2020 Genesis G90 V8 . Genesis should be revealing the GV80 suv really soon. Can't wait to see the details on that!👍
@@rockymountainbeerguy5656 Sure. They've leaked their product deployment for the new year to the Korean press, and they've spread it into their videos. That's how I found out.
@@johnholst I watch Asian Petrolhead and he said they delayed the release by a couple weeks. That was last week. I saw the leaked photos and it looks great! I heard it will have a 3.5 V6 turbo making 380 to 400 horsepower.
@@rockymountainbeerguy5656 I watch Charlie too. He's great. I also watch some videos in Korean. In Korea at least, the GV80 will be released with three all new engines; 2.5Ltt, 3L inline 6 diesel, and the range topping 3.5Ltt. I'm very excited!
Awesome car. I would buy the normally aspirated engine. But only because of lower cost out of warranty. If I were trading in every 3 -4 years, I would get this twin turbo. Thanks again for your excellent review. God bless you.
I think the Genesis brand is good and they make nice cars BUT with their crappy Genesis Dealer/Support network and lack of many parts in the US makes it a hard sell for this car for many. I'm also not convinced the reliability of this cars it up to snuff with the Japanese brands like Lexus. Very fast depreciation is also a big problem with this brand. BTW you would be crazy to buy the G80 right now when the Redesign is out later this year!
Genesis is a great upcoming brand I'd say, but just the issue is no dealerships. The one nearest me is in the same building as Hyundai; Toyota has definitely learned earlier on with Lexus that people buying a Lexus don't want to have their vehicles serviced in the same place as a Corolla, Camry or the like. Just a totally different atmosphere and experience. I'm sure it's the same with buy a G70 or G80 and having it serviced next to a Kona or Elantra. Also there is a thing to say about overall customer experience as well, as people entering a only Genesis dealership would be treated perhaps more respectfully than a Kia or Hyundai one. Great vid joe
That's probably Hyundais and Kias biggest hurdle. Getting their dealerships to reflect the quality of products they sell now. But I will say, not all Hyundai dealers are the same. The one I bought my Sonata from was pretty welcoming... Didn't make me feel 2nd class as other people have claimed. And they sell Genesis, there too....
I like the Genesis line but not the light color on the seats. The grill looks too much like a chain link fence to me. I’d choose the G70 over the G80. Nice job Joe! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Haha Ann Arbor Michigan 👌🏼nice place to visit, hey joe I’ve watched a few of your videos and this might be the first review you almost didn’t zonk anything 😁👍🏼
Yes, I love everything that Genesis is doing right now. There have also been alot of spy shots and leaks of their soon to be released crossover, the GV80. It looks very good so far. That 3.3 TT V6 is an incredible engine. If you want a cheaper preowned G80, and providing your not a badge snob, you can get a 2015-2016 Hyundai Genesis for a fraction of the cost. With the exception of a few trim and exterior details, it is essentially the exact same car. It only came with a NA V6 and V8 though. Providing it was in the budget though, the Genesis G80 Sport would always be my choice.
Agreed! Just picked up a 2016 G80 cpo and what an amazing deal it was for this car. I have the 3.8 v6 with awd and it’s just perfect. It sounds amazing when you floor it. Plus the interior is so comfortable and quiet. I fell in love with it within 5 minutes of driving it and had to get one.
Hi, I own a G90. First, I love the car. I had a BMW 740 and the G90 is, pound for pound just as nice if not better. Before you purchase a G90, call the service dept and ask for service. Then, ask for a loaner car and/or valet pickup. In the Atlanta area, the 3 dealers I've dealt with, to get oil changes, any type of service, there is no loaner car, no valet and it'll take 1-2 months to get service. So, let's say your car overheats. You'll not be able to drive it or go without your car till service can be done. I've even called the 800 Genesis Connected Service number to complain and see if something could be done. Guess what ... they spoke a good tune just like the dealership but they haven't done ANYTHING. If I wanted to be ignored or make to feel insignificant I could have just stayed with my BMW and their overpriced service dept. Speaking of overpriced, the 5000 mile oil change at the dealership was $180. For an oil change !!!! Again, I might as well go back to BMW. Do the research and know that you've been warned. Happy driving.
I drove the 2018 g80 sports thinking buying it today and it was nice, but seeing the g80 2021 in the lot is making it much harder. I wish the lease plans for 2021 were decent.
I just subbed last night after seeing your old Genesis video, made me look at getting one soon and ironically you upload another one Today. Quick question, what type of gas is recommended for this car?
Very pretty. There is a complete new redesign (I guess with a massive superman gtrill) with new engine that was supposed to be revealed in November but got delayed.
Luv the reviews bro but question I'm in the market for a car my 2 options are 2018 Genesis G80sport and 2018 G70 genesis 3.3l. Seen that you have gotten the chance to drive both cars which one would be your pick base on your over view.
Thanks Joe! Love this G80, but it has been around since 2013. She's getting long in the tooth. The all new G80 will be revealed in February and it will be a quantum leap better than this one. But you can get a crazy good deal on this model. Undercuts a 5 Series or E Class (both smaller than this!) by anywhere from 25-40K. Worth considering.
This design G80 looks way better than the 2024 style, imo. I hate the new stripe headlights and taillights. I'm considering a used low mileage 2020 3.3T for the design alone.
Awesome vid. I love my 2015 Hyundai Genesis which is almost exactly the same as the this G80 for about half of the price! I can't imagine any car I'd rather have under 60-70k. I hope to upgrade to the 2020 G90 in a few years if all goes well.
I really wanted to like the G70 manual. First, the manual sucks. Second, not only does it not have rear seat usb, but it doesn't even have air vents from the center console. Fix those and a few other low-cost tweaks, and Genesis will really give the Germans a run for their money.
I drive a Genesis G80 and it is the best car I’ve ever owned.
what other cars have you owned?
I drive a G70 and I love it. I’m planning on upgrading to a G80 very soon.

Guess what ... they spoke a good tune just like the dealership but they haven't done ANYTHING. If I wanted to be ignored or make to feel insignificant I could have just stayed with my BMW and their overpriced service dept. Speaking of overpriced, the 5000 mile oil change at the dealership was $180. For an oil change !!!! Again, I might as well go back to BMW. Do the research and know that you've been warned. Happy driving.
Ladies and Gentleman, I present to you. . . THE ZONKSTER
Thanks for that!
Better to be the Zonkster than the Quirkster. Looking at you Mr. DeMuro.
@@wbwayne8887 that is so awesome of you to say!
I need this car!! I have a 15, would love to upgrade!!
I drove the 2018 g80 sports thinking buying it today and it was nice, but seeing the g80 2021 in the lot is making it much harder. I wish the lease plans for 2021 were decent.
I know how you feel!
dude we have owned 7, currently have a g80 and a twin turbo g7p won t drive any thing else.
Thanks for sharing that!
7? doesn't seem to scream reliable🤣
@@james-sz9un doesn't mean they were bad. Maybe he leased🤷🏾♂️
Awesome car. But I am bit skeptic of the GDi engines that are in 70% of today's cars. What are your thoughts about direct injection engines Joe?
The jury is still out on me. I've have done some research and discovered that actually flooring the throttle cleans out carbon deposits.
@@RaitisRides perfect excuse for when you get pulled over. "I was just cleaning out carbon deposit officer" 🤷🏽♂️
@@mikke906 lmao 😆😆😆😆
Love the G80 sport.
A 100k S class doesn’t even have vented seats in the back standard. Wtf
It has heated seats in the back standard. Not ventilated.
I just subbed last night after seeing your old Genesis video, made me look at getting one soon and ironically you upload another one Today. Quick question, what type of gas is recommended for this car?
Leo Barks it’s a sign get one 👍💯
Premium gas
If only it had folding rear seats -- like the 5 series and E-Class. = ( Blows me away they omitted this.
Very pretty. There is a complete new redesign (I guess with a massive superman gtrill) with new engine that was supposed to be revealed in November but got delayed.
Very cool video Joe, the G90 is the worth the money, it handles great, and is very quiet inside.
It was between this and the M2 for me! Got the M2 and your review helped sir!
Amazing quality video as always
Thanks Daniel for saying that! It really means a lot!
Luv the reviews bro but question I'm in the market for a car my 2 options are 2018 Genesis G80sport and 2018 G70 genesis 3.3l. Seen that you have gotten the chance to drive both cars which one would be your pick base on your over view.
The g80 looks beautiful 😍
Thanks Joe! Love this G80, but it has been around since 2013. She's getting long in the tooth. The all new G80 will be revealed in February and it will be a quantum leap better than this one. But you can get a crazy good deal on this model. Undercuts a 5 Series or E Class (both smaller than this!) by anywhere from 25-40K. Worth considering.
This body style was introduced as a 2015 model.
@@335xi1 Actually, it was introduced in 2013 as the Hyundai Genesis.
I love this car and the guy who just reviewed it. perfect pakage 😂
Do they still offer the 5.0 V8 for the 2020 Genesis?
Hey Joe, it is a 19" wheel
This and the new Volvo by far the best looking sport sedan imo
I am so glad that you like this one!
I Was with you digging it till you said "No USBs in the back". Nice review though as always. 👍
I feel your pain! Thanks for the compliment.
I have a 2015 now think I'm going to get this one next year I thought it was a 19 inch wheel as well
How would you compare this to the Kia K900?
Compare the G90 to KIA K900
Hey!!! Amazing job. Great presentation, even though it's not much different than G70.
I love watching your videos! Salute
Nice video again I'm going to look at one of these on Saturday. I currently driving a C-class 300 2017 I need more power and more technology
Joe, when you don't mention the aux jack, does that mean the car doesn't have that?
Joe,
When does the 2021 model come out? Thanks!
Woo ~ this will be mine soon I hope.
Go for it! You will love it!
I mean if you drive your Genesis only on Tuesday and Thursday...
This is true.
Omg he said not even a solar panel 😭😭😭😂😂😂 imagine a mini one in the back seat
Thanks for letting me share some laughs with you!
@@RaitisRides I like your videos keep it comming with the food and funny stuff
And not to mention that heck of deal powertrain warranty
This design G80 looks way better than the 2024 style, imo. I hate the new stripe headlights and taillights. I'm considering a used low mileage 2020 3.3T for the design alone.
Number one salesman 👍
Thanks but I am not a salesman. I am just a guy sharing his passion for cars.
@@RaitisRides ex racer?
This has to be a 2019 model because the 2020's no longer offer a cd player...🤔🤔
Damn... I wanted a 2020 is350 black line but this is looking pretty good
Awesome vid. I love my 2015 Hyundai Genesis which is almost exactly the same as the this G80 for about half of the price! I can't imagine any car I'd rather have under 60-70k. I hope to upgrade to the 2020 G90 in a few years if all goes well.
“iPhone 13” I’m dying. Lmbo
Thanks for letting me share the laughs with you.
Tanks for letting me share the laughs with you.
With your tootsie rolls, I'm 💀
Nice jokes while driving. The commentary during the driving portion was awesome 👏
I really wanted to like the G70 manual. First, the manual sucks. Second, not only does it not have rear seat usb, but it doesn't even have air vents from the center console. Fix those and a few other low-cost tweaks, and Genesis will really give the Germans a run for their money.
Suneil...Good point. But it's the only company that offers a manual in this class. Gotta give em points for that!
Just subscribed I love this channel. Looking at getting one of these myself
Thanks for joining the Raiti's Rides Family! You will love one of these!
I drive a G80. Love the car! I love the new 2021 coming out.
Best review ever. Love the honesty.
Thanks Ken that really means a lot!
