I made a request for this review recently. Thank you. 👌👌
Hope you like it!
When I went and picked up our GV70 the G70 Shooting Brake was in the show room. It really stood out in a show room full of beautifully designed cars. As for user experience we have had our twin turbo six for two months and 3,500 klms. Love it, no issues and I would average about one comment from someone a week about how nice it looks. From complete strangers. And no, it ain't me I don't look that good.
Did you get the 4 cyl or V6?
@@winstonthecuttlefish5352 the V6
@@steverodwell2952 How's the fuel economy, terrible or comparable to Japanese and Euro equivalent?
Congrats on the G70! I’d like to be the compliment on your car that you receive this week! Seriously it’s a great looking car. I’ve heard mixed things about their service network so it’ll be interesting to see how your ownership experience goes after some time has passed. I’m guessing the only thing that may hold Genesis back is some nervousness from potential buyers about resale values. It sure looks classy though.
@@winstonthecuttlefish5352 Over the first 4000 klms it has got better, the last trip of 750klms we just finished the average of mostly 110klm/hr highway driving - in the comfort drive map - was 8.1L per 100klms. I think given the performance this is pretty good actually.
Hi Paul. Thank you for your review. Envy you guys. B/C we don’t even get Genesis G70 shooting brake here in Korea. Thanks.
Everything genesis makes just looks so damn good
Agreed finally got a buddy with more money than I to look and now it’s all genesis talk all the time.!.!.!
It's frustrating that in this age of everything being a SUV, cars such as these on the outside look like a great alternative for someone that has a family, but then you look at the rear passenger space and its comparable to a 90s Civic hatchback...such a shame
I love the design, internal execution. Although tall people will find the limited space a bit uncomfortable, I see this vehicle as a relaxing cruiser. A lot of "sportier" options out there. So a nice change for someone looking for something more sedated in today's "rush hour" lifestyle 🕺🥂
Haven't been this awestruck by a wagon since first seeing the photos of the VW Arteon Shooting Brake. I must say, of all the premium wagons on the market, in fact of all the wagon still on the market, this G70 just tops it.
Not sick to death with anything you do mate. I love wagon’s. Had a VP 5 speed wagon from new. Best car I’ve ever had. Nowhere near this spec but as a young fella, bloody awesome. Thanks mate
Dude! You read my mind! Bloody SUVs and utes clogging the roads and now my RUclips feed.
Love the look of these things. Great review as always, Paul!
This thing looks awesome. Great vid mate!
Wow, I thought that was a Merc from the thumbnail. Wasn't going to click it but I was bored so I figured why not and I like this channel (and our friendly down under host, Paul). I have to say the Genesis brand is doing very good things as of late. This shooting brake / wagon looks freaking gorgeous.
Paul, I'm wondering why, in all your reviews you never give us a gentle peek under the bonnet, nothing in depth but just to give a general idea of engine bay layout. 'Twould be a nice touch, without going into great detail.
you guys do a fantastic job with covering all the details, zooming in on them, without talking about them for too long. man i would kill to have this car in the us 😢
Another wicked review, thank you 😊
Pretty nice car - Just needs the 3.3T. I appreciate this interior over the newer Genesis ones with the strange ovals.
I agree it needs the bigger engine
Good review of a slick looking wagon Paul! Was on the shopping list until you jumped in the back seat. I’m still loving my 2017 Skoda Superb wagon with 206 kw 4WD. P.s. Loved the drifting!😈 Great for the shopping in the back! Scrambled eggs anyone?🤣
Leg room in the second row is so poor - no idea how it got the green light.
@@CarExpertAus Yep so disappointing mate! Pity those bulbous plastic rear seat inserts are so bulbous! As for no toe room?😖
Has Skoda been reliable?
@@daweigo6851 Absolutely! I just keep up the servicing intervals. You know it has all VW running gear? The engine is out of the Golf R spec.
@@CarExpertAus they benchmarked the rear seats against the LandCruiser 300
Great honest review, have now subscribed
Awesome looking wagon. 🔥🔥
Great review.
Love the detail. Been wondering why so many reviews cover the same stuff but when I look at the car in person i'd see a whole lot more, not really the case when these videos show so much.
However, I found the tapping a little excessive, and kind of amusing after watching Mighty Car Mods' new Golf R video where they did a little parody of typical car reviews 🙂
While at a different price range the Audi RS6 is my favorite looking wagon, what a looker and the noise is great.
i love the look of the shooting brake of the g70 i mean this is lit especially in dark blue with brown leather and I'm watching in malaysia and gday in australia
Thanks for watching!
Ok this is the coolest thing I've ever seen
Looks great in person!
@@CarExpertAus It already looks amazing in video lol
omg this video is so great before i was thinking genesis cars are bad but there good
😄
Hooray for station wagons! This looks pretty good! Although back seat room is disappointing
Great unique looking short wagon-ish design and sadly we can hardly see this kind of designs nowadays. Reminds me of the Subaru wagon which I loved a lot.
Definitely my next dream daily car ❤️❤️
About the familiar wheels, they look similar to what Mercedes used to offer on the SLS Black Series.

This is not a limitation of Android Auto. There are plenty of models with 10.25" screen that change the design and puts the lower panel onto the left or right hand side (depending on the driver side). That Android Auto labelled area becomes a context based second screen for navigation, music or phone depending on what you're doing
Hey Paul,
Are you planning on reviewing the 2022 Kia Cerato Gt soon? 🤞🏽🤞🏽
Thanks for this review!! Iv heard that the diesels for the G70 aren’t very refined and I was wondering if anyone has experienced one in person
Had no idea the g70 even had a shooting break! Shame we don't get it here in the states
Is not so much that I'm sick of SUVs, but when did the twin-cab ute become the ideal family vehicle?
Exactly, I miss Station Wagons/Estates
Exactly
@@aliggamer7251 I'm still looking for a worthy replacement for my 17 year old Subaru liberty RB wagon with no luck , tried a 2020 VW Tiguan R line but sold it after 1year.
@@djm8027 Skoda Octavia RS or Superb AWD.
Try get your hands on arteon R super keen for that
Nice looking car
The wheels are similar to that on an Aston Martin V8 vantage, 19inch as well :)
When will you review a Tesla Paul? Keen to see you reviewing one
Love this car, would have looked even better if they hid the rear wiper ala Sportage
So much want! What a elegant design inside and out. So impressed. Would definitely buy over the dull Germans and uncompetitive Japanese competiton. Would love to see it with the GV70/Stinger's 2.5T or the 3.3TT found on other G70 variants. Love that wheel design on this estate. My parents own a GV70 3.5TT Sport and its fantastic. They love it and think its much nicer than the Audi SQ5 it replaced.
Nothing elegant about the rear seat room. That is woeful packaging. Deal breaker.
It looks like a modern Subaru impreza and I love it
The issue with non-full screen Android Auto is definitely not a limitation of Android Auto, other manufacturers have similar format widescreen displays with full-screen Android Auto. This has been an extremely common complaint with Kia/Hyundai (and by extension Genesis) cars among Android Auto users unfortunately, disappointing to see yet another model that has this issue given that it first cropped up around 2019, over 2 years ago.
That's a good point - we just reviewed the iX and it does full screen Android Auto.
@@CarExpertAus i suspect that particular aspect ratio is a limitation of android auto
@@nedyahyakcam nope, Android Auto in widescreen mode is largely aspect ratio agnostic. The only thing required to enable it is for the car/headunit to tell the phone "this is a widescreen/large format display" and Android Auto will display in just about any resolution or aspect ratio, including vertical ones. Any manufacturer that has a non-fullscreen implementation of Android Auto that says "this is a limitation of Android Auto" is flat out wrong.
This is beautiful but why why why would they limit this to the 4 banger? Doesn't make sense.. Come on Genesis twin turbo 6 please!
Agreed!
This looks so much better than any car you can buy for 100k
Ive had my G70 2.0T Sport for six months now after 3 years with the Kia Stinger GT and enjoy it every bit as much even with the step down from 6 to 4 cylinders. It is a more agile, refined and composed vehicle all around and of all the feature differences I really only miss the 360 camera view which was such a big help for avoiding curb rash to the rims when parallel parking. As far as the criticism of rear seat room for me and I'm sure many others this is not a problem as my family are all average height and I almost never carry other /tall passengers. Enjoyed Pauls review as always.
The rims look like they encompass the Acura emblem, some Acura rims do look a little similar too.
Is the phone connectivity wireless? I dont recall if you said it was or not
16:00 would have been cool to hear the interior noise with and without "active sound design"
I love the design I wish they offered it in the U.S and with the 3.3 liter twin turbo v6.
I thought, road side assistance kit would have a mobile phone in it:)
Those wheels are almost identical to the standard 19 wheels that Mercedes Benz are putting on their E200-E300's sedan/saloons at present.
Paul, Whats the go with the 360 camera? I have noticed on alot on the cars you review the top down view always has that shadow around the car. Why is this? Why cant they have it smooth to the body of the car.
Android auto does have widescreen support where maps/media controls go into split screen mode. Hyundai/Genesis/Kia just haven't updated their infotainment software to support it yet🙁
If this was sold in the U.S and I had the dough I would buy this over the sedan in a heatbeat.
It'd be well priced in the US too!
I did 200 kms in my New Stinger and that roof rattled for 199 of them. Got rid of it when I was told by Kia that it was within the acceptable limit and there was no fix. And by the look of it its the same roof in this thing. Aside from the roof issue it was an awesome car and somewhat upset that it had to go, but if you can't do a panoramic roof that is solid with no noise, then don't do it at all.
Danko - thank you
Wish we had these in the US
Shooting Brake model, YES!.😍👍🏼 I like it this 100%.
Thanks for this video.👋🏼😎
Glad you liked it!
It can't be a limitation of Android Auto because in the Haval H6 android Auto does a 3/4 split so you can have maps taking up 3/4 of the screen and then have your Spotify in the last quarter and that screen is over 12 inches
Very true!
Its perfection, but I'd personally wait for the upcoming RWD Mazda6 wagon before I made a final decision
One of the Best estates in the segment, 330i touring just a little bit better if you pick the right spec. but its really close, which is rarely the case between German cars and Korean
One issue the sedan has was the rear room. Sad to see the wagon didn’t do much to solve that.
Shooting brake not a wagon..... 😁
@@daweigo6851 Indeed, but considering shooting brakes are traditionally 2-door wagons… 🤷♂️
Nice
Were you thinking of the Supra's wheels??
so disappointed the 3.3 isnt available here in aus
Why no six litre vee eight with supercharger ?
… and no bloody piano black! Yes!
I would like to buy a Genesis shooting brake G70 in Italy . How can I do? Hyundai Italy can't tell me when will be available on Italian market !!!...
Sounds of nature I was worried it was gone
An interesting proposal, until I see the Lane Keep Assist icon at 8:20 - this is an instant no.
If nothing has changed, this is the same as what new cars from Hyundai/Kia has, where they force this to default to 'On' across engine restarts no matter what the driver selects. Even worse - this technology doesn't work well with turns on a highway or unclear marks on the road, a few occasions it steers towards the truck beside me or the concrete middle divider when I'm doing 100+km/h. This is way beyond inconvenient.
Nice review from Paul and team, as always.
You can turn it off in the 2022 Stinger
@@NoOne56488 Does it turn off permanently - until you turn it back on - or like @TW said, does it come on by default every time you re-start the car? Cheers for the info - Stinger is such an underplayed car.
@@NoOne56488 that's good to hear! I'll check in with my dealer next time i'm in service - it's annoying and dangerous. personally i don't think it's ready for commercial use
Nice car... needs a more exciting engine... hybrid would be attractive... my sorento has good lane keep assist .. use it alot.. surprised at comparison but yeah roadworks and all that crap lane marking won't help
I watched the DDD when I was in a A250e. What a distracting mess of unnecessary info. Don't like any of those things, but I will admit the Blind Spot camera view is a superb idea. But I'd take traditional dials and blind spot shown on the main screen.
GL
would be nice with a tuned ecu
from the side it looks more like a hatchback than a shooting brake. cargo space is pretty much that of a hatchback too.
Love from India
Hello from Australia!
I’m so jealous, I hate Australia so much right now. I want this in the States 😭
I feel you lol
exuse me im from asutralia its the best its the safest country from volcanes thank you im a pro true aussie thanks mate
😂
The wheels look similar to the wheels on the Porsche 997 series 2 GT3.
I think the reason android auto only takes a bit of screen is similar to why snapchat is worse in androids. Apple decives give or take all use the same software, hardware whereas andriod is in many different types of phones (folding ones, dual screens etc.) so google just makes it half for everyone to make it easy for them. Correct me if am wrong
Interesting...Lexicon is brand which is PRO audio world is in dsP and effects world. I has no experience in speaker world. Would love to test-hear :)
This is baby BENTLEY from Korea 👍👍👍👍👍
The wheels kinda look like those on an M5 CS
The wheels look like the ones from an older Aston Martin Vantage v8
It's weird how android auto is full wide screen in some cars, such as Lexus, and not in others
Yep agreed!
Just add an ECU tune and these things are up with the big euro boys!
Isn't shooting brake suppose to have two doors. 4 doors are called wagon instead.
why no 6 cylinder.
Yes definitely over SUVs lol I’d rather a station wagon every day but probably not this one ☝️ but great review again 👍🇦🇺
Love it but no V6 TT means not interested, I'll keep my Stinger
Got PS4s on Golf Wagon and they are quite loud over corse chip at open road. The price you pay for performance 😅
The wagon is better than the sedan. 👍
Why would they think that we would not want the V6TT for this thing. Not a smart move Genesis
Would be awesome with a V6!
@@CarExpertAus heaps of space in the bay for it. Wouldn’t be surprised if we see some swaps with the stinger motor soon
Genius had the "world" to work with in creating a G70 wagon. As much of me is a Hyundai proponent (I drive a Sonata,, great car). What doesn't work for me is the line between the "B" pillar and "C" pillar. "Let's see, I'm a sedan, or NO, I'm a wagon,,, or NO, I'm a sedan.
Personality crisis!

Shirt story: $80K - petrol 4cyl . . . won't sell! At that price the 6 cyl turbo would have a definite chance. Beautiful car & quality but not $80K for what is offered here. I'd definitely be a buyer at $80 but only for a V6 twin turbo AND tweaked higher than the Stinger (that powerplant was due for an upgarde anyway)
I wish you would have cleaned the car before the review but otherwise great job.
now that the Stinger is on its last leg - bring this to the USA!!
Meanwhile us in Canada gets shafted
There's a special place in hell for SUV lovers 😂
This with the V6 or EV would win my heart. Nice work Genesis.
PS. New version of Android Auto out in a few months which fixes that screen real estate problem.
2:30 Porsche carrera s wheels
The Skoda Superb 4x4 Wagon is a better car. More room and faster as well. I also hate how manufacturers don't incorporate the infotainment system in the dash, it always looks like a tacky addon to me when they do this.
You can't compere the skoda to this. This is a lot more of a premium car.
It doesnt look like a shooting brake, it almost looks like a hatchback!
I love like new car 2022 genesis g70 2:0 turbo wogan I love car
Don't get matte paint. If you have to respray a panel the paint will never match other panels when viewed from different angles
