Dear Genesis, I've been a fan since the brand launched. I agree with the comment that at this price point, omitting massaging seat on the passenger side is no longer justifiable. Looking forward to purchasing GV80 after I retire G80 in few years. Also, I would ask you, as one of the most innovative car brands, please consider making a wagon version of your sedan? :) You don't bring the G80 Sportbrake to America, but I would love to see G08 or G90 Sportbrake. As much as I love GV80, I want to driving around less car. I wish you success. The upcoming GV90 will be another milestone for Genesis. Looking forward to it!!!
Regarding the Lane Keeping Assist and Lane Follow Assist you mentioned, it is actually a button on the steering wheel. The button with lanes and a steering wheel icon next to the smart cruise distance button is how to use it. Short press for Lane Follow Assist (centering) on or off, long press for Lane Keep Assist on and off.
What a well-done, and simply downright pleasant review. So many car reviews are really annoying, and this one is done so professionally and pleasantly, I actually watched the entire vid. Nice!
There are a lot of standalone Genesis delearships plus you don’t even have to go to delearship. They can drop off a loaner and pick up ya car for service. Keep living in the pass.
I’m sure this car can last 10 years without any major issues. I have a 20 g90 with 76k miles. No issues and nowadays who even keep cars for over 15 years ?
The comment on the seats. I don't have this car, but I'd imagine they will "break in" over time. My Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit had hard seats and it took about 3 months for them to break in, and now they are great!
I say in a GV70 and it wasn’t even the top model yet the interior felt so solid. genesis material usage is top notch, I would buy the GV80 in a heartbeat if it came in a higher performing flavour.
"Smells better than your kid's feet" high praise indeed! Response to your next request to test drive a Genesis? "Two words & they're not 'kid's feet'". 😂 (love the humor)
This refresh will age much better than the lauch edition. The pre-refresh model looked dated from when it was released. I like how Genesis refresh their models, unlike Acura and Lexus that barely make any noticeable changes, especially with their interiors.
Hard disagree on the resale value vs competition, the German brands resale value take a nosedive once they’re closer to the end of warranty, I mean averaging around a 40-65% drop
I own a German car, bought it brand new in 2016, just under 100k, kept in a garage when not in use only 23k miles, body / interior perfect condition aside of a few curb scraps on the aluminum wheels , depreciation trade in value 29k….unless it’s a rare vintage car you don’t buy them for investments, you will find one of the worst but they can be a pleasure to own
Why do people make such a big deal about reliability? Just git gud at life and make enough money to buy a new car every couple years. What? You can't do that? What are you doing with your life? lmao reliability. sad
Agree...Unless you plan to drive 20 years, then maybe. But if you change car every 5 years, reliability of most cars can handle the time period, especially the Koreans, they have really stepped up their reliability. People somehow forget that companies improves, not stay stagnant and go out of business. But many people still cannot accept Korea can make beautiful and reliable cars. I take these people are projecting their inability to improve themselves onto something they used to hate: "If I cannot improve myself, so do you". Selfish ignorant mindset to me. Hint: even Range Rovers are improving their reliability, still long way but surely improving.
Your RUclips reviews are always covered by Micah Muzio and Lyn Woodward. How about more diversity and include more of Mike Danger? He’s just as good as those two.
But this doesn’t use Hyundai fwd platforms If anything you should be wowed by the fact that Hyundai could do something like this. Not every Japanese brand even the biggest one is fortunate enough to have the kind of R&D and engineering Hyundai has
just shows you have no money at all lmao watching videos on cars for sub-median annual income losers with $10K in credit card debt. What are you 50 and have never flown first class yet? Keep posting comments haha more users mean more RSUs for me
I’m done with anything Hyundai has to do with. We had a bad experience. And the customer service is terrible. Not taking responsibility for there product.. it’s sad because we like the way they look and drive until close to 100,000 miles.
Hyundai dealer service in the United States is generally poor. U.S. dealers need training and support to improve their professionalism and customer service to Korean levels. American-made Hyundai and Kia cars have more problems than Korean-made cars. Quality needs to be brought up to Korean levels.
We're DELIGHTed that you appreciate our Mood Curator feature! As we step into 2025, it marks a significant milestone in refinement.
This thing should be a mild hybrid and it should have a passenger massage seat, especially at this price point.
@chad_rs I would agree to that, I would like to see 450-500hp dual message seat rears be nice too.. still love our GV70 amazing car.

It is absolutely gorgeous
But they hid the exhaust smmfh
It’s barely updated yet still looks like it came out yesterday. This car is gonna age well.
IT LOOKS SO GOOOOOOD
I think it is a great SUV. Too bad you have to go to the Hyundai dealer to get it serviced. I think that is a big turn-off for their target market.
That’s a minor problem
Because the car matters more than the brand
Besides you can have Genesis pick up your car and drop off a loaner.
There are a lot of standalone Genesis delearships plus you don’t even have to go to delearship. They can drop off a loaner and pick up ya car for service. Keep living in the pass.
Your wrong
Very very wrong. Genesis have their own stand alone concessions
Why does that matter? Snob much?
I am not sure about its reliability, but darn, that's a stunning looking car
definitely no lexus level of reliability, but current Genesis is above average reliability wise for an entry luxury brand
I’m sure this car can last 10 years without any major issues. I have a 20 g90 with 76k miles. No issues and nowadays who even keep cars for over 15 years ?
Still has much better reliability and maintenance than the Germans for sure.
@@ezrapardede1921its reliable just as lexus , probably not above average its above good
I actually went from Lexus to Genesis this month. It’s not a Lexus…but main it’s not a slouch either. I can’t complain.
That matt paint is unreal...this is THE best looking SUV on the road in my opinion. Ultimate road trip vehicle...
The interior goes perfectly well with the lady. Georgeous!
Can't wait to see the next generation of their cars
The comment on the seats. I don't have this car, but I'd imagine they will "break in" over time. My Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit had hard seats and it took about 3 months for them to break in, and now they are great!
Fantastic video Lyn!😸
There is a direct way to shut off the lane keep assist with a long press to the button on the dashboard.
Is the glare from HUD still present under certain light angle?
Interior looked better before restyling
atleast it's still more special and build better than most supposedly luxury brand
I say in a GV70 and it wasn’t even the top model yet the interior felt so solid. genesis material usage is top notch, I would buy the GV80 in a heartbeat if it came in a higher performing flavour.
16mpg for the 3.5T in the city is an absolute joke. It’s gorgeous though.
"Smells better than your kid's feet" high praise indeed!
Response to your next request to test drive a Genesis? "Two words & they're not 'kid's feet'". 😂
(love the humor)
Lane keep assist is not buried in the settings, just hold the auto steering button.
How do they get away with no spare tire 🛞?
New on earth?
@@billyc2730 I’m a alien
I hear you. Typical these days. Guess: Less weight = higher mileage and every 10th counts.
Looks great! Is it already available for purchase?
Massage seat?
Gas mileage, Type of gas and when will it be available?
Poor, premium and soon.
Lol. Why is you testing trunk head-room? 😊
Does it come with wireless android auto ?
"The Smell Is On." is my new favourite phrase. Was that Emme Hall in the passenger seat?
Finally a decent steering wheel but whats with the 2 tone trim on the wheels. Prefer it to be monotone.
Maybe next time go with the orange jumpsuit?
The song they used for this vid is soo soothing
Good review. To my ears, the music was annoying and slightly haunting
Also shout out to Lyn coming in with the drip 💧 🙏
Better than gle😅😅😅
There is a one button shut off. On the steering wheel. 😊
if only it was a hybrid or plug in!
heard they are working on hybrid powertrains.
Almost G90 turf. colors are great.
Awesome SUV
Does anyone else think these don't age well looks wise?
NOBODY else thinks so.The GV80 is one of the best looking mid-size SUVs, simple.
@@anthonyesiemokhai1603 I think it looks great too. But I already looks outdated to me.
They said they will not change design drastically like Hyundai. It will be more timeless luxury design.
This refresh will age much better than the lauch edition. The pre-refresh model looked dated from when it was released. I like how Genesis refresh their models, unlike Acura and Lexus that barely make any noticeable changes, especially with their interiors.
5 year resale value isn't as good as some of the competition. There has been issues with the GV70 (which I have) and the GV80
There’s problems with Toyota tundra driveshaft and ford engine and every other car manufacturer
Hard disagree on the resale value vs competition, the German brands resale value take a nosedive once they’re closer to the end of warranty, I mean averaging around a 40-65% drop

Better check again. Nothing depreciates faster than the German’s offerings.
@@bobbrown8361very well said.
Visible rear wiper is a fail.
Track pad is silly.
Beautiful looking vehicle. I test drove one and it was incredible.
Lyn......coveralls? No, No, No, No!!

Whine, whine, whine. She's soo whiney.

Don’t like it. Looks dated. Chrysler Crossfire vibes.

Stop with the diversity angle. This is getting very boring.
Not paying that kind of money for a glorified Hyundai
But this doesn’t use Hyundai fwd platforms
If anything you should be wowed by the fact that Hyundai could do something like this. Not every Japanese brand even the biggest one is fortunate enough to have the kind of R&D and engineering Hyundai has
Braindead reasoning
just shows you have no money at all lmao watching videos on cars for sub-median annual income losers with $10K in credit card debt. What are you 50 and have never flown first class yet? Keep posting comments haha more users mean more RSUs for me

American-made Hyundai and Kia cars have more problems than Korean-made cars.
Quality needs to be brought up to Korean levels.
I can highly recommend Genesis brand. If I buy SUV, may consider GV70. And for Sedan, G70
