  • Genesis GV80 3.5T vs Lincoln Aviator, which one drives better?
    Is the new Genesis GV80 a good choice over the Lincoln aviator?
    In this video I compared the Lincoln Aviator to the first SUV by Genesis, the GV80.

      @Broken Native Quality of American cars has improved a lot in the past 15 years. I drive a 2011 Ford flex 3.5 L twin turbo tunned at over 420 horsepower and 435 lbs of torque, 6 seater leather, 3 sunroofs, etc. At 157,000 miles, it is very fast and sporty, no issues (changed struts because bad roads and headlight bulbs because i drive with lights on at all times), no plans to replace the car yet as they go to 250,000 miles (I take care of my cars with Mobil 1 oil and changing fluids reguarly). I would imagine a 10 year newer Lincoln (not Ford) model would be much better. By the way, I used to be an Acura guy but I switched because I wanted more power and room. Additionally I gave away my 1997 Ford Mustang in running condition (no known issues) at 250,000 miles and that gave me confidence in Ford brand.

    Ok got it, you like the more European look but the aviator is what an American wants is what you’re trying to say.
    I still can’t get over it. “Genesis is better except for space, power, and comfort”. Yea, at 6-3, 230 lbs, and a male (lover of power), I have the aviator. Genesis looks sharp and all but power and room are top of the list priorities for most American men.

    Purchased an Aviator Reserve yesterday, so excited for delivery. Do yourself a favor and give it a test drive, I drive a loaded S90 Inscription and was in the market for an X5 and GLE...until we test drove this! Those cars rear seats don't even recline! The Scottish leather on the Aviator is sublime, and the space and luxury, tech, power, warranty, practicality package...you get for the same to less compared to those smaller vehicles...there's little compromise I promise. It's as impressive as it looks 👌 what sold us is cargo area with 3rd row down. Better than the Armada we traded in!!! In fact better space with or without 3rd row than the Armada!! Perfect for my chocolate lab and my Golden Retriever to be comfortable on trips, and we did captains chairs on the rear for our 2 teenagers. :)

      I know what you mean BoxterBenz. I bought a 2017 Ridgeline because Car and Driver claimed it was quieter than an S Class. It wasn’t. It became quieter after significant sound deadening that I installed. Now I have a Ram 1500 Limited and it is far more quiet than the Ridgeline. Decibel ratings is just one measure of sound. The quality of the sound is not really measured by a device. Glad you found a quiet vehicle and the Lincoln is still a looker.

    Correction on park assist if you actually use the feature you will notice that it does all of the work for you. Gas, brake, and steering into parallel or perpendicular parking. Simply turn on the park assist, find a spot, walk through the on screen prompt of putting the vehicle in neutral and letting go of the steering wheel and brake. It will then ask you to hold the park button and it will do 100% of the work for you using the 360 sensors to ensure proper parking.

    Looking to get a new SUV for the wife...screwed up and looked at the GV80 Friday. Been running through the other dealerships and models this weekend and I think that we realized that we're just wasting our time looking for something else. Now we decided that we're not going down the European route....been there, done that for years and they make great cars, but I'm over the whole $700 oil changes and crap. For the price there is no competition in my opinion. We're kind of going back and forth on deciding if we want to go for the 3.5T Advanced or Prestige package; there are some nice things in the Prestige, but to be honest everything that I really care about is in the Advance package....I'm just not used to not buying something fully loaded. Biggest problem to be honest is that there are zero manufacturer incentives and I enjoy the "game" of negotiating and the dealer is pretty tough because there just isn't any inventory. I'm going to give it a week or two and see how many of these things move and know how much leverage I've got to get them to eat about half of the cost of the additional package.

      @@monkeybearmaxI'll give you the short version....we hit a bunch of dealerships; there was only two GV80's in the Prestige trim and color that we wanted on the entire east coast at the time. Dealerships were marking them up and there is no way in hell that I'd ever do that. We ended up getting a 2022 MDX Advance. Paid $500 over dealer invoice and got KBB for my trade in which was more than I paid for it two years ago....couldn't walk away from that kind of a deal. It's not as fancy as the GV80 is, but it's the wife's car and she loves it. Only thing I hate is the infotainment is a touchpad.
      It's just not a good market to buy in right now. We'll probably hold onto this for about 2 years and trade it in when things settle down. There'll be a lot of updated models out there and I think that the GV80 is going to make some manufacturers step up their game.

      If you like a Hyundai. I am hesitant because nobody know what the resale will be on this, from what i see from the G70 & G80, they home their value like a rock floats in the ocean. This is the reason i will be staying with Lincoln; Additionally, Lincoln will haggle on the price, that $85,000 Lincoln Aviator may have an MSRP of $85,000 but we both know you can get it for $75-$80,000 whereas Genesis will not move on the GV80, the price you see is what you pay, so now Lincoln is less expensive.
      If fact, I looked at the 2021 GV80 and its $85,000 for the top trim, i was looking at an Aviator yesterday and its $87,000, the have some incredible pricing on the new 2020 Aviator fully loaded with top packages with MSRP of $82,000 and will probably pick up for $70,000 new.

    While the guy in the video seems to go into great detail, there’s a lot he glosses over or simply doesn’t mention. I drove both but ended up buying the Aviator. Why? Number one reason was the styling. I don’t like the front end of the Genesis at all. I do like the profile though. But it’s the interior that really turns me off. Too garish for me. Definitely don’t like the screen placement. Too far away from the driver to easily reach and while it’s wide, it’s very short. And speaking of the screen, the driver’s info interface has got to be one of the worst ever. It’s menus are clunky and not intuitive at all. Regarding how it drives, it feels weak most of the time. Only having any power once the engine gets rev’d up. And I felt the ride quality was too harsh.Overall, the vehicle is trying to be something it’s not. While I’m sure there are plenty of buyers out there that love the idea of many commenting that it looks like a Bentley, to me that’s a detractor.
    Regarding the Aviator, it just seems to do everything right. Great ride. Great handling. Powerful. And it’s not trying to be something it’s not.

    Let’s see Lincoln or Hyundai? Hmmm. Yeah I’ll take the Lincoln. Why? Because it’s been around since the early 1910’s, they’re original and unique, they have an amazing heritage, and they’re established. Hyundai will never compete with Lincoln..

    I Loved the Aviator when it came out. I mean I loved everything. But when the G80 came outI was More than Impressed. Now I am hearing the Lincoln is having a lot of Issues on many Models including Aviator. I love the GV80 for their First Luxury SUV IMPRESSIVE!!!

    I’d add the Cadillac xt6 to the comparison. Just bought a 2021 and it’s just as nice IMO...

      I'll take the XT6 over the GV80. The Caddy looks really sharp. In my opinion,, the GV80 is just plain ugly.

      Yep, XT6 is much sharper looking than the GV80. I think the GV80 looks weird.

      Visually, it's all personal opinion, if everyone had the same taste, things would be boring, I can appreciate all three, think they are all good.
