The new GV80 look wayyy better than the previous one! Inside and out! That front mouth and that interior!
You are so spot on the money!
I’m really feeling the color
Does it still have the soft close fours and the automated side sun shades.
Not a fan of that display. It looks like it’s skewed a little right from the driver’s perspective.
@@Listman11what are your thoughts on the new Chevy traverse displays compared to this
Watching this during work. I have no regrets!😂
Heck yeah! Thanks man!
I’m not the biggest Korean brand fan, but I’ll give Genesis credit on this one! Looks great. They’re the only auto maker that seems to make drastic changes year after year.
Agreed! The constant/ drastic change to me is a bit concerning. I get that car makers need to refresh and keep cars up to date but it shouldn't be as frequently as hyundai does. It's also evident their design language or features likely don't last or get dated quickly.
Thanks for sharing that honest opinion.
Exactly, but I’m not sure why this qualifies as a drastic change. It isn’t IMO. Good design doesn’t need frequent or drastic changes.
Liking the refresh. Nice color, the rims looking sharp, interior got a nice upgrade too
They really nailed it for sure Matt
A Raiti's Rides at 9AM? What a way to start my day!
Heck yeah David!
Hello dear , how are you ?
That's super sharp!! Always enjoy how prompt and thorough your reviews are! 👍👍👍
Thank you for taking the time to say that
Woo-hoo! Joe, this Genesis GV80 is the Apostle to the Luxury SUV's!
Heck yeah Luis
@@RaitisRides Thanks
Joe, thanks for your great review! I think that you may be mistaken on the front armrest storage bin. That shallow top tray comes out and there’s tons of storage underneath the tray.
You are very correct!
Never can get enough of the food references! Great review! Also, the Ultimate Warrior!! My favorite wrestler growing up!
Oh heck yeah! The good old days!
Always love your videos, Joe! Such a great personality! 😊
Sweet sweet ride!! On throttle! Thanks Joe and Lori
Love that interior -- the wheel especially. One of the best interiors in recent memory on RR
I totally agree with you!
I would prefer a different interior color.
Hey joe this genesis GV80 this is awesome SUV
I’m so glad that you think so Mark!
The most hilarious episode of the Snake Pit was when the Honky Tonk Man hit him repeatedly with his guitar. Allegedly, it was supposed to be a fake and break apart, but it was a real guitar. You have to watch the interview about it! lol! Great review as always. This interior is incredible!
Thanks for letting me share it with you Mickey!
great job bro we enjoy to see you always
That is so wonderful!
Thank u for bringing this to us Joe (and team), hope you are able to bring us a review of the coupe version of the GV80. Really excited about how Genesis has been evolving over the years this looks stunning.
I will have that coming soon Jordan!
You know, when Raiti releases a video mid day, he has one coming down the pipleine, too 😏By the way, Joe, you been killing it as usual, man 👍🏻
Thanks for having my back Chris!
@@RaitisRides My pleasure Joe 🙏
The paint…….New wheels……..Front fascia on the outside are an upgrade. The removing of the tailpipes is a downgrade although I suspect that it’s a preparation for the GV80 electric variation in that way they can use the rear bumpers for both models saving a manufacturing step.
The interior is definitely sumptuous but not a fan of the infotainment set up in general I do not like those endless screens that go the length of the vehicle. The glare on them in full sunlight is bad.
Nice vehicle but when it’s all said and done I’d still go with the MDX Type S. Definitely not as luxurious on the inside but that Luxo-sport style is still a winner. It has better performance……..Messaging Seats…….Air Suspension and a 30 speaker B&O sound system all for about $5-6K cheaper.
Ver good commentary
Amazing review Joe.
Thanks for letting me bring it to you!
This one looks stunning can’t wait for getting one!!!
You will love it!
Fantastic V6, great color combo, and full of amenities. You could take the greatest fun family trips in this!
I am so glad that you are all about this one Suzanne!
Wow! This is gorgeous, that green is sublime! And that tan interior? 👌
I know right!
Joe and Lori and Steve keep up the good work real true and I love the video 👍
You are the man my brother!
Love this vehicle and that awesome color. To the Door panels Joe! Great video and awesome job Lori ❤
I am so glad that you enjoyed this one.
❤ Thank you, Joe and Lori! ❤️
They win for sure 🔥🔥🔥 Genesis all day
I am glad that you dig this one Jay!
Wow, this vehicle is amazing. That exterior color and interior color 🔥
No matter what car your videos are about you get an instant "like" from me always. Good vehicle info along with some entertainment are a guarantee.
That is fantastic! I can't do it without your support!
I love this car so much, its so beautiful, inside and out, I don't care what anyone says, but. they're at the same level with Mercedes
I agree with you!
Wow, that screams luxury all around, btw I believe it comes with augmented navigation with live feed replacing the speedo and tachometer
Beautiful car. Is Genesis still making the shifter flip into a crystal ball? It looks nice, but I'd be afraid if it ever breaks/jams.
Only on the GV60
@@RaitisRides Thank you!
Hi Joe I love this SUV so much. You should get it. Nice to see a "Lori Cameo" there in the side Chrome Sill.
I think you you are so very right!
My next new Genesis……although I may hold off for the Coupe’! Raiti’s, love your reviews always. Just 1 Snaffuu with this review though. You can lift the shallow shelf in the center front armrest, to expose a nice & deep storage compartment……….for your Twinkies or what floats your boat that day!😉😁. Keep up the great work and can’t wait for the Coupe review!
Couldn't have said it better! Smooth drive, flexing in luxury - that's our forte. You've highlighted some of our favorite features.
That is so fantastic! Thank you so very much!
Yes of course Joe & can't wait to afford one.
Spot on the money!
That material on the dash and centre console is basalt weaving not wood.
Looks and feels much more nicer than the newspaper wood trim.
Great review 👍👍👍👍
Nice video nice car Joe
Thanks Marcus for letting me share it with you!
A 70's "You're so vain" and 80's WWF wrestling reference. Outstanding! Oh yeah, the Genesis review also very good. Recently got a 2023 G70. Love what Genesis brings to the table.
Man thank you I’m working on reviewing this model a Lexus and 4 runner to see which one to buy
I love this car!!!
I’m so glad that you are loving this one Robert
I really like the grill design and the powertrain setup.
They did a great job with those.
My grandmother used Ben-Gay and I still remember the smell and taste.
I wouldn't buy one, but I would lease one for sure.
Thanks for the review Raitis ride team 👍
You are so very welcome!
Beautiful!
I used to be a Demuro guy, but Raiti's more consistent and objective when reviewing a ide range of vehicles. Keep up the great work man.
You and Lori are always great to watch.
I just want to point out that the storage box between the front seats is way larger than you showed us. You forgot to remove the tray 😂
You are correct!
loving that matte color and such a beautiful interior.
You have great taste!
That first layer in the center console is detachable to reveal more storage.
Crazy he didn't realize this.
You are right!
It is so craziness!
Beautiful car thanks for the review...When will you be reviewing the Coupe because in the auto show it was a hit
That will be coming in a couple months.
So nice!!! I wish I was able to afford this for my mother and the Coupe for me!
How come it says 3.5t on the tailgate and you refer to the motor as a 3.3t did they downsize the engine from last year
I am hearing some complaints about the driver seat comfort and that the seat is hard. Really liked my Jag FPace seats for 14 hour drives, but looking to move to the GV80 or GV80 Coupe. Any comments on seat comfort Joe?
They have totally reinvented the genesis GV80 also joe is this RWD or AWD
It is AWD
@@RaitisRides ok ok
Hey Joe awesome review brother keep up the hard work! I think this is a nice looking SUV to buy. When you have a big size family
I think you are so right Tyler
I think they leave the rear wiper there because they house the button to open the rear hatch in the base of the rear wiper. They'd have to find another place to put the hatch opening button that is hidden if they wanted to keep the same aesthetic.
They need to move it.
Check under that tray in the center console and you will find a lot more storage. 🙂
I why get rid of the exhaust display? I also like the previous rim style, but overall, clean. I just need to decide on if i should go with this or the 2025 Tahoe 🤔
Absolutely waiting for the coupe!!!
Heck yeah Jeff!
I believe that shallow part of the center console is just a tray and it's removable
Love your review of the GV80! Do you have one for the 2025 GV 80 coupe in the works?
It will be coming soon.
BUST CREAM over the napa leather 😂...Joe is hilarious!
Thanks for letting me share the laughs and the SUVs with you!
When does the coupe come out??
Nice
I’m glad you like this one!
Always love walking up to my 2021 GV80. Does the 2025 have wireless android auto? Looks great!
That is a great question!
@@RaitisRides Yes it has Wireless Android Auto and Car play
Omitting the exhaust tips and all that chrome......huge mistakes. Big miss there.
I agree with you there!
Joe in audition you didn't check the armrest more thoroughly... that top tray comes out and it's pretty deep my brother 😎
That is what I discovered after the fact.
Man only if I could afford this. Very nice and sharp looking car
I know how you feel!
For the middle armrest I think you can take out the top trade and it will have more space.
You are very correct!
Dial gear shift proves they got something right.
You are so very right about that
looks very nice - wondering how it will hold its value in 5 years time vs BMW x5?
I love the What-a- Burger reference, but you missed an opportunity not shouting out Dr. Pepper! That is the drink of Texas 😅
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Oh man that is a good call.
You know it!
Do the door arm rest heat up to like Merc?
Only the center one.
I’ve been waiting on this one
I hope it was worth it!
Great looking Suv. Joe, I fully respect that people seem to love Suv's, but they are not for me. I enjoy driving sedans and hatchbacks. They are fun to drive, but still practical. Maybe when my hips do not work, but until then, no suv for me.
Best in class in my opinion
I’d like to see this offered in a sport trim with the 400 hp hybrid 3.5tt, actual quad exhaust tips with a dual mode exhaust and brushed aluminum instead of chrome accents.
Needs wood veneers.
I’ll pass on that one
Enough grill for two!
Do you like it
dang, Joe, did you pinch your middle finger in the door frame?
Nope I dropped a starter on it.
It looks great but what about reliability? Rumors say there are a lot of issues. Is it really worth the money and hassel of repairs?
Great job -- I rather have an Acura MDX or RDX --- should have tested it off-road
Sounds good to me!
Is it 3.3T or 3.5T?
It's good to hear that the GV80 can handle these Fort Worth potholes, lol. I may have to look into getting one of those. Thanks for another great review!
Woah Joe Raiti in Ft. worth?! I have a 2022 Kia K5 EX if you'd like to review it 😎😎
Just last week. Sorry I missed you!
pretty sure the center arm rest console has a removable tray and much larger storage underneath
That center console storage part comes out to have a deeper storage space
Great review otherwise!!
Genesis is doing beautifully
I think you are so right!
Guys THIS IS A TREMENDOUS vehicle! I TOTALLY DIG IT! ( Thank you L G RAITTI, You,re a genius, a dare doll, and a LADY! Thanks for all you do!)See you guys on another ride, Sharing this video.
Joe. I DIG the vehicle's colors.
You are the best my friend!
I am right there with you!
@@RaitisRides Joe . Thanks I try.
nice
I’m glad you like this one
Glad they redid the steering wheel!
Welcome to our City!!!
Thank you so mich
A genesis logo on the headrest would be a better touch.
I like the way that you think!
It's beautiful yasssss I love luxury suvs ❤❤❤
Thanks for letting me share it with you!
The Genesis and Lexis refreshes actually make me like the look of luxury brands
That is so exciting to hear!
I don't think the passenger has massaging seats. The button is missing and I only saw it on driver. 2024 model was the same way.
Thanks for your intel Erik!
Is that the Botanical Garden parking lot in Fort Worth?
You are spot on the money Matthew! Great eyes man!
The closing..”my ninja”🤔🤔
Welcome to dfw TX 👍
I sold my gv80 few weeks ago. Bad fuel economy, hard seats on long trips, otherwise pretty good car.
The center console is deeper you have to remove the cover
