    I just got my 2 x 3.5TT GV70's top trim 2 weeks ago one in Mauna Red and one in Makalu Grey and they are so nice to drive. They look so much better in real life then watching them on youtube and for the price compared to other brands it is worth it.

    You get used to the shifter dial pretty fast. I realized its actually much better for when you are in a tight spot and need to do a multiple point 180 or parallel parking. Also your bag or jacket will never get caught on a shifter, always happens when picking my backpack from passenger side in a hurry in other cars.
    Also not mentioned here but if you hold the parking camera button down for a few seconds and follow the instructions, the GV70 will side scan a parking spot and can do auto self parallel park, hands free.
    Another option many don't mention is in the menu for seat adjustment options you put your height and weight in and it will auto adjust the seat for the best healthy posture for your back and neck.

    My iPhone 12 Pro Max fits fine in the wireless charging cubby. I don't think future Pro Max's got any bigger, but I didn't check. I actually secured a wireless CarPlay adapter in there as well. It all fits nicely and completely out of the way.

Features and specs presented + all competitive cars are listed in the description. Just sub'd! Looking forward to watching every video. Good luck with the channel.

      @donr8773 10 месяцев назад

      @amigatommy7 Thanks, I was leaning towards the 4 cylinder but past knowledge guides me to the 6 cylinder. It doesn’t have to work as hard for the same level of performance. Years ago buyers would chose, for instance, a V6 Chevrolet truck over a small block V8 only to discover the V6 really didn’t return the fuel economy that they were expecting.

    Until you have to deal with Hyundai's abysmal service. If anything goes wrong be prepared to wait weeks if not months for parts and unsatisfactory work. Beautiful design, yes, lovely craftsmanship, yes, engine reliability, yes, electronics and drivetrain is where the problems on these arise. eLSD issues are all over the forums. Had one, never again!

    I just bought a 2023 2.5T GV70 Sport Prestige about 3 weeks ago. Looking at this video for the 2024 model, it looks like the 2023 and 2024 models are identical.

      There was no change other than they packaged more options for certain trims for 2024, the Advance trim gets19inch standard now and Lexicon sound system along with the full digital display I believe. I've been hearing the 2025 will have a new Art Deco interior that is also planned for the g80 update, as well also a slight change to front and rear. Its been spied testing in on the road under a wrap.

    I would buy it. I like it very much. More than anything else I've seen... Though I don't like that intense red I would choose the blue navy colour but not also on a green car but on a white... I also like a genesis I saw here which was totally orange... Does this orange colour comes to smaller models like this one here?

    • @OpticalAutomotive
      @OpticalAutomotive  Год назад +1

      The only orange I’ve seen is on the concept model of the GV80 coupe. Not sure if the color will make it to the production model

    I’ve never owned one or Testro one but from what little bit I have looked up I thought the 0 to 60 was quite a bit faster than your claimed 7.2. I thought it was around 5.8 to 6 anyway just something I noticed.

  • @33sarny
    @33sarny Год назад

    That 0-60 is quite down from the 2022 model that had a 5.9. Also, MPG was 22-28 in 2022.

      5.6 seconds in other reviews as well as my 2.5. I have the same car, 2023, but with the blue grey interior. It’s well-designed and a terrific piece of machinery. My previous car was a 2013 Audi A6 sedan which also did 0-60 in 5.6. Very different engines, but the acceleration feels the same.
