Genesis is so severely underrated. I've said this more than once, but I stand by this. Their cars are actually incredible and people who call them just Hyundais have never driven either company's cars.
My mom felt the same about Genesis and only wanted to check out BMW and Mercedes. Finally convinced her to also test drive the Genesis g80 and she bought it just 2 weeks ago.
Ton where I am, but have a close dealership plus wealthy (for the state) city. Still, kinda neat given in the South so lot of American only/truck people and they've managed to get a serious foothold.
@@boredashell666666 My IS had rodent wiring damage no independent shop wanted to touch, and 2 dealers spent a combined 13 hours a labor trying to figure out but could not. So I tossed my IS and ended up back in a Audi after a decade of a Japanese binge. I had 3 Acuras that all had much worse problems than my prior Audis, and the Lexus but I'm not blaming Toyota for the rodent damage, the car was relatively good to me before that. But after getting my B9.5 S4, it's like a space ship compared to the IS. Turbos are fun lol. I don't blame you for liking the Genesis more. The IS is a seriously underrated chassis, with some old school charm. But the 350 is lacking power by 2024 standards. I remember when the IS350 first came out. It blew everything in the class out of the water with it's HP numbers and acceleration. Not anymore, it's in last place. It's slower than a Audi A4, a lot less tunable, while being the same price.
Exactly what I rented thru Turo for my birthday earlier this year for a few days. I absolutely 💯 loved it. Loved it sooo much even thought about getting one after the rental. It was same color and everything had about 13000 miles on it!! A downright sleeper in all areas!!! Loved It so damn FUN to drive and picks up and GOESSSSS
Such a nice car, father was considering it but chose against it due to the subpar mileage. That being said I think he has regrets sometimes cause Genesis has really been stepping it up as of late. And what a wonderful Blue, truly the best color
Thanks Chris, that was a lot of fun. The G70 looks like my kind of sports car--stable, poised, and controllable, while letting you do some hooning without scaring you to death. Reminds me of my Miata, with much higher performance. Nice! You remain one of my favorite reviewers. All the best.
I don't want those badges. Those are beneath Genesis or even Hyundai. Spoken as an Australian though, ours are actually made in South Korea, not Alabama.
@@paulklp8262 It’s the opposite in America (at least the car guys I know). People view hyundai/kia/genesis as a polished turd. But that’s nice you get the real stuff out of SK rather than the Alabama stuff. The Japanese brands are just so much better here in the US
Great review!! You help me make my decision in purchasing a 2024 G70 3.3t Sport Prestige AWD. One test drive and I was in love with this vehicle and $10,000 less then the BMW M340i was a no brainer.
I had the opportunity to drive one of these last week and it was such a great car! The one I drove was a 2.5T AWD, and even with that motor it had plenty of power, I was pleasantly surprised. It handled really great, and was such a blast! I noticed you can use the lane centering feature without cruise control on, I thought that was a bit odd. I would love to buy one of these when I get my next car, fingers crossed!
Great review. So many reviewers focus on exterior, interior and day-to-day driving experience. Those are good too, but you found a nice niche: have fun driving. Thanks for sharing!
That fact that one can get 0-60 in 4.6 secs, features that are only available when you spend $60k+ with the germans all while getting to 100k miles for the cost of what it does of your typical domestic sedan is a value beyond 99% of cars out there.
My love for the Hyundai Genesis is what made me buy a g70! As I started earning money Hyundai discontinued the Genesis line then I started earning money and Genesis brand came out!
In Canada this now has a 12.3" 3D digital gauge cluster, which is so necessary considering we've had full digital gauge clusters on tons of Hyundai models for years now.
I really hope they don’t kill this car off like with the Stinger. I hope there’s enough love for this car to keep it getting new life throughout the years.
Have you ever considered doing a motorcycle channel or just in depth POV reviews like you do? I personally think people would love it because I’m sure there are a lot of bike people that watch your channel. Keep up the great work!
Why the heck do you guys do "audio tests"??? The sound is picked up by your mic. Encoded however. Compressed into the video. Then played back on my headphones. What the heck do you prove????
Whats with the half digital dash screen? Whoever came up and agree to this should be fired from Genesis They should have at least put the analog speedometer or tacometer in the center and put 2 digital screens on both sides similar to the Ford Taurus
I would rather this than a fully digital screen with a bunch of graphics that make me feel sick to look at. I real analog setup would be much preferred. Full screens as gauges and cabin conrrols is just here to cut corners and people will eat it up anyway. I can't stand it, or society at this point.
I have the same screen setup in a 2021 genesis gv80, and it looks better than the full digital displays I've seen in other cars and the fully loaded version of my car it'll help keep it's look overs the years as well and the font is beautiful that's used on the analog.
@DenitoX7 no it means I bought a 4runner last month. My buddy works at a Genesis dealer and took one home I drove it and I don't want to lose money on my 4runner purchase
I think compact sport sedans are cool and all, but one thing that always turns me off with these is when the rear space is abysmal… if I was thinking compact sport sedan at that point, I’d just get a coupe. then, have a bigger sedan/midsize if needed.
Seems like a lot of people who do reviews complain about the “dealership” experience for Hyundais. Any owners that can comment on its really that bad? I have a co-worker that had a stinger GT and now a G70 and has loved both.
I have an Elantra N and most dealers here in GA where I live are great. But on vacation in Texas, had a dealer take it on a joyride and wrecked it. Not happy with Hyundai at the moment, but overall I'd say it's been pretty good.
I think most of the complaints about the dealership experience come from people who buy their Genesis at a Hyundai dealership. Definitely buy your Genesis at a dedicated Genesis dealership or at least a duel Hyundai/Genesis dealership. that’s what my dealership was and they have an entirely separate service department and concierge service for the Genesis side of things and it always feels more lux than the peasants getting their Hyundais serviced lol. also when I was car shopping I went to my local Lexus dealership to look a GS350 and my local BMW dealership to look at a 330i. both dealerships wanted upwards of $5,000 in dealership fees, with the GS cost going from $24k to $32k otd. at the Genesis dealership they charged a flat $700 dealer fee plus tag/title and tax, honestly a super phenomenal experience, buying the car took less than an hour total.
@@buddyholleypoint9032ahhh wordd!!!! Man ik ur irritated sounds like u have an amazing mindset I fasho will get a EN to tag along with my SI 2020 but do u think the EN is overall better than a Type R ? Fl5 ? Dsg vs manual
My 2015 Hyundai Genesis "G80" has an acceptable dealer experience. The Hyundai dealer diagnoses the basic stuff but can't diagnose weird intermittent issues. They need up to a week for diagnosis because there aren't any other Hyundai mechanics in the area besides the two sister dealers. They did deal with my extended warranty for me, which was nice. There are no true Genesis dealers around, although I'd be interested to see if they'd take my car since it's not technically a Genesis until 2017.
i don't think he did it because it's essentially identical to a 2020 hyundai sonata infotainment system. not a bad thing it's actually a good one and it's strikingly simple and easy to use.
@@paulfrompayroll Yeah, but it would be great to see if there are any differences in specific settings, etc. on different OS versions/trim levels. Also, he very often features them. I wrote that comment for him to be aware that are people who watch, and care for, that part of the review.
Thanx for the good review of this car. It is very good. You are right about the stereo. It is just ok. The subwoofers are inadequate, so the bass response from the system is just not good enough for a car at this price point. The bass in a 2013 Accord Sport is better than the bass in this car, which is just sad. Still, overall, a very nice car.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video! Are you able to get the GV80 Coupe e-Supercharger, and put it through its paces exactly like this?! It has the extra power that the G70 lacks but it’s also heavier. I’d like to see how it performs as a potential buyer.

@AthameLover you failed to mention it lacks the power of an "e supercharger". You just said it has the power the g70 lacks. It doesn't "lack" any power from what I've seen.

I’m in between a G70 or a Stinger. Haven’t drove a G70 but have driven a GT2 I like the hatchback of the stinger and the extra leg room but the looks of the G70 have me undecided.
It’s a brilliant car, but it’s getting a little bit long in the tooth. Probably one of the best used car bargains out there. Thanks as always for taking us on the drive!
I really love so much of what Hyundia has done the decade. Look how far they've come. And I love the fact they manufacture pretty much everything in house which gives them ideal quality control standards.
@@CarWavExeI own a one with the i4, Ti Sport Carbon to be exact and they’re super torquey. Pretty good power down low and once in 3rd gear it just keeps pulling (if you’re in D mode.) Got 62k miles on it and engine is still pretty smooth. Side note, there’s a tune by Squadra Tuning. All the reviews say it wakes the engine up more. Making it even much more fun.
@jakekail9562 Maybe off a launch and in comfort... Possibly a little faster from a roll, but the Type R looks better inside and out IMO, more fun to drive, just a sportier and more engaging car to drive. Not really the same class of car though.
Despise the instrument cluster... the lack of symmetry right in front of my face would drive me insane. And it looks like an 18k Nissan Versa. Otherwise fantastic overall package.
You joking right, The old BMW designer is working for them now, that’s why the steering wheel looks like ah BMW🤦🏾♂️. They just using BMW old ideas that’s all..
Owned mine for a year. Amazing car. My only complaint is that it is too quiet. I came from cars with loud exhausts. The aftermarket support for the G70 sucks to be quite frank. There is only one half decent sounding exhaust for the car (ARK) and in my opinion not worth $2k. Honestly sounds like stock to me. I wish borla or other reputable companies like that would make at least an Axelback system. That's all I want, a better sounding exhaust, could care less about any performance gains
Why are 2024 models releasing with tablets jammed into the dash like that? They were doing this in models 10 years ago when they werent designed for touchscreen... now it's just lazy and cheap.
Really wanted to consider this car but the gauge cluster is so wack, don’t understand why the full digital wasn’t available like it is in every other market
Can’t wait until these latest gen models depreciate. As nice as they are, they still depreciate like a Hyundai and are super cheap used for a 2021 or older right now
BMW is $10k more expensive which is why some people probably buy the Genesis. If you want straight line performance the M340i is the gold standard but if you want something that’s fast and fun to drive the Genesis is a great sedan.
Makes absolutely no sense who would buy this. 2024 new "luxury car" and has a worse interior than a 2018 ford mustang. How is it 2024 with no digital dash and a lame excuse for a navigation screen? A Mustang is so much better than this idk why anyone would get it
stupid comment. Not everyone wants ipad screens all over their car in the name of “modernness”. This is the best looking interior in the segment. Plenty of screen, really nice materials, classy and simple layout. It’s perfect, why does more screens always mean better? I really don’t get it
@@mattbrown942 who said more screens? If you're a "luxury" car and you have a 10x more boring average basic interior than a Ford does then you're doing it wrong. No reason why a 40k+ car in 2024 shouldn't have a digital dash
Nice looking car. Low mileage used could be a screaming bargain. Only prob is I can't think of anything more embarrassing than a powered trunk that makes the vehicle owner look so lazy and pathetic.
The M340i is faster and drives better. The S4 has a better awd system, as does the TLX Type S. The AMG C43 has a nicer interior. The S60 recharge is fast yet also efficient. If you’re concerned about the ownership cost when buying a compact sports sedan, you’re not ready to buy a compact sports sedan.

Genesis has definitely made a name for itself these couple of years. Honestly one of my favorite brands now.

@@TheTopherthe Genny wipes that typeR 🤣💩
@jakekail9562 Maybe off a launch and in comfort... Possibly a little faster from a roll, but the Type R looks better inside and out IMO, more fun to drive, just a sportier and more engaging car to drive. Not really the same class of car though.
@@apexcobra.official if we’re talking to Which is the nicer car g70 by a mile brother.
@@apexcobra.official and dude it’s not even close the g70 is wayyy faster I raced a type R on a roll put 20-25 car lengths on him
Will the car upshift automatically when in manual sport plus?
im pretty sure yes, because its not a real “manual mode”
Yes ! G70 owner.
Fantastic car. Even the 2.0T is worth buying IMO
Too bad it's getting discontinued soon :(
Despise the instrument cluster... the lack of symmetry right in front of my face would drive me insane. And it looks like an 18k Nissan Versa. Otherwise fantastic overall package.
Love Genesis, love the g70. But it’s time for a new engine.
Car is getting axed..go to the used market 😢
4.0 twin turbo would be noice !
If only it was sold as a Kia, slightly longer, with a hatchback.... Oh wait
it kind of remind me of an aston martin
That's what every G70 owner pretends they have. LOL.
Good car..too bad its getting axed by the end of the model year or next year😢
Interior looks leagues above whatever in the actual world bmw and their crackhead designers are doing
You joking right, The old BMW designer is working for them now, that’s why the steering wheel looks like ah BMW🤦🏾♂️. They just using BMW old ideas that’s all..
you mean that neue klasse krap ?
Hyundai Kia are the new Toyota Honda. Hyundai Kia EVs are light years ahead of BMW BENZ and AUDI
Owned mine for a year. Amazing car. My only complaint is that it is too quiet. I came from cars with loud exhausts. The aftermarket support for the G70 sucks to be quite frank. There is only one half decent sounding exhaust for the car (ARK) and in my opinion not worth $2k. Honestly sounds like stock to me. I wish borla or other reputable companies like that would make at least an Axelback system. That's all I want, a better sounding exhaust, could care less about any performance gains
You dont have a downpipe and intake ? I definitely would consider this but if AFM support sucks then no
Love my 2019 G70. Only complaint is the tight trunk and back seat. Its not the friendliest family car but its a sacrifice I’m willing to make😂
Let the family walk😅
all good except that 12 mpg LMAOO
I love my genesis best money for what you get.
이것이 한국차입니다
Truth be told that instrument cluster kinda neanderthalish for a 2024 model
Cough. Need coupe cough coupe
The steering wheel they stole from Honda and BMW🤦🏾♂️
Almost like the designers are German.......@@5hunnidCG
I have this car, its amazing! only wish bought a used one because they're like 30k lol
It's a Kia Stinger....wow
Why are 2024 models releasing with tablets jammed into the dash like that? They were doing this in models 10 years ago when they werent designed for touchscreen... now it's just lazy and cheap.
The steering feels wrong and mushi!
Really wanted to consider this car but the gauge cluster is so wack, don’t understand why the full digital wasn’t available like it is in every other market
Yeaaaaaaaaah buuuuuuuttttt it's still a Hyundaiiiiiiiiiiii
Can’t wait until these latest gen models depreciate. As nice as they are, they still depreciate like a Hyundai and are super cheap used for a 2021 or older right now
I wish I was in this price point.
Weird noise from the engine
The turbo whistle perhaps?
Stinger is much better
But it isn't
how exactly?
@@tempestsquall5882 more affordable, hatchback, better design, and designed by masterminds in the car industry.
Meh but the stinger is not "nice" on the inside....road noise is bad in the stinger too
Almost first
zero reason to buy this over a 340i. B58 + ZF8. Nothing better.
Price and warranty are two good reasons
I can think of one; price. Cheapest CPO G20 M340i I can find is about $20K more than a CPO 3.3T. Aren't they a fair bit cheaper brand new as well?
BMW is $10k more expensive which is why some people probably buy the Genesis. If you want straight line performance the M340i is the gold standard but if you want something that’s fast and fun to drive the Genesis is a great sedan.
@@tlf361 you get what you pay for.
Price, warranty, BMW maintenance costs.
Makes absolutely no sense who would buy this. 2024 new "luxury car" and has a worse interior than a 2018 ford mustang. How is it 2024 with no digital dash and a lame excuse for a navigation screen? A Mustang is so much better than this idk why anyone would get it
stupid comment. Not everyone wants ipad screens all over their car in the name of “modernness”. This is the best looking interior in the segment. Plenty of screen, really nice materials, classy and simple layout. It’s perfect, why does more screens always mean better? I really don’t get it
@@mattbrown942 who said more screens? If you're a "luxury" car and you have a 10x more boring average basic interior than a Ford does then you're doing it wrong. No reason why a 40k+ car in 2024 shouldn't have a digital dash
@@BrayZap you’re just being ignorant. The stitching, the materials, the quilt pattern, the layout, all of it is miles ahead of a ford lol
@@mattbrown942 take a look at a mustang premium interior with recaro seats and digital dash. Worlds better
Interior is better than a 2018 Mustang lol.
genesis and lexus are better than BMW and Mercedes
Not in the fun to drive factor. This G70 has bad turbo lag and feels pretty slow when you drive it back to back with other sports sedans like I did.
Interior is pretty mid if I’m being honest don’t look that special
it’s perfect. Classy, simply, not a bunch of ipad screens everywhere. I love it
Lol Atleast it’s real leather unlike BMWs fake leather 🤣
@@jakekail9562 the fake stuff actually looks better after years of use and abuse 😂😭
Honestly if it’s going to cost me $58k to get g70 I would just get a bmw m340i with better interior and technology
A new M340i at 58K will NOT have a better interior or technology. You're buying an absolute base model M340i at 58K
@@Maljey You can buy used for much cheaper that was purchased with upgrade packages
@jones9309 but then you're comparing a new car to a used car. Might as well buy a used s63 amg than the new bmw then and so on and so forth.
Lol bro these cars are from South Korea the absolute best technology in the world.
With 58k you can't buy a new m340i 😂
(Chris)topher says the car is great….. savagegeese mark says this car is hot garbage….. resale values say mark is right..
There’s only ONE problem…it’s a HYUNDAI
Yes, but it's a really good one. A lot of features and refinement for the money compared to other luxury brands
And Lexus a Toyota. And Acura a Honda. What's your point? They're making incredible cars and people like you are the reason why
This guy will be calling lambos a volkswagen
Ya ... and a 911 is just a VW..... 🤡
Lots of bots damn
Nice looking car. Low mileage used could be a screaming bargain. Only prob is I can't think of anything more embarrassing than a powered trunk that makes the vehicle owner look so lazy and pathetic.
Without looking at the badge, it would of fooled me thinking its a bmw. Snazzy color😃
The only reason you would buy a G70 3.3T is because you couldn’t afford any of the German offerings, the TLX Type S, or the Volvo S60 Recharge
That is not the only reason, german options are complete garbage these days. Volvo will never be my pick. It would be between a G80, or an LS500
The M340i is faster and drives better. The S4 has a better awd system, as does the TLX Type S. The AMG C43 has a nicer interior. The S60 recharge is fast yet also efficient. If you’re concerned about the ownership cost when buying a compact sports sedan, you’re not ready to buy a compact sports sedan.
tlx type s literally doesn’t hold a candle to this thing in any regard lmao
@@MrWuggles Only car worth getting over this that you mentioned is an m340i, and those are going to be about 10k+ more
Bro this car is 50 thousand dollars you can certainly get a German car your just hating.
