    Happy Weds to everyone! Hope you all are having a fantastic week! Don't forget if you want to submit your entry to potentially win a BMW M2 CS and support a great cause go to www.omaze.com/RRBMWM2. We've been waiting all year to drive this new GV70 and it certainly didn't disappoint. When Genesis releases an all-electric version of this car, you better believe its going to challenge the Tesla Model Y head on. Its our new favorite pick for now until we drive the upcoming Lexus NX next month!

      @Redline Reviews, I can sum up the new 2022 Lexus NX for you. I’m no journalist but I can confidently say that the NX that no ones even driven yet is already outclassed. Why? Because the nx is just a rav4, which in itself, is just a Toyota, and being a Toyota means it’s automatically outclassed in every comparison metric. Name one Toyota or Lexus product that has ever proclaimed or currently proclaims the title “benchmark” in any segment.
      Compact sedan benchmark? Nope
      Midsize sedan benchmark? nope
      Compact cuv benchmark? Nope
      3 row suv benchmark? nope
      Minivan benchmark? Nope
      Pickup truck benchmark? Nope
      Luxury SUV benchmark?; nope
      Subcompact benchmark? Nope
      Luxury sedan benchmark? Nope
      The answer to this question is that you can’t name one because it doesn’t exist 😆.
      The nx is front wheel drive, because it’s just a rav4. That automatically puts it at a disadvantage vs others. It doesn’t have a torque vectoring AWD that’s any better than SH AWD. It doesn’t have a fast shifting transmission like Honda’s 10 speed or the ZF 8 speed. It doesn’t have a double wishbone front suspension like other players. The AWD system won’t make the back end step out. It’s not gonna have any sort of rear bias. And the power trains being offered, while there are quite a few, are just nothing short of an utter disappointment:
      2.5L I4 203hp (8.2 seconds)
      2.4L Turbo I4 275hp (6.8 seconds)
      2.5L I4 hybrid 240hp (7.3 seconds)
      2.5L I4 PHEV 300hp (6 seconds)
      The performance Lexus quotes clearly shows that It still cannot compete in this segment. The new turbo sounds like it is good power on paper, but so is a cheaper Mazda CX-5 turbo or even a Hyundai Santa Fe / Kia Sorento turbo… the CX5 and Everyone else will run circles around the nx all day.
      Now are the nx hybrids and PHEVs fuel efficient? Without question yes. Will this be reliable? Also unequivocally yes. But those things are not really important here for a luxury brand especially when you spend 50-60K. If you want fuel economy and reliability, go buy a Prius, RAV4, Camry, or corolla for that. Even if you somehow value a luxury brand with fuel efficiency and reliability, you have to give up way too much in many areas. You miss out on the key aspects of a luxury cuv with the nx. Whereas with the other competitors, you don’t really give up anything.
      Compared to the competition like the cx5 turbo, Rdx, gv70, x3, glc, xc60, q5, all of them absolutely destroy the new nx in just about every category shown below. no ifs ands buts maybes ors what-ifs:
      Exterior design
      Interior design
      Materials quality
      Fit and finish
      Luxury
      Technology
      Handling
      Performance
      Comfort
      Braking
      suspension polish
      Chassis dynamics
      weight balance
      The nx isn’t even going to score high or even above average in any of these categories because they know they can’t. The NX is not well rounded and never will be. Or as Alex on autos would say, “the Honda Accord of luxury cuvs”. So there literally is no compelling reason to choose an NX over the other options.
      Heck even the new Hyundai Tucson, Kia Sportage and the new Honda CRV are honestly more exciting products than the new NX.
      So bottom line, prepare to be disappointed with the new Lexus NX. The gv70 is what I call “the true new Lexus NX”. The gv70 is still better than the new nx and I can bet 100% that the NX is not gonna be a luxury cuv benchmark because Toyota and Lexus know that they are incapable of such task.
      So, Redline Reviews, I honestly wouldn’t even bother wasting your hard earned time with the new 2022 Lexus NX. If you’re given the opportunity to drive the new NX, I’d just completely pass on it

      Genesis (and Hyundai/Kia) use ventilated seats, not cooled seats. I had a previous gen G80 and it was the same way. Same as my current Accord also. My wife has a Chrysler Pacifica, which is a piece of junk, but it does have legit cooled seats and they are incredible compared to my Accord and old Genesis. Ventilated seats only pull heat/moisture away from your body rather than actually blowing cold air out through the seat perforations like real cooled seats do. It's pretty interesting if you look at the list of which brands offer ventilated vs cooled seats.

    The reason why the “cooled” seats didn’t feel all that cold is because the seats aren’t cooled, they’re ventilated. They simply blow air through the little perforations in the leather, but it’s not cooled air. It’s just the air that’s in the cabin. If the air conditioning is on its highest setting, the seats will feel much cooler. Unlike some manufacturers who truly offer cooled seats which have a cooling element for the air, Genesis only offers ventilated seats.

      Also the nx350 performance is laughable. 275hp and 317lb ft sounds good on paper but unfortunately a cheaper Mazda CX-5 has the same power levels at a lower price and has a nicer interior and handles way better and it’ll eat the nx350 easily. Plus Lexus said it’ll go to 60 in 6.9 seconds
      Even the most powerful nx is still laughable. A rav4 prime or my v6 Camry performance wise will smoke any new nx and get better fuel efficiency

    • @naveenthemachine
      @naveenthemachine 3 года назад

      @Угон Харлеев 0-60 for the new nx is just 6.8 seconds. We already know that. They aren’t going to underrate their engines like the Germans do. On paper it’s not bad but the Mazda CX-5 will be faster have a better transmission, and handle better. Same goes for the Kia Sorento turbo or the Hyundai Santa Fe turbo.
      But I would just not get the new NX turbo. The only reason I would say otherwise is if it offers a unique power train, such as the v6 out of the Camry or Highlander.

    Absolutely love the GV70 2.5 GV70 300HP sadly we won't get the 3.5 engine yet (saying it as a german)
    The price is awesome for what you get
    A BMW X3 (xDrive 30d 286HP dont mention the m40i 360HP still need 15k-20k for the same setup) with the same setup and engine is like 80k+ € in germany while this masterpiece will be at 54k € full stacked for 2.5 version...
    Can't wait for the release next month to order one

    I’m not that big of a fan of the wheels. They remind me of a waffle iron

      They don’t look terrible in my opinion, but definitely odd. That design wouldn’t be my first choice.

    This alone is proof that the South Koreans are not what they were 10 years ago. They hired the right help whilst maintaining near Lexus reliability. Wake up and do your research people! Genesis has the means to compete with the best from Germany and Japan!

      All it took were European engineers and designers to make it happen. I wonder why that is...?

      @@MrCarGuy true, but you are undermining korean work ethic and vision. also Sang Yup Lee is korean and he is responsible for most of the latest designs. i really think they are the new japanese. and their improved build quality has nothing to do with albert biermann. they simply gotten better from head to toe. it's remarkable how these are well put together. my mind was blown when i sat on g80 and gv80.

    Sofyan's video is another in a long line of excellent reviews for this vehicle. While currently driving a manual G70, I was looking forward to getting this crossover in 2022. Unfortunately, my Hyundai's dealer's service is proving to be abysmal and I'll be looking elsewhere for a new vehicle when the time comes. Genesis needs their own dealer network.

    The thing is with SUV’s is that most of their buyers don’t actually need a car that big. But they do it because it’s on trend. Watching drivers try and park these is bloody hilarious. I drive a Picanto GT, as I don’t have a family. So it’s all the vehicle I need. Buy what you actually need, not to compete with your mates or neighbours 😂😂😂

    Ok, sofyan don't compare a Lexus with a Genesis, not that Lexus is bad it this gv70 it's on other league. Ride, quality materials, design gorgeous, no cheap plastic just pure style.
