      @@NEVEREVERMIND1 this is my main dilemma right now as well. Not sure whether to go for 2022 Lexus NX (350h/350 turbo) or GV70 2.5T Prestige. For someone like me size actually matters, generally speaking I prefer smaller cars and in this particular case NX is slightly smaller than the GV70 but with everything else it's hard to decide which vehicle to go for. Warranty is important and Genesis definitely wins that but I usually lease cars for 4 years and then return them so not too crazy over that aspect.

    I agree with whatever you said except for the placement of gear dial and infotainment controller. I believe that's exactly where they should be. Reasons: 1- you are not continuously using the controler for infotainment system so every now and then a little bit of reach to change a setting won't hurt. 2- I have a MB glc and has a touchpad like lexus, it's located within your reach when resting your arm on the arm rest, and every few min or seconds maybe, you accidentally touch it and something changes in the system. So I believe it's much better when the controler is a little farther.

    Volkswagen does the same thing with requiring you to get the Premium trim line to get leather seats or ventilated seats on the Atlas Cross Sport. It makes no sense, because the most likely need for the ventilated seats is for the leatherette seats that are in every trim level other than Premium.

Regardless, it seems to be a well built SUV and I like my 3 spoke wheel better than the 2 spoke wheel. I could not find one with the red or tan interior which I wanted but over all I am pleased with the car overall. It has high tech galore. The 3.5 twin turbo is a strong engine along with the AWD it is probably the best well designed and unknown SUV out there. I hope it lasts as long as my 2013 Genesis Coupe.

      Well, I totally misspoke... of course there was a Genesis G80 and G90 before the G70. I think what I was thinking was: the G70 was the first car that indicated Hyundai had full confidence to launch the Genesis brand separately (with the G70 Hyundai started requiring dealers, kinda sorta, to have separate facilities for the Genesis "brand", a transformation that has had its bumpy moments and is still going on, as I understand it).

    I agree fully with your dislikes on the 2.5T Advanced. I did not want the 3.5T, nor the Sport package, so I had to settle for not having heated rear seats and heads up display. Those are the only two things that I really miss. Because of that, I can say that I am not totally satisfied with owning one. I would have probably gone with the M-B GLC300 if they had been available this past year. One more dislike I have is in the back with the exhaust ports coming through black diamond pattern fascia. The GV70 Electrified is so much cleaner looking. So is the GV80.

My dislikes are the stop/start, don't use it, and mileage, but I expected it with the 3.5 TT. Otherwise, in Sport Prestige trim, you get a lot. Comparable spec'd BMW/Audi/Mercedes are $5-10K more with shorter warranties. Love the design, fit and finish are excellent, I would buy it again in a heartbeat. Now they need dealerships, but the concierge service for three years is very nice.

      He must have auto-hold on as well. I've noticed there is a slight judder if you have auto hold on as you have to tap the gas pedal to turn the car back on and move. With auto-hold off, releasing the brake starts the car and you are starting off from a slow idle before applying the gas so no jerking.

      There's a reason to their madness. The bigger screen has factory navigation. Android/Apple wanted to use their navigation instead and ditch Hyundai navigation. Hyundai said hell to the naw! They want to keep their navigation. And what people don't know is that the Korean brands controlled their own technology. They don't use a 3rd party to build their infotainment technology. That's why most cars that have wireless Auto/Carplay now, don't have factory navigation. Which I prefer to have in case I lose signal on my phone driving in a rural area. That is why Hyundai have wireless Carplay/Auto on their smaller 8 inch screen because it don't comes with factory navigation. Hopefully, they will come to an agreement to include the wireless feature across the board. My friend just bought a new Sonata with the 8 inch screen. He was shocked that he has wireless Carplay/Auto. He jokingly said that he's glad that he have some luxury features in a poverty spec! Lol.

      So connecting a wire takes down the luxury feel huh. So connecting your Tesla model S charger takes away the luxury feel ? Connecting your 200 inch roll up TV screen to the wall takes away the luxury feel ?

    The idea is for you to keep your hands on the wheel - therefore teaching you to use the steering wheel controls for all functions. That’s why the screen is set a bit further out of reach and the gear selector and the infotainment knob aren’t switched around. #TheMoreYouKnow 🌈

    There's 1 thing you didn't mention You can't get the back lighting on the doors on the top most highest trim level they put that goofy carbon fiber inserts instead of the back lighting. At least they should offer it on a option but I thought you did a very good job on the other stuff as well I didn't know about the auto shut off feature I was thinking about buying one but not if you can't disable that feature.

      I’m not aware of any vehicle in which one can disable the engine auto shut-off feature. However, after driving a Mercedes with this “feature” for going on six years I don’t have any issue with it. Every time I start the engine, I now automatically, as in totally subconsciously, turn off this feature right at the get-go. It’s become so automatic, I honestly don’t even realize I do it!
      I’ve even tried to bribe Mercedes technicians to disable this feature, but to no success. I believe it’s done in order to get more favorable mileage efficiency results, although in the real world I can’t see it making any significant change in your mileage - unless that is, if you spend most of your commute literally stuck in stop and go traffic. The real down side to this feature is the additional wear and tear on the engine from the repeated stopping and starting.

      You can disable the auto stop by a push of a button on the lower dash. Surprisingly my 2.5t works smoother then the X5 I had. And much smooher then the GLE I had.

    I think the car you’re driving has an issue cause my Alfa Romeo I just traded in for the gv70 had the same issue. I traded it in for the gv70 before I had the dealership fix it. But the auto start works really fluid for it.

    • @SEJ3333
      @SEJ3333 2 роки тому

      I've had mine since September 2021 and while at first I was concerned about this happening, it just doesn't. Even if you do mistakenly turn the wrong dial the resistance of the dials is different so you know it immediately. The gear dial takes more effort and won't budge when you would turn it with the lighter effort you'd use for the other dial. This vehicle really has no downsides though some try really hard to find some. Love my GV70!

    The rigid options packages is what’s holding me back from getting a GV70. I want the 2.5t with all the options of the sport prestige package but with 19” wheels instead of 21” and road preview adaptive suspension with rear heated seats, HUD, But nope. The suspension is only available on 3.5t. And HDA2 is only available on 2.5t with the sport prestige model - really dislike the sport appearance package. So frustrating. And the dealership experience sucks. These annoyances seem US-specific

  • @Candisias

    I’d have to agree with the placement of the shifter and the toggle for the infotainment system. I’ve accidentally pressed the parking button because I thought I was on the toggle knob. I have the 2022 GV80 with the Prestige Signature package. Great vehicle…I don’t mind the non-wireless Apple CarPlay option. I actually like using the genesis navigation option because I can see the directions in my HUD, I couldn’t see the directions from my phone into HUD. If someone knows how to fix that, hit me up! I’ve only had the GV80 for a week. LOL. I did think it was weird the GV70 didn’t have those basic options that the 3.5T has, so I agree. In my GV80, with the ACC on, I BARELY feel it shut off and on, and there’s definitely not a jerk. That’s weird your tester did that. Overall, I LOVE my GV80. Wouldn’t pick a different vehicle….

    If you want to protect your engine you need to turn off the auto engine stop/start every time you start the car. I think virtually every car defaults to that feature so just like putting on your seat belt you need to hit the off button. I think head up display is way overrated.

    It's such a shame because Hyundai before the Germans got there lol had a great vehicle with Apple and Android carplay and Android auto and Apple carplay that was wireless and just worked I had an Infinity sound system that was great I had window shades and my sonata in 2015 with a great car could have handled better yeah but for the money I bought a beautiful car for $25,000 with my military discount and I got the limited model with a great car and I don't think I'm ever going to be able to get something equal to it anyway in the same price such a shame cuz I really like Hyundai and everybody seems so happy that we got the Germans but I'm very disappointed about it because they downgraded Hyundai in order to make a luxury brand so they actually took the design of my 2015 Hyundai sonata limited and used it for the Genesis g80 and because of that it took all the features out of hung night and stuck them in Genesis all of the best features the heated steering wheel the window shades in the back seat the heated and cooled seats in the front the heated seats in the rear my limited had everything now they put a 1.6 l engine with a turbocharger on The limited version of the sonata which is a bad joke nothing more than a launcher should have a 1.6 l motor as it's disrespectful to somebody who's paying $30,000 or more for their car 😡
