It’s a beautiful more reliable n maintenance is of course cheaper compared to German rivals but it’s acceleration is slower n speed in general is slower to German rivals n it has no ambient lighting :(
The one thing that I really enjoyed, was that you test drove the 4 cylinder version. Most reviewers prefer to test drive the most powerful versions. I really like what you did. I'm a fan! I own the 2019 3.3T Genesis G70. I was given the 2.0 version as a loaner, while mine was in for service. I was surprised by the power of the 4 cylinder version. I hated the start stop system, but was presently surprised by the acceleration!
In my opinion best looking entry luxury cars these days and their top SUV looks like Bentley should look i assume same designer or studio are behind both brands Person in charge of Genesis moved from VAG after all
Genesis easily make the best looking luxury products. The design is elegant and bespoke. Love the colors Genesis offers inside and out. Quilted leather looks so luxurious while also keeping physical controls/knobs which is all I want in my new car.
@@mr.c3939 So basically every Mercedes including 2023 models. I babied my brand new 2012 c300 and all the black paint came off switches that were used and the backing is a white plastic so it looked so terrible. I've owned this G70 for a year now so we will see how it holds up in that regard.
Indeed. UA-cam algorithm doesnt like that, since obviously a lot of people hop out of the video during cinematic shots. Me myself, i loved the old intro format, but u gotta react on the figures :/
A shame this is sold only with that ancient 2.0T in Europe. The 3.3TT is where it's at, but really it should have been updated with the 2.5T like the Stinger.
Oh seriously? Why tho, I mean in US, that's like their biggest selling point. The sophisticated powertrains coupled with bespoke RWD platforms which is simply unheard of from premium Asian brands ...
Real buttons and knobs!! 🙀😿🤧 I'm with you, Thomas. There is an automotive God of ergonomics... Nice styling all around. Certainly the exterior has elements of the Germans' competition with even a hint of the Bangle butt of earlier times.
As much as I like the facelifted G70 (especially inside) it has one major flaw - option policy. In every proper premium brand you can combine (almost) every option with every trim, every drivetrain, every wheel style etc. you can spec a car that is truly yours. Not in Genesis - base Premium variant is RWD only, Luxus spec is AWD only even if you don't want it (it compromises steering/cornering and increases fuel consumption). Same with interior trims - Premium has loads of piano black (which scratches even while looking at it) instead of aluminium which is not even an option. Why?
Yeah it's super annoying. It's different for each market though. Maybe that's how they do it for the European market. Here in Canada (and I assume the rest of North America), we don't get to chose anything. The car comes in 3 trims for the 2.0t engine, and 2 trims for the 3.3tt engine. However, the second trim up (the Advanced trim) already has aluminum in genuine leather. The Prestige trim which is the one I have, has the Napa Leather, power liftgate, passenger walk in device, heads up display, etc... It's a shame that Genesis doesn't make their cars more customizable, as I would have wanted the sport package with my 2.0t engine, but it's not offered here in Canada. The Genesis Korea website on the other hand is FULLY customizable from interior trim to the colours, leather options, interior, wheels, sunroofs, etc. I don't think that it's super fair that the cars are only customizable in Korea, especially since Genesis is trying to become a bigger mainstream fighter.
This is interesting because in Korea, we can select every single option providing some thousands of combinations. However, we always get German cars in one or two preset trims only. It could have to do with where these cars are built. For the Korean market, all the German cars come directly from Germany. So perhaps in markets where Genesis factory is not nearby, the cars would be simply shipped from Korea preset with certain options.
@@minkukim that’s interesting. For the Canadian market, European and North American brands are extremely customizable, whereas Asian brands are far less customizable. For example, Toyota and Honda vehicles are barely customizable. Similar to Hyundai/Kia they have set trims that customers can chose from, and that’s about it.
Hey Thomas , i agree with you for the red color , when you say that the interior color is too much They should make morde friendly and without leather , and uning more alcantara or fabric seats
I wonder why the US cars don’t get the full 3 d dash? We have one real dial gauge and one computer screen which makes the car look cheap! It needs this dash or the GV70 dash.
Thank you for the interesting review. Some questions come to mind : 1) Will you test the shooting bake version ? 2) Have you heard something about à BEV version of the G70, ideally as a shooting brake? Now that would give the Germans concern, because it competes directly with a 3 series or a C-Class that have yet to come out in BEV form, if they come as beloved Kombis at all. I'm not counting the G80, because we still don't know if and when it will come to Europe 3) Would you say that Genesis has reached Lexus standards ? Because their benchmark aren't the Germans [no offense], it's the Japanese...
Prefer these gauges to the semi analog version the US has for 2022. The V6 3.3t engine is good, but sounds like the new Genesis 3.5t is very good in the G80. Same for the new 2.5t versus the old 2.0t.
I didn't know we could buy these in Europe. I haven't seen any of this in the UK, may be it is not sold here. It looks more beautiful than C Class or ugly 3 Series. I'd buy it without a doubt if i were in the market for fossil car. Prefer EV for now... 😎 Excellent review as always love the Thomas blue...
@@youbencowell I think I’d prefer to take a look at a dealer without the added pressure of having a car delivered just so you can look at one. So far there is a ‘studio’ in London, and I’m. Not planning a full overnight trip just to look at a car. I have a Mercedes, BMW, Audi and Volvo showroom within 5 miles of me.

The midcycle refresh version had a better-looking front end. But G70 is a really nice car to drive with the turbo v6. My typical complaint stands - it's still too big for my wants/needs.
to be fair you and Doug should get some normally sized people to review the rear seats :) If you need to transport 3 passengers chances are they won't be all 2 meter tall Danish shieldmaids. One tall person, however, can go to the front.
Wann Bzw wo kann ich den G70 eigentlich kaufen? Auf der Homepage von Genesis finde ich keine Fläche um den zu konfigurieren und zum bestellen, würde mich freuen wenn jemand mehr weiß!
If only they had dealers. I absolutely love my G80 but will never but another Genesis again until they build dedicated dealers. I have had terrible service experiences at both Hyundai dealers in my area. They are even subpar compared to the Chevy, Honda and Nissan dealers in the area. They can't touch the Acura, Lexus and Mercedes experiences. You pay a premium for high end luxury but you have to deal with the thrift store for sales and service.
minor details I've notice when compared with the Germans, take for example door hinges, MB,BMW and Audi they are solid looking pieces (cast) where as in this car and other cheaper cars is a stamped steel hinge. Wonder if the suspension pieces are stamped steel or cast (solid) pieces that the Germans offer
These are some sexy as fake Bentleys, they look better so they should change their badge to supm more distinct rather than try to trick us into seeing a modernized Bentley, Genisis that's a nice brand right their 👌🏼
Mercedes lost me when they went with the big screen in the front cabin, drivers should be looking at the road, not a huge panel of toys. I prefer the g80 over the g70, but still a lot for the money.
The name of this brand is completely lost on me. How can they use Genesis when they are literally the last brand to come into the game and their products offer almost nothing that other brands haven't offered already for decades or even a century in some cases.
Get your facts right. Genesis (Hyundai Motor Group) comes with plenty of new tech not found on any other car manufacturer before, I Let you do the research, since you're so sure about what you are saying. And besides the new tech, the name Genesis fits perfectly with the start of a new era of affordable Luxury cars
Awesome designs and awesome review! I don't like the ugly sensor plate on the grill tho. Mercedes does this as well and it is just an ugly blob on an otherwise awesome design.
@@autogefuehl I think he meant a direct Comparison, you only mentioned the starting Price briefly. But I can see how it would be difficult to compare the different Offerings.
Thomas, there's no way I'd ever buy one of these over anything German (or Italian) for that matter. I am enjoying my S Class 550 V8 currently and so are my passengers! ha ha ha
So how is the sport line exhaust considered real, while the luxury line is fake? Both have the exact same pipes, with decorative ends. The only difference is that the tips of the sport were attached to the pipe, while the tips of the luxury were part of the bumper. Sure the later look more outrageous, but the principle is the same. I'll have to start a "defund the Autogefuhl Fake Exhaust Police" petition soon.
These will never catch on, poor performing engines compared to euro cars, no hybrid, no electric, depreciation will be monumental, and due to depreciation, the finance will be uncompetitive to euro cars. So who in their right mind will put their hard-earned cash on this over a BMW, Audi, Mercedes, or even a Lexus? You will really, really have to like the looks to do so..
It still looks like a mishmash of other cars/manufacturers. In the UK, it’s BIK is crazy expensive compared to say Mercedes and a Volvo. I guess they will be another Lexus.
there is no way for asian luxury car manufacturers to have a significant share in the market without having production facilities nearby. Obviously, european countries will protect european brands that are competitive in the global market, europe has always been like that because they can't handle if a non european brand outsells the local brands.
@@hodb3906 Kia produces in Slovakia and has R&D in Germany and UK. Nissan have produced in Sunderland since the mid 80s and Honda have produced in Swindon for nearly as long. Even infinity produced in the UK. The Qashqai and Sportage sell well.
Hyundai and KIA are competitors for Peugeot, VW, Renault and Toyota and Hyundai is killing them in the US for example and they are selling very good in Europe, catching up with VAG Group and Renault in Europe as well :) Genesis hits hard on BMW, Merc, Audi. Genesis are made to be better than the premium TRIO, at a better price
Looking similar or arguably better than Bentley is hardly a problem, pretty sure same designer or studio made it, its nothing new decade or so ago Mondeo shocked everyone looking like Aston Martin as it was designed by the same designer

Genesis are making some really beautiful looking vehicles. I look forward to owning one soon. I think the Thomas Blue suits this car so much.
👌

I really like what you did.
I'm a fan!
I own the 2019 3.3T Genesis G70.
I was given the 2.0 version as a loaner, while mine was in for service.
I was surprised by the power of the 4 cylinder version. I hated the start stop system, but was presently surprised by the acceleration!
This channel feels delightfully German and I love it.
welcome =)
16:25 great looking car on the right side. Also great review as always Thomas! I've seen one in traffic the other day and they really do look premium

I really like what the South Korean car companies are doing now. Thanks Thomas.
seen a few on the road, they look very very good.
True competition for germans. Good design, no touch sensitive buttons, nice interior. Only the sound enhancement little too much...
Hyundai hired a lot of Germans like Albert Biermann for their Genesis brand, always interesting to see what Thomas thinks of these cars.
Thank you for wonderful review !!amazing video as always .
🙏🙏
Genesis design is far better than nowadays BMW
Thanks for the thoughtful review. And I totally agree with you about the value of having hard buttons that can be used easily while driving.
Thanks 🙏
I really hope that Genesis comes to my country soon.
Great review. 👍
Thank you for reviewing an new genesis g70 with facelift but you didn't mention they prices of all engines in Germany

Beautiful timeless design
Not really a fan of the back profile of the car but overall, this is still a quite intriguing car.

@@oktaviu8668 yea maybe in hungary where you live.
@@oktaviu8668 I’d say Kia/Hyundai are competition to Skoda, MG and Fiat. At least in the UK.
@ Snake Docotor Man Genesis is much better and more luxurious than BMW, MB and Audi.
@@Robertkajman its a ugly looking polished turd
It looks cheap
And bare metal door frames, it’s bad enough seeing that in a Golf.
@@MaximilianvonPinneberg it is well made
@@dragospahontu It may well be well assembled, but from what materials, and the bare metal doors is not 'premium'.
That exterior...yeesh. 😅
The exterior looks like a knock-off Bentley to me :/
Looking similar or arguably better than Bentley is hardly a problem, pretty sure same designer or studio made it, its nothing new decade or so ago Mondeo shocked everyone looking like Aston Martin as it was designed by the same designer
I was going to say 2015 Jaguar XE.
Great exterior , ok interior... mediocre performance would get a bmw or Benz
I want it in kombi.
Genesis g70 look beautiful.
