I’m confused as to why reviewers are always wanting more exalt and engine noise, whereas for me quietness in a luxury performance sedan is the hallmark of excellent engineering.
Exactly, the engine needs to have strong pulling power but still be whisper quiet. If people want loud, then the luxury segment is the wrong place to look for a car.
The same was said about Lexus, Infiniti, and Acura when they all came out from under their parents decades ago. And the now Asians are wowing us with bells and whistles from Korea. It's really sad that America vehicles never get this same kind of love from Americans.
@@Joshua-yt8ul True indeed. Too bad, Buick, Cadillac and Lincoln don't just go hard and mass produce some of their concept vehicles. That chit is so fire.
I am still thoroughly convinced that the vehicles genesis makes, especially the g90, exchange punches with cars more than double their cost (mercedes in particular) and they are absolutely beautiful and ultra comfortable cars.
Well the new g90 went way up in price and costs $90k now. Still a slight deal but now a direct price competitor with the ls500 and 740i compared to how cheap the equus was a few years back
They really don't. You don't believe me? Go drive them on the autobahn at high speed and you'll quickly realize it. It's easy to be fooled by them standing still or driving slowly. Once you hit some curvy parts of the autobahn at 150 mph and realize BMW/Mercedes/Audi are perfectly composed, stable and quiet at that speed, while the Genesis feel sketchy when driving far slower than that, you'll realize where the extra money goes.
Definitely love the uniqueness that Genesis brings to market in terms of aesthetic, powertrains, and even tech. I’m suddenly in the market, ready to get rid of my Infiniti G (Sport) sedan and looking at that model on top on my list - dope POV as always!
I have the 2022 g80 prestige in white and my interior is beige. I have no rattle and it's been a great car. I'd put this up against the Mercedes e class any day of the week, I got rid of my 300 Mercedes for this car and I don't regret it at all and I loved my Mercedes
Hi Topher. First time commenter and long time follower of yours. I love the car's tech, power, and cabin ergonomics. Great review and I like how you enable the viewer to see the vehicle's specs and pricing in the description below the video. Keep 'em coming.
I agree. I was watching on TV and it didn't look high def. I thought something was wrong with the TV so I switched to my phone. But I see for this video he didn't record it in 4K like he usually does. It's either that, or Google is taking a long time to increase the quality since he just uploaded it some hours ago. Sometimes it takes a while for new uploads to show in it's highest setting on Google platforms.
@@shravan8848 Yeah I hate it. It's like that for almost all Google software. Google Photos, Google Drive, UA-cam, Google Hangouts, Google Chat, etc. Smh The only exceptions are Google Messages and Google Duo.
To the captain obvious rattle crew...It was clearly pointed out at the beginning of the video. It is unacceptable and a isolated incident that would be addressed by the dealer. The review is of the fundamentals of the car itself. All of the Merc/BMW fanboys with the "but it has a rattle" comments are actually a positive if that's all that can be nit-picked. Metal or plastic clips on dash trim not seated correctly happens on every brand on occasion...Get over it.
This car swings way, way above it's price range. If you like to get the most bang for your buck, you'd be absolutely foolish to not give the entire Genesis line a very hard look for any of your next car purchase whether it be a SUV or a sedan. They make some wildly geared vehicles for the price range. They are the first to shake up the luxury industry like this in a long, long while maybe ever. Lexus/Infiniti is the next closest comparison from the 90s.
Again, as I said to the other guy, it really doesn't. The quality of this car is deceiving and only surface deep. It lacks a lot of qualities and capabilities that actual luxury brands offer. You don't believe me? Go drive them on the autobahn at high speed and you'll quickly realize it. It's easy to be fooled by them standing still or driving slowly. Once you hit some curvy parts of the autobahn at 150 mph and realize BMW/Mercedes/Audi are perfectly composed, stable and quiet at that speed, while the Genesis feel sketchy when driving far slower than that, you'll realize where the extra money goes.
Dude the interior was rattling and road noise is trash. It may look good on the surface but underneath it’s still doesn’t compete against the Germans. It’s a sheep in wolfs clothing
@@derbigpr500 i agree. They focus on numbers because the American market is drawn to that but you cant put feel, quality, and fitment in a spec sheet. Numbers are always impressive until you realize its only a matter of time before everythings starts falling apart.
Great 👍🏾 review, Great vehicle. Makes me appreciate my 2023 Kia Sportage X-Pro. Different levels but same Family and DNA Better than the German vehicles as far as price, reliability, cost to own, maintenance and NOT over engineered.
These things are only as good as how well they’re transported and how well they get these readied at the dealership. One of the ways these manufacturers cuts costs is cutting on these things - especially in North American where is expensive and man hours are even more so
For a sport version just wish it had the quad exhaust like my AWD 2020 G80 sport. Then it would be perfection. This car, with its specs, is also $15k more than what i bought mine for brand new. Definitely a upgrade in materials though.
Prior gen was much better value for the money. It was only $3k more than a fully equipped G70/Stinger. This new G80 is overpriced, even if it is a great car. Fully loaded at $63K or $64K would've been reasonable. $71K is really pushing it...
That rattle was brutal, annoyed me throughout the entire video. Even if it’s just an issue with few vehicles it’s still rather disappointing nonetheless.
This kind of rattles happen a lot on those newly assembled vehicles...especially those with rigid chassis...They usually disappear after a few weeks once you start driving it...
Might be coming from his accessories but 2021 Sonata rental (my words don't weigh much since its only rental with 30k miles but was probably abused) I had for a month had a bad rattling noise coming from the infotainment screen
Chris was finally able to get a genesis product with the 3d gauges! I think they look much better than the smaller 7-inch lcd you get on lower trims. Cheers!
@@naveenthemachine They’re not though. Genesis don’t sell well. And Lexus is selling better than ever. This G80 has no value proposition and terrible rattles.
@@alh06 I love how you intentionally ignored the part of the video where he said the rattle is vehicle specific and that they can easily fix it once back at the dealer…
Honest question: Why are us spec cars on average so powerful? The max speedlimit in the US is 85mph in most places it is lower. You could reach and maintain that comfortably with less than 200hp in a car of that size and weight class. and reduce fuel consumption significantly. I recently drove an Audi A6 40TDI quattro with a 204hp four cylinder diesel and set the cruise control to 180 km/h (111mph) throughout most of the journey. Even through the moutains it had no trouble keeping that speed. After 1200km (745 miles) I averaged 41,3 mpg
A. no one driving a remotely powerful car goes the speed limit here. B. The U.S. is better at knowing its price value than other countries: we won’t pay big bucks for underpowered and not luxurious sedans. C. decent acceleration and power should be considered as what a luxury car should have.
All of those complaining about so-called "rattles" .. Just go test drive it yourself, and stop making conclusions via a video review .. You are no better than trolls here!
@@LorenzoDeprado It was pointed out in the beginning of the video! A rattle is not acceptable at any price by any automaker, yet they all have a few that develop a rattle at some point. It is how the issue is addressed by the dealer that matters more than a single rattle in a otherwise very nice place to be.
I can confirm that the center console and sunroof rattle is not specific to your copy or that model. It is consistent across all models and more common than what is said by reviews or Hyundai / Genesis
I currently own a 2021 G70 Sport Prestige and let me tell you that with a few mods, the car became a totally different animal...my wife has the 2022 GV70 and can't say enough amazing things about that car. But I've been super tempted to trade in my G70 for the G80 Sport Prestige. What are your thoughts on that? Worth it?
@Ryan Barstad I’ve only sat in the G80 and while it looks more luxurious and has more second row room space I’d stick with G70. Other reviews have also stated that G70 is a much more dynamic driving experience compared to G80. I myself own 2023 G70 3.3 RWD sport prestige and absolutely love it. I was surprised at how similar G70 drove to Cadillac CT5V (my first choice but dealership didn’t want to negotiate)!
One area where Germans are tops are drivetrain sophistication. An 8 cylinder BMW gets better highway mpg than a 4 cylinder Genesis. The G90 now has an available mild hybrid power train but even that gets mediocre MPG. Yes, you’ll pay more to maintain a German engine.
Hi, thank you for your reviews, always informative and interesting as well as entertaining. Despite this is a review of G80, you said in this video, that you'll pick a G70 over M340i and I totally agree. I've owned a G70 for 2 years and it was great (except there was a dealership hiccup when adaptive suspension sensor said goodbye and they had none in stock and it took them 3 months to order a new one under warranty). Over the years you've also tested and Acura TLX. Could you please share your opinion on that one? Which one would you pick now? G70 or TLX? Or maybe something else? Im looking for "luxury" (hate this word), but sporty car and can't decide :D Would be grateful for your opinion. Thank you!
First off amazing reviews!! I'm a chauffeur here in MinneSnowta and I'm looking at the Genesis. I wanna please my clients but I also wanna enjoy driving it along with cabin space for them n possible luggage. What's your take on this young man winter?
@@arrqw4633 it's got nothing to do with the cost of the car lol it's literally a defect which doesn't discriminate depending on the pricetag, just take it back to get it sorted
Thats what happens when you spend 70k in an economy brand. I wouldnt go to the dollar store and brag about spending 70k there. Still dollar store items. They should still to the Sonata and their suv line.
yea, this is becoming like the early years of lexus. Genesis is holding nothing to back to become that new value luxury king just like lexus did in the 90s
i have owned so many German Cars. when I drove the Genesis and it was brand new. i realized that most companies nowadays convince you with a wild interior and options. but the driving experience is far from perfect or very good. These Korean manufactures have great interior like this one looks better than 2020 BMW 5 series or 7 series. but for this kind of money I would take 2 year old BMW or Mercedes for same price better built quality and Faaaar superior driving experience. even the MPG for a V6 is not that good.
To me, the G80 will always be the REAL Genesis, due to its origins as the Hyundai Genesis before birthing the entire Genesis brand. Shame on that rattle - my 2009 Genesis does rattle similarly but only because she had her roof liner dismantled last year and reassembled thanks to a sunroof malfunction and replacement. For the record my car has over 300,000 miles. I’d be very happy to get a new G80 but I won’t give mine up! (A midgrade 4-cylinder model will be adequate for me.)
@@caleblovell5240 Only regular maintenance. I did some rideshare duty with my car several years ago so there was more wear and tear than I would've liked - these days, now that I drive a lot less, my oil change interval is 3 months regardless of mileage (usually 3000-3500 miles) with synthetic.
I was okay with everything until you said you'd take it over the BMW M340i!! These are not in the same car class. I feel you should compare it with the M550i, even though I feel like comparing a Korean car with a BMW should be illegal...
@@protokille9111 i mean if u consider price Genesis is much sweeter deal, that's the whole point of those luxury hyundais, they offer much better value. Also reliability is much better with hyundai id never own modern bmw, just lease, while with genesis id easily take my chance
@@Angry-Lynx yeah ngl for the price it’s a snag, but fr if you could afford similar price beamer with similar price genisis u wouldint take the beamer?
@@alh06 Tell that to CR reports genesis is above them in both JD power and CR reports. My father has owned 3 from the 90s and my mother all said they were shit. I can’t believe a guy actually said a german car is reliable. Remember the bi turbo v8 they had? Yeah you want to call that reliable? The only reliable engine they have is the B58 which is why Toyota used it and even made changes to make it more reliable. When you buy a bmw its just for performance and the name you aren’t buying for reliability… And no value? You know the Hyundai equus still goes for above $30K CAD even after 10 years out of production. You bmw fanboys are delusional just do research before you comment damn
This 3.5T sounds amazing with a valved exhaust someone did it on the gv70 and i think hyundai/genesis should offer a valved exhaust for this one and not just the G70
So the press car has a rattle and they want how much? 70K??? The test of whether this is a great,, well made car and a complete bargain will be what it looks like in 5 years. The Korean's have a habit of false-bling that looks great for a while then quickly reveals itself as a cheap fake. Sadly, who can wait that long - which is why a little rattle is just such an own-goal. It screams cheap.
love the look and the performance but my concern is the longterm reliability. I don't gain much confidence from long warranties alone, I prefer to rely on an automaker's track record of build quality.

@@caleblovell5240 Only regular maintenance. I did some rideshare duty with my car several years ago so there was more wear and tear than I would've liked - these days, now that I drive a lot less, my oil change interval is 3 months regardless of mileage (usually 3000-3500 miles) with synthetic.
Lets say it like this. As far as I am concerned a G31 530i 6 cylinder petrol BMW averages in consumption levels near to this.
They should do a 2 door G80 to replace the Genesis Coupe
A lot of genesis have the notorious center console rattle . Just search on the forums
they don't put the wet dual clutch in these?
to 100% the best luxury Korean midsize sedan of the world, and for a fair price.
It’s also the only one of those, so…
@@alh06 yep 😁
@@alengreen589 Also not for a fair price, since it now lacks any value proposition. So your point is just wrong.
@@alh06 Sorry.
@@alh06 you don’t have to be a douche about it
Topher, what's your dailym
22 BRZ 👍
korea!! 🇰🇷
omg genesis are awesome, i wanted G90 but 4l engine is way too much
I have been annoyed by the rattle this week
The issue I have is when you go up in models, they're supposed to be faster than the one below. At least they didn't carry over the G70 dash
Wish it had better mpg
It gets better mileage than sticker I got 31.5 mpg last trip 400miles+ at 70-75 mph average
wow...these cars are not the financial deal they used to be
I was okay with everything until you said you'd take it over the BMW M340i!! These are not in the same car class. I feel you should compare it with the M550i, even though I feel like comparing a Korean car with a BMW should be illegal...
To be fair, he said he'd take the G70 over M340i.
how is this rattling noise even acceptable in any car?
Rattles are a deal breaker for me
Its his tester. They don’t all do this..
Best sport sedan with rear steering wheel.gemans cant do such things!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
this are fantastic car ; would take it over beemer every day ;
nah bmw > genesis, bmw got sport and luxury
@@protokille9111 i mean if u consider price Genesis is much sweeter deal, that's the whole point of those luxury hyundais, they offer much better value.
Also reliability is much better with hyundai id never own modern bmw, just lease, while with genesis id easily take my chance
@@Angry-Lynx yeah ngl for the price it’s a snag, but fr if you could afford similar price beamer with similar price genisis u wouldint take the beamer?
@@Angry-Lynx Genesis engines have worse reliability than modern BMW engines, and offer no value proposition anymore.
@@alh06 Tell that to CR reports genesis is above them in both JD power and CR reports. My father has owned 3 from the 90s and my mother all said they were shit. I can’t believe a guy actually said a german car is reliable. Remember the bi turbo v8 they had? Yeah you want to call that reliable? The only reliable engine they have is the B58 which is why Toyota used it and even made changes to make it more reliable. When you buy a bmw its just for performance and the name you aren’t buying for reliability… And no value? You know the Hyundai equus still goes for above $30K CAD even after 10 years out of production. You bmw fanboys are delusional just do research before you comment damn
Still waiting for the g803.3t to go below 20k
You’re gonna be waiting 10 years they hold their value now if you look at market place
LOL 20K!?
Bro a new car is out of your budget!!
This 3.5T sounds amazing with a valved exhaust someone did it on the gv70 and i think hyundai/genesis should offer a valved exhaust for this one and not just the G70
korean cars have come long way. this car is better than fuckin outdated lexus
the hyundai engines always sound so bad with all that ticking
I wish this car comes with manual.
So the press car has a rattle and they want how much? 70K??? The test of whether this is a great,, well made car and a complete bargain will be what it looks like in 5 years. The Korean's have a habit of false-bling that looks great for a while then quickly reveals itself as a cheap fake. Sadly, who can wait that long - which is why a little rattle is just such an own-goal. It screams cheap.
In this trim, its only maybe 1-2k difference versus a German car.
But still has more features…
I can't do rattles
Give it a few years once depreciation hits and what a value this car will be.
U can say that about literally any car doofus lol
@@trstnhn Yeah Toyota Corolla and Rav 4 hybrids are basically worth the same today as they were when they were new 3 years ago. Right?
@@IKhanNot look up the 2020 G90 it still holds 80% of its valve after 3 years so that’s invalid my guy 😂
These are great but man, they've lost their value proposition.
Hi 👋
I like this car but I wouldn't buy one just because I don't want to drive around with a computer screen sticking out of the dash.
Interior looks like a Chrysler
That rattle is a deal breaker. It is very annoying even in the video. I wouldn't be able to have that.
I'm waiting for my GV70 3.5TT, that rattling has me concerned. I haven't seen much feedback about that rattling in that SUV
because there is no rattling on the gv70 lol
love the look and the performance but my concern is the longterm reliability. I don't gain much confidence from long warranties alone, I prefer to rely on an automaker's track record of build quality.
Rattling ? At that price point? You'd have to be a fool to spend that type of money on a product that clearly isn't the luxury it's trying to portray.
That rattling is annoying man
I think because it's a press car and press cars are driven hard by multiple people
@@Mm.2112 Shouldn't be rattling that fast. Fit and finish. It's a cheap vehicle. I'd rather spend the money on BMW or Mercedes at that price point.
@@Mm.2112 Should never rattle, 70k car.
I agree with you
shits rattling more than my old sti
He said specific their was something wrong with his tester relax
The best of its kind! Germans ones stand lower.
If I’m paying 70k for a car I need 500 or more horsey
so for sedans your only option is a Charger 😂
