I have a 2023 GV70 2.5T lease. It is a very comfortable and fun SUV to drive. Perfect for road trips. My only complain is the horrible city gas mileage. I average 12 to 14 miles per gallon in the city.
I was against hybrids but when it comes to power increase, I now prefer them over turbocharging. A hybrid Toyota and Honda will still be more reliable than any turbocharged vehicle. Not to mention the better fuel economy. Looks like the Koreans have the same business strategy that the English: they wanna make buyer's decision based on emotions by offering nice interior/exterior design and well equipped vehicles but mechanically they're below average.
@@Pjungwp I have a 2023 GV70 2.5T and I love it too. However, like you said the city gas mileage is beyond horrible. This SUV is made for freeway driving. I get 12 to 14 miles per gallon in the city. I am hoping the hybrid version of this SUV coming out in a couple of years will address this issue.
Genesis has crap engines just like the rest of the Hyundai & Kia engines being replaced, recalled, and blowing up going back to before the 2015 model year - their brand new ‘24 Santa Fe has these same engine issues & now failing transmissions.
Interesting though they offer a 5 year 130,000 km (79,000 miles) warranty with free service, then additional 12 month warranty after each yearly service. Up to 10 year total life. Sounds like they’re pretty confident with their engines.
Genesis-A shining star in the premium world!
With occasional major engine & transmission problems. 😮

This isn’t the 2025 - The new refresh is being released late November.
US 2025 is the 2024 in Korea. The Korean 2025 is the facelifted version. Not available in US yet
What was the 0 to 60? You never said
Got the 3.5T V6 in Makalu Gray Sport Plus (Canada's Top Trim) 0-60 in 4.6 sec.

Love my new GV70. But even 2.5T gas mileage sucks. I drive 98% in NYC and its spectacularly 12miles/gallon

Drive train warranty 10 years. Kia/Hyundai is well known for being one of the most improved company. This sounds like a hater commenting.
