I remember when it was first released, some reviewers were calling it a compliance car & nothing less. I think it is clear now it is instead in contention for segment leader in the mid-lux x-over space. Terrific car with a compelling price. Thx for the vid. I enjoyed watching.
As an owner... You're TOTALLY wrong about the interior! The GV60 (as well as their other EV's) is 2nd to only a few right now, those being your Mercedes, & Porsche's of the world. Unfortunately, and I do agree that the Navy Blue interior option on the Performance, is, as it was for me, a total fail! The Ice Glacier White (or light beige) interior, serves notice that Genesis is a LUXURY brand, and not to be overlooked going forward. I have been a Lexus fanboy for years, having owned 6 (and still currently owning one), I've owned 2 Mercs, a BMW, and a Tesla Model S. And I honestly have to say I enjoy my Genesis (as a WHOLE) over all of them. From looks, to tech, to build quality, comfort, ride quality, and fun factor, yeah... It's super quick (even without using BOOST). Long story short... Genesis is onto something special!
The car is actually quite luxurious on the interior. Another reviewer found that the materials in the car are actually high value and that the parts do actually equal the cost. The car is actually very quick, too quick for the stock tires to handle. It has a great ride although in really rough roads is can get a bit bumpy. Yesterday I got it from 40 to 90% in something like 16 minutes of charging. I would agree that the customer service is definitely lacking and is the worst part of the experience. The car itself, it is quality.
I have had my GV 60 in Canada for 22 months I have done 45K in km I cant fault the car , as for the interior in Canada they only come with the top of the line Nappa leather , I love mine the fit and finish is very good , I drove a Lexus before and the GV 60 is as good if not better .
As any working nurse can tell you, washing your hands 15 times a day can wear down your fingerprints to almost nothing. They had to do away with fingerprint med carts in favor of logins. Not to mention what happens to fingerprints after swimming, or if you've got paint on your fingers, or a carjacker just cut off your index finger to steal your car. Ugh.
Less expensive than the current Ioniq 5 N. I know it's an older video, but I would like to see if the GV60 Magma version as seen in Goodwood UK will get updated tech from the Ioniq 5 N, and whether it will really be 20k more expensive than the outgoing, at +70k USD or GBP? I have to say this is the most excited I have been about any electric car, even Tesla Plaid didn't get me this excited. Hyundai is leaps and bounds ahead of everyone else when it comes to driver focus and engagement, even a Porsche Taycan doesn't get me this excited.
Car reviewers often mistakenly mention 350kw charging speed because Hyundai/Kia talk about it’s 10 to 80% charging time when connected to a 350kw charger. Very misleading. It certainly charges very fast, but not 350kw. Max Charging speed is about 240kw.
Many of the Genesis features eventually spill into Hyundai and Kia vehicles but even if I would get the $7500 tax credits via reduced MSRP via a lease, it's still a cheap looking interior and not NACS compliant, which I would need in my State.
If you're considering a Genesis, you might want to think twice. Reports suggest their customer service leaves much to be desired, especially for a luxury car brand. Plus, if your car needs repairs, be prepared to wait at least three months for it to be fixed.
We took one for a test drive a couple of years ago. Internally it was about the same as a Leaf. Far too small for our family. Also I asked the price of the test car and it was over £70000! Crazy prices. The car was good to drive but no easier to park than our model X which is significantly larger. At current pricing the answer to "what new ev should you get" is definitely just get a Tesla, if they are totally out of budget and you can live with all the chimes and bing bongs then get an MG. Tesla superchargers are still a massive advantage here in the UK, where you are unlikely to find a charger faster than 60kw that does not have a queue, and superchargers are half the price of most of the competitors. My mate who bought a Taycan drove it for less than 1000 miles before selling it at a £20000 loss because he couldn't cope with the charging network. My mate with a Polestar uses it for local trips only, same with the family that bought the Kia Niro. Everyone I know who bought a Tesla has been able to use it as a sole family car quite happily ... Although some Teslas have some issues with build quality & reliability it seems to be getting better.
I would take this one over any Tesla any day. The range is fine, it charges faster than Tesla, looks better than Tesla and has an instrument panel like a normal car
I find all the buttons in the dual displays to be overly complex and distracting compared to the one screen in the model Y. I got so used to it now I’ll never go back not to mention that I saved about $30,000 between a long range model Y and a GV 60 performance
Our family had both the GV60 and MY. Both are great. The GV60 at the right DC station charges super fast. Build quality is better. The massaging seats are awesome. The MY has better software, more storage space, better charging infrastructure and is cheaper.
An expensive Hyundai. What is not to like? Until Kia/Hyundai have a longer track record, I'll pass. I've been burned by Kia with their poorly built Sedona minivan and even less well-built Sportage mini crossover.
@@JohnLee-db9zt It is. Toyota created Lexus in 1990 with the LS400 as an upmarket version of their vehicles, targeted specifically for the US market. I just really find Kia/Hyundai quality to be sub-par. I did like the Ioniq 5 but felt it was too flimsy in many places.

a friend has one. been in it a few times & it's awesome. looks incredible too. way underrated and talked about car.
Funny, when it first came out, all the comments were not kind to its looks. Now that people have seen them on the road, everyone’s loves the look

I wouldn't call anything over 37 grand a compelling price but then I just have a normal job.
@@davidmccarthy6061 I understand. This car comps to the Cadillac LYRIQ & the Polestar 3, of those, this costs the least. Sorry 4 confusion
That non rebate is a killer. Great video.
I own tesla S P100D 2017 and genesis gv60 performance 2022
Genesis gv60 performance is much better in everything than the tesla
I like the gv60 if priced a little high. Thanks for the insights.

Ultimately the biggest problem for ev's not being a Tesla, is the charging infrastructure. Electrify america is notoriously useless.
Can you review the top trim Nissan Ariya AWD?

Is it 350 kW charging? I thought it was somewhere in the 200s kW

Volvo EX 30, when? MG Cyberster, when? I always look forward to Alex's videos.

Short range and expensive, who would want one.

same price as a lightning and half the range
CON is E.V. stands for Expensive Vehicle.

So you’re comparing a luxury car with a econo car? Is a Lexus an expensive Toyota? 🙄

5 mins wasted. Could have been summarised in a few lines on paper.
If you lease it you csn get the $7500 credit in the usa from dealer!LOOPHOLE!
