2023 Genesis GV80 // What's NEW for 2023?? (Elite Luxury without the Price)

[@donyale2688]

I've driven Acura's ,Lexus ,Mercedes ,BMW and Range Rover Super Charge and none of those vehicles remotely comes close to the Genesis GV80 Prestige 3.5t I just recently purchased... I Love it and everyone who pulls up on me always ask me was It that I'm driving..This SUV rides super quiet with no noise and the suspension is remarkable and the speed packs a punch ...It's POWERFUL !!!!!!!! So yes this vehicle is the best SUV I've ever purchased . .

Hello, can I message you on your mail. I'm considering getting one soon.

[@faamecanic1970]

Premium fuel is “suggested” per the Genesis dealer I bought mine from (and several other dealer websites I have found). Love my GV80 3.5t! In sport mode it is surprisingly peppy! But still smooth…. Also note Genesis now has a Prestige 20 trim level. Mainly due to them having issues getting the 22” rims. I’m fine with the 20’s as they make for a slightly smoother ride with a touch less road noise.

[@tyalexander9005]

This is great!! Love u guys!

[@fleurde1is]

Thanks for doing videos like these. I wish the dealership would've shared a lot of the other differences like matte exterior color options, additional interior trims, slight difference in size and feel of wheel and steering column, the model with Captain's chairs with a huge storage area and charging ports between both along with an entertainment center... and I forget what else. I watched this video hoping you found out more. Appreciate you guys and thanks again!

[@CarConfections]

Glad to help!

[@chibuzz4940]

The only things genesis need to improve are put the massage on the two front seats, provide a full digital cockpit for the base model, and lastly change the steering wheel then I will buy it

[@jinmd9094]

Always enjoy your reviews. I am surprised in a video focusing on what is new for 2023 you didn't point out the infotainment controller is now the raised version that is used on the GV70. To me that is a big improvement over the concave controller in prior years GV80s.

[@tomchamberlin2649]

I noticed that too. Plus, the 12.3" 3D Digital Instrument Cluster/ Head Up Display is now with the 2.5T Prestige package. I hope that that the 2023 G80 will get those changes too.

I own 2021 GV80 Prestige-great vehicle but is Apple CarPlay now wireless? Is there a permanent turn off switch now for the auto engine stop? Can you get Captains Chairs in second row? Are they offering more wood choices for interior. These are things I thought should be fixed.

Kudos to Genesis. Each model (sedan or SUV) has design that will look fresh 10 years from now. The only concern is hopefully Toyota-like reliability. But at 5 yrs/60K miles warranty, it helps put my mind at ease (as I buy cars - do not lease).

[@3bluto]

Its all very well reviewing these cars, which on the face of it look great. However, being drawn to buying one myself, or at least beginning the process, I took the time to do some further homework. These cars are not getting anywhere near "good" reviews by owners. Many of the issues seem to revolve around dealerships being unable to get parts to do the repairs, or being untrained to be able to do acceptable repairs, let alone the fact that a new care needs repairing so soon! Also "Genesis USA" gets many negative reviews, where after being contacted they do a very poor job of getting issues resolved, leaving many new owners frustrated, and in many cases without a replacement car. So the moral of the story is, do not base you decisions to buy on these kind of pro-car reviews, which point you to the positives ONLY! Do you homework and maybe save yourself a $70K heartache!

[@LlyleHunter]

Genesis didn’t know what you really wanted so they just put everything they could think of inside.

[@bluegrassbabe1]

As someone from your area, that nearly $4000 "Market Adjustment" that specific dealership is putting on them doesn't fly with me and you didn't mention it in the pricing. I will never buy from that dealer in the future!

[@jinmd9094]

AMEN! Same with me. I take note of dealers adding markups over MSRP and will never buy from them, even in the future if they can no longer command a dealer mark up.

2022 GV80 made the top 10 SUVs to AVOID, due to owner complaints of mechanical failures coupled with lengthy shop time as PARTS were not readily available - so can we expect more of the same?
