I would take a chance on the Genesis since it apoeals more to my style.

[@lagardena8551]

Genesis should be compared with mercedes or bmw not Lexus

[@warrenlung4290]

Genesis all the way!!!

[@juniechung6691]

GV80 saved Tiger W.

[@davidcmatson]

Ben, you are (in my opinion) tireless and one of the hardest working vehicle reviewers on KZbin!!! I look forward to your videos everyday.

[@femiogunsola5436]

GV80 for sure

[@Saab900T]

Lexus is an entire generation behind Genesis in terms of design and build quality.

[@PhilNo-kh8bb]

That Genesis is gorgeous but it will eventually go boom.

[@bradleyscarreviews]

Nope. Genesis doesn’t have any of those issues or recalls.

[@naveenthemachine]

Your comment is what has already gone boom Phil

[@bayodaman]

"boom" tf are you a boomer? when tf has car just started randomly going boom?

[@bradleyscarreviews]

The Genesis is in a different league.

[@user-vv4lo2hk6o]

Very impressive video! Reside in Japan, I’ve been owned RX 450H & replacing to 350H in a month. I have no chance to see any Korean car here due to distribution, some impressive point is that this G80 still maintains V6 engine whilst RX already switched to inline4 plus much electrified system, I’m getting slightly curious how my new 350H give me a better driving experience.

[@matthirn7858]

If we are just comparing the vehicles as they come it seems odd that the Lexus chosen is a hybrid instead of a gas- only model. That gives the Lexus an advantage in power train for significantly better fuel economy. From an interior quality standpoint, they are not in the same class. Genesis is a significant step above the Lexus. The biggest win for Lexus is that Toyota’s (Lexus) manufacturing has a long history of reliability with a strong dealership repair network. Genesis, on the other hand, has struggled to get the kinks out of their supply line and build a strong, positive customer relationship. Genesis makes a more luxurious vehicle, so in that regard they are not in the same class. Lexus is a far more sensible choice to the point that their reliability is what makes this comparison reasonable. That’s my take anyway.

[@CarGeek360]

I would personally pick a new MDX, X5, or CX70/CX90 both both but they’re all fantastic products for sure

[@kelvins9823]

I would prefer Lexus, like you mentioned better fuel efficiency. And the reliability factors which saves you money on repairs.

[@CarGeek360]

The Lexus flexus from Long Beach to Texas!

[@topagent7709]

I totally agree with lagardena8551& bradley's comments. GV80 is indeed another level with German luxuries, not with Japanese made

[@KhrissyDaDon]

Opinion don’t beat facts, the Rx sells more and its reliability is unmatched! And don’t mention anything about the turbos Lexus is putting in their cars, because the first gen Nx had turbo engines and it proven to be reliable!

[@naveenthemachine]

The RX outsells a rolls Royce and a Bentley bentayga and a Porsche Cayenne so it must be better than them. But it’s not. Reliability is not why anyone buys a luxury car.

I don't think anyone is worried about "realibiltity" when buying something that has 5yr full coverage warranty. you also forgot one "fact" Lexus are ugly as hell and look like mom vans. Lexus finally smartened up and changed that God awful last design. idk how it was the best selling, thing was ugly as hell. my 2021 x5 competition makes it look like straight dog $hit. Congrats you got an upgraded rav 4 lol.

Have a 2018 RX 350L and zero issues with it so far . Would have to go Lexus because of reliability

[@MikeKayK]

If you're leasing for 3 years that's a non-issue.

[@Passportbros8]

I have a 2023 GV80 3.5t. it's the most reliable car I've ever owned. And it has the best in class warranty. I get more attention with the GV80 than any Lexus gx or rx owner can dream of. The GV80 gives me Soo much public looks that a woman literally stopped me in a roundabout traffic just to tell me she'd never seen a car as beautiful as the GV80 in person before. I doubt a Lexus will get you any compliments or public looks.

[@xxavyerm9649]

I would rather take the Lexus, a better product from a trusted and reliable brand that's been around since 1989 over Genesis that started in 2015. Had Hyundai's before, did not last long, plus they are the most preferred vehicles to be stolen in the US.

[@Doc1855]

Lexus Always! No compromise for the best

LEXUS is the King 👑

[@kennethilagan7239]

Ben ? What are you thinking comparing a Lexus to that ?

[@courtneypuzzo2502]

I'd say the Lexus is better cause A its the luxury branch of Toyota and they have a significantly longer track record of selling cars in the US than Hyundai do and originally the Genesis was meant to slot above the Azera as Hyundai's top of the line car before it was spun off into its luxury division unlike Lexus which was always Toyota's Luxury division and at first were mainly aimed at the American Market for comparison sake take a Lexus ES 250 had a starting Sticker price of 22,000 in 1990 while a Cadillac Seville Touring Sedan started at 37,000 in the same model year which was even higher than a base level Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe at that time which stickered for $30,000 though depending if you got Coupe/convertible with what options etc. the price could easily go past 80,000

The Genesis is beautiful. The Lexus isn't "sporty." It's just ugly. Lexus does, however, have the edge on reliability.

[@Jackson-son]

Definitely gv80

[@ELP1125]

Genesis got Lexus looking ancient

[@aasamspb967]

genesis will become ancient in garage pretty fast

[@bayodaman]

I didn't know Lexus had such a big following for the suv lol. Why all the fanboys in the comment section. To me Lexus Rx has always been ugly until the new body style. That old one is just atrocious

[@philhenderson3516]

The GV80 is far from being pretty, but next to this Lexus it looks like a pageant queen. That's how ugly the Lexus is.

[@maga6319]

Obviously Genesis is better overall. Lexus transmission failed earlier than Genesis.

[@jayczyzyk9707]

Massive recall just now gv80 engine fire

Fake news. Gv80 never had fire recalls. Try again

how??? lexus looks like a toyota with a different badge

[@naveenthemachine]

Easy. Ones a real luxury car with proper luxury car underpinnings, a luxurious interior, next level design, materials tech luxury etc. that's the genesis The other one though... not even the slightest bit. Because it's just a gussied up Toyota Camry on stilts wearing ugly lipstick and it boasts pathetic looks, pathetic interior, pathetic tech, pathetic drivetrains, pathetic performance, pathetic handling, pathetic luxury, list goes on. That's the Lexus So ask yourself do you want a luxury car or a gussied up Camry? You decide

[@ajeykiruba7886]

stfu what about Genesis aren't they kia/hyundai what happened to the kia boys they were so easy to steal and their build quality is ass and there's multiple recalls about fire so have fun driving ur gv80 around that shit won't even last 5 years bro

[@i5x0e]

​@@ajeykiruba7886 you mad its the truth

[@MrJgayles]

I wish the Lexus was more luxurious but the sad truth it is not. It’s just a better Toyota which there is nothing wrong with that. But it doesn’t set itself apart from Lexus other than looks (exterior) I’m hoping that Lexus abandons their whole 100% electric plan by 2030 and instead go with the hybrid by 2030 because those new concepts especially the wagon IS is mmmmuuuaaaahhh perfect.

[@naveenthemachine]

@@MrJgayles you’ll be disappointed as those concepts won’t be ever coming to production 😂

[@MrJgayles]

@@naveenthemachine well rumor has it they are coming to production. One by 2025 and people believe it’s the Lexus iS. also the rumor is since Toyota is rethinking its electric car production that Lexus will follow suit. The market for EV’s has slowed dramatically. Plus since the Chicago Tesla charging station thingy…. These batteries will not last the frigid cold so alamost 40% of the states just found that out and I’m sure it’s going to sway people from purchasing a fully electric car. That and I don’t think the electric grid can handle all the cars to be electric. Anyways off topic I go…. Lexus will release one of those cars along side the new super car they are building.
