We're DELIGHTed that you appreciate our Mood Curator feature! As we step into 2025, it marks a significant milestone in refinement.

[@soulstance]

It is absolutely gorgeous

[@cavitycreep]

But they hid the exhaust smmfh

[@juneaaahn6826]

The interior goes perfectly well with the lady. Georgeous!

[@yellowhammer3]

I think it is a great SUV. Too bad you have to go to the Hyundai dealer to get it serviced. I think that is a big turn-off for their target market.

[@naveenthemachine]

That’s a minor problem Because the car matters more than the brand Besides you can have Genesis pick up your car and drop off a loaner.

[@MrGeezil]

There are a lot of standalone Genesis delearships plus you don’t even have to go to delearship. They can drop off a loaner and pick up ya car for service. Keep living in the pass.

[@Laidbck93]

Your wrong

[@Chrismusique1]

Very very wrong. Genesis have their own stand alone concessions

[@Pabla98]

I say in a GV70 and it wasn’t even the top model yet the interior felt so solid. genesis material usage is top notch, I would buy the GV80 in a heartbeat if it came in a higher performing flavour.

[@NinjaDecimator]

Regarding the Lane Keeping Assist and Lane Follow Assist you mentioned, it is actually a button on the steering wheel. The button with lanes and a steering wheel icon next to the smart cruise distance button is how to use it. Short press for Lane Follow Assist (centering) on or off, long press for Lane Keep Assist on and off.

[@JamaicanMeCrazy]

Can't wait to see the next generation of their cars

[@AJs-guitar-bass]

What a well-done, and simply downright pleasant review. So many car reviews are really annoying, and this one is done so professionally and pleasantly, I actually watched the entire vid. Nice!

[@AyeeItsLaRock]

IT LOOKS SO GOOOOOOD

[@GaryKetchum808]

It’s barely updated yet still looks like it came out yesterday. This car is gonna age well.

[@ryanfrisby7389]

Fantastic video Lyn!😸

[@JamesCovalentBond]

I am not sure about its reliability, but darn, that's a stunning looking car

[@ezrapardede1921]

definitely no lexus level of reliability, but current Genesis is above average reliability wise for an entry luxury brand

[@MrGeezil]

I’m sure this car can last 10 years without any major issues. I have a 20 g90 with 76k miles. No issues and nowadays who even keep cars for over 15 years ?

[@kfx3907]

Still has much better reliability and maintenance than the Germans for sure.

[@popsandbangs8858]

@@ezrapardede1921its reliable just as lexus , probably not above average its above good

[@clistpost]

I actually went from Lexus to Genesis this month. It’s not a Lexus…but main it’s not a slouch either. I can’t complain.

[@alexandermaliy3515]

Interior looked better before restyling

[@ezrapardede1921]

atleast it's still more special and build better than most supposedly luxury brand

[@Doodelz02]

"Smells better than your kid's feet" high praise indeed! Response to your next request to test drive a Genesis? "Two words & they're not 'kid's feet'". 😂 (love the humor)

[@ArcadyRoyzen]

Is the glare from HUD still present under certain light angle?

[@nawafa4307]

There is a direct way to shut off the lane keep assist with a long press to the button on the dashboard.

[@1swm1]

The comment on the seats. I don't have this car, but I'd imagine they will "break in" over time. My Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit had hard seats and it took about 3 months for them to break in, and now they are great!

[@Stinger430]

"The Smell Is On." is my new favourite phrase. Was that Emme Hall in the passenger seat?

[@karkor65]

Does it come with wireless android auto ?

[@GaryKetchum808]

Also shout out to Lyn coming in with the drip 💧 🙏

[@carynmcentee6725]

5 year resale value isn't as good as some of the competition. There has been issues with the GV70 (which I have) and the GV80

[@bigdi77]

There’s problems with Toyota tundra driveshaft and ford engine and every other car manufacturer

[@Bash-Toks]

Hard disagree on the resale value vs competition, the German brands resale value take a nosedive once they’re closer to the end of warranty, I mean averaging around a 40-65% drop

[@dagma3437]

Gas mileage, Type of gas and when will it be available?

[@JackSmith-qi7dr]

Poor, premium and soon.

[@amigatommy7]

Massage seat?

[@user-qj3yo5pm2k]

Awesome SUV

[@SSS-mp8th]

Maybe next time go with the orange jumpsuit?

[@amigatommy7]

Almost G90 turf. colors are great.

[@Doodelz02]

Lol. Why is you testing trunk head-room? 😊

[@arlifritz1430]

There is a one button shut off. On the steering wheel. 😊

[@ikephipps2696]

The song they used for this vid is soo soothing

[@masoodrazaq]

Good review. To my ears, the music was annoying and slightly haunting

[@richguy8317]

Better than gle😅😅😅

[@magnoliap5824]

How do they get away with no spare tire 🛞?

[@billyc2730]

New on earth?

[@Doodelz02]

I hear you. Typical these days. Guess: Less weight = higher mileage and every 10th counts.

[@amigatommy7]

Track pad is silly.

[@Quinton0520]

if only it was a hybrid or plug in!

[@mikejames8133]

Visible rear wiper is a fail.

[@squalie9]

Does anyone else think these don't age well looks wise?

[@anthonyesiemokhai1603]

NOBODY else thinks so.The GV80 is one of the best looking mid-size SUVs, simple.

[@squalie9]

@@anthonyesiemokhai1603 I think it looks great too. But I already looks outdated to me.

[@YTYTYTY7]

They said they will not change design drastically like Hyundai. It will be more timeless luxury design.

[@williamguillIII]

Lyn......coveralls? No, No, No, No!!

[@noahboy6349]

Your KZbin reviews are always covered by Micah Muzio and Lyn Woodward. How about more diversity and include more of Mike Danger? He’s just as good as those two.

[@JackSmith-qi7dr]

Stop with the diversity angle. This is getting very boring.

[@saintsubie6661]

Don’t like it. Looks dated. Chrysler Crossfire vibes.

[@brucejones7177]

Not paying that kind of money for a glorified Hyundai

[@naveenthemachine]

But this doesn’t use Hyundai fwd platforms If anything you should be wowed by the fact that Hyundai could do something like this. Not every Japanese brand even the biggest one is fortunate enough to have the kind of R&D and engineering Hyundai has

[@jacobsmith5543]

Braindead reasoning

[@Trollmastaphlex8]

just shows you have no money at all lmao watching videos on cars for sub-median annual income losers with $10K in credit card debt. What are you 50 and have never flown first class yet? Keep posting comments haha more users mean more RSUs for me

[@t-roy2418]

I’m done with anything Hyundai has to do with. We had a bad experience. And the customer service is terrible. Not taking responsibility for there product.. it’s sad because we like the way they look and drive until close to 100,000 miles.

[@pharaokjs]

Hyundai dealer service in the United States is generally poor. U.S. dealers need training and support to improve their professionalism and customer service to Korean levels. American-made Hyundai and Kia cars have more problems than Korean-made cars. Quality needs to be brought up to Korean levels.
