Centre console has a top layer that you remove to reveal the much deeper storage.

[@ACCELER8TV]

Ah... we didn't look close enough. The previous GV80 we had didn't have that top layer (at least the one we reviewed didn't) so it felt proper sized. Thanks for pointing that out!

[@dagma3437]

I have seen several car reviewers missing the deeper storage. There is a button to remove the top tray which is black and is obscured by the black lining of the top tray.

[@boozer74]

YOU BETTER TRADEMARK "YOU GOT IT DOES" BEST LINE EVER!!!!

[@clancep]

I love the GV80. Interesting that a way more expensive Mercedes GLE doesn’t have Digital Key, carpeted from wheel wells, a Digital Rearview mirror, driver AND passenger exterior auto-dimming mirrors, quilted Nappa Leather seats, nor a High End audio system like all of these you can get on the GV80.

[@michellemooresings]

I LOVE love mine. Nicest car I've had. 22" wheels are pretty fun, too.

[@blackdeath1493]

love the video!! The car is absolutely beauty interior and exterior

[@ACCELER8TV]

Would you buy the Genesis GV80 over a Lexus RX, BMW X5, Mercedes GLE or even say a Lincoln Nautilus?

[@greg1920061]

I would i love your channel. I have a matte burgundy gv70 sport prestige.

[@kiwan5425]

I would. It's either X5 or GV80 for me. If I keep it up to 4-5yrs, it's gonna be X5. Longer than that GV80. GV80 is more affordable, lower cost to maintain, and better design.

[@michellemooresings]

I had an old Lexis and I was considering the new Lexus..It wasn't even in the running by the end. Sadly.

[@Coupe-sy9nk]

​@michellemooresings to each it own, but you'll see in resale value and maintenance cost over several years and see why Lexus is the best selling Asian luxury brand. The GENESIS looks amazing, though I can't lie, but mechanically my money is on Lexus.

[@michellemooresings]

@@Coupe-sy9nk I had a Lexus LS 430. Loved that car. I wasn't even interested in them at first. I just didn't like the design on the latest Lexus SUV 's. But the engines will last forever.

[@dmack346]

Nice review. Looking forward to your coupe review. Thanks for sharing

[@philpernice4722]

Fun fact genesis will bring a loaner to ur office or home when ur car needs a service Bmw and mercedes doesnt even do that And for all the haters who say its a Hyundai its totally different just like lexus is to toyota

[@twfinc6855]

These are nice, I compared to X5 and the Genesis was more "floaty" on the road so that made me feel not very confident in the handling. The X5 was better is some ways. Ultimately I bought a RX500h, which I am very happy with the smaller size around town, and overall quickness and nimble aspect due to size. Its quiet, comfortable, and nice to drive on long trips. I think you get a lot for you money in the Genesis lineup, but had to pass this time around.

[@FCM415]

There are many versions of the X5. Mine adjusts ride height and hugs the road. No float.

[@twfinc6855]

@@FCM415 The genesis floats, not the X5.

[@elyj.8612]

@@twfinc6855 The adaptive suspension on the GV80 (some trims) also allows you to have a firmer ride on sport mode, but it use the dampers, so no air suspension, which may not be as good as the BMWs or Mercedes, but also won't cost thousands to fix it, and is way less complex, so I'm good with Genesis limited adjustments and more reliable approach.

[@poglant]

the Lexus is cool but it’s not quicker than a x5

[@joecool9739]

Just say you couldnt afford them

[@mohammadal-abbasi7247]

👌🏼 great review guys

[@ACCELER8TV]

Thanks!!!

[@dennwilliams3342]

thank you for the new steering wheel. now this is worth buying

[@MarcusTurner-b5p]

Nice video keep up the good work Mike

[@BRUINSS]

I wish they would have hid the rear wiper up where the third brake light is.. besides that it's beautiful

[@valeriiilnitskii2670]

Center Console has two levels. “Two” cellphones” height is level 1. Underneath there’s another level, much deeper. (Genesis GV80 2025 owner)*

[@volcalstone]

😅 I just checked and I was already subbed. 😊 The GV80 is nice but man are they expensive which is fine but I need 3 rows for that price. 😊 **update this one was a 3rd row! Btw the screen is now OLED so what's why it looks so nice. I thought wireless Carplay and Android Auto was gonna come with an update later on?

[@BashToks]

OTA for all refreshed models and even for pre-refreshed models.

[@twfinc6855]

I like that there are buttons, the X5 was all in the screen and I didnt like that at all

[@ACCELER8TV]

Yeah for sure!!

[@MaxxKoggen]

Interestingly weird how I was just watching the GLC video and it creeks but the Hyundai doesn't.

[@farissaleh1985]

How can I lock the car when engine is running?

[@ahmzazemani9681]

BRO we are waiting for the panamera review ang GT53

[@ivansebastiao6057]

Amei tudo no carro

[@danieltovar6151]

Wait a minute. Why does it have a third row of passengers? The GV 80 doesn't have a third row. Well, the one they sell in the USA.

[@danidiamond]

We have both options in USA. I have without

[@ACCELER8TV]

Yup it's available in the USA, it's optional.

[@CP-CINEMA]

GV80 or Acura MDX type S? 🤔

[@tkdduqbear]

I subscribed. I know you have reviewed the X5 before as well. Would you guys choose gv80 or X5?

[@ACCELER8TV]

If you want more comfort, softer ride and tech that works better probably the GV80, if you want to have some fun the X5 is definitely more sporty and exciting.

[@tkdduqbear]

Thanks. I'm struggling to look over the fact that I'm paying similar $$$ for Genesis compared to BMW. I'm a victim of brand brainwashing

[@elyj.8612]

@@tkdduqbear I did it. I tested the X5, GLE and Q7, and I found the GV80 to be the best balanced SUV. It's expensive, yes, and I was leaning to the GLE probably because the same brand brainwashing, but then I checked all the boxes on the GLE to have the same features than in the GV80 comparable trim, and ended up costing like 10K more. That sealed the deal for the GV80.

[@tkdduqbear]

@elyj.8612 thanks for sharing! Why did Q7 not make the list for you? Also, any issues with the service experience on the GV80? I've read that although the car is nice, the expected service experience does not meet what you would expect from a luxury car dealership.

[@mko7680]

2025? Brother we still live in 2024..

[@arizonacolour8793]

They release next year vehicles 3-6 months early. To make you feel ahead of the curve. "They" = every manufacturer

[@mko7680]

@@arizonacolour8793 weird. Thats not the case in Germany. Released in 2024 = 2024 model. Makes sense.

They are pretty bumpy country roads tbh. We drove them through the city all week.

I super hate the front end of these Genesis cars. I know people dump on BMW but at least there is a heritage there. This thing just looks ugly.

[@JoseR-bw2gs]

Seems like a nice vehicle, but can’t buy a Hyundai.

[@CarsandTechInfo]

It's not a Hyundai. It's a Genesis. By that logic, you're saying an Acura is still a Honda, a Lexus is still a Toyota, an Infiniti is still a Nissan, an Audi or Porsche is still a VW, a Cadillac is still a Chevrolet, & a Lincoln is still a Ford when that's not true for most of the vehicles from each of those premium or luxury brands

[@JoseR-bw2gs]

@@CarsandTechInfo it’s exactly what I was thinking. But I would buy a Honda or Toyota.

[@kfx3907]

@@JoseR-bw2gsSo you are basically JDM fanboy. That's why you're biased.

[@JoseR-bw2gs]

@@kfx3907 not at all. I would buy a ford and a jeep, but never GM. Got burned real bad in 1987 with a 1988 Chevy Barreta and said I would never buy GM again. I really like the Yukon Denali but can’t do it.
