The back of the Lexus is sexy ,but over all the Genesis looks more Luxurious

No the RX isn’t good looking to any level.

As a Korean, I just wish the Hyundai/Genesis group had the technology of Toyota/Honda, etc and was able to incorporate their system into the existing vehicles. I know that through electrification (HEV, PHEV and EV lineups), the cars have definitely become far more reliable than they used to be, but there's still room to grow.

[@joo02]

@@shannonha2331 from my understanding, Hyundai/Kia always had an edge over Toyota/Honda in terms of technology (bluetooth, wireless connection, etc) Newer Genesis GV80 has a new infotainment w/ 27in widescreen which has been lacking in any japanese cars

The RX is just another Rav 4 with upgrades.. I love my GV 80 with 5 years free schedule service... My 3.5 TT is smooth and in the sport mode, it propels to overtake most of the cars on the highway. And most of all, 3.5TT has dual portside and direct injections to reduce the carbonation of the valves ..

[@alwaysiyi272]

The Genesis defintely looks more upscale on the inside while the RX looks sportier especially with that red interior. I was very surprised the Lexus was quiter and smoother over rough pavements. Overall, I think I would pick the Lexus, i prefer its styling, but I would go for the RX500h, you get decent performance with better fuel efficiency

[@08VaNupe]

I agree I’d get the RX500h as well

[@chiemekaa]

I can't believe Genesis is getting rid of the classic layout of the infotainment and the gauge cluster for the tacked on full flat panel screen seen on almost every other brand for the 2025 GV80. I'm sure they could've found a way to house the gauge cluster while still offering the screen. And I think the GV70 is also going the same route, sadly.

[@philhenderson3516]

It is a creative way to cut down costs. They save on not having two separate, independent panels and lesser dash material. I also dislike the changes but I can understand why. They're just following the Mercedes trend which is unfortunate.

[@dirkiedoos8577]

Not sure why you need software to prove the Lexus is a softer ride. Just look at the wheels! GV80 with 22 inch wheels and therefore very little sidebar is always going to be a harsher ride over road imperfections.

[@iSOBigD]

Definitely tire and wheels there, but you'll notice other people who test drove them found the GV80 much softer. When I test drove a fully loaded one, I found it nice and soft, but not as soft as a G90. It's not rough by any means, it's what you'd expect out of a luxury car.

[@badongtagalog5737]

1in wheel difference miles apart in readings. No not really. 19in lexus models are suprisingly as smooth as their 21in. Things are always subjective until you use a tool. He done a good job on that tool

[@jsfbay1]

And the Genesis is a RWD architecture with a longitudinally mounted engine. I'd much rather tune this engine than anything in the Lexus since those are transverse mount engines and I'm not convinced those much smaller transmissions can take the torque of a tune. I may be wrong of course, but generally I believe that (FWD transmissions) is generally the case.

[@pawelz8072]

Let’s get real, no one will be tuning either of these boats. The ICE in the RX500h only drives the front wheel, the rear is powered exclusively via electric motor mounted in the rear differential.

the screen is great, huge, and high resolution, backup camera is awesome... what I dont like after having a mercedes E class is the backup camera gets dirty in winter a lot, where the merc had a flip out camera that was always clean..

Sooo many people making comments when they cant afford them, have never looked at one, never sat in one, or never driven one... I have a RX500h, I love it.. I looked at a GV80, very nice.. but felt bigger, heavier, and too floaty on the road. I like the RX for its size (not too big but big enough) and im 6'5" tall.. 240 lbs. I liked the GV, but the RX was just better for me around town etc.. I dont like all the safety beeps etc, but you can turn a lot of the beeps off... Everything is easy to use. I have gotten used to the steering wheel buttons and functions etc.. It is a luxury ride, F sport - fyi thats a joke there is nothing sport about it.. Interior has lots of soft touch, and is more luxurious in real life than any video shows.. the mark levinson sound will blow your ear drums, its too bright, I had to turn treble and mids to zero, with bass at 6, its more than you need........ Engine is very smooth for a 4 cyl and thats one thing I was worried about, but after a 30 minute cruise around the city I knew they refined it and isolated it nicely, ride is very good, it handles well - not sporty, just about right.... The GV80 has a softer ride, bit too soft for me - you found the lexus softer... maybe it was the floaty suspension that threw me off on the GV...500h is quite quick - I never drove the 350 etc or lower models as I wanted some power, 250 hp doesnt cut it for me.... 366 is much better.. Im happy with my purchase.

I have to assume dealer network is better than Genesis. Genesis GV80/ big car, big presence, for a name plate that has only been around 4 years, sure you ae buying a car that has a unique exterior design. seems well appointed to exude luxury, interior spaciousness and most important keeping the 6cyl engine option available for customers. I am not sure if the GV80 has reliability, questionable dealer network or great resale value. I currently own a 2011 MDX with 6cyl 300HP, SH-AWD and seating for 7.

Come on, man, you choose a v6 hyundai genesis to compare to Lexus 4, and the 4 obviously outperformed in terms of ride, isolation, and entertainment, yet you choose the Hyundai? That the same reason you also chose an iPhone with that big ugly cut-out? Smart luxury car shoppers don't just buy for style but also the experience and cred. Bringing your so-called luxury car to a Hyundai dealership for maintenance is in no way, shape, or form considered luxury. The genesis has an old throw-back Buick vide, which is attractive but will age faster. And is it me, or does the back seats in the GV look like a coffin?? The Lexus has a much lighter, current, and sporty demeaner that will appeal to more younger buyers. Throw in cred and possibly better reliability, and that's a winning combination for future retail value when you go to sell it.

Interesting - as Genesis trys and pushes into the Luxury class. But a Lexus has pedigree - reliability and build quality and you feel that in the damping but also ALL the buttons and surfaces. The dials and other inclusions (no car play etc) plus plus - means you really can't seriously compare. If you like the genesis then great but I have also driven both and played with them and this is something that is not really a like for like - save for a superficial view.

[@jackd232]

I think maybe Caddy is the worst luxury Suv maker, Lexus is second worst, cheap build all around, the car chassis of Janpanese car nowdays are all about cutting budgets, had a RX350h, the damn front left suspension broke twice in 3 months, nah, for quality and drivers car I don't recommend Lexus at all. I also have experiences driven Mecedes, Cadillac, Toyota, Honda, Chevy. Think the Japanese cars are the worst for spirit drivers, they are cheap for a reason. Most of Lexus sold to those middle age women have no ideas about cars in general, they are slowing down and jamming every drive way..........🙃

I would take the rx over the gv any day …. But not in this color the white and the grey suit it better in my opinion

[@Investor_philips]

90k for a genesis? its a great vehicle but if i have 90k to spend on a vehicle it would be an audi q8 or a merc eqe. Majority of the people who have 90k won't even spend it on a premium Hyundai

[@SamCarLegion]

Yes, it is pricey but it does give you more space and more tech features. You can also buy it used and save a lot of money.

So a Genesis is a Hyundai.. but an Audi isn’t a Volkswagen? Definitely biased.. Genesis shares nothing with Hyundai.. unlike Audi and VW in the U.S this vehicle is 75-80k.

@@theofficialquent3488there’s a big difference between saying Audis are fancy VWs and the Audi q7 is a fancy VW atlas. The difference is that the q7 is not a nice atlas. It’s completely differentiated from the atlas

Naturellement le Lexus dans tous les cas.

Acheter une Lexus moins chère qu’une genesis avec plus de fiabilité de valeur de revente et d’économie c’est logique.

[@toddolson7273]

The interior of the GV80 is overly complex and not classy. No wireless apple CarPlay. the Lexus exterior is much more stylistic - and free flowing - not boxy. No mention of gas mileage performance, reliability or safety systems.

[@SamCarLegion]

I am not consumer report - they can tell you about reliability…hopefully

[@toddolson7273]

@@SamCarLegion reliability appears to be excellent for both cars as well as safety. Lexus wins on MPG. I noticed the bad reviews on the Genesis GV80 were really about after the sale issues and service. Not sure if the service personnel for Genesi is the same as a Hyundai - that may explain it. In Phoenix they're both sold thru the same dealer.

[@Mark-de4hj]

Just FYI due to numerous misinformation. This car was called the Hyundai Genesis when it was first introduced. It is a Hyundai vehicle which is serviced by Hyundai workers in Hyundai dealerships. That in itself may not matter to some but no true luxury car buyer wants to hang inside a low budget dealership with their expensive vehicle...unless you want to show off to other Hyundai folks...they seem to be the only ones impressed. Luxury is proof of time, longevity, quality and reliability. The RX has been at the top of its game for over 20 years and still manages to remain there. That's quite a feat for any car company especially in today's competitive market, and why all these imitations have now popped up. Maybe in 10-15 more years the Hyundai genesis might have proven its right to be taken seriously by real luxury car buyers instead of side-bench fans who have never even sat in one and will never own one. This 'coffin-like interior and reflective shinny knobs would be distracting to live with along with the rough ride. And does anyone actually believe that directing music to the front speakers would stop rear passengers hearing it? lol You can direct music to the front speakers in most cars!

I believe that gv80 has brought about advancements in materials engineering and design engineering. Genesis' expensive aluminum arms and suspension, which have excellent vibration control and absorption capabilities comparable to those of Mercedes-Benz and BMW, are also made of aluminum. It looks like no expense was spared in the use of materials. The BMW design engineering data and philosophy of Biermann, a former BMW chief engineer who oversaw the m project, were reflected, and most of the design took some of the driving and riding comfort advantages of the Mercedes-Benz BMW. At the same time, it feels like it has a bit of a Land Rover feel somewhere between a German car and a British car. When I actually drove it, it felt like a good combination of the sensibilities of German cars, Japanese cars, British cars, and American cars. To put it negatively, it was disappointing that Hyundai Motor Company did not have an extreme identity. Personally, I wish they would no longer use shift dials and ugly handle designs.
