The 2015 Hyundai Genesis is selling like by the thousands here in LA. A lot of high/middle class people are buying this car, and most of them are coming from BMWs and Audis. The AWD transmission on this car is amazing and the handling is on the heavy side, makes the driver feel confident on highways. And the 3.8L V6 is certainly one of the most powerful in this segment, making it a very satisfying driving experience.

[@davidbennett9198]

UltimateDriver I live in NYC and I bought the 2015 Hyundai Genesis 3.8L V6 2 weeks ago and this is the best car I've bought so far. My previous car was the 2006 BMW 530i and that says something.

You can’t say that when this car is competing with other sport sedans

[@asko2677]

It's a great car! My 2015 3.8 AWD with signature and tech packages is doing just fine. It only has 44K miles, so many more to go! And it was only $25K at 3 years old (original price $49K). Don't let the haters and car snobs influence your car purchase (5 series with comparable options was over $70K)! BTW, I did have a 5 series back in 2010, while it was sportier, it was not more comfortable, nor did it offer any of the awesome features that the Genesis does!

[@ravipeiris4388]

Absolutely beautiful luxury saloon. Amazing how the dashboard and overall interior design has been completely changed from the first generation Genesis.

[@peacepeace5930]

I’m a bmw enthusiast but I have to give a tip of the hat to how far Hyundai has come just wow and for the price. I’ll garage my e34 m5 and my e85 z4m. And gladly buy this genesis . Hopefully in my garage by the end of this year. Very nice car great price and I know Hyundai is reliable my mother owned a few nice reliable cars . Nothing bad to say here .

[@iwearleatherjackets1]

Gorgeous, inside and out. Good job, Hyundai.

[@MadDuck]

Just got mine. Sweet ride, man. Best car I've ever owned. Couldn't believe the value for the price. From the side, it looks like a BMW 5 series. From the front, it looks like a Bentley or AM. Super fast. Super quiet. Super tech'd out. Super niiiice! If you're considering a MB or BMW, look at this one first. I went in for a test drive, drove out with the car.

[@PanameraTurboSEHybrid]

I drove the 5.0, this thing really moves. Now I'm on the fence between the Q70s and this car; one feature that I love that this car has that the Q70 doesn't is the Panoramic roof. No one should compare this car to the Honda Accord, Acura TL, Toyota Camry, Ford Taurus, nor Chevy Impala no competition.

[@vlad1889]

+J Silver I have 2012 m37 and i test drove the new genesis and it's a beautiful, refined, and quite quick on its feet. However, people don't seem to notice it as much as they would the Q70 nor does it sound anything as aggresive as the Q70. Depends what you want. More bang for your money or better sound and the snub factor?

[@PanameraTurboSEHybrid]

Yeah, the Q70 is also an amazing car. But I see more Hyundai Genesis's out on the road than the Q70/M37-56.

[@vladbilyy6652]

Well, for few reasons. 1) Price difference 2) warranty 3) refinement. Q70 would run you additional 10-15 k not to mention the interior is updated not redesigned and the same for exterior. Hyundai is a much better value. However, like I said, the badge is not the same nor the sound.

Awesome review Sofyan. I'm really impressed with how #Hyundai was able to make such a vehicle like the Genesis a much more competitive luxury sedan than ever before. In addition, the beneficial technological features, like the lane keeping assist you mentioned & featured at 19:20, including the lane departure warning and forward collision warning should definitely be some of the key points that will help the vehicle sell very well too. - Michael Land

How is the reliability so far? I am thinking about buying the 5.0 2015 Genesis.

I currently own a 2001 Hyundai Grandeur, it used to be luxury back in its day, but dear god, I'm drooling looking at the Genesis, the blue with the white leather and real wood interior. om nom nom nom

+Brian Haack I surely think that the Genesis is a worthy upgrade to your present car.

heeeeey we had one too (but in Canada here it's called an XG300/XG350 depending the engine size). Man we kept that car from 2003 to 2013, drove it to 225000kms and honestly had 0 issues with it, and then we got a 2009 genesis 3.8 in 2013 and it now has 102000kms on it and she has had no issues. Cheers!

[@elliottmanning4116]

Besides it being RWD, I think the main competitors of the Genesis are the Cadillac XTS, Lincoln MKS, and Lexus ES.

[@iNTERHiGH9]

Hyundai is not one of the best car makers in the market at the moment, obviously. However, when you have a look at the history of their rapid growth in the global auto market for the last decade, you will be surprised. There's neither everlasting winners nor everlasting losers in a market. Just 20 years ago, who would think that Samsung and LG would make better electronic gadgets than Japanese electronic companies? Hyundai is definitely stepping forward and doing what they need to do to go up to the next level. No matter what haters grumble about Hyundai cars on youtube video 24/7, Hyundai is doing a good job and the market has responded. Well, closed-minded haters will always be closed-minded haters though.

The 2015 Hyundai Genesis is on par with BMW 5 series and other German luxury cars within this price range and far superior than anything Lexus or Infiniti makes.

+Korean Pride Hyundai Genesis is a very good car, I pick it over any European brands, however, there is nothing on the market that is par with Lexus in means of quality. European cars are junk i.e. unreliable. The only sad thing about Hyundai and Kia, they are now ran by European engineers and managers. Without doing that Koreans did not have the chance on international market. However, working with Europeans means that Koreans will lose their ownership of that brand in the end. Especially if they want to run things themselves after sometime, Europeans will not allow it. Americans helped Japanese to be self sufficient on their technology, there is no nation that Europeans helped could achieve self-sufficiency by means.

Hyundai and Kia are making good reliable cars that are well made. I think their styling is still a bit lacking but you rarely hear a complaint about these cars. After sales service is great if you ever need it and service costs reasonable. They need a range of vehicles with 3 plus tonne tow rating for those of us that tow and a proper 4wd with ute variant. Hope they build them soon, l know l will be lining up.

[@Ganbala]

For me this car is a 10\10 . Acura is a luxury sedán and don't offer something like this ,remember that .

[@illmæticz]

Hey Sofyan, I have seen your review on a lot of different Acura models. I have a question how does this new Genesis compare with the RLX in terms of reliability, resale value and driving dynamics ? I know the fact that the RLX J35 motor is butter smooth and durable but it comes with front wheel drive and the overall styling is not the best but the Acura logo does offer good value for the long run. The new Genesis seems pretty good so far, only concern if the car would hold up for a long period of time? Thanks

That chime is pretty calming to listen to when you start the engine, maybe it's just me :D Overall, Hyundai did a great job, and the only time you'll know it's a Hyundai is through the Hyundai logo badge on the back of the vehicle. Other than that, you won't know, and is just a normal Genesis vehicle.

A car companies reputation is earned and its sad that they are obviously paying people to spam on you tube videos about their cars. Please stop this Hyundai it makes you look bad. Not to say the car company hasn't earned a much better reputation in recent years. This kind of thing is not necessary: "Hyundai is the cutting edge in terms of technology. For the same price, Hyundai cars beat Toyota, Ford and Nissan.", "The Hyundai Genesis is definitely better value than all other cars in the same price range. The Hyundai Genesis' technology even exceeds those cars that are $20K more expensive. Hyundai = advanced tech company", "Hyundai manufactures jet engines and jet engine parts to aerospace companies in Europe and also Lockheed Martin. Hyundai = advanced tech company. " Same repetitive comments from the same people. its just so obvious. That kind of behavior is not normal. AND the person they hired to do the positive comments was too laze to change the text in some of the comments. "Hyundai = advanced tech company" yeah spam that a few more times. Jeeze.

After 1 year on our roads in the northeast, I wouldn't mind it a tick softer, but it is far more poised and polished than the Altima 3.5 I owned for the previous 6 years.

I own a 2012 Hyudai Genesis. At 40K miles the transmission starting to go out. The windows controller started to fail. The rails for the seat started to make loud metal on metal rubbing noise, I only weigh 160 lbs. The radio head unit has to many bugs and issues, I have to reset the radio constantly to get it to work properly. I also have a 2012 Hyundai Veloster that I use for my commute to work. At 40k miles the transmission started to fail also. I would jerk at low speeds between 1st and 2nd gear. I just would not switch gear properly. I brought it in to the dealer on several occasions. Each time they would tell me that there was nothing they could do since they couldn't get any error code from the transmission. After my Veloster hit 100K miles, the transmissio completly died. They dealer gave me the cold shoulders and told me there is nothing they can do for me unless I wanted to pay for the repairs. There was a known issue with the transmission and even their tech agreed with me when I took him for a ride along. Bottom line is Hyundai will not honor their warranty and their worksmanship is still severly lacking. Stay far far far away from them. There are plenty of better choices out there.

[@andyjung3387]

why are you making up stories...

[@chanin6014]

Take it for what it's worth. I paid good money for a product and service. I believe Hyundai didn't live up to it's promise and I'm here educating others from making the wrong choice. You don't have to believe anything I say just as I don't gives a rat's ass about you. Andy.

+Chan In Sorry for your troubles. Have you considered taking legal action.

I have a 2009 3.8 sedan (the first year for the car) at 102,000kms and I've had no issues with it at all. The leather is holding up incredibly well. The engine still runs smoohtly, tranny is fine. Suspension components are great. The only issue is I blew the rear 8" sub LOL but seriously man you just have bad luck or maybe it's how you drive and maintain your cars if BOTH have similar issues. But that's really unfortinate. Even our '05 Santa Fe V6 has had no issues at ~160000 kms

Sounds like you beat the shit out of them. Uber?

I got a 2013 Tucson and im pretty surprised by how great the quality is. Been owning it for a year and it has no problem. It is however, still not as good as Volkswagen, but pretty close.

Are you going to do a review of the 2015 Hyundai Azera? 😀

[@websterstubbs5882]

The gritty engine is attractive

[@cormacsage7126]

3.8 is the best to my knowledge

[@L30NHART]

Dat interior and front grill. Nice! A few negatives though; they should get rid of the Hyundai badge in the back. Add signature lights! Dealership experience is my concern though. If I'm going to purchase a premium car, I want the premium experience too. I can't imagine "Billy Bob's Hyundai Toyota dealer of Texas" would offer premium service, owner benefits/lifestyle club, and premium satisfaction.

[@johnnyjohnson8928]

What do you mean with the dealership experience? Don't get mad, I am 13.

[@jy1240]

Joni Papuli Basically premium dealerships like audi or mercedes have nicer lounges, offer free lunch/amenities, and overall give you that feel like ahhh this is money.

[@L30NHART]

Pedro Pedrosoy Sure thing kid. Thats why EVERYONE buys a Hyundai instead of a Lexus or Mercedes.

[@L30NHART]

kirin light Also; free hotel nights, free valet, discounts at resorts, vehicle drop off and pickup for service, and detailing service just to name a few. Having a contemptuous attitude is a shitty way to live, kirin.

[@jy1240]

L30NHART What's so contemptuous about letting a person know the difference in dealership experience?

[@susgojo1125]

So is this a good and reliable first car

[@alexrazmjookhah6195]

Why y'all keep get rid of Hyundai badge? Its a nice Hyundai and the company wants to show that off! They are not ashamed to put a big fat Hyundai badge to show what they built.

[@vincentliu8269]

I’m about to buy the 3.8 used. How is the reliability?

[@oldtwins]

Repeat buyers in this price range usually go with an upscale brand because of the dealership experience. There's a heightened level of service that you only get with a BMW, Mercedes, Lexus. I would be a little apprehensive myself putting down 50k on a car while the service bay brings out a budget minded Elantra for the guy next to me. They might be able to make some sales with younger buyers who haven't been accustomed to good dealership experience, but these cars aren't performance minded!

Does it still have the keyfob charger ?
