Most aren’t aware of the talent involved in the Genesis line. Manfred Fitzgerald formally of Lamborghini heads the team, Luc Donckerwolke (BMW, Bentley, Audi), Peter Schreyer (Audi), Albert Biermann (BMW M), Shag-yup Lee (Bentley), Alexander Selipanov (Bugatti) and Fayez Rahman (BMW). Genesis may be a S. Korean company but the development of the line is not. Expect nothing more than top notch luxury and engineering.

W Morris You don’t buy a luxury compact sports sedan for the space. Space is just an added bonus and for most cars in that segment nowadays it’s more than enough. If you want luxury with space you bump yourself up to the G80, 5 series, E class, Lexus GS etc etc. The Stinger is not a “truer” sports sedan than the G70. The Stinger is 136 LBs heavier than the awd g70 and has a longer wheelbase. G70 has a more rigid chassis. The Stinger is a GT cruiser. If you want a sports sedan you get the G70.

Of all the reviews I've seen on the G70, a feature no reviewer has commented on is that the speedometer is non-linear. Most speedos that indicate up to 180MPH have evenly spaced markings requiring that at most daily speeds, the needle only swings 20% - 35% of the range. This one has the major ticks at 10MPH up to 60MPH, then the increment is 20MPH. It allows for good resolution at normal every day speeds but still will give the marketing department the never-to-be-seen-unless-dropped-from-an-airplane 180MPH.

Like with the KIA Stinger, if you don't care for a fancy badge to impress people, this is the car to get in this segment. It doesn't have the brand value of the Germans or Lexus yet, but it'll get there. Build it and they will come. Genesis will be like Lexus in 10-15 years. They just need to get that Luxury crossover to market so they really start getting that sales volume up.

I watch AoA so religiously, I started this video on mute and didn't notice until Alex started talking because I can hear the intro music so clearly in my head...

I keep vehicles long enough to live through several trends, and this trend is largely 'driven' by the images they show off daily in our media diet, I say buy what you need and like and you will be spot on at least once or twice. Good reviews easy to comprehend and understand.

Hey Alex, I drove the 3.3 TT (slight turbo lag) for an entire weekend in Vancouver, Canada in Oct/'18 and totally luved it except for: (a) the rear seats are small (b) The resale value & reliability concerns are HUGE (c) I found a huge vibration when cornering - could be the brake vectoring. BUT - The price point, the maintenance included, the valet service that I received was top notch, that engine was put thru its paces and handled it very well, huge amounts of torque (I enjoy to drive spiritedly when safe to do so- Very very happy with that engine & transmission), many Drive Modes, great sound system and all the safety features. I used that right pedal and my mileage took a big hit. I also drove on eco mode on a highway trip for 100 kms and got 12.6/100 kms. The comparable cars will set you back $15K for similar features and options. Its $57,500 Cdn plus taxes for the 3.3TT version. No extra fees, at all. I like the looks. My tester had the Blue ext with Red Brembos, dark wheels along with the black & red int. That quilted interior is gorgeous. Lets talk about the VALET service - If you want a test drive they bring the car to you. If you buy it they deliver your new vehicle on a flat bed truck to reduce any additional mileage, when you need servicing (all included for 5 years) they come to you to pick up and after service they deliver it to you. No additional charges. 5 yrs maintenance costs included. Here in Vancouver they are working on a track days program for customers and they do have rally days currently. Really it has every feature that you want AND the drive, sportiness, turning radius, that GORGEOUS interior & that ENGINE...WOW!!! Cheers from Vancouver, Canada.

This review was my first time on your channel. I like your rather car geek analytical approach. It also is one of the more comprehensive and balanced reviews I’ve seen. The Germans don’t seem to understand how many don’t want to buy $10K in options for things that are standard in the base model of this car. They also design famously complex and unreliable vehicles that can spend a lot of time at the dealer while under warranty and bankrupt you out of warranty.

The G70 , G80 , Gv80 , G90 are an awesome line up 💪🏾👍🏾💯

A very handsome machine. And I imagine very well built and reliable.

Really enjoyed the review of the G70 today, excellent details with market comparison's! Personally, like your comment at the end, I prefer sedan or sport sedan over crossover or SUV, so I was elated that Genesis designed and built this car! Living in Washington State we are awaiting for completion of contract Genesis Dealer Network to resolved, even now at January 7th of 2019. This last March 2018 my son and I went up to Vancouver BC International Car show to see this amazing car. Just the seating position and comfort of the drivers seat along with everything else pretty much sold me on the car. I am waiting till this December 2019 to purchase, hopefully I can accomplish the purchase here in Washington, however if need be I will go to Henderson, Nevada or Las Vegas to do so at that time. Our local Deal in Skagit Valley has promised me that this will happen …… I should be have been born in the "show me state" in stead of else where! Cheers, John

I love this car, period.

Ive got 700 miles on my G70 Sport AWD 3.3T. It is a fantastic vehicle. What they dont talk about is how easy these cars are to mod for A TON more HP as well. These engines have a boatload of room in them. By bying a piggyback tuner, you can very easily get another 75HP/TQ without any effort at all. If you dont mind running high octane gas, you can get well over 100HP more with nothing but basic mods such as an intake.

9:09 Invisible Touch by Genesis! I sat in one at the Nov 2018 San Francisco Auto Show and was quite pleased, but "sigh", not able to test drive...yet. A coupe version would be quite smashing indeed!

I really really like the rear end design of this car!!

Reminds me of the time when Infiniti entered the game with its G35. Reminds me of Alfa Giulia... I like the short front overhang and the sporty/understated details throughout.

Thanks for another great video! Keep it up!

The best thing about this car is that it does everything I want it to do good enough, at the right price. There is not much to complain about because the price point is right on the mark. This is a rare thing to get right in any business. To everyone wondering, yes, it's quite reliable, it just hasn't built the reputation yet because it's still a young brand.

This is an AWESOME review...such a big fan of this car. Understated but a beast on the road. I'm as big a BMW fan as anyone, and I think I would take this over the next gen 3-series... that is a statement i never thought I would hear myself say...

Genesis on the radio. I see what you did there. Hat tip to you sir.

It's a great handling car , i love the 2.0t that's the one i'm going to buy

Thanks for your great review. I am waiting for the G70 to be released in New Zealand and will be buying one. The separate "Genesis" branded dealer network has created delays I believe as those showrooms need to be built still.

Stinger GT owner here. My commute consists highly on highway driving, but I am consistently averaging 24-25 mpg, worst at 19 mpg in street driving. I'm sure G70 will be right there.

Great in depth review. A crossover or SUV is required to get traffic but regarding the G70....I would but one over ALL the competitors in the field for overall balance in all categories.

Great review Alex. Thank you. After giving it a lot of thought, I got the 2.0T Prestige instead the 3.3T. I found it littler and nimbler, and the cash I saved in the engine, I putted on features that I really like, but I would like a performance review for the 2.0T from you. Have you done that, or planning to do it?

Thank you for your review Alex. How cramped are the back seats compared to competition? Seems like it's really tight back there

Picking up my 3.3t Elite on Thursday! The car is a dream, I knew it would be. A big thing for me was that I could buy from a Hyundai store, especially after being consistently prejudged at “luxury” dealerships by the jaded suit coats behind the desk. Carmakers need to realize that younger shoppers have been conditioned to think they don’t belong in these stores, probably why most friends my age who upgrade their car go with something like a high trim Jeep, Mustang, pickup truck, Volkswagen, etc that cost just as much in the end

Car Of The Year for me

Can't lie, that's a really nice looking car.

i think G70 is the best model among the whole genesis lineup.i am going for a test drive for sure.

Great review. I think a compact luxury sport sedan is a great choice. I don't want to have to buy a large car for luxury and I love the maneuverability of a car over even a compact SUV. The G70 will get serious consideration when I shop for my next vehicle.

I have a Lexus IS now, and the G70 is near the top of my list to replace it. The IS has enough power for me, but I've driven faster cars and wouldn't mind being able to compete with the S4 and C43 for less money. I also have driven a Genesis, a G80 actually, and really enjoyed it. So, I think there's a good chance I'd like the G70 as well.

I was waiting for the G70 but ran out of time so I test drove the Stinger, A4, and Giulia Ti Sport. Stinger is a super cool looking, comfy cruiser and fast in a straight line but man did it guzzle gas. A4 was classic good at everything, great at nothing. Giulia looked and handled like something twice the price, while still getting great fuel economy. That's what I leased and it's absurd how the thing can tear up a twisty road and still be comfortable in traffic. Epic car. Guess I'll have the check out the G70 when my lease is up.

You are a pro

I am glad that Genesis is hiring good talent, and it is quite obvious when you look at the finished product. Genesis has come out of the gate strong and they are being very well received. Look for sales to take off as soon as the dealership mess is settled.

I really, really want one of these. I hope that soon I can buy one used or later if I have enough money then ill get a new one

Genesis is killing it. The dealer aspect is a huge problem, which I hope is sorted out soon.

The Hyundai/Kia partnership continues to knock it out of the park. They're doing an amazing job of offering vehicles that share components while appealing to somewhat different sub-segments of a particular market category. The 2019 Santa Fe and the Kia Sorento is one example. The G70 and Stinger is another. I suspect that the Hyundai Palisade and Kia Telluride will follow a similar pattern. Unfortunately, while the shared aspects of their vehicles is a strength, it's also a weakness in a few areas. The most obvious is in engine design where they continue to trail the competition in fuel efficiency. Not a deal breaker but a compact sedan that struggles to average 20 mpg reminds me of the atrocious mileage I experienced in my Mazda RX-8. It was a constant irritation. Overall of course, Hyundai's biggest blunder with the G70 has nothing to do with the quality and features of the vehicle. It's the almost unbelievable failure to get their ducks in a row with a Genesis dealership network in the US by the time their most popular vehicle was set to be introduced. Hopefully it won't prove to be a long term injury. The G70 deserves far better than to be a great car that most consumers can't buy.

@@gerijokub7737 No, I'm not comparing the fuel consumption of a rotary engine to a conventional internal combustion engine. I'm only noting that each represents a small, relatively light sporty vehicle with lackluster fuel efficiency. With a fuel tank of less than 16 gallons the range of a G70 is only about 300 miles including the reserve. Even my RX-8 had a greater range than that, primarily because it had a larger fuel tank. As it happens I'm a fan of the Korean brands. But there's no question that the weak spot in the engineering of most of their vehicles is fuel efficiency.

Alex, it seems to have been a while since you've done an Audi A4 review or comparison. How do you think it compares to the G70 and the 3-Series?

The G70 is my Lotttery car. The one I buy if I win the lotto. It's not a $100,000.00 super car, but it performs like one, and is understated enough that it doesn't paint a target on itself. If you want a Pagani Huayra, RR Phantom, or even something like a Dodge Demon, you do you, they are all fantastic cars. But for me, for practicality, luxury, and performance, this is what does it for me. And it cost less than the average pickup truck my coworkers own.

This is my favorite car right now. And it looks nicer inside and out than the Kia stinger!
