Genesis has already surpassed all U.S. and Japanese car brands in both emotional and technical aspects. Perhaps, considering the price, you can directly compete with German luxury car brands and get satisfaction similar to Mercedes-Benz and Bmw. If you look at a few cheap Hyundai Kia cars and judge a Genesis car, it is nonsense. The person who delivers more than 8,000 cars a year made in Germany, the U.S., Japan, Korea, and France is being honest. Recently, Hyundai Kia Motors is more comfortable and less broken than Toyota, Honda and Nissan, and Genesis cannot be compared to American or Japanese brands except Mercedes Benz and BMW. If you are brainwashed into Toyota's durability myth and Audi's German brand image, try driving about 10 Genesis.

Oh, the Korean fanbois are so funny 🤣 The weighted average of the reliability rankings from Consumer Reports for the last 5 years: #1 Lexus, #2 Toyota, #3 Mazda, #4 Honda, #5 Acura, ... #8 Porsche, #11 BMW (#9 last year), #18 Genesis (#18 LY), #21 Mercedes (#29 last year). It's even funnier with the TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) for 15 years in the USA: #1 Toyota ~10k, #2 Mitsubishi ~13k, #3 Lexus ~13k, #4 Honda ~ 14k, #5 Mazda ~14k... #20 Genesis ~22k, #27 Mercedes ~26k, #31 BMW (Bring My Wallet) ~30k, #32 Porsche ~33k! Good luck with Mercedes, BMW! True, Genesis is better than most of the German luxury brands, but very far away from Lexus.

@@light-light, let's suppose you are right.

Oh, I am sure Hyundai/Kia/Genesis did not cause their cars' brakes to fail and cause many people to die. I am sure Hyundai/Kia/Genesis did not falsify their safety results. It is not always about Consumer Reports; it is about those who use their brains and go for the right brand, which is Genesis. Seriously, go look at every rating out there, even the reputable Car and Driver rates Lexus cars so low, and Genesis cars are always three to one in their rankings. AND, Genesis isn't even a decade old. Lexus is occasionally not even in the top five. Seriously, reliability for what? Sacrificing the best of the modern world for less. It's amusing to see how easily people turn a blind eye and go with the flow. It's smart to occasionally try something else.

Lauren, thank you for recognizing the essence of luxury that defines the Genesis experience.

Yes. Korean clunkers are better than the German ones. But they are still unreliable and have big ownership costs, especially after the warranty period. There is no comparison to Lexus (#1 reliable auto brand), with a #3 low TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) - unbeatable in the luxury segment.

@codincoman9019

Unfortunately Genesis is only slightly better than the German luxury clunkers. There is no comparison to Lexus, the most reliable auto brand. Thus, adding the low TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) #3 ranking, Lexus has the best luxury cars - confirmed by the lowest depreciation in the luxury segments, unlike this Korean brand (it's not in the Top 10 reliability nor Low TCO).

Genesis is much more reliable than German brands? Yes, but compared to Lexus, it's hit or miss. Their models are still relatively new, so they still have a long way to go before they determine which component is best. The vehicle shown here, the GV80, was only launched in 2020 (as far as I can remember), so it's been four years since this car was launched, and this is the first refresh this car has gotten in that time.

Nice video keep up the good work

We own a 22 GV70 3.5TT Sport/Prestige. It has 35.5k miles on it after 2.5 years and while we love it, it has had a few failures including one towed trip to replace an oil sender (CVV or CBB at 6k miles). The car is a joy to drive; however, dealership support is abysmal. Until Genesis separates all its Genesis dealerships from Hyundai dealerships, they will have upset luxury car owners being treated as Hyundai owners.

Thanks guy, great review...

Love the upgrades

Lauren the pre-refresh GV80 3.5T with the Prestige package also had powered electric side window sunshades

Very nice car.

Great review Lauren! Korean ‘chic’ is a bit heavy on tchotchke embellishments on the exterior, as well as the interior with the quilting etc. I think a touch of restraint would go along way with GV80. I would love to see a sport version of this model where the exterior trim bits are toned down or painted to match. The wheels and overall proportions are spot on, but that double fender trim/light thingy is just too…much. Reminds me of the Import Car Club vibe from the 80’s and 90’s, where the only things missing are the triple-windshield wiper blades and sun visor club sticker!

This is beutiful

Hi Lauren. Great upgrades of the GV80. Genisis is really on top of their game. Personally they are the equal of premium Japanese and German brands and incredible value. Excellent choice for a luxury vehicle. Like always, a wonderful review, thank you carcoach.

The comparison with Japanese luxury (such as Lexus) is dumb. Genesis looks nice, but smart people will not buy a German or Korean clunker, given their lack of reliability (while Lexus is the most reliable auto brand and #3 low TCO = Total Cost of Ownership). While Genesis is not even in the Top 10 (reliability or low TCO).

Nowadays I drive 3 Japanese cars: a Lexus hybrid, a Miata ND2 and a Jimny LCV. Go ahead and buy a Genesis and tell me in less than 5 years what a dumb decision that was. My Lexus is the most reliable car in that segment, it has #3 low TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) after Toyota and Mazda, but very close to them.

I have an interesting for you: what do you think about Genesis GV80 extending the current suv for more leg room and a more luxurious limousine with a bump in horsepower? I would love to hear your thoughts on this.

So why not put the spare under the back like the Santa Fe?

Why can't I build the white exterior with white interior, like you're showing?

This chick is 🔥

I personally prefer the prior model. Sure, the enhancements to the front are refreshing, but everything else feels like a step backwards. Removing the exhaust tips was a mistake, took much of the rear design appeal, new wheels are not attractive, and that continuous screen trend is really getting tiring and makes it look akin to other Hyundai products. Prior interior design was a lot more distinctive. Btw, nice Chopard, very classy!
