Only the first couple of seconds of the video I realized that you guys were driving the Genesis GV70 and I had a feeling that it was going to be the first pick. I’d have to say, I would 100% agree! Hyundai/Kia/Genesis has really been killing it the past few years!

I like some of their vehicles like this, but they have also done a lot of bad things. Fires in both ICE and EV vehicles. Theta II engine disaster Fuel economy ratings scandal Not installing engine immobilizers on many vehicles making them theft and joyride targets. What else?

Nice review gentlemen, if I wanted to buy an SUV in this segment it will be either the RDX or GV70!
Good job guys! You nailed this list!
Have owned Mercedes, BMW, Lexus in the past and currently drive a Genesis. Besides not having its dedicated dealerships readily available, I can tell you its one of the best luxury brands out there. It’s luxurious, reliable, and got great warranty. I have noticed Japanese vehicles going down in both quality and reliability, not as superb as they are used to be known as. Also, Genesis has huge price advantage when compared to German brands with similar configures. I would consider Genesis as the first choice until it disappoints me.
I can’t believe how accurately non bias this list is. It is almost the exact same order I would have done it in. Very nicely done guys.
Good for Genesis!
Fantastic video!😸
Great video.
Great job. I agree with you 100% based on the 1s I’ve driven at least. I’ve owned the GV70 and traded it for a Hyundai Ioniq 5, but would love to get the eGV70 if I can afford it. I test drove several of the others. The GV70 is insanely good for the money, and an amazing job from Genesis on their 1st try in the segment.
I really enjoy your comparison videos to see who wins at the end. Thank you for all that you two do on your car reviews. So glad I found your channel.

Thank you, Chuck! We appreciate it 😁
Nicely done! This list feels right. While I haven't driven all of them, based on reviews and personal experience, the order seems spot on.
Good sensible list. I seriously shopped your top 5, and bought a GV70 3.5 Sport Prestige (Uyuni white over red/charcoal). Six months in zero regrets. To shop the Germans and match the GV70's specs, you end up adding practically every option they offer; the GLC43 was over $80K spec matched. Genesis belongs............

Genesis makes really, really good cars so far. I love their products so far.
I always like it when Car Confections makes awesome and fun videos like this :)
How about comparing all of the 4 cylinder options? I drove the Genesis 3.5 and it was too much (in a variety of ways). I am surprised the Macan is not on this list
I’ve driven many of them and personally the Lincoln Corsair is my favorite
Hi Car Confections Can You Make The 2022 Lincoln Corsair Reserve
The Genesis is going to take home the crown 👑
the Lincoln corsair, has the best looking roof line of all of them , like the genesis for being rwd base , lexus NX for lexus reliability , bottom of the list for looks the NX
Pls pick Midsize luxury SUVs & Sedans too
I think the NX should have scored a bit higher, well lower in terms of 1-10

I don’t see how you can call the Genesis number One when you have a Media screen that is mounted so far away and Narrow making it difficult to reach and read. The interior does not make up for the media screen as this is what you have to interface with all the time. just sayin !!!!

There is also a controller on the center console in addition to being a touchscreen. FYI
Just purchased a 2023 Porsche Macan S and after looking at several other compact SUV's the Macan is the best by a large margin if you care about driving dynamics and performance. It is not cheap but if you can afford it you won't be disappointed.
This is a hard choice I would choose the Volvo XC60 or genesis gv70!
Bias! Funny how you talk about Infiniti inside s Genesis, i shows! Infiti should not be even on this list since it is forgotten and downgraded
So basically, get a top trim Mazda CX 50 and save a ton of money.
Vinfast VF8 number 1 and Acura Rdx number 2 😎😎

Just to share my experience and inform your subscribers: as a 2020 GLC owner, it is by far and absolutely the most garbage vehicle I have ever had in the last 25 years. Super unreliable and too many failures. Even Mercedes dealership told me that it is the vehicle with most complaints. I will Never go back to german hypes again.

@@robtaylor4365 the RDX isn’t based off the crv. the platform it uses is bespoke. Not shared with lesser Hondas As for the nx though, it’s literally just a rav4 underneath.

I have to be honest about the GV 70. I would not buy that in any other color except White. The problem is that every GV 70 in any other color I have seen at a traffic light, the rear quarter just seems to disappear into the street and the rest of the cars and the back actually becomes very ugly when that happens. So at least with white it doesn't just blend in to the asphalt and scenery, and you actually can see the curves

Reliability is based largely on the owners. Most ppl can't afford to maintain luxury, but drive it, whine about "unreliablity" 🤡
