Once again we begin a new year, throwing off the woes of the past one. Mark and Jack make (in my humble opinion) one of the BEST auto reviewing channels out there. They succulently go into details that others simply gloss over or regurgitate from press releases. The talk to engineers and dig in deep on details. The devil is always in the details. Always look forward to Jack's enthusiasm and balanced approach to Mark's pithy and bordering on bawdy comments. ( Love you Mark NEVER change). As the final thoughts wrapped up, I thought wow, they left out the audio part of it, and here comes Mark to wrap it up it up with a bow. The only other comment is "was that a used napkin next to the seat or one of Mark's snot rags? I know you guys don't do these videos alone, and kudos to everyone in the background. You guys are the superior reviewing channel out there. Wishing you great success in the coming year and looking forward to great content yet to come. Best regards JS

I had the worst experience having a Kia car. This was my first time I chose Kia because I liked the car that I was going to lease. The previous two cars that I drove were Toyota and they never ever gave me problems that usually an older car gives (one Problem on top of another). Imagine you trust the company, you get a brand new car thinking that “hey it’s a new car. I’m not going to have all the problems that old cars give" and then one day you wake up, your car is not starting, the next day brake lights don’t work, the following week another problem comes up.

I dont think many know that the designer of the Genesis models, Sangyup Lee, was the designer for Bentley. He designed vehicles under the Volkswagen group such as GM's Camaro and Corvette among others. He was head of exterior design for Bentley, and designed the Bentayga, Flying Spur, Continental GT etc. before moving to Genesis, which is why it's no joke when they say it's a Bentley on a budget.

Genesis is knocking it out of the park. Outstanding vehicles. I currently own a 2019 G80 Sport with 23k on the clock and have zero issues. Only complaint was stock Continental tires. Swapped that garbage out immediately for Michelin Pilot Sport 4s. Loving Life!😀

I think one of the biggest highlights Geese missed was the fact that both the 2.5T and the 3.5TT are both dual injection engines...meaning they both have port and direct injection which should be a better setup in the long run compared to competitors like the X5 (direct injection only, also the new MDX 3.0 turbo 6) with reliability.

This channel is so good. It gives all the info I need and the interesting teat bits as well. BTW, Genesis is breaking it out of the park. Such a good value proposition!

What I would point to in any discussion about the GV80 and a comparably equipped BMW X5 is the stellar reliability of Hyundai / Genesis, their ten year warranty, and the absolute *hosing* you will get every time you need to have virtually *anything* done on your BMW. (I'm surprised BMW hasn't started charging for putting air in the tires) Cost of ownership is a huge differential, and coupled with the fact that BMW has not been known for their bullet proof reliability of late, I think that there is a compelling argument to be made for the $10,000 cheaper Genesis. Especially when you take into consideration the fact that the value of both vehicles will plummet like rocks tossed from an airplane the minute you drive them off the lot.

I also really appreciate the construction/underbody viewpoint - stamped steel vs. aluminum, etc. This really starts to speak to the differences between say a GV80 and a Telluride and why you're paying the difference. I'd love to see more of this - for example, why an eLSD is important, potentially worth the money, what type we are really getting (eg electronically-controlled manual) and what that means. As you well know marketing really spins this type of stuff. Keep up the great work - well worth subscribing!

When you mentioned the hospital beds shifting your position every so often, that's how I know you were a nurse in your past life.

No one has ever needed to blur genitalia on a in vehicle infotainment screen. This is clearly premium, class leading, JD Power award winning content.

Using a currency configurator, my GV70 came in over $60k but that's competing with my potential X3 M40i build and so it is less of a heartbreak. The difference will undoubtedly be the future leasing incentives, which BMW will always eclipse competitors. Aside from the G70, these Genesis cars lease terribly.

Color me skeptical. We've had 2012, 2014, and 2016 Hyundais or Kias in various parts of our family. Each model was touted as when "Hyundai/Kia has definitely put their reliability problems behind them", and yet all 3 have averaged 3 unscheduled service visits (i.e. something is broken) a year since new, which is more than any of our Toyotas or Mazdas (or even, God help me, the one Ford) have had in *5* years, despite all being maintained per manufacturer guidance. And that despite said scheduled service being notably more expensive (because it's more frequent) than the Japanese brands. Maybe 2020 was the year Hyundai/Kia ACTUALLY turned the corner on reliability, but at this point I'm going to need to see 5 solid years of data via Consumer Reports or a similar service before they get another chance.

Mark, Love the new Genesis GV80 and your review, most everyone gives it great reviews. I know you'll be reviewing the new Acura MDX, we'd all love to see how these 2 match up. TIA

I cant be any more satisfied with our purchase. I got the v6 AWD drivetrain for my wife. Ride quality is gloriously magnificent, does not lose to any other luxury brands in this category, feels as if I am riding through clouds instead of hard asphalt road. Inside cabin is simple and yet refined and elegant - I much prefer this over some other makers' cluttered panels. Lastly, I notice many people doing double takes of this car. I am mightily pleased with the design - those on the design team (interior as well as exterior), along with the chassis and drivetrain team definitely nailed this one. I am also looking to purchase gv70 for myself as I prefer smaller vehicle when it comes out.

We're leasing a GLC and want something a half size bigger next time. This is really appealing, especially in the 4 cylinder 50k form.

i have a 2016 AMG GLC 43 that I don't like for it's harsh ride and the infotainment system and I've been thinking about eventually upgrading to a more luxury oriented SUV for my wife, which will be our long distance cruiser as well. I've had X5s, MLs and MDX in the past and I think this checks all the boxes. Only thing is the dealership experience but the value and features might just be enough to win me over.

I came up behind one of these for the first time today my first assumption was a Porsche Cayenne until l looked closer....impressive looking vehicle. This review would put it on my shopping list if l were shopping.

Great video as usual Goose!!

the napkin origami is savagely metaphoric. Great review, if they took a bit more of there resources to weight balance, I think they'd have a case for the competition, its a good looking design.

I'm no engineer, but I don't feel that the use of stamped steel on many of the GV80's suspension parts is due strictly to cost cutting. With more of an off-road mission, I think they were going for more strength and durability, much in the same way that Toyota has stuck with their steel understructure on the Land Cruiser. If I were buying something like this and planned on keeping it for at least ten years, I think I'd prefer the steel.

Hyundai/Kia/Genesis are the kings of cost cutting where 99% of consumers don't know/care and pumping them into where they do, which is why those brands are always so competitive from a feature/price cost ratio. They aren't shitboxes that fall apart mind you, but that is why they seem so much more competitive to the Japanese/German competitors in their respective brackets.

I remember seeing one of these on the street when I was stationed in South Korea last year and I had to do a double take because I had no idea what it was and it’s a unique looking vehicle in a good way.

Hey Mr. Geese, would love if you could incorporate some kind of driving dB ratings to help give a better sense of NVH. Keep up the great work!

I can say that my dad went from a 2013 BMW X5 to a 2016 BMW 750i and he now has the Genesis GV80 v6. He likes the Genesis more than either BMW, partly due to reliability issues with both BMWs. I have also driven all three cars extensively and although the GV80 is down 75hp compared to the 750i it does not feel one bit slower. Genesis really outdid themselves with this vehicle.

Love that you mooned the 360 cam...

great review you were spot on Jack has a bit of a brand magic disease. I like the GV80.

First Goosing of the year baby!

People who wind up getting this vehicle are most definitely educated car shoppers who do a lot of research. A lot of people settle. This brand doesn’t really compromise unless you’re very into the brand name itself which most people don’t even know exists.

Thanks for mentioning Hyundai Motor Groups vertical integration. I only found out about that recently. They make their own steel like you mentioned and are the world's largest shipbuilder so they even save money on the shipping. Little facts like these are why I like your channel.

Love the taste of whoever selects the piano music!

Genesis is having legal issues with creating their own dealers. But I saw a pic of how their dealerships will look like. They look so good!!!

Psychology is always hilarious. People will buy MB, BMW, Audi and put up with the horrific quality and often extremely expensive running costs (except for BMW), yet would never consider this vehicle even though it has better quality, FREE maintenance for five years, FREE concierge service for every service, and so on. But this is the same mentality that will spend $120K on a Tesla Model X even though it was rated one of these most unreliable vehicles sold today.

As someone in the market, the biggest thing I see against the gv80 is the back seat legroom. The q7 and especially the gle seem to be a lot bigger. This is more like the x5.

My first time here, I like the "good cop, Bad cop" approach. I also enjoyed the undercarriage review. Thank you. Thumbs up!

I look forward to your review on the GV70 Sport, my local dealership said he doesnt think it will be in until Christmas. I hope its sooner as I'm really leaning towards buying it.
