The 2023 Genesis GV60 Is a Crazy Quirky EV From the Future 

Dealership: Hey Doug, come review this brand new 60k~ electric car! Doug: *Throws keys across asphalt *

I will ALWAYS commend companies for trying new, weird stuff. Very, very cool.

Very innovative car. One of the most innovative I’ve seen in years from any auto manufacturer. Genesis is absolutely killing it. Love the white interior

I have the passenger seats adjustments controls in my G70 as well and I find it one of the best thing ever. Use it all the time after my kids use the passenger seat to put it back to a more normal position.

Despite all the neat features, that glove compartment tray is something I never knew I needed. Almost like it's actually designed to keep things like insurance paperwork in it.

On the passenger side. That little “speaker” is actually for an air freshener you can place in there. It’s a removable cap :)

The exterior doesn't look as nice as Ionic 5/EV6 but the GV's interior is superb.

Hey Doug, great video! just wanted to say that your video about the CarMax max care you did a while back... was shown during training lol.

Only a matter of time until fingerprint and facial recognition technology hit the car industry. But I am surprised we haven’t seen it sooner. Really cool

Tesla can learn a thing or two on how to make amazing car interiors on their electric cars like Genesis. Hyundai is always stepping up in their game. Epic Review Doug!

I love this thing , kudos to Genesis for making an innovative not so boring EV.

I like the simple home screen. I don't need my map up all the time and it still shows basic info for everyday use.

10:01 the speaker-ish thing is actually a fragrance dispenser. You can put in a scent so your GV60 smells nice inside.

I own 2 EVs, and we use the front trunk regularly when it makes sense to store something we want to be separate from the cabin - food leftovers, running shoes, muddy items, etc. It is surprisingly useful.

I think the infotainment home screen showing minimal information is actually a good thing. I find myself looking at various displays in my car way too often while driving. Less distraction is always good.

The buttons on the passenger side is really good when you’re transporting people with limited movement. You can ease their entry to the car a lot! Or to give room before someone gets in the back seat.

I can just imagine all of the funny faces Doug made as he was registering his face with the system.

10:08 That’s not a speaker. That’s where you put the air fresheners.

Wow!! This is all I have been waiting for this one and also thanks Doug for reviewing and POV test driving in my favorite All-electric crossover SUV from Genesis.

I would use a frunk for two reasons. It would have to be a powered frunk or at least have a latch release on the outside as well as no interior lid plus be deeper than this one. 1. To put groceries so they will not slide all over. 2. To stow the charging cord on road trips when the back is full of stuff.

Honestly, this car is amazing! It reminds me of those cool quirky and fresh looking concept cars from the 2000s. It is odd, but in a good way.

Doug the type of guy to scratch the hell out that key!

Recharging is a part of the EV experience and should be part of EV tests especially since recharging is a task that many manufacturers have yet to conquer. Once recharging becomes a settled art perhaps you can drop this issue.

On that removable cargo floor, where the right side can lift up by itself to access the lower floor, there's a loop on the underside of the cargo floor, which leads me to believe you can flip the removable cargo floor over, and use that small door to access the left side, if you choose. That level of configurability is amazing.

bro the facial recognition is literally one of the most obvious things we still dont have in cars, why havent we asked for that? thats the coolest thing ever

It was like they said, "Let's build the ultimate quirks and features car for Doug". LOL

I drove it last winter :) then in twisty bits a month later, its very fast but really not targeted at people who want to go around corners.. EV6 even in base AWD spec is much more sportily tuned. One thing Doug should have tried out is the augmented reality in the speedo area, if that's available on US spec ones.

Reviews like this, where the scores are really close, really highlight why the longer-form DougScore explanation was great. Seeing just the scores with a five-second summary that addresses practically none of them is fairly disheartening.

It's a fairly good time to be alive ! Granted you get excited over how we have progressed as individuals, there honestly is not many BAD choices around in 2023 , competition is beyond what any individual ever expected and well we all reap the benefits! Enjoy and love life! ❤️

This makes a Tesla look basic af.

This, unironically, is the most beautiful modern EV I have seen

I sat in one of these at the Detroit auto show yesterday. It has the best interior I've ever seen in a car. Everything is absolutely beautiful, and every surface feels absolutely wonderful.

Is nobody gonna talk about how he threw the key across the pavement probably scratching it up lol

Just pointing out something regarding the driving assist systems. My mom has a GV80 (prestige trim if that makes a difference) but it is able to make lane changes, you have to enable it in the settings. I don't know if it's the same in the GV60 though.

Another great review Doug

I can’t believe Doug slid the brand new key across the asphalt. You can see the scratches when he shows the key later. Love you, Doug! 😂😂😂

10:02 I think that speaker looking thing is for the fragrance dispenser so it can perfume the car but maybe it's different on the Performance model? Idk but I do like the key it definitely looks better than the regular black plastic other cars have 😃

Man this thing is extremely nice. If I wasn't frequently doing 225 mile trips between VT and NY this would be high on my next car list, but I feel like I'd want more buffer for winter months. Hyundai/Kia/Genesis is really killing it lately.

imagine the scratches key got when doug slided it on the asphalt

Doug I think you should bring back the breakdown of the Doug Score. It was nice to see you opinions on each category.

Love all the unique tech in this like the face recognition and fingerprint scan. Bravo Hyundai!

The glove tray is great..easier to find things. In Korea the passenger back seat is the boss’s seat, thus the front seat controls. Totally use the Frunk on my 70D.

I love it!! It has the right performance and tech that I am in the market for. Love it. I really like Genisis as a brand. Excellent tour of this car Doug. Salute.💯💯

Hi Doug. Just a small comment about the front space. Most people I know, including myself, who have EV's, use it to have their charging cables easily accessible- so you never have to empty your rear trunk if you need your cables en route (also they will not just slide around in the rear if you have no other items in the rear. So actually a GREAT place to keep your cables. I suspect we are perhaps most used to charge from AC "slow" charging stations in the cities in Europe, where you hardly ever find super chargers, and therefore need you cables- perhaps everyday.

As someone from Europe I find it really odd to hear someone calling a 4.5 m long vehicle "tiny". For me a "tiny" car should have 3.7 m or less in length. Anything over 4 m is "normal" sized.

The infotainment screen. Doug may not like it but I'm sure a lot of people like myself will love the simplicity of it

Kinda crazy how the same platform being reused for 2 other models that i also like a lot, and now this third one is added to that. I like the EV6's back, the Ioniq 5's retro styling, and i like the lighting situation on the GV60 and backside a lot, very cool stuff.

I never watched a car review video without skipping, you are the first one, good job, legit good review

That glove box is genius. Simple but genius.

That gear selector is straight out of the incredibles. We need more stuff like this! I know it probably can break easily, but how fun would it be!

I saw this parked and thought it looked pretty sleek. I like the direction they’re going with designs!

I just drove 7 hours from VA to NJ to buy one of these. Love it so far. The charging time to 80% is quick!

10:01 that ain't a speaker, that's a fragrance diffuser, you can open it to change the smell

I see a lot of possible security flaws waiting to happen lol

Great review much more detailed than any other out there. Question what color was the car you tested ? Thanks .

Regarding the cargo area floor panel that lifts up: My Impala and Chrysler 300 both have that. There's a small cargo area in front of the spare tire well that can be accessed under the floor panel. I keep my jumper cables in there.

20:47 I have to admit, while I would use a front trunk, it would be to only store stuff I need with my car all the time anyways, but hardly ever use. Like those bags that were in the back under the floor. For me that would be good compromise.

The Hyundai ioniq 6 was shown off recently. Can't wait for for Doug's review of that one

Damn that facial recognition door opening took as long as I take in making a cup of tea! quicker to just press the key fob! lol

The look on the owners face after Doug throws the key across the parking lot. Lol

Take note Tesla, this is how you do an interior. The GV60 makes the Model Y's interior look like a Geo Metro. Genesis has been on an absolute roll lately!

doug is the best car reviewer period. always will support ur channel!!

The 3D setup thing is such a good idea to make car infotainment more intuitive

never thought I'd say anything positive about a Hyundai but I *LOVE* the wheel design

Wasn’t certainly expecting the GV60! I just picked up a ‘22 Genesis G70 Sport Prestige with the 3.3T AWD TT V6 last month (literally on the 30th), but this looks amazing! Genesis have really been killing it lately! Can’t wait for the Kona N review :)

0-60 in 3.4 is optimistic. I've seen many reviews doing 3.9. And that "speaker" on the pax door is a scent dispenser.

I met Doug and his family in Prague a few days ago!! Such a cool guy

all sorts of fun when that rotation mechanism for the gear selector inevitably breaks (:

the only time I've ever loaded a car up to the point I could use a front trunk was when I was moving and even then there were plenty of nooks and crannies that could be stuffed had I needed to. I feel like they'll be used more on the EV Pickups

I gotta say Genesis’ recent lineup looks pretty good.

Great review thx

I saw this thing at an autoshow just before the pandemic. I completely forgot about it and surprised to find out it's now an actual product

The GV60's interior is the antithesis of the Model Y. It's functional, intuitive and luxurious. Thank God you don't have to look DOWN at a screen to see your speed. If only Tesla would stop trying to reinvent the wheel...

Genesis is impressing the crap out of me

Doug got some crazzzzy cars chilling in the video vault🤯🤯🤯

Great review, this will most likely be my next purchase. FYI, the "speaker" on the right side isn't actually a speaker. If you twist it to the left, it opens up to reveal a fragrance holder.

The orb / gear selector seems unnecessary and likely to break. If it doesn’t flip over I assume you can’t drive.

Man this car is legitimately quite nice and does a great job in taking the car industry forward imo, esspecially at its price point if it sells for what they say... Really makes you wonder what cars will be like 10 years from now.

@21:05 I actually use my front trunk a lot to put my backpack in which fits perfectly. I’d argue that the market research saying people don’t use the frunk is due to the fact that none of them are power operated. If they were power open and close more people would use them

Hyundai/Genesis have come so far !! Looks like an amazing car !

I really liked this car. Contrary to Doug I think it is really luxurious inside. It easily beats most of other cars in this segment when interior design, quality and materials are considered. Genesis is becoming more and more appealing to me with every new car and I think that after initially offering only sedans (which actually were ok) they are on the right track, cars have distinct and appealing styling, interior is top notch. It all reminds me of the path that Lexus took in the 90's and it seems currently Genesis is on the road to repeat its success. Sadly in Europe, where I live, Genesis is almost non existent and on this basis it actually reminds me more of Infiniti or Acura and the only times I have seen Genesis on the road was the same G90 with South Korean flags that's belonging to Embassy of South Korea in my country.

I got in this model at my dealership and I loved it. Very smooth and great design.

front trunk should be soley for charging cales and manuals etc, leaving the boot for deeper for luggage storage (no silly split floor level)

Technology companies: "Biometric features are convenient and easy to use"; people that has to contend with them: "No, they're not" 😆

Great review (as usual). And THANK YOU for pointing out the fact that frunks are rarely actually used. I've had 3 EVs now and never open the frunk.

Wow I really like this car!! I would own one. Practical enough, lots of cool features that are actually usable, and it looks nice!

That glove box/tray idea is revolutionary 🤯

I personally think this is the first time I’ve seen the whole face/Touch ID on a car has worked. Works in seconds, intuitive, and well made!

Pretty sweet! Hyundai/Kia/Genesis/Ioniq are definitely making exciting new cars, on the cutting edge of technology

I really like it. I don’t like crossovers but this is cool. Styling, tech, interior materials are so fresh.

Doug: likes cars Also Doug: has never used a video game controller in his life

Holy shit that’s the car I saw yesterday! I passed it in highlighter yellow on the highway, thought it was a Porsche from the rear but it wasn’t the Porsche headlights. I was wondering what it was since I hadn’t seen it before, how’s that for timing?

The reflective trim on the interior door card is for night visibility when pulled over on the side of the road. (Shout out to straight pipes for that bit of info).

Actually, on the right side, what you thought was a speaker is a fragrance diffuser. On the left it is used to adjust mirrors, but on the right they wanted symmetry and thus added the diffuser.

I worry if liquids or debris gets into that gear shifter/orb. If it's stuck in orb mode, I wonder how expensive it will be to fix it.

It looks cool, with a lot of interesting little things. I like Hyundai/Kia they're not afraid of innovations. They may be one of the only major brands left after the transition to electric

Kinda love the glove box drawer. Keeps stuff from spilling out when you open it.

The piece on the right hand door is not a speaker, it is used to dispense a fragrance, it twist off to open

The key seems to match the quilting on the seats more than anything else. Very cool!
