2021 Genesis G80 2.5t AWD Prestige review featuring a fully loaded 2.5t AWD G80. I previously owned a base model Genesis G80 so the new 2021 Genesis G80 is a car I've been looking forward to trying. See my 2021 Genesis GV80 Review here: • 2021 Genesis GV80 Revi...
Genesis is unveiling new products at a rapid rate. But don't think for a second these vehicles are subpar or have cut corners. Cars like this new 2021 Genesis G80 and GV80 SUV make it clear that these vehicles are full of painstaking details. I would be curious to hear your thoughts on the new Genesis G80 if you got the opportunity to check one out in person.

@miker1835 3 года назад

Kevin, as always, thank you for your intuitive review. A few questions. How do you feel the turbocharged 4 and turbocharged 6 cylinder versions of this generation compare to the naturally aspirated versions of the V6 and the V8 from the previous generation? Also, how do you feel this generation drives compared to the ES350? Would love to have either some day in the next couple years.

@MeynMotorGroup 3 года назад

Thank you my friend! And I liked the previous NA V6 but the transmission performance was nowhere near as good as the new G80. So the only "issue" with drivetrain I notice now on the new cars is a small delay off the line but excellent after that feels very close to the ZF 8 speeds found in BMW now. Compared to the ES both vehicle are built for cruising and taking it easy so handling isn't the best in either but I will give the edge to the G80 because it is a RWD platform and understeers less than the ES. Surprisingly, I think the previous generation G80 had a slightly better driving dynamic than this new G80, but new G80 rides even softer and is a bit more quieter than the old G80 so really depend on what you're looking for. Both ES and G80 are great luxury cars.

@jerryr3652 3 года назад

I've owned both a 2015 Hyundai Genesis and a 2017 G80 both were the 3.8 normally aspirated V6. My new 2021 Prestige G80 turbocharged 4 is just as potent at the 3.8 in the prior cars EXCEPT, and this is big deal, the engine is very crude when it starts and stops. This tractor engine does not belong in a luxury car. The car shakes and lurches. The worst part is when the auto start and stop is engaged, which is the default setting, the car seems to have three bangs that shake the car from head to tail like a wet dog that just got a bath. The worst part is the dealer service manager is clueless what do do, so he has done nothing. I have calls into Genesis customer service but they seem to be waffling also.

@Kevin-kn2ni Год назад

I rented a 2021 G80 3.5tt to drive home to New Orleans for Mardi Gras. The car is awesome. The power is immense. The fit and finish are with the exception of Bentley or RRoyce is unparalleled! I plan to purchase a 2021 G80 later this year. There isn't anything that looks like it on the road. It garnered attention wherever I was. There is no perfect car. The only negatives are; the trunk is small, premium gas mileage can go as low as 13mpg, if you get high from frequently pressing the right pedal. And the rear seat doesn't fold. But the car is so good that I can live with those short comings. In summary, I strongly advocate this car over any car that is less than 70k.

I want this. And I could have one. But I'm a 52-year-old truck driver. It would seem so out of place because it's just so fancy. I would feel like I need to hide it from everyone I know.

The auto industry is just weird right now.

@MeynMotorGroup 3 года назад

Hmm consider the price of that LS460, see if you can find one CPO at a lexus dealership. If you find one, test drive on the highway and town and see if there is a lot of wind noise coming from the driver side window. If there is you probably have to replace the molding on the window area. For about 35-40k you can find a G90 with a 5.0 V8 and AWD with like 30k miles on it. This will be a newer car like 2017-2018 more features and quiter etc. But keep in mind as of now Lexus has a better dealership experience, see how the Hyundai/Genesis dealer in your area is rated and take both cars on a thorough test drive. I'm sure you will love how both cars drive

I originally really liked this car. Even considered getting one. Watched it from from concept to Korean release to here etc . I've now come to the conclusion that I find the g80 a bit obnoxious looking. The front grill is toooooo much. The back looks frumpy....is that a word? I'm very impressed with interior quality and while we don't get all the tech the Koreans get it is impressive. But I'm not a fan of screens sticking out of the dash no matter how large it is. Bring that screen closer so both occupants can reach it, then get rid of the control dial, and get rid of the dial shifter and put a proper shifter in its place like Audi....now it's perfect. While Genesis likes to think they are competing with top German cars, I don't think they are there quite yet and therefore it's priced too high especially in Canada.

So most rear wheel drive sedans won't allow you to fold the rear seats because there is typically a rigidity brace running through the back seats. On a FWD car like the ES350 lexus that's annoying when you can't fold the seats in that

@TrixAreForRabbits 3 года назад

@@MeynMotorGroup -- That's not true in current generation mid-sized sedans. Plus, the 5-Series and the E-Class have had folding rear seats for decades. Even the ultra-high HP and torque-monster M5 has folding rear seats. Of course, the Lexus GS doesn't -- but look what is happening to that car. I'm POSITIVE the reason why Hyundai didn't do folding rear seats is cost cutting -- because they would have had to use more high strength steel -- and using less keeps the cost down. This also explains why the car weighs so much compared to the competition.

My dad is sixty years old, he’s a boomer, he thinks tech is cool and amazing. Gen X and Millennials are the same way. But, Zoomers grew up immersed in technology, it’s not amazing, we think it’s overdone and once we have the purchasing power its presence will recede. Most boomers think an Apple Watch is cool while people my age (16-22) think it’s too much, they appreciate a real watch.

When are you going to start sponsoring auto products and getting more business bang for your buck? You've built such a trustworthy brand that consumers would follow. As long as you stick to your roots of integrity and transparency, you'd continue to add value to your viewers and lose no respect as a reliable auto consumer report channel.

@MeynMotorGroup 3 года назад

Haha I appreciate that, well lately I've been getting more and more sponsors hitting me up but nothing so far I would pull the trigger on and also, lots of scams going on so hard for me to choose what's legit and what's not. I'm actually not against a shill as long as it's for the betterment of society, we all need products and I certainly like recommending a good product. But brands that I like and products I like are typically mass corporations that won't even bat an eyelid to a roach like me 😂 for instance I would like to work with SunTrust Bank and recommend their lightstream financing service, would even take on a Banana Republic sponsor because I can throw their polos and pants into a washer & dryer and not shrink...but they will never acknowledge me lol

@SucceedbyForce 3 года назад

Dude, have you tried though? Never say never. And you could actively search out smaller brands for product trials. It's worth the effort in my opinion. You have so much potential but I think you don't ask enough. I.e you don't even ask viewers to remember to like the video if they found it interesting or useful.

@johnshyer6287 2 года назад

I like the looks, but carrying on like that seems like they are paying you. I've had a Hyundai since 2008 and I've been able to rely on it every single day. However, they have a long way to go before they are honest contenders for Audi or Mercedes, it's an image thing, and that doesn't just come to it overnight. The place where they really shine is in dependability and cost of ownership, and thankfully they haven't succumbed to those god awful huge tv screens in the front seat like the others have.

Oh yes the motor yea that's what I was mentioning towards the end of the drive the 4 cylinder is fine until you have to rev it out to max RPM so the best and most refined way I found to drive the 4 cylinder is to just ease into the throttle and never floor it to redline
