Under the hood is a 3.5L twin-turbo V6 paired with an electric supercharger and mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. Is the 2025 GV80 Coupe a BETTER new luxury sport SUV than a BMW X6?

Hyundai has really come a long way in the past few decades, they have really closed the gap in quality vs. European manufacturers. Great review as always J&L!
This is a Hyundai brand?
@@reese85It’s Hyundai’s luxury department. Like Honda/Acura and Toyota/Lexus.
@goldiilockzz7556 I never knew that, thanks
Thanks for letting us bring it to you!
quality? Koreans have surpassed europeans in quality.
My 2021 AMG 63 is being lemon lawed. Went to the dealership to look at this new Coupe and it's almost identical to the Mercedes. The interior and the stitching and the headliner matches identical to the German vehicle . I will be getting one
Genesis...Well-freakin'-done.
Those orange seatbelts with the navy interior just pops. It's so nice!
It is so gorgeous
That history lesson about the Bering Straits was most riveting ! "Have car will travel," thanks for traveling the world over to bring the most compressive, entertaining reviews!
That really means something much!
Joe, Genesis hit this one out of the park. You can take the family on a trip and enjoy the drive at the same time.
I love the way you think Suzanne
The "VHS Tape" joke was funny as heck!!! OMG....
Glad this is finally hitting dealerships. I'll be getting one by the end of this year!!
congrats!
Genesis is bonkers sexy. Those wheels really work well & that finish is slick & subtle. Excellent review!
Thanks Adam for letting me share it with you
One of the best reviews/cars I've seen. Great job Guys! Kudos to Lori!
They need to make midnight edition.
It's even uniquely beautiful when you raise the hood. Agree totally with you about the styling.
Joe I'm definitely loving the color and body lines. No rear wiper love it. Makes that rear really pop with a clean no clutter look.😊
You hit the nail on the head!
Best looking coupe SUV ever
Genesis is killing the game with their interiors, that infotainment system, seats and the carbon fiber is fire
My lord Genesis is changing the game this is literally perfect in every regard the price is amazing the performance is amazing the designs are practical and useable without being overboard this is quite literally the next car I’m buying if not this the 3.3L G70 your killing it with these reviews Joe Keep it up ,You’ve sold me !
As someone who’s buying one …price is really NOT amazing.
@@AJ-yf4ksI agree. $87k is most certainly not amazing.
Finally someone has the history class right! Good job Joe!
Like somebody’s needing Doug I love Raiti ride ur my favorite when it comes to car reviews ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for being so supportive!
Thank you for the video! 👍🎥
You are so very welcome!
You're the man! I've been waiting for a U.S. review with the supercharger and you're the first to come out with it. I have a matte grey on order and your review confirms I've made the right choice. Keep up the great work!
I am so glad that I can be the one to bring it to you! Thank
You for your kind words
Just like Mcdonald..."mhmmm, I'm loving it" ty for the review🙏🏼
Man I love what you did yhere
No wireless CarPlay (not at launch) , only one massage seat for driver only , no skyline moonroof …and for the price of a BMW, Benz or Audi is a tough pill 💊 to swallow
Option any of those to have what this has, you'll pay $10-20k more. Plus, those don't have ventilated rear seats or a digital rear view mirror.
hyundai / kia gives buyers a bunch of quirks and features so they can buy it.
they've come a LONG way since their start.. but any of the brands mentioned above?..imo.. no.. but they close..should lose those turn signals/markers on the side..thats my only real zonk..
Yeah, they clipped out a couple of things for the U.S. market. That is just pure cost savings. But this GV80 coupe still is competitive on all fronts besides fuel economy. The Europeans are faster too. Carplay is supposed to be "future over air" update.
@@jeffs6090 X3M Comp I just bought is indeed missing ventilated rear seats and has a regular rear view mirror but has over 500hp and will shame this in the handling dept. I guess if you want a mirror and a cool butt in the rear, get this. Oh and it was cheaper than this after negotiation.
Keep up the wonderful work team Raiti. Very nice review.
We sure will Chris!
Great review…way nicer than the BMW and MB. Kudos to Lori for keeping the camera steady through the humor😁
She is the best ever!
Love it! Love the blue interior. Lori ! 👍👍
Lori is the best on the biz for sure Tom
Good history lesson. Thanks, Mr. Raiti for the history lesson, and thanks for the great review of the Genesis GV 80 up there in Minnesota.
You are so very welcome! I love to bring it all to you Mickey!
I have the 2023 GV70 and I'm in love with it. Awesome car. This GV80 Coupe is so stunning. Can't wait to see it in person. Great review, as always!
Welcome to Minnesota! Great review as always, Joe. I hope you enjoyed your visit!
I’m in Minnesota too Joe for a vacation 😂😂😂
Oh wow! That’s such a small world!
Genesis lighting is BOLD
You better believe it
I love having ambient lighting coming out of my wazoo. Now that is living!
😂
My pushrod V6 gets 31 mpgs on the highway, so I was surprised this engine only gets about 22.
I can understand how you feel
Juicy Lucy's all the way...Shout out Lori.🎉.
Lori is the bomb 💣
Love your car video
You are the man
@@RaitisRides Welcome anytime
The interior of the GV80 def looks fancier but I still like the X5/X6 more, can’t go wrong with any
I want the X5 M550i so bad, but too expensive. I might settle for certified one
@@kromahj secondhand X5 M50i could be a great choice, go for it
very nice vehicle. Looks fun to drive. I enjoyed the geography lesson.
Thanks Joe, gv80 looks very very luxurious and sporty. Wondering how you feeling driving gv80 0-100 5 seconds vs less than 2 seconds monster you own? 😂
I have one on order! Been waiting for this
You are going to love it
@@RaitisRides Thank you for all the reviews! Always helps with making key decisions 🎉
Love the creakkalattes 🤣🤣🤣 25:03
LOL Thanks for letting me share the laughs with you!
I like this driving camera view wayyy better than the old high ceiling! Good review! Looks like they are still taking people customers from them with this new joint!!
Thanks for the great feedback!
I love the way you do your review brother
The front grille looks to have a few styling cues of last gen Mercedes cls (2015-2018)
The exhaust sounds so anemic. No grunt or rumble to it.
For a car that has over 400Hp , the 0-60 time is still only close to 5secs. The culprit is really the weight of the vehicle.
When you described the drive system, you mentioned it’s an AWD system , and then you said its rear-wheel drive based… I assume you meant its rear wheel drive biased.
For a price of USD90K, I think it would a hard sell for me, I would rather put in the extra 5-10K and the German counterpart.
Honestly, the German competitors at that price point 0-60 are sub 3.5. Genesis did a good job but not good enough for that price point.
Great input Anthony
@@dizzzzy001it is interesting how it turned out.
I am sure they will introduce a more powerful engine with the GV80 Coupe Magma. Yes, that's a mouthful, but this car is not fully representative of Genesis' capabilities!
Always thought a coupe was a 2 door.but has a nice stance.
I'm waiting for you to just go flying off into the lake!...LOL
This is a fake Ashton Martin, even the logo they try to copy.
A twin e charged engine sounds like a great combo to make ur engine explode
Fell in love w this when I saw it at the Car Show at Jacob Javits Center. One day, this will be in my stable.
I was really looking forward, Concept!? Would have taken my money.
I know how you feel!
19:19
Raiti knows my most embarrassing childhood memory, it was a traumatic event that was filmed on VHS.
I really like this car!
Arguably one of the best looking 2 row SUVs. The sport prototype was stunning.
*ABSOLUTELY!!! .. THE CONCEPT MAGMA GV80 COUPE WOULD PUT THE HEAT ON EVEN THE LAMBORGHINI URUS!*
Yes of course Joe & I want this vehicle badly.
Trust me I know how you feel
I was waiting on your review of this beauty!!
You shot your video a few blocks from my house nice!
The only issue I have with this SUV is that I wish the infotainment system was restructured with the screen is not on top of the dashboard. It’s integrated below in the screen was like 12 to 14 inches basically like Lexus other than that great SUV it’s like a budget friendly Bentley Bentayga
Amazing review Joe.
Hands down the best grill….flava fav approves!!!
I just got sold on a 2024 sport prestige g80 for a killer deal, almost identical features (sans usb-c ports 😔) but im over the moon trading up from a 2021 sonata n-line. Hyundai/genesis is killing it with their platforms, a tech-lover's dream car!
Gotta give them credit for the attention to detail with the design. It certainly is an exceptional looking vehicle.
You are so very right about that brother
Thank you so much Joe! I just got the E Supercharged coupe and didn't know about the extra storage. Thank you!
I have this gut feeling that genesis is saving up big for the magma release of these vehicles …. ( where the carbon fiber , exhaust note and possibly power … will be given some steroids ) and we will see a true marriage of luxury and performance coming from this brand
I actually like how Genesis is marketing the GV80 Coupe as the legitimately sportier version of the regular GV80 SUV. The regular GV80 is meant to be more luxurious/smoother due to all the shiny trim pieces whereas the GV80 Coupe can distinguish itself as a different vehicle because it's actually made with some performance in mind since you can get it with the electric supercharger for a total of 409 horsepower, unlike the regular GV80 where it's not an option. There are also other performance features such as a Sport+ drive mode, sportier suspension, and better brakes, not to mention there's the GV80 Magma Coupe that's on the horizon which will hopefully have more performance potential.
The X6 and GLE Coupe only exist because they visually look sportier than their non-coupe counterparts, the X5 and GLE SUV, but other than looking different, they're the exact same vehicles. There's nothing else that distinguishes the X6 and GLE Coupe that makes it more performance-oriented than the X5 and normal GLE.
I really appreciate that fantastic commentary
This is clean
90k for a Genesis, I just can’t get there esp since there are really no Genesis service depts - 90k to go to a Hyundai dealer for service? I’d look at a one year old X5 M50i for that price.
Don't know where you stay, but all the Genesis dealers have been consolidated into area "GENESIS"ONLY, specific dealerships here in Arkansas. All the old Hyundai dealers are no longer allowed to sell Genesis. I have a G80 sedan, and went to the new dealership for maintenance and the attention and service of the personnel was most impressive along with the most premium accommodations. 💯
@@Stew5166not in Massachusetts. Still decrepit Hyundai dealers and very few who service Genesis. They are way behind on this issue and it’s hurting them.
I get the feeling Joe that Genesis’ design ethos corresponds to what you like
It’s looking good for sure
Don't hate on the fake vent on rear bumper. You pointed at the seats and said you liked it because it was the shape of the front grill.
You know you like it.
Welcome to MN! ❤
Thank you so much! Lori & I can’t wait to come back!
Love ❤️ this GV80 great review…..Half the price of the BMW x6m comp.
now we need the G80 coupe
Joe I don’t see the massaging seat on the passenger side
Hopefully you can do a review on a 2025 BMW 240xi coupe soon.
Stay tuned, because I will be bringing it.
@@RaitisRides Thanks
87k. Wow
X6 is like 100k😂😂
Everything is so pricey
@@kromahjyou are so very right about that!
Thanks for the history lesson. I'm loving the GV80 COUPE 👍
Gorgeous interior design!! No cheap plastic gloss!, like Mercedes,BMW Audi!!
You are so very right Angel
And the wood grain has a European luxury look like LV Louis Vuitton and or Goyard Print
About $10K more and you're in a 2025 X5 M60i, which in my humble opinion, is twice the vehicle! ;) Awesome review, per usual!
According to the Alex on Autos channel, this vehicle, although starting prices are higher than the BMW and Mercedes variants, this has way more content, and when the others are so equipped will cost much more. Also, he said that most buyers in this segment will be lease buyers and this GV80 Coupe will lease for less than the other offerings, which should make this a compelling option to consider. If this $87K version can be leased for ..say $5K down and $600/mo .. I will be getting one very soon!
@@Stew5166 with BMW you just need your phone, no fob. Walk up to the car it unlocks when you get close. Jump in and start it up. Also hands free lane keep. Best thing ever on long trips. If Genesis had those two things and 200 more HP I’d be sold!
@@vette4life518 ... I'm not sure what you are basing your info on, but my '21 Genesis G80 sedan has BOTH of those features you just outlined, so I'm quite sure the '25 GV80 coupe does also.
@@Stew5166 dealership said I’d have to take my phone out of my pocket and place it on the door handle to unlock. Then I’d have to place it in the charger to start it. What am I missing here?
The lighting on the side between the door mirrors and front wheel arches is a bit much. Otherwise it's a good looking car.
Thanks for your honest opinion David
Genesis designs are really starting to grow on me. This car looks really nice
That exhaust sounds real cute.
I'm sure that was the target of the engineering team: Cute, real cute.
@@cbotten106 well I guarantee it wasn’t ferocious, and mean.
The ultramarine blue is not exclusive to the GV80 coupe. I had it in my 2023 GV70 Sport Prestige. The orange contrast stitching is new, however.
does it have automatic closing doors when u hit the break pedal?
No soft close only.standard
It only has soft-closing doors. If you want the feature that you are mentioning, you will need to opt for the Genesis G90.
Raiti you and I are both hoping for that performance coupe
I am still trying to figure out what watch you are wearing...
I dont know, that interior just doesnt look up to par with the luxury competition
Maybe once you see it in person you will like it more.
Heck the wood grain alone looks like European haute couture LV Louis Vuitton or Goyard print.
Joe and Lori and Steve keep up the good work real true and I love the video 👍
I see a bunch of GV80 Coupe reviews dropped over the past two days. But Joe was the first and in my opinion the most detailed and factual review. I have one of these on order, same color in and out. But apparently I can get the Bering Blue with the Vanilla and Smoky Green interior instead. It is going to be a hard decision.
May I ask where you found this color/combo?
@@AJ-yf4ks Genesis offers 4 interior colours with Bering Blue. Vanilla and Smoky Green is one of them.
@@dansmith3592 perhaps I was wrong but Their website only shows 2 interior choices with Bering blue
Mono black with grey piping
Ultramarine blue with orange piping. This is in the usa.
I like Genesis design, but I am zonking all of the gloss black capacitive controls in the center stack. That is finger print city and capacitive buttons are not as easy to use while driving as standard buttons.
Joe your awesome! Love watching your videos and comments! Did not think I was interested in a coupe… definitely am now!
I’m not a big fan of the screens. Not because they are screens but feel like they could have made them curved or extended the dash over the screen to make it flow better. Otherwise looks great.
IT IS JUST STUNNING!! IT LOOKS LIKE IT FLYING JUST SITTING, SPORTY PLUS, AND THE LUXURY. HUNDEE HAS HURT ME A BIT RAISING PRICES.
I dont dislike it... I generally love Genesis but man I feel like there are better options at 87k. There are certainly options that do everything shown here, but for cheaper.
Thanks for your thoughts on this one!
Pretty cool door panels.
Thoughtfully designed. Joe, I know Minnesota didn't build those roads for you to have fun on. So different from the German cars but definitely in the ball game.
Great input Alan! Thanks for taking the drive with me!
Santa 🤶 🧑🎄 all I want for Christmas 🎄 ❤ I'm in love ❤
That sounds so good!!!
Genesis needs hybrid power trains, or at the very least a mild hybrid. Only the top end G90 has one.
It will be interesting to see how it all pans out
Dang. $90K?? What are you people doing for a living? I gotta get in on that good life.
Everything is getting pricey for sure!
That is a good lookin' car! Nice video Joe.
What A Very Nice Sports SUV👍🏻👌🏻🏁🚙💨!!!
I'm very impressed with Genesis.
Not bad looking but pair it against the base BMW X6 40i spec'd similarly and there is no comparison. Spend a couple grand more with the base X6 you get better mileage and performance.
Dead drop gorgeous!
