Genesis GV80 towing

Before you buy a GV80 towing is not available at this time. I purchased one on April 6th, I purchased the towing package. The dealer was able to get the hitch but the harness is not available. Genesis has told me there is no ETA for the harness. It's been a month I spent $70K for a tow vehicle that cant tow. The dealer is trying to help. Genesis has done nothing!!! Buyer beware Genesis customer service is useless, very disappointed may need to take legal action.

Lots of tinker toy bells and whistles. Good ride.

Gives a nice ride. Controls are frustratingly. Time, weather temp, compass, blue tooth all are very difficult while driving. The screen is big but info limited and dangerous to access while driving. One must stop and pullover to get what’s readily available on other vehicles. Blue tooth “ I do not understand” for the simplest request. Map is slow and gives lines one must choose, while driving. Gas mileage is very low. Bentley has mangy tell tale features in the design, as Bentley people are now employed. I actually mistook a Bentley, in the same color at first as the Genesis. It is roomy, and quick get up and go. However, it automatically slows down which can’t be bypassed, which potentially could cause an accident. Also, it has a light on the dash sayin one of the tires, it is not specific, is low, causing one to have to check ALL tires for pressure. It is inaccurate. Light can suddenly go off like it went on. 80.000 to Korea one would expect more.

Our GV80 3.5 Liter AWD 3.5T Prestige has been without problems/defects for our first 30 days of ownership. We have put a combo of city and highway miles with no issues and have had lots of driving pleasure. Highly recommend the GENSIS; we traded in a 2017 G-90 that was superb during the 4.5 years we had it.

I went for a test ride after seeing good Deto tic reviews. Car overall looks good and also spacious from inside.features are there but if you compare with marcedes the difference in quality is evident. Driving experience is not even close to driving a glb or glc ,leave aside gle. Now in terms of pricing :genesis is not offering any discount and want to sell their car on msrp and that’s the reason not many are buying it .go for a glc with similar feature with lesser price or pay a bit more and opt for gle. Also their sales person do not know much about genesis features and benefits. People in their right mind will not pay such high price without the proper driving and purchasing experience

Vault like cabin, high end interior materials, the entire vehicle so smooth down to the thud when closing the doors.
