2022 Genesis G70 | Luxury Sedan Family Review

Thanks to my day job at Kelley Blue Book, I drive and review lots of cars. This new 2022 Genesis G70 is one of them. The Genesis competes with compact luxury sedans like the BMW 3 Series, Audi A4, & Mercedes-Benz C-Class. In this video, we drive the Genesis G70 to review its positives and negatives from a family perspective.

I really do write the music for these video reviews. The songs in this video are…

The G70 is stunning. It really wears the Genesis design language well.

This was fun liking the husband wife format. Matty does the interior reviews with his wife Beth but I prefer this format where the two of you have a conversation about the car while driving.

[jeffmorse]

Nothing beats a sedan for looks, driving dynamics and seating comfort (for the driver). Come from an SUV or CUV and you'll notice. I don't think I'll ever give them up as long as they sell them just to sit up higher.

[JD-eyhw]

Me and my wife's new game is to take a shot of coffee whenever a GoPro fails.

[CapELarry]

I tried to keep it alive! I’m one of the very few people who bought the G70 with a manual. I have no regrets. It’s an awesome daily.

[CarSpot]

The G70 really looks amazing both from the inside and out!

[yourvault]

Love how happy you guys are during the review It’s also so good for a child to hear the parents laugh and have a good time, it will benefit your child in many great ways in the future because it’s such a great environment for her.

I went to a Hyundai showroom to check out (and eventually left leasing) the pocket friendlier Ioniq, but was blown away by the beauty of the fancy Genesis showroom models. Exquisite sculpture, maybe one day I'll splurge and drive one of these beauties off the lot. I think if you see a G70 in person you'll really appreciate how gorgeous it is.

I am seriously considering buying one of these as they are seriously impressive for the money. Considering a slightly faster M340i is $15, 000 more than the 46k mid range 3.3t rwd I want! That's a lot of money to be put to use, since the germans have gotten seriously over priced for marginally better performance and lackluster resale. Not to mention the long term repair's and durability, and standard maintenance cost at the dealer of the germans are much higher. Plus the warranty of 10 year/100k miles, Genesis is killing it.

[johnmahler]

I think this is one of the best looking cars you can buy. That grill that Genesis is putting on all of their vehicles is amazing!

[citibear]

When I saw the rear seat leg-and-head room, I thought, nah, this isn't for me. But then I thought about how often I have rear seat passengers (hardly ever), so overall, I think this is a really nice car! Bolstie the Bolster, huh? Well, as long as he doesn't speak (and scares the crap out of me while driving alone) then I am fine. He's sort of cute anyway.
Many nice design elements on this car, but what really caught my attention was the awesome metal window trim piece at the rear window/C pillar (9:57)
As always, a great, fun, family car review! 🚗🚗🚗🚗🚗 <<< '5 car' review! 😀✋

[juansequeirabaquero]

What a joyful review you guys. This is basically what a review for ever day drivers should be.

[alexandergoldman]

Best looking luxury sports sedan on the road IMO...includes 3 series and C-Class. Absolute stunner..

[sultanniazi]

What a great channel. Beautiful family. So nice to see Micah.

[purplelexus]

Great video! I have the same color G70 with a light gray interior. It's a fun car to drive. 🙂

[levigato]

I can’t afford my G70 on my Walmart salary alone, I have to use it for my Lift and Grub Hub jobs also.

[DriveOnReviews]

Great review and the GoPro is over heating because the brightness is high and it’s making the camera hot . Maybe turning down the brightness to 30-50% and that should help because I noticed my battery last longer and the camera doesn’t get that hot.

[swanblake]

So stunning. Very elegant looking inside and out. I love that Genesis makes proper rwd cars. Wished Genesis would have given it the GV70 powertrains as the G70's 2.0T engine is a dog. Really my only gripe. Hope they make a Sportier version to compete against the M340i or M3. In the 3.3TT trim, this would get my money when shopping given its looks, sporty driving, and generous equipment levels.

[LegendsPizzaCo]

Great review and video. Love the energy between you and the family it was fun to watch

[jissanhuq]

Imagine you're driving your Volvo and you come home to watch your favorite motoring family on YouTube only to hear this. lol.
