8:30 You can write letters in that middle circle.
No thanks. I rather spend $50k-$60k on a low mileage certified pre-owned 2017/2018 Mercedes S550.
Genesis does what Nintendon't
If someone buys this car they were not in the market for an S-class, 7 series, or A8 to begin with
*Genesis has 3 sedans* Doug: they have too many sedans! 😡 🤦🏾♂️

looks like a piece of crap
proud owner of a 2020 Genesis G70 elite in white.
this is something that i see in whatch dogs, for sure
This is a confusing review. You spoke so highly of this unit like it is almost perfect but yet you graded this unit at 61%. I think you need to take a page out of Steve Hammes note book in regard to prudently grading a vehicle collectively and accurately. Always remember that the listener or the reader is using this information to help make an inform decision in purchasing their next vehicle. The information that you are disseminating has to be clear, precise and informative.
I want an eight cylinder turbot.
Genesis finally has its own identity, and it looks great.
2021 Genesis G80 looks and feels sporty and Luxury!.
The car moves on it's own; what bullshit.
How is that bullshit

When I was very young I was involved in an accident and had to spend several weeks in hospital. The Rockford Files was popular on TV at the time and Dad and I both liked Jim Rockford's 1974 Pontiac Firebird. One day after finishing work, Dad visited me in hospital and brought me a Matchbox diecast model of a Firebird but in a sort of metallic turquoise colour, just the same colour as this car here. It meant the world to me. 👍
Looks like a Chinese no-name Brand
Rainy day is great! Now take a listen to this random guy pissing in a pond.
I'm korean and this car is a totally shit. just buy bmw or mercedes..
Many people say I am Korean and say this car is shit but most of them are lying so no body will really listen to you even if you area telling the truth
This is a luxury car I will not settle for just any rain I demand a golden shower!!
Please stop saying "ridges on the outside" It's called knurling, and those things are simply knurled.
I guess making a comment that partially alludes to the inability of Americans to drive properly and excoriates them for setting a trend in gas-guzzling, bulky, obnoxiously-inconsiderate vehicles makes you a candidate for deletion on Doug Demero's page. Strange. The comment was relevant to the sentiments made in your video that suggest that investments made in cars are inadvisable and are better suited in SUVs. Again, this is a flawed American phenomenon and way of thinking - aerodynamicism and compactness in sedans embody the future direction of vehicles. Not bulk and senseless obnoxiousness. There's no Formula SUV or SUV and Driver. Cars have, and will always, epitomize true automobile enthusiasm.
so nobodys talking about his stance
I love inside out!!!!
Pure copy of a Bentley, espacially the grill.
If the "P" on the gear selector wasn't there, then I would mistake it for a swivel wheel for the infotainment screen.
Nashville Predators' Guy's Mother Bought Her Car
Beautiful car, excellent assessment Doug.
Am I the only one who feels that a 3d screen will be nauseating?
I sisnt think it was releasing for another 6 months
Compare this with the 1 million dollar lagonda taraf 😂😂😂 who would buy that overpriced piece of crap?
Would you like some car with your grill?
I'm not sure if they have over invested in sedans, they have 3. BMW and Audi has at least double that, Mercedes has like 8. Then all the variants of each including wagons. It is the market they are going after and people are moving from those brands due to them falling apart if you own them, not lease them. SUV/Crossovers are not that great, they don't drive particularly well. OK, they drive good for what they are or compared to what they were but, there is a always a bit of "its ok" in every SUV/Crossover review. I don't like how they drive or handle and so I always pick a car. If I want to load up more stuff, I bought a truck.
@Adil Sagadiyev So 3 Sedans. Sedans are still more abundant in Korea, the SUV thing is getting more popular there of course but, they brought over those Genesis sedans here. So it isn't really an over investment and was probably easier bringing what they already had over here than to design all new for the time. Genesis now has a GV80, soon a GV70, and a sport coupe, and 2 crossovers are planned. For a new small spin off I think they are doing pretty well. Have to make money before you can spend it.
@CHUDHUCKER no I mean in total they have 4 models so 75% of their line up is sedan which is much more than any other brand in terms of percentage
@Adil Sagadiyev Oh, they do, which ones are they, I must have missed that, can you list them please? Maybe it is different in Canada where I am from?
They have 4 models total so yes they have
Genesis watches Doug's videos
God, this "TTTHHIIISS" was good today, good job.

Doug is the kinda guy to pass people on the right on the highway. Shameful.
Why couldn't you show us the infotainment center
I don’t like the steering wheel shape.
can you dougreview the european cars that can't be found in the US and south american Fiat and Vw models that you can find in mexico or brazil ? It would be awesome !
You can't compete with a Benz when you look like an Impala
Yes you can when you look like a Bentley
So Mercedes copies the former G80's rear light design on their new S-class. That's why the S-class is now ugly as xxxx.
Good old "sounds of nature" my K900 has that as well 🤣🤣
The suv version looks amazing
That center of the circle thing with arrows on it, you can actually write things down like an ipad in case you need to find a place from navigator.
The rainy day sound makes me wanna pee
I'd take this over the Aston Martin Lagonda.
Make a video of the G70!
I am currently driving a 2020 G70 (loaner whilst they work on my Genesis) and frankly don’t like it much. Yes, it is super fast and handles well. But, I much prefer my Genesis sedan (G80). So, if Hyundai decides to drop a car I hope it is the 70. The G70 is smaller and rear seats attest to that? It looks good but not as stately as the G80. It rides ok but not as well as the G80. It sells for less than the G80 but not much less.
I drive a 2016 Genesis which I rebadged a G80 - because. Also I drive a 2020 Santa Fe Limited 2.0T. The 2020 had dash lane view cameras and a tweak or two above my Genesis. However my Genesis is a luxury ride in every way. I intend to buy a 2020 G80 Ultimate in 2023 when it is selling at about half price. Living as I do in the very wealthy Palm Beach area I expect any previously owned car to be well cared for and will go for about 20+ K miles on one. My Genesis has 50K miles and remains a flawless vehicle so far.
Doug: Having the same powertrain for 3 different models is not gonna work well! VW, who uses the same powertrain for Lamborghini, Porsche, Bentley, and Audi SUVs: I will pretend I didn't hear that.
He is better than genesis g90?
Backseats with enough head room? How bout back seats with room for head?
Omg they tried so hard to copy mercedes
Excuse me how this looks nothing like a Mercedes in and out
And to think this is just half of Korea, can only imagine how cool this car'd be if North Koreans did their share too, probably twice as good.
This car look a like it piece of shit, the inside is ugly, go buy a 1 year old used Mercedes for the same price😂😂😂
Lmao another badge snob what a surprise, if this had a Mercedes badge you would be in love with it
If I lived in a place with a tight parking situation like that, I wouldn’t drive a $70,000 car unless all others using the lot have cars of greater than or equal value.
Well you wouldn’t live in such a tight place if you can afford this
I hate the engine sound being played through the speaker, just make a good exhaust
Those are LITERALLY the EXACTZ SAME STOCK SOUNDS AS THE 2020 SONATA AND YOU SAID IT WAS LAME
Love how a lot of these features and interior design are all in the hyundai sonata but he wasn't impressed.
This nice car is finally in the USA
If your kid takes the keys and “holds it” it would start. Once he relies that there are back and forward buttons then, hopefully it has sensors that can stop it from hitting a curb or something. If there was a app makes sense but that is really really dumb for a car maker to make it that easily accessible.
Dude you forgot one feture on the circle intertatemante screen controler ting
Looks really dated already, sure it’s ok but for the money and the amount they lose secondhand I’ll stick to the Mercs.
How does it looks dated? People like you only hate it because it isn’t a cool brand like mercedes
Anyone notice skid marks? Doug be doing donuts low key lmao
My wife drives a 2015 Genesis Htrac that we bought new. It still looks spectacular and has never been in the shop besides scheduled maintainence and 2 windshields due to bad cracks caused by rock chips. It is full of great tech and is very luxurious even after five years. It is not the funnest car to drive but it is very nimble for its massive weight. They don’t have great resale value so it is a car to buy and run into the ground.
for more than a year, the Peugeot 2008 has been installed in 3D panel
the rainy sound audio thing sounds more like a broken faucet leaking in your toilet than a rain drop
Wow, it is a really nice and good car packed with useful technologies. Congratulations to the South Koreans!
14:07 - Doug was 6" 1inch here at the time... After the review he went back to 6" 2/3/4 inches simultaneously...
hyundai needs to make a cool sports sedan that rivals an s4 or m3 and they'll really be on the map
I actually like the styling of the flagship G90, but it lacks the digital gauge. Genesis needs to make sure their flagship sedan has all the best technology.
Well it is 4 years old
The buttons above the air con control are from the last gen S class lol
Nice car but Peugeot already have 3d monitors! They was first))
I am not old and I love sedan more than a SUV which I feel like for old people or family guy
You still haven’t done a bulletproof car?
Look at the competing Mercedes and compare the 2 designs 😂
So e class? Ya no this destroys the Mercedes in design especially the exterior
Although it's a nice car I cannot shake this idea from my head that it appeals to people living on credit cards, way above their means...
If you can’t get out easily than car next to you also is very close so you will end up with damage doors all the time, useless feature:)
Korean's have come a LOOOOOOOONG way in automaking, this is damn fine car!...
8:30 you can also write in this circle
Honestly, Genesis should give us another sports coupe.
They were supposed to come this year but covid messed their schedule up
This car is named as the first book of the Old Testament in the Bible, Genesis)
wow awesome sedan. i really like it!
@Doug DeMuro The center (white area) on the infotainment control is also an area where you can you use your finger tip or instrument to write/spell out letters for music/navigation/contact selection. It has handwriting recognition and is very useful.
That's a good looking car!
That color and rims . . . Make that car look old.
The rain one sounds like a toilet filling up after.a flush
Zzzzzzis is ... 😁 on every video; funny Doug; Love your reviews man; 👍
Good
I have a genesis 2015 sedan. Looks like the old g80 and i love it!
here
22:38 I think they will release a sport tuned version
Due to the “Tesla Effect” this segment of the automobile market is no longer relevant. But in 3 years this vehicle will become an incredible bargain at 23k
Fire is a sound of nature. Fireplaces are man made but they pretty much sound like a bonfire which is outdoors.
I want to tie a little leash around the sideview mirror and take it on a walk around the parking lot while controlling it with that remote.
Doug, the trunk, the hinge hooks could impair luggage capacity, rather than struts. You understand.
8:00 The circle is used for handwriting input
Rainy day sounded more like pissy urinal
