1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,799
that's right we've got the Genesis gv60 and this car is fantastic not as

2
00:00:04,740 --> 00:00:09,360
fantastic the look to comment on it we

3
00:00:07,799 --> 00:00:14,460
have the owner of a successful fashion business an online personality Linus

4
00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:16,020
Sebastian I don't think it's that bad I

5
00:00:14,460 --> 00:00:20,939
don't know it has kind of like these cool lines on the you know along the top

6
00:00:18,539 --> 00:00:25,380
of the Windows I think the wheels are cool I mean the grill is probably

7
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:28,859
unnecessary it is an electric car but you know it's like

8
00:00:27,060 --> 00:00:34,020
I think the headlights are pretty cool one in all seriousness though in a

9
00:00:31,380 --> 00:00:37,860
vacuum I think the gv60 is a pretty good looking car but unfortunately it is not

10
00:00:36,059 --> 00:00:43,079
in a vacuum this is the same platform as the ionic 5 one of just the best looking

11
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:48,719
EVS on the market and genesis's whole line looks fantastic in my opinion and

12
00:00:46,500 --> 00:00:53,579
this one just kind of Falls flat compared to them like this line why does

13
00:00:51,539 --> 00:00:58,379
it go to there and then this way and like maybe you like it moving around to

14
00:00:56,460 --> 00:01:03,059
the side we have one of the worst things on this car Genesis you are not trying

15
00:01:01,260 --> 00:01:08,580
to get on the cover of a sex spec magazine in 2002. you do not need 21

16
00:01:06,299 --> 00:01:11,880
inch rims on this now In fairness these do look pretty good they come with the

17
00:01:09,960 --> 00:01:17,340
performance model but it just kind of makes the whole ride sort of

18
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:21,360
yeah like there's so much harshness from the road that could just have been

19
00:01:18,479 --> 00:01:24,420
avoided by having 19s on it and honestly the suspension in this is not good

20
00:01:23,159 --> 00:01:28,680
enough where you're going to want the trade-off over here we have one of the

21
00:01:26,759 --> 00:01:33,659
string strangest things about this car this is a facial scanner so you can walk

22
00:01:31,320 --> 00:01:37,140
up to your car facial scans you unlocks it get in then there's fingerprint

23
00:01:34,979 --> 00:01:42,540
readers on the inside that allow you to just Boop go away drive away without any

24
00:01:40,439 --> 00:01:46,020
keys at all it's very cool and unfortunately I wasn't able to test it

25
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:51,240
out because it was set up for some other journalist the trunk is a bit of a sore spot it

26
00:01:50,100 --> 00:01:55,619
does have this thing where you stand back here for three seconds and it opens

27
00:01:53,159 --> 00:01:58,860
but uh as you can see right now it doesn't always work also reaching down

28
00:01:57,540 --> 00:02:03,240
here to get this it's not too bad but it just doesn't

29
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:07,439
work great the worst part though up along here water collects while it's

30
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:11,520
raining and it creates like a little waterfall it doesn't fall into the trunk

31
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:16,140
but you have to go through it to put your stuff in also while the trunk

32
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:21,000
itself is large enough this is probably the worst cargo cover that I've ever

33
00:02:18,420 --> 00:02:25,260
seen like it just you have to do that if you want to use it instead of like

34
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:31,140
attaching to the lift gate and it's just I don't know kind of janky at least you

35
00:02:27,780 --> 00:02:35,599
are able to easily put down the seats uh

36
00:02:31,140 --> 00:02:35,599
I haven't actually tried it yet there's

37
00:02:37,980 --> 00:02:43,980
oh there it is you can't do it from the

38
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:49,800
Trump that sucks one nice thing about back here though big old spoiler love it

39
00:02:46,860 --> 00:02:56,099
now here's the charging port this thing is good for 350 kilowatts of fast

40
00:02:52,620 --> 00:02:57,900
charging that is freaking rapid now 77.4

41
00:02:56,099 --> 00:03:03,599
kilowatt hour battery which is good for just under 400 kilometers of range I

42
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:07,560
think though that's more than enough for most of your daily stuff

43
00:03:05,700 --> 00:03:11,459
one thing that's been the case in a lot of the cars that we've had lately is

44
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:16,019
white interiors and I do not get it please just buy a black interior this

45
00:03:13,860 --> 00:03:21,420
thing was cleaned this week like proper detailed it is filthy in there I have no

46
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:24,620
clue who can keep this clean but it is not me that's for sure

47
00:03:24,659 --> 00:03:29,599
I'm trying guys it's not possible oh gross

48
00:03:29,700 --> 00:03:35,700
hopping into the back seat these are extremely comfortable there's plenty of

49
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:39,659
leg room and if there isn't you can move the passenger seat forward and back

50
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:43,319
there's enough Headroom there's like a little area where there's enough you go

51
00:03:41,580 --> 00:03:48,120
back you hit it you go forward you'll hit it a little bit anyway just stay

52
00:03:45,239 --> 00:03:53,280
here you'll be fine these seats are very comfortable they have heating you also

53
00:03:50,099 --> 00:03:55,560
have charging heaps of storage and a

54
00:03:53,280 --> 00:04:00,840
nice little armrest oh one thing we have to take points off though manual peasant

55
00:03:58,019 --> 00:04:06,560
blockers nothing spoils a fancy vehicle like having to do this yourself nearly

56
00:04:03,060 --> 00:04:06,560
forgot about it but is there a frunk

57
00:04:06,860 --> 00:04:11,939
I really hate that when EVS first

58
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:17,040
started becoming a thing we were all promised that all cars would have frunks

59
00:04:13,860 --> 00:04:19,560
and now these days it feels like

60
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:22,680
yeah no one's really done much with that idea you're not putting anything in

61
00:04:21,660 --> 00:04:28,860
there hopping into the driver's seat this is a

62
00:04:25,919 --> 00:04:32,340
very nice spot to be now these seats it took me quite a while to get comfortable

63
00:04:30,300 --> 00:04:36,479
I sort of have to be like leaned back and the headrest is out a little bit too

64
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:40,259
far it's pretty clearly just designed for someone that's a lot smaller than

65
00:04:38,639 --> 00:04:44,639
myself and given this seems like it's very squarely aimed at older Millennial

66
00:04:43,020 --> 00:04:50,460
women that are rich I think that's totally fine now one of

67
00:04:48,300 --> 00:04:57,300
my least favorite things in here is the steering wheel it is very plush

68
00:04:52,919 --> 00:05:01,020
incredibly squishy but just

69
00:04:57,300 --> 00:05:03,300
uh I don't know it just squeaks all the

70
00:05:01,020 --> 00:05:06,440
time like you're every time that you move your hands it's just like

71
00:05:07,020 --> 00:05:12,120
oh that's terrible I hate it the party

72
00:05:10,259 --> 00:05:19,320
piece of this interior though happens when you turn it on watch this the gear

73
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:21,180
selector orb flips 180 degrees to reveal

74
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:27,660
the gear selector and then when you turn it back off it flips back around is it a

75
00:05:24,060 --> 00:05:29,460
complete gimmick yes do I like it also

76
00:05:27,660 --> 00:05:35,220
yes this is the sort of thing like strange EV stuff can go into two

77
00:05:32,580 --> 00:05:39,419
categories in 10 Years everybody will be like that was stupid and in 10 years

78
00:05:37,259 --> 00:05:43,560
people will be like look at this strange thing they did I love it overall the

79
00:05:41,280 --> 00:05:49,500
quality of the Interior is very high like there might be some Plastics around

80
00:05:46,020 --> 00:05:51,419
but the finish of them is very nice lots

81
00:05:49,500 --> 00:05:55,680
of other stuff is very soft to the touch and overall it just looks and works

82
00:05:53,820 --> 00:06:01,080
really good now there are some bits that are not fantastic so like the climate

83
00:05:59,039 --> 00:06:06,600
controls here it's sort of half a screen half a little knobby Chum it's fine but

84
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:11,039
it isn't Dreadful like some of the stuff that we have also there are dedicated

85
00:06:08,759 --> 00:06:14,400
like media buttons down here but it's a little bit too much of a reach to get

86
00:06:12,479 --> 00:06:18,300
them so I just end up using the knob here but that's it Knob works great so

87
00:06:16,620 --> 00:06:22,139
just use that one thing that's absolutely hilarious in order to change

88
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:26,400
the mirrors there's this little knob over here which works perfectly fine but

89
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:31,380
on the passenger side you get this ultimate little drug compartment look at

90
00:06:29,220 --> 00:06:35,699
this the stuff you could stash in here what were they doing wait is this

91
00:06:34,020 --> 00:06:39,360
supposed to be for like perfumes okay maybe don't put your weed in there also

92
00:06:37,620 --> 00:06:42,300
kind of interesting the glove box just slides out it doesn't really matter for

93
00:06:40,979 --> 00:06:46,199
the functionality but it's kind of nice this shares the platform with the ionic

94
00:06:44,340 --> 00:06:50,400
5 and also the stupid way you connect your phone so heaps of storage here

95
00:06:48,060 --> 00:06:54,720
there and there but for whatever reason the charger for your phones down here so

96
00:06:52,560 --> 00:07:00,539
you need like a long cable that you have to plug in there bring it up around to

97
00:06:57,840 --> 00:07:03,360
in here where they do have a wireless charger for some reason it's clearly

98
00:07:02,460 --> 00:07:07,740
where you're supposed to put your phone but Android auto only works with the USB

99
00:07:05,819 --> 00:07:11,639
plug down there all right let's go driving because that's where this thing

100
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:15,419
really shines just like I shine at seguing to our sponsor thanks to secret

106
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:41,009
in the description and check out secret Labs today

107
00:07:42,979 --> 00:07:49,080
as I said before this thing is stupid

108
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:51,479
fast now normally you get 430 horsepower

109
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:54,560
more than enough but you press this boost button right here and it goes up

110
00:07:53,759 --> 00:08:04,460
to 483. oh my God 0 to 60 in this thing 3.8

111
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:04,460
seconds holy freak

112
00:08:05,099 --> 00:08:10,800
s it actually slams you back like

113
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:14,360
lttstore.com water bottle just got thrown I need to go secure that

114
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:20,580
seriously this is one of the most hilarious cars I've ever driven it's

115
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:22,280
just like a mom soccer wagon whatever

116
00:08:20,580 --> 00:08:28,020
but it's actually like you can nauseate your

117
00:08:25,319 --> 00:08:34,080
passengers it is one of the quickest cards that I've ever been in and

118
00:08:30,599 --> 00:08:36,000
just look at oh my God I love it

119
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:41,039
the most hilarious thing about this is that you can turn off traction control

120
00:08:37,399 --> 00:08:45,120
and if proper just turns the front tires

121
00:08:41,039 --> 00:08:47,519
into smoke like Tesla Model y nothing on

122
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:51,060
this not even close that right there the nannies immediately come in and they're

123
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:54,660
like you're having fun you shouldn't be doing that and this right here it's like

124
00:08:52,620 --> 00:09:01,080
hmm do you want to do a front wheel drive burnout you can now this thing is

125
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:08,279
kind of weird it's somewhere in between very comfy and plush and outright

126
00:09:05,459 --> 00:09:14,220
performance monster in Corners it's also very far from a slouch it does have a

127
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:16,320
fair bit of body roll but it just grips

128
00:09:14,220 --> 00:09:22,140
the ground in a way that I feel like only EVS are able to do with their like

129
00:09:18,839 --> 00:09:24,899
super low Center of mass it is very

130
00:09:22,140 --> 00:09:28,980
huckable even if you don't quite have the level of feedback through the wheel

131
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:34,980
that I would really want that said compared to something like the G80 that

132
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:39,120
had a very clear Target down where it was just outright comfortable you're

133
00:09:36,779 --> 00:09:44,760
driving down the road it's very quiet very plush just an incredibly nice spot

134
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:49,440
to be in and also the ionic 5n will be coming out soon which again if you want

135
00:09:46,980 --> 00:09:52,740
performance that's what you go for this right here

136
00:09:50,940 --> 00:09:57,120
it's just kind of weird because I don't quite know who this is for and I really

137
00:09:55,680 --> 00:10:01,800
wish they had just taken it all the way to being super comfortable that said I

138
00:09:59,519 --> 00:10:05,880
do really appreciate how much of a sleeper this thing is is this the most

139
00:10:03,959 --> 00:10:11,100
hilarious Car of the Year Andy oh yeah yeah this is an absolute hoot I have my

140
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:16,080
own custom drive mode which is basically just sport mode but with the comfy

141
00:10:13,260 --> 00:10:19,080
suspension and it is just so huggable the whole thing's like whoop if they had

142
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:24,839
just made it like a little bit more plush and just said we'll give them all the power in the

143
00:10:22,500 --> 00:10:30,240
most comfy vehicle who cares if it really goes around corners

144
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:34,019
you can just do burnouts it follows around who cares one of the things that

145
00:10:32,399 --> 00:10:39,600
I feel like prevents this from really entering the upper echelons of like

146
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:41,820
super comfy nice on long road trips cars

147
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:47,519
is the sound system this right here is the bang Olufsen one and it's

148
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:51,420
fine now possibly the worst thing about this sound system is how you can figure

149
00:10:49,560 --> 00:10:55,740
it you know how every single person knows what like bass mids and treble are

150
00:10:53,700 --> 00:11:01,260
here they decided you don't need that it's a lot easier to have warm bright

151
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:06,899
energetic relaxed I think only like audio files describe stuff as bright or

152
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:12,420
warm fortunately I have kind of figured it out so energetic is a v curve more

153
00:11:09,779 --> 00:11:17,160
bass more treble relaxed less trouble less bass bright more treble warm more

154
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:22,740
bass and we found that the most neutral that we could get was relaxed four

155
00:11:20,399 --> 00:11:28,860
notches over the worst thing about this sound system is its staging or complete

156
00:11:25,980 --> 00:11:33,720
lack thereof it's instead of a feeling like you're surrounded by speakers it

157
00:11:31,560 --> 00:11:37,260
sounds more like you're in a empty room with an exceptional Bluetooth speaker

158
00:11:35,579 --> 00:11:45,309
it's just kind of like sound it's not coherent

159
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:52,140
dno could have done that would take this to the absolute next level is to have

160
00:11:50,100 --> 00:11:56,399
different impulse response profiles for it when the sunroof is open and closed

161
00:11:54,360 --> 00:12:00,480
because it is quite a big problem when you have all the sound bouncing all

162
00:11:58,380 --> 00:12:05,220
around and confusing things in the end you're left with something that even

163
00:12:02,459 --> 00:12:09,480
though it does smoke like forty thousand dollar car sound systems

164
00:12:07,500 --> 00:12:15,000
doesn't really live up to an 80 grand one oh and the most disappointing thing

165
00:12:12,060 --> 00:12:19,440
it has an infinite baffle subwoofer in it that is a really cool way to do it

166
00:12:17,279 --> 00:12:24,240
that should deliver extremely clear bass and this guy is passing us on a double

167
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:28,320
yellow that is super illegal dude anyway an infinite baffle subwoofer is when

168
00:12:26,820 --> 00:12:32,040
instead of having your subwoofer in like a box or something you have one side

169
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:35,700
that's on the inside of the car and the other side that just vents to atmosphere

170
00:12:33,660 --> 00:12:41,100
like there's an actual hole in the wheel well of the back left tire where it just

171
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:47,040
sub pushes the sound out that way this in theory delivers much cleaner and

172
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:48,779
coherent bass but in practice I don't

173
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:55,440
know if it's the reflections or just how big this is but it's all just sort of

174
00:12:52,279 --> 00:12:58,139
mixes all together and

175
00:12:55,440 --> 00:13:02,160
I don't know looking at the graphs when you compare it to our Target curve

176
00:12:59,519 --> 00:13:08,880
there's some real weirdness around like 100 200 Hertz and it's too bad because

177
00:13:05,220 --> 00:13:10,380
it obscures kind of like the low end and

178
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:14,480
the high end so your bass just sort of sounds more like instead of like

179
00:13:14,579 --> 00:13:22,380
ah it's doing a U-turn here and one of my least favorite things about this is

180
00:13:19,380 --> 00:13:25,500
the turning radius parking this even

181
00:13:22,380 --> 00:13:27,360
despite having a really good 360 cam is

182
00:13:25,500 --> 00:13:31,920
a lot more difficult than I would like what is great though is the infotainment

183
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:35,160
everything very easily controlled by this knob if you don't want to use the

184
00:13:33,300 --> 00:13:39,959
knob the touchscreen also works really well Android auto goes all the way

185
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:45,899
across and yeah it all just works well one thing that's hilarious though in all

186
00:13:42,540 --> 00:13:48,000
of these the voice memo app is like one

187
00:13:45,899 --> 00:13:53,040
of their favorite things and just who really wants this like oh yeah how's it

188
00:13:50,700 --> 00:13:56,760
going there Bob I heard that I don't know in the battery they have lights on

189
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:59,760
their way too hot and everyone's complaining

190
00:13:57,899 --> 00:14:03,959
one thing that's kind of strange about this it does have a one pedal driving

191
00:14:01,620 --> 00:14:07,800
mode so that means you hit the gas to go and you let off the gas to stop I

192
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:10,920
absolutely love it and it's one of my favorite things about EVS because I feel

193
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:15,720
like it gives you like a connectedness to the drive that you just don't get in

194
00:14:13,560 --> 00:14:20,040
an automatic transmission problem though it just turns it off all the time for no

195
00:14:18,300 --> 00:14:24,000
good reason so you start the car one pedal driving not enabled you need to

196
00:14:22,019 --> 00:14:29,160
click it here on the pedal to turn it on then you put it in reverse turns it off

197
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:33,720
then you like put it in a park and start driving again one pedal driving is going

198
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:36,959
to be turned off it isn't really a big deal because again all you have to do is

199
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:40,680
press this little paddle here but it means that every single time that I get

200
00:14:38,519 --> 00:14:44,399
into the car I forget to do that and overshoot the first stop sign or stop

201
00:14:42,540 --> 00:14:48,360
light that I go to because it just starts creeping forward and I don't

202
00:14:46,620 --> 00:14:52,980
expect it I don't know why they did it it just doesn't make sense now I do feel

203
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:59,279
like I've been a little bit hard on you Genesis this is an absolutely fantastic

204
00:14:56,100 --> 00:15:02,160
car and I think I'm just being hard

205
00:14:59,279 --> 00:15:05,399
because I want it to be as good as I can be because

206
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:09,420
again you guys are kind of leading the EV space right now Tesla driver's got

207
00:15:08,100 --> 00:15:14,040
some fat now I do feel like I've spent a lot of

208
00:15:11,399 --> 00:15:21,180
my time just nitpicking things because this is an exceptional car like it just

209
00:15:17,339 --> 00:15:23,339
smokes well like Maki destroyed Tesla in

210
00:15:21,180 --> 00:15:27,540
many ways it's better like I trust the driver assists in this I'm not going to

211
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:31,680
spend an extra ten thousand dollars so that I can get killed on the highway

212
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:36,720
let's beta test some software on the open road that's a great idea but

213
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:41,100
seriously though at 80 grand for the performance version this thing is not

214
00:15:38,699 --> 00:15:47,459
cheap but at the same time what other grocery getter has nearly 500 horsepower

215
00:15:43,980 --> 00:15:50,459
this thing is an absolute hoot to drive

216
00:15:47,459 --> 00:15:53,180
and I just really appreciate what EVs

217
00:15:50,459 --> 00:16:00,060
are doing where they're just taking like regular what would be a very boring car

218
00:15:56,579 --> 00:16:02,660
and just giving it oh

219
00:16:00,060 --> 00:16:08,639
the sort of performance that can murder supercars from a couple years ago I I do

220
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:12,540
really like this thing Andy I tried to not like it and I was not able that much

221
00:16:10,980 --> 00:16:17,160
power if you guys like this video hit like get

222
00:16:14,579 --> 00:16:19,560
subscribed just have a fantastic whole day I'm gonna use the boost mode a

223
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:22,459
couple more times foreign
