Absolutely agree.. Plenty of people are calling for 400hp (300KW) for the stinger and G70 you'd think it'd be a walk in the park for Hyundai /KIA /Genesis to extract those few extra ponies without needing to spend too much money on R&D.. Hopefully won't be far away..

@@malsmith2012 There are a lot of factors required to add horsepower if you don't want to reduce reliability and fuel economy while not increasing emmisions and cost. Remember these cars are sold globally so they need to meet requirements for a lot of different markets.

I expect tbe 3.3 to be replaced in two years with the 3.5 tt

@@Al-qn3sj Hi Al I totally understand that but 20 odd kilowatts wouldn't be a big stretch at all for the TT V6 and lost fuel efficiency would be so minor.. People who buy or are thinking of buying a stinger, in my opinion, would be even more enticed with that type of power rating.. Cheers..

@@malsmith2012 I don't know the specifics about the 3.3T engine or how long it has been around. But when automakers design car, engine, drivetrain, they design it based on agreed upon goals which are approved by senior exec's. Often times hitting all these goals is hard enough within the time constraints of getting things out into the market quickly. With mainstream cars, meeting cost targets, reliability and emissions is at the forefront. And because a lot of what is done during development has limited time to validation they usually release products in a conservative state. Its better to be underpowered, then to be too expensive or have reliability/warranty issues. Each automaker has a different risk tolerance based on their culture. I would say that as these 3.3T engines see more time in the market, the automaker will get better real world data on reliability and will also in parallel be cutting costs. This should in the future allow them to increase power (but they will never push the limits right out of the box for a mainstream car)

G70 is advance trim. No LSD, Factory All Season Tires and missing other features of Sport Trim. I have sport AWD and beat a C43 amg, well slightly :)

You described the obvious

Different class

@@LordFreak030 yes I know the M340i and RS3 are in different classes but the BMW has 398 horsepower to the wheels which is about 430 hp. It can compete with an RS3.

If the C43 beat a g70 then it's common sense that a Stinger would lose

Not close at all, dont be a delusional Genesis fanboy. C43 destroyed the Hyundai.. Regardless the Genesis is good value just not close to the C43 beast!

@@mutualdecline2174 Stinger weighs lighter than the Genesis. Should be a closer race then the Genesis, but regardless both cars are awesome.

you cant clean the valves through the fuel tank in GDI engines, the valves are not sprayed with fuel. best way to prevent carbon build up from direct injection is an oil catch can. best way to clean it if you already have build up is walnut blasting

Basically the car needs to be tighter ;)

Not a stock Stinger

Stinger and G70 use mostly same platform. (Stiner wheel base is 10cm longer than G70) Stiner is closer GT type

Stinger will be slower it’s heavier than a g70

Stinger is slower. There’s videos

That is true, though something to consider is the difference in interior quality. The C43 is far superior. That benz will also look like a classic in 10 years, whereas I have a feeling the ultra-modern styling on the G70 will appear cheap and tacky sooner than people think.

@@murrayer5426 this is the first time ive ever heard anyone compliment a c class interior over ANY genesis model, and that is such a small percentage who view it that way, sure this is all subjective but unless you're a fanboy, you'd rarely see anyone go in favor of the c class interior over a genesis, their interior is far nicer imo, also between the flimsy and squeaky as well as pretty old c class interior and the new stuff, i take the new stuff, hence why they decided to remodel the interior in the new C-class, its just been a more common opinion despite it all being subjective, but objectively the c43 is no where near "far superior" than a genesis, the mercedes interior quality is pretty sub par and thats been a fact in terms of build quality

@@jad3636 Not sure what you mean. I owned a '19 g70, now in a '22 m340i, have more than one friend that owns a c43. Mercedes has the best interior of the German manufacturers. If you're someone who loves to press hard on interior paneling and then get mad that it squeaks, then go ahead I guess. The ergonomics and tech of a Benz is, as I said, FAR SUPERIOR to that of even the newest Genesis interiors, which the g70 is still not available with.

@@murrayer5426 Im not entirely sure what you're on about, the interior of the mercedes has been KNOWN to be inferior in terms of quality, you may like the appearance, but their seats are nothing special at all, feels like a regular seat to me, and owning a new 3.3 g70 with every option, and testing out the new g80 and GV80 ergonomic seats, theyre all very comfortable and never have I ever sat in either car and went " oh wow id love to be sitting in a mercedes instead Rn" or vice versa lol, its a weird point and you're either really tall, short or just barely fit in the seats and may have back problems to really feel any sort of difference since the quality of Genesis' seats are amazing in all honesty and I've never had a problem, 16 way adjustable seats on the highest trim and ive always been comfortable so I dont know what else to tell you, except for the factual statement that Mercedes Benz have always been critiqued on the quality of their interior, and I say that while it is my favorite looking interior out of all the Germans too.

@@Robert-de5xg we have brain, something you don't have 😂

I think there is a video where the G70 wins against A v8 Rspec. The G70 pretty much got the same torque as the v8 and torque in the g70 comes in quicker at 1300 rpm while that rspec was around 5600rpm. The G70 got a top speed of 168mph whiles that R spec got like 155 mph. They did not go backwards in performance.

@@MrGeezil which one do you own?

Oh yea let’s suddenly discontinue the Type S trim we just introduced 1 month ago wtf what type of logic is that no manufacturer would do that

@@f181234 I wouldn’t say discontinue but they hyped it up so much only to be a massive disappointment

Agreed. But I will admit the cost difference you’re paying to beat someone by what half a second? Or maybe 1 or 2 seconds faster at best? That Genesis is looking like a solid bang for your buck.

“Superiority”. Almost $15k more than the G70, less reliable, doesn’t look as good and just as cheap of an interior. Ok 👌

@@NSUScooter Performance specs reflect 4.1 to 4.4 for 0-60. Maybe 1 sec in the quarter. For the number of times you'd line up against an AMG in real life better to invest the difference and have another $100K in 40 years. Even more considering maintenance costs.

I’ve driven a c43 before when your flat out the trans is great shifts very quick with authority………..but normal driving it sucks very jerky and gear hunts a lot and it’s a torque converter. BMW Has tuning of torque converter auto down to a science. There zf 8 sp is just as quick but buttery smooth at all times.

Why? I keep seeing Genesis and Acura fanboys trying to use price as an excuse for why their cars are slower. I mean, pricing really comes out the same in the end. Genesis and Acura are not discounting their cars at all. You have to buy at MSRP. Audi, Benz, BMW are giving at least 10% off the cars. You end up paying about the same.

@@chrisak49 how are they discounting 10%? Just curious peace ☮️

As long as they hold fast to that 10 year warranty, all their cars are gonna launch soft. It's a tradeoff in performance for mechanical reliability.

You gotta test drive a G70. It's amazing

@@STERLING430 I'm already convinced about the G70. I would own one right now if it had the same practicality as the Stinger. As for the Stinger, I'm still not sure about the level of refinement. German cars are brilliant but they aren't good values.
