2021 Genesis GV80 3.0L: Private Fleet Car Review.
This Car Review Is About: A new entrant, one of three in its family, to the “luxo” SUV marketplace. Genesis has had the G80 and G70 sedans for sometime, and in late mid-2020 released the GV80, with the GV70 unveiled in November.
The GV80 has three engine choices, a single transmission, and varying electronics & trim aligned with the engines. There is a 2.5L four with front or all wheel drive, a 3.0L straight six with diesel fuel and AWD, or a petrol fed 3.5L V6 also with an AWD system.
Driving the Hours of Darkness
One of my favourite times for driving is at night or in the early morning; and by early morning I mean well before ‘sparrow’s fart’. The roads are mostly empty and everything is quiet and serene.

2021 Suzuki Swift GLX Turbo: Private Fleet Car Review
This Car Review Is About: A update to a member of the always popular Swift range. The GLX Turbo, in this case, gets a little extra equipment as part of the Series 2 refresh. For now, it’s also the top of the three tier range as the Suzuki Swift Sport takes a hiatus.
How Much Does It Cost?: $25,410 drive-away is what you’ll see as a sticker price. That’s up from the Series 1 price of $22,990 two years ago.
Under The Bonnet Is?: A perky 1.0 litre three cylinder engine, which is good for 82kW and 160Nm from 1,500rpm to 4,000rpm.
Transmission is a six speed auto only sadly, and it feels a bit like a dual clutch, but isn’t.
