2023 Genesis GV80 Summary

Like a thief in the night, Genesis is creeping up on the established luxury players in the Australian new-car market.

Its sales numbers remain relatively modest, but they’re ticking up all the time, and a growing presence on the road is turning an increasing number of heads. 

The brand has committed to cease production of petrol and diesel models in 2025, and move to a 100 per cent pure-electric line-up by 2030. But for the time being its flagship, the large, three-row GV80 SUV, is powered by good-old internal combustion.

And the subject of this test sits at the top of the GV80 pyramid. As the name implies, the 3.5T AWD is powered by a 3.5-litre turbo-petrol V6 sending drive to all four wheels.

We spent a week with the three-row, six-seat version to see how it copes with the rigours of family life.

2024 Porsche Cayenne Summary

The Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT needs a better name. This is the king of Cayennes and quite possibly the ruler of all super SUVs.

Well, the Cayenne Turbo GT is the fastest SUV around the Nurburgring Nordschleife. Not just that, it has such colossal power and torque it'll be side-by-side with a Porsche 911 GT3 RS in a sprint from 0-100km/h. No, a better name for this SUV would be the Cayenne GT3.

Which is perfect for me because I'm at the point in my life where although I love full-on and noisy cars I also have a full-on and noisy family.

We lived with the Cayenne Turbo GT for a week to find out if this super SUV was also a super family car - from practicality to safety.

We're also a family with ridiculously high expectations of luxury SUVs having lived with and tested each of the Cayenne Turbo GT's rivals - from the Lamborghini Urus and Bentley Bentayga to the Aston Martin DBX and Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio.
