Genesis GV60 Performance Lux AWD SUV 2024 Review

Genesis GV60 – Amongst the growing list of smaller to medium sized electric SUVs, the Genesis GV60 is one that seems to get the balance just right.

It’s a more compact design than the Genesis GV70 we drove last week. Designed from the platform up as an EV.

It’s style is a blend of coupe and SUV and looks great in the flesh. Lots of people commented about its looks and most really liked it.

Inside the pure EV design shows in a  simple and spacious feel. There is an abundance of storage space, and the dash layout is driver focused.

The GV60 Performance Lux All Wheel Drive model comes with a the 77.4 kilowatt hour battery with some 360 kilowatts  of power and a healthy 700 newton metres of torque.

This is good for a 0-100kmh time of around 4 seconds. That’s quick for any car.

It also has a real life range of between 400 – 450 kilometres.

Coming from Genesis, you expect the GV60 to be full of luxury, comfort and safety features and it doesn’t disappoint.

There is a lot to like, but in honestly not a fan of the digital external rear view mirrors. It takes a long time to get used to them.

Priced from around $114,000 plus the usual costs
