2022 Genesis GV60 Review, Pricing, and Specs Genesis is readying a second electric model for its lineup of luxury cars, this time in the form of the GV60 crossover. The GV60 will share a platform with the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and the Kia EV6 SUVs and will sit alongside the Electrified G80 sedan when it goes on sale sometime next year. The GV60 incorporates styling elements found in other Genesis models, but it lacks the brand's large trapezoidal grille that stretches between the dual element headlamps, substituting a slimmer lower grille across the front bumper. Inside, the GV60's cabin looks decidedly premium, with a large monolithic display screen serving as both gauge cluster and infotainment system. Genesis hasn't released any information about the GV60's powertrain yet, but we expect both rear- and all-wheel-drive models; the most powerful EV6 trim boasts up to 576 horsepower, so we're hoping such a powerhouse will also be available here in the Genesis. What's New for 2023? The GV60 will be a new model for Genesis and the brand's third SUV when it hits the market. Genesis says U.S. deliveries are expected to start sometime in 2022, which leads us to believe those cars will be marked as 2023 models. Get Pre-Approved Schedule Test Drive Value Your Trade Pricing and Which One to Buy Genesis has not released any information about pricing or said what features will be standard and optional on the GV60. We expect a starting price around $55,000, which will help the new SUV compete directly with rivals such as the upcoming Audi Q4 e-tron, the Volvo XC40 Recharge, and the coupe-like C40 Recharge. When we learn more about how the GV60 will be priced and equipped, we'll update this story with more details. ENGINE, TRANSMISSION, AND PERFORMANCE The base GV60 will have a range of around 300 miles and a complete charge cycle of around 2 hours. There is also a new Boost Mode feature on the new 2022 Genesis GV60 that will throw you back in your seat and get you to your destination sooner. Please make sure to drive responsibly. INTERIOR, COMFORT, AND CARGO Inside, the GV60 delivers a luxury experience, thanks to attractive materials and excellent build quality. Its driver-centric layout and straightforward controls cater to driving enthusiasts. Likewise, the upscale brightwork and decoratively stitched surfaces on our test car appeased our affluent side. Genesis also keeps things classy by avoiding the urge to plaster faux carbon-fiber bits and a flat-bottom steering wheel into the cabin, and the result is an interior that seems more luxurious than the Alfa Romeo Giulia or Jaguar XE. Get Pre-Approved Schedule Test Drive Value Your Trade While the front seat strikes a nice balance between comfort and sport, the rear seat is compromised by limited legroom. We managed to fit five carry-on bags in the GV60’s trunk, and 14 total with the rear seat folded. Interior cubby storage includes a useful tray at the front of the center console that is perfect for smartphones and other small items. Unfortunately, the door pockets are small, and the center console bin lacks organization. INFOTAINMENT AND CONNECTIVITY Every GV60 is fitted with a standard 10.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system that protrudes from the otherwise clean dashboard. The setup includes desirable features, such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability. We’ll know more about the 2022 GV60’s infotainment offerings closer to the car’s on-sale date. SAFETY AND DRIVER ASSISTANCE FEATURES However, the Genesis hasn’t been evaluated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The electric SUV boasts several standard driver-assist technologies, such as adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go technology and forward collision warning with automated emergency braking. Key safety features include: Standard automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection. Standard lane departure warning and lane-keeping assist. Standard adaptive cruise control.

2022 Genesis GV70 Overview Based on the excellent G70 sports sedan, the 2022 Genesis GV70 compact-luxury SUV should provide similar driving enjoyment with a higher seating position and extra cargo room. Engine choices will include a turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder or a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V-6; all-wheel drive will likely be optional and all GV70 models come with an eight-speed automatic transmission. If it follows the usual Genesis model of pumping even base models full with luxury features, the GV70 may quickly become the value player in the crowded compact-luxury SUV market. What's New for 2022? The GV70 will be an all-new model for the Genesis brand when it goes on sale sometime in early 2021. It can't come soon enough, as Genesis lacks an entrant in the red hot compact luxury SUV segment. Get Pre-Approved Get Today's Specials Value Your Trade Pricing and Which One to Buy Since we haven't had the chance to drive the GV70, and Genesis hasn't yet said how many trim levels or features will be available throughout the lineup. We expect both the turbo four and the twin-turbo V-6 engines to deliver peppy performance, so choosing one will be a difficult task. Once Genesis releases more information about the GV70's available features and options, we'll update this story with details. Engine, Transmission, and Performance The GV70 will offer both a turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder and a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V-6 engines. The four-cylinder serves as the entry-level engine and make around 300-hp while the V-6 makes 375-hp and will be exclusively offered on the Sport model. While a manual transmission is offered with the turbo four in the G70 sedan, the GV70 will stick with the eight-speed automatic as standard equipment. All-wheel drive will undoubtedly be offered and may even come standard, otherwise rear-wheel drive may be the base setup given it will ride on the G70's rear-wheel-drive architecture. Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG The EPA has not released fuel-economy estimates for the GV70 and we won't know any details about its efficiency until closer to its on-sale date. Once we have a GV70 into our showroom for testing, we'll see how it does on our South Florida highway fuel-economy test drive route. Interior, Comfort, and Cargo We don't have a full list of standard and optional features, but photos of the GV70's cabin show an impressive level of luxury. A common complaint about the G70 is its cramped rear seat, but from the looks of things, the GV70 has more space to offer additional legroom to back-seat riders. Cargo capacity, too, will be more generous. We'll have to wait to see how the GV70 will compare with chief rivals such as the Audi Q5, the BMW X3, and the Mercedes-Benz GLC-class in terms of passenger and cargo space. Infotainment and Connectivity It appears as though the GV70 will adopt its infotainment arrangement from the larger GV80 SUV which is already on sale. That means a large, widescreen infotainment display sprouting from the dashboard with a click wheel controller mounted on the center console. Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot are all anticipated features. A high-end Lexicon stereo system will certainly be offered, but Genesis has not released a list of standard or optional features yet. Get Pre-Approved Get Today's Specials Value Your Trade Safety and Driver-Assistance Features Neither the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) nor the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) have completed crash testing for the GV70. Driver-assistance features such as automated emergency braking, pedestrian detection, adaptive cruise control, and lane-keeping assist are all present and accounted for. Key safety features include: Standard automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection Standard lane-departure warning with lane-keeping assist Standard adaptive cruise control Warranty and Maintenance Coverage The Genesis brand offers excellent warranty coverage that stretches for far longer than most other premium automakers. The GV70 should come with powertrain coverage for up to 10 years or 100,000 miles and complimentary scheduled maintenance for three years or 36,000 miles. The Jaguar F-Pace offers similar bumper-to-bumper coverage and longer complimentary maintenance, but the powertrain policy is nearly half that of the Genesis's. Limited warranty covers 5 years or 60,000 miles Powertrain warranty covers 10 years or 100,000 miles Complimentary maintenance is covered for 3 years or 36,000 miles Get Pre-Approved Get Today's Specials Value Your Trade Contact Wallace Genesis of Stuart today to get more information and to reserve your 2022 Genesis GV70 SUV today.
