Genesis GV70

The Genesis GV70 is a great entry into the luxury SUV world. This GV70 is a compact SUV. The GV70 starts at around $42,900 but quickly goes up to $65,000. The GV70 comes standard with a 2.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. It comes with 300 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque. You can upgrade to a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 complete with 375 horsepower and 391 lb-ft. This engine comes with an adaptive suspension that reads the road and adjusts settings to suit. The interior of the GV70 is upscale and luxurious.

It comes fully loaded with a heated steering wheel and 3-zone automatic climate control. The entry level trim offers simulated leather seating surfaces, but real leather is offered in the advanced package. It has a 14.5-inch infotainment screen with crisp graphics. The system includes Apple CarPlay/Android Auto integration, navigation, and wireless charging.

Genesis GV80

The Genesis GV80 is a midsize SUV from the luxury brand in Korea. Like all other Genesis models, the GV80 boasts a luxurious interior and tons of space. You can expect the GV80 to start around $55,550. After that, it can go up over $75,000. It has seven trim levels. In 2023 the GV80 got a few upgrades and improvements. All-wheel drive is standard on every trim. It also has redesigned infotainment controls. The GV80 has a turbocharged 4-cylinder engine standard to give you enough power to get through the daily commute. Some trims give you the ability to upgrade to a turbocharged V6 engine.

If you upgrade to the road preview feature, you get a smooth ride because it uses cameras to read the road ahead and adjust the suspension as needed. All-wheel drive is standard and offers five drive modes, which are comfort, eco, snow, custom, and sport. The GV80 includes a remote smart parking assist. This allows you to park your vehicle without even being in it. The GV80 can get in and out of perpendicular and parallel spots. It also offers highway driving assist, which is a collection of features that take on some of the driving because it combines driver assistance features like adaptive cruise control and lane-keep assist and passes on the highway automatically.

Genesis GV60

The GV60 is a completely electric compact SUV with a starting price of $58,890. The GV60 has many standard features, including a head-up display, a Bang & Olufsen audio system, and driver-assistance features. It also comes with advanced AWD and performance AWD variations. It uses the same electric vehicle (EV) platform as the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6. In addition, the 2023 GV60 uses facial recognition to unlock the vehicle. This vehicle comes with a lithium-ion polymer battery that provides the spark for both versions. When you use an ultra-fast charger, you can charge the battery to 80% in 18 minutes. A home charging unit takes the car from 10 to 100% in about seven hours.

Genesis GV70 Electrified

The 2023 Genesis Electrified GV70 is the counterpart to the gas powered GV70. It has an all-electric drivetrain. This version of the GV70 starts at $65,850. It has its own version of the Prestige and Advanced trim levels. The Electrified GV70 can get a distance of 236 miles. This is the distance on a full battery. It has a drive mode button that engages the sport setting. It also has a boost button that increases the output of 429 horsepower to 483 horsepower in 10 second bursts. This version of the GV70 has been enhanced with standard blind-spot monitoring. The cabin is quiet and provides luxurious quality. There are a few things that separate the GV70 from the electrified version, other than that battery, of course. This version doesn’t have exhaust pipes. The grill is somewhat inverted, so the lines are shrunken. The grill is where the charge port is hidden.
