EV Channels Review
The Genesis GV60 Performance is lauded for its exceptional build quality, premium materials, and exhilarating acceleration, achieving a 0-60 mph time of 3.86 seconds. The reviewer highlights the seamless integration of electronics, clear interface, and useful features like the surround-view camera snapshot and automatic climate control adjustments. However, significant drawbacks include the advertised but non-functional Plug and Charge capability, the absence of Highway Driving Assist 2 (HDA2) with its crucial features like automatic lane changes and cross-traffic alerts, and the limited availability of the massaging seat to the driver's side only. Range is also a concern, with the reviewer wishing for an additional 50 miles beyond the current EPA estimate, particularly given the $70,000 price point. Other minor annoyances include the finicky face recognition, the persistent reset of one-pedal driving mode, and issues with iPhone integration for unlocking. Suggestions for improvement focus on refining the auto-hold function, enhancing the home screen interface, improving HUD adjustability, adding rear seat-folding switches, and considering a digital rearview mirror. Despite these criticisms, the reviewer highly recommends the GV60 over other E-GMP platform vehicles for those seeking a more premium experience, provided they can find one in the limited states where it's available.
