2023 GENESIS GV60 REVIEW: THE BEST GENESIS YET?

EV Channels Review

The 2023 Genesis GV60 is presented as a strong contender in the luxury EV crossover segment, potentially being Genesis's best vehicle to date. The reviewer highlights its exceptional ride quality, attributing it to adaptive dampers with road preview, and praises its quiet, well-buttoned-down interior. Performance is a standout, especially in the top 'Performance' trim, which offers exhilarating acceleration with a boost mode. The reviewer also commends the advanced safety features, the unique and funky interior design, and the availability of desirable comfort features like heated/ventilated seats. However, the GV60 is not without its drawbacks. The reviewer expresses disappointment with the stiff and uncomfortable lower seat cushion, the presence of cheap-feeling plastics in key areas (mirror adjuster, door handles), and the overwhelming and confusing control layout with numerous buttons and unlabeled functions. The estimated range of 378 km for the performance trim is noted as competitive but not class-leading, especially compared to rivals like the Tesla Model Y. Charging speed on Level 2 was also slower than expected. Despite these criticisms, the GV60 is recommended for its overall package, performance, and unique styling, but potential buyers are advised to consider the limited range and interior material quality.
