2023 GENESIS GV60 PERFORMANCE - POV FIRST IMPRESSIONS

EV Channels Review

The Genesis GV60 Performance is presented as a compelling luxury EV, with its interior being the standout feature, praised for its phenomenal materials, switchgear, and design, justifying its $69,000 price point. The reviewer highlights the comfortable and luxurious daily driving experience, excellent ride quality even on 21-inch wheels, and impressive fast-charging capabilities (10-80% in 18 minutes on a 350kW charger). However, the performance model's extra power is deemed overkill, with the reviewer recommending the Advanced trim to save $9,000. Criticisms include a slightly delayed throttle response, especially in non-sport modes, a steering wheel that can be difficult to position comfortably, and a compact size that might be a negative for some. While handling is described as confident and solid, it's noted as being less sporty than the EV6, with a secret drift mode not performing well. Highway range is estimated at around 200 miles, requiring more frequent charging stops. The Bang & Olufsen sound system is considered good, though not class-leading.
