2024 GENESIS GV60 REVIEW

EV Channels Review

The Genesis GV60 Performance (2024) is lauded as a luxurious evolution of the Ioniq 5, offering a significantly more opulent interior and refined driving experience. The reviewer highlights its comfortable, feature-rich cabin, excellent adaptive suspension, and quiet ride as major strengths, making it a joy to drive. While the performance trim delivers ample power, its real-world efficiency of 2.8 miles per kWh on a 48-mile loop (projecting 217 miles of range) is noted as slightly disappointing, especially compared to other EVs. Criticisms include the finicky infotainment touchpad, a delayed door handle pop-out from certain angles, and the less aggressive 'i-Pedal' mode in Comfort settings. Despite these points, the GV60 is considered a near-perfect EV, held back primarily by software issues like route planning and a desire for improved powertrain efficiency, though the new standard RWD model for 2024 aims to broaden its appeal with better range.
