2023 GENESIS GV70 ELECTRIFIED REVIEW - THE NEW LUXURY BENCHMARK ELECTRIC SUV

EV Channels Review

The 2023 Genesis GV70 Electrified is lauded as a new benchmark for luxury electric SUVs, surpassing rivals like the Lexus RZ and Audi e-tron. The reviewer highlights its immense power (429 hp standard, 483 hp with boost), impressive 0-60 mph time of 3.83 seconds, and rapid 800v charging capability (10-80% in 18 minutes). The exterior and interior design are praised for their luxury and quality, with particular commendation for the suede headliner, aluminum trim, and intuitive controls, including excellent volume knobs. Key drawbacks identified are the restricted rear-seat legroom and the vehicle's limited availability in certain US states, including Florida at launch. Despite these points, the reviewer finds the GV70 Electrified to be a compelling package, offering a superior experience to its competitors, especially considering its potential eligibility for EV tax credits which effectively lowers the cost of the higher Prestige trim.
