2023 GENESIS GV60 BOOST MODE POV REVIEW

EV Channels Review

The 2023 Genesis GV60 Performance is lauded as a potential favorite EV, offering a "fizz" and genuine driving fun. The reviewer highlights its compact, "hot hatch"-like driving dynamics, surprising rear-bias that allows the tail to step out, and the availability of a drift mode, all contributing to an enthusiast-focused experience. The "Boost" mode, increasing output to 483 horsepower, is described as "hilarious" and instantly engaging. Beyond performance, the GV60 impresses with its quiet cabin, communicative steering, and unique features like a sliding glove box drawer and a face-recognition entry system. However, the reviewer notes the need to re-enable the "i-pedal" regen mode after each drive as a minor annoyance. Despite its $70,000 price tag for the performance trim, the GV60 is praised for its high-quality feel and engaging driving experience, making it a compelling, albeit expensive, option.
