SNEAK PEEK - GENESIS GV60. IS THIS GENESIS A REVELATION?

EV Channels Review

The Genesis GV60 presents a bold statement in the premium electric crossover segment, aiming to challenge established luxury brands. Its design, spearheaded by Luke Dunkerwalk, is a significant differentiator, featuring a distinctive split headlight design, a flowing front end, and a unique "visor graphic" window line, though the rear spoiler may impede visibility. Inside, the GV60 offers a luxurious and sustainable ambiance, highlighted by the innovative crystal ball transmission lever and a dual-display setup. While practicality is adequate with 432 liters of boot space and some underfloor storage, rear passenger foot room can be tight for taller individuals. Performance figures are strong, with the top-tier dual-motor AWD model boasting 483 horsepower and a 0-60 mph time of just over four seconds. The 77 kWh battery offers competitive WLTP ranges, from 289 to 321 miles, and impressive 350kW charging capabilities, enabling an 18-minute 10-80% charge. The reviewer praises the car's technology, connectivity, and design, suggesting it could appeal strongly to younger buyers less concerned with brand heritage, despite its relative newness in the market.
