Consumer Reports' "Talking Cars" episode delves into the 2023 Genesis Electrified GV70, highlighting its luxurious feel and quiet ride, which closely mirrors its gasoline counterpart. The dual-motor AWD system offers ample power, with a notable boost mode, and the regenerative braking paddles are praised for their intuitive usability and customizable levels. However, the vehicle falls short in range, with an EPA estimate of 236 miles that reviewers found anxiety-inducing in real-world testing, especially when using climate control or spirited acceleration. The interior, while well-built with quality materials, is described as somewhat bland for its price point. The limited color palette and availability in only 23 states are also noted drawbacks. While Genesis aims to undercut luxury German brands, the Electrified GV70's range limitations and high cost, even with potential lease tax credits, lead reviewers to question its value proposition, with some suggesting the gasoline GV70 might be a more sensible purchase for those prioritizing range and cost savings.
