THE 2023 GENESIS GV70 ELECTRIFIED IS A NEAR PERFECT BLEND OF LUXURY, SPEED, & TECH

EV Channels Review

The 2023 Genesis GV70 Electrified successfully translates the luxury and performance of its gasoline counterpart into an all-electric package. The reviewer highlights its stellar acceleration, achieving 0-60 mph in a blistering 3.78 seconds with the boost mode engaged, making it the quickest GV70 variant. While the real-world highway range is estimated around 230 miles (slightly below the EPA's 236-mile estimate, but good for ideal conditions), this is significantly offset by its rapid charging capability, reaching 10-80% in just 18 minutes thanks to its 800-volt architecture. The interior remains a strong point, offering the same high-quality materials, spaciousness, and luxury features as the gas model, with no compromises in rear-seat or cargo space. Key criticisms include the lack of wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the premium pricing, which, even with tax credits, positions it higher than some competitors like the Tesla Model Y. However, the reviewer concludes that the GV70 Electrified offers a superior luxury experience and faster charging, making it a compelling, albeit expensive, electric SUV.
