THE 2024 GENESIS ELECTRIFIED GV70 MIGHT JUST BE THE BEST GENESIS EVER

EV Channels Review

The 2024 Genesis Electrified GV70 is presented as a compelling luxury EV, praised for its potent dual-motor powertrain delivering 483 horsepower and a swift 0-60 mph time of 3.7 seconds (with boost). The reviewer highlights its comfortable ride, exceptional cabin quietness (rated A+), and fast 800-volt charging capabilities, achieving 10-80% in just 18 minutes. A significant advantage noted is its traditional styling, closely resembling the gasoline model, which may appeal to buyers avoiding futuristic EV aesthetics. However, the vehicle is criticized for its limited real-world range of approximately 240 miles (EPA estimated 236 miles) and a disappointing, small front trunk due to the platform's conversion from a gasoline architecture. While the interior offers premium features like a heads-up display and comfortable seating, the reviewer points out the lack of a four-way adjustable headrest and some ergonomic quirks in the control layout. Despite these drawbacks, the reviewer leans towards the GV70 over competitors like the Tesla Model Y for its luxury feel, comfort, and unique features, though acknowledges Tesla's charging network advantage for extensive road-tripping.
