Which Genesis Luxury Electric SUV Best Fits Your Lifestyle?

Genesis has redefined the luxury electric SUV segment with the GV60 and Electrified GV70, two models that blend high performance, cutting-edge technology, and exceptional design. 

While both vehicles embody Genesis’ commitment to innovation and elegance, they cater to distinct preferences and needs. Let’s explore how these two Genesis electric cars compare across key areas, including size, interior, performance and range, technology, and safety.

Size and Cargo Space

The GV60 is a compact luxury electric SUV tailored for urban and suburban environments. It measures 4,515 mm in length with a wheelbase of 2,900 mm. These dimensions make the GV60 exceptionally agile, easy to park, and perfectly suited for navigating tight city streets. Despite its compact size, the GV60 offers a practical cargo capacity of 680 litres in the trunk and 1,550 litres when the rear seats are folded.

The Electrified GV70, on the other hand, is designed for those who value extra space and versatility. Measuring 4,715 mm in length and featuring a wheelbase of 2,875 mm, it provides a more commanding presence on the road. This larger size translates to greater interior volume, with a trunk capacity of 813 litres and a total cargo capacity of 1,601 litres when the rear seats are folded.

Interior

Inside, the GV60’s cabin reflects a futuristic and minimalist design philosophy. Unique features like the Crystal Sphere, which functions as both a shift-by-wire and an ambient lighting element, underscore its high-tech appeal.

Similarly, the Electrified GV70 features a robust motor configuration that delivers 429 horsepower, providing ample power for both city and highway driving.
