Gv60

Performance is where the GV60 makes a lasting impression, blending silent electric punch with refined, confident dynamics. The Luxury AWD variant offers 234kW and 605Nm—a match for any mid-size luxury SUV—while the Performance trim bumps outputs to a mighty 360kW and 700Nm with the “Boost Mode” button. “The GV60’s rapid off the mark with an instant torque hit, steering’s light and easy, while overall cabin serenity in town and at speed is marvellous,” writes Iain Curry (EV Central). James Ward (Drive) adds, “Performance is entertaining both off the mark and at a roll,” and notes the GV60 remains well-mannered and balanced even on twisty roads.

James Wong (CarExpert) clocked the Performance Luxury at 0–100km/h in about 4.0 seconds, making it one of the quickest in the class. The regular dual-motor version is plenty fast for daily use, while the heavier Performance may feel less poised through tighter corners. Some reviewers point out that the “Boost” feature is most fun for quick sprints, and that in city driving, the Luxury variant feels every bit as punchy for most buyers. Ride comfort and highway cruising are both excellent, with the car’s weight and low centre of gravity delivering stability and confidence.

Step inside the GV60 and you’re met with a cabin that’s as futuristic as it is luxurious. “Good grief the cabin of this thing is mind-bending,” says Iain Curry (EV Central), reflecting on features like the digital Crystal Sphere gear selector, suede headliner, and immersive LED ambient lighting. James Ward (Drive) describes the GV60’s exterior as “very approachable and friendly-looking,” a visual contrast to more aggressive rival SUVs. The dashboard’s showpiece is a 27-inch display blending twin digital instruments and infotainment, with haptic buttons for climate and tactile copper trims throughout.

Reviewers are divided on some of the bolder colours (like Glacier White or Monstera Green), but Genesis offers more traditional palettes and plush upholstery. The super-wide, power-adjustable front seats offer heating, ventilation, and massage, with rear seats nearly as comfortable for long journeys. Cargo space trails conventional SUVs, but the boot is easy to load, and an extra 20L frunk adds practicality for cables or groceries. The panoramic sunroof, Bang & Olufsen premium audio, and clean cabin design round out a stylish, high-tech luxury experience.

Technology is a core focus in the GV60, headlined by a pair of 12.3-inch screens for infotainment and driving data, augmented reality head-up display, and a Bang & Olufsen 17-speaker sound system. “A brace of 12.3-inch screens cover your infotainment and integrated digital cockpit… with augmented reality navigation and 17-speaker Bang & Olufsen audio,” reports Iain Curry (EV Central). James Ward (Drive) appreciates features like fingerprint authentication and the digital key, but finds the lack of wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto “a strange omission.”

Driver assistance is extensive, with adaptive cruise, Highway Driving Assist II, blind-spot cameras, rear cross-traffic, and 360-degree vision as standard. Some reviewers find the digital mirrors (optional) and gesture controls fascinating but occasionally fiddly. Connected features include phone-controlled pre-conditioning, remote unlock, OTA updates, and advanced scheduling for charging or route planning. The tech package rivals (and sometimes beats) German luxury marques at this price point.

Real-world range is a strong suit, with up to 470km WLTP for the Luxury variant and closer to 400km for the Performance, depending on wheel choice and driving style. “Genesis says the GV60 is able to pre-condition its battery for more efficient fast charging at DC stations,” explains James Wong (CarExpert), noting the 800V power system enables 10–80% top-ups in just 18 minutes on a 350kW charger. Iain Curry (EV Central) found “energy use was 18.1kWh/100km – below the official figure,” meaning efficiency is strong for an AWD luxury EV.

Charging can be scheduled, and the GV60 supports Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) for running appliances or charging e-bikes straight from the car. While ultimate range rivals the Tesla Model Y and Kia EV6, heavy-footed drivers and cold weather can reduce efficiency. Most owners see 380–440km on daily drives and praise the quick, reliable home or public charging support. For charger install and smart solar integration, find a local solar installer here.

Pairing the GV60 with home (or depot) solar means most day-to-day charging is done nearly for free—especially given its scheduling and 11kW AC charging compatibility. For businesses or urban drivers, sunny daytime charging can slash annual “fuel” costs. With an average home array, owners can offset work commutes and weekend trips with clean, low-emission energy. Solar-ready EVes and smart apps make managing the battery and range easier than ever before.

Over a 2–3 year period, most solar+GV60 owners report substantial savings, especially as rising grid rates make public charging more costly. The V2L feature adds energy freedom for outdoor adventures and home backup during power outages.
