2024 Genesis GV60 Review | A Benchmark for the True Luxury Electric Vehicle
The 2024 Genesis GV60 is a groundbreaking addition to the luxury electric SUV market. Cutting-edge features and amenities establish its luxury status while its eco-friendly credentials don’t force shoppers to compromise on the exceptional performance they love.
From its impressive range and quick acceleration to its luxurious interior and innovative safety features, the 2024 Genesis GV60 promises to be a game-changer among luxury electric SUVs in 2024 and beyond. The Genesis of Scottsdale team is excited to present this comprehensive 2024 electric SUV review.
GV60 Rivals and Rankings
For the new model year, Genesis added a rear-wheel drive edition with a long driving range and an extremely competitive price. Already the GV60 is a deal among EVs and luxury SUVs. It offers more for the money while sticking closely to its promise of true luxury.
US News and World Report ranks it in the top 3 luxury electric SUVs for the new model year. AutoGuide gave it the Electric Vehicle of the Year Award, and it earned the JD Power APEAL Award in 2023. Edmunds calls the 2024 “simply one of the best EVs on sale.”
Car and Driver gave it a coveted Editors Choice Award. Their GV60 review praises its well-judged ride-handling balance and its quick charging.
Motor Trend calls it fun, noting its whimsical quirks that add to both functionality and personality. They like its quick acceleration, one-pedal driving, and improved track manners.
Its cousins, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6 have their merits but they can’t compete at the Genesis level. Meanwhile, BMW and Mercedes-Benz command legacy pricetags. Striking the right balance, the GV60 makes the strongest case for your automotive dollar.
Exterior Design
The 2024 GV60 has a distinctive look and character. A signature Cress Grille and clamshell hood anchor the sleek design. Modern aspects such as unique LED headlights add to the luxurious look. Its good looks help bring it attention on the road or at the curb.
Advanced and Performance trims wear a special Vision Roof. that helps open up the cabin. A laminated windshield and side windows block out road noise.
Sensors and camera systems hide in plain sight, ready to assist with everything from parking maneuvers to lane changes. Emphasizing convenience, Genesis GV60 features include a power liftgate, auto-defogging windshield, and rain-sensing wipers.
Interior Genesis GV60 Features
This electric vehicle achieves its luxury look by integrating soft touches, handsome detailing, and modern technology. Drivers stay informed via a 12.3-in digital cluster and 14.5-in touchscreen.
GV60 cockpits provide a 14-way power chair, and 4-way power lumbar. Smart Posture Care helps fight driver fatigue. Ergo Motion massage and a power-adjustable extension add more ways to stay comfortable.
The front seat passenger enjoys a 12-way power chair with power-lumbar support. Both seats use memory features to position the chair for easy entrances and exits.
These seats are power-heated -- and more importantly for Phoenix drivers -- power-ventilated. These aspects are what sets the Genesis apart from the Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6, Ford Mustang Mach E and other common electric cars.
With 101.1 cubes of space, the second-row provides remarkable legroom. These passengers have their own AC vents, USB ports, and center armrest.
Performance
Why is the GV60 considered a high performance SUV? The secret is its dual-motor setup. This powertrain gives it impressive horsepower and quick 0-60 mph acceleration. Plus a rear-mounted electric motor provides all-wheel drive to ensure safety on different surfaces.
Adding to this equation, this luxury EV has an adaptive suspension system. A luxurious ride quality defies this EV’s speedy attitude.
In fact, the GV60 cranks out 314 horsepower and -- this is the best part -- generates up to 448 lb-ft of torque. That’s like having a V8 without the weight or gas fumes.
Even better, the GV60 Performance AWD powertrain cranks that up to 429 horsepower. When the situation calls for it, the driver can hit the boost mode. That pushes output to 438 horsepower. Again, these are V8 numbers without the drag of a heavy engine or an expensive fuel bill.
Range and Charging
If your emphasis is on driving range, the GV60 RWD edition has you covered. This single motor powertrain can go 280 miles on a single charge. Advanced AWD models can go 248 miles.
More importantly, this electric vehicle has 800-volt architecture -- instead of just 400 volts. This means that it can actually use an ultra fast charger. In just 18 minutes, DC fast charging boosts the battery from 10 to 80 percent.
And what about overnight charging? Some electric luxury SUVs take 9 to 10 hours. The 2024 Genesis GV60 achieves a full charge in about 7 hours.

Safety and Technology
Genesis has all the tools needed for safer, less stressful driving experiences. The EV earned a 2024 Top Safety Pick Plus. The new model year added more airbags to the rear for a total of 10.
Adaptive cruise control (ACC) works with navigation to be even more precise and safe. Taking things further, HIghway Driving Assist is a semi-automated system that coordinates ACC with lane following and lane keeping tools.
Even without these automated systems in play, the driver has significant driver assistance. Blind-Spot Collision Avoidance watches for trouble and helps the driver correct steering. An emergency autobrake can respond to front and rear obstacles.
Keeping the driver informed more naturally, the head-up display uses augmented reality tech. Parking difficulties are a thing of the past with the automated parking system and a 360-degree camera display.
Biometrics keep things easy for owners while making things hard for thieves. Your car investment is protected by fingerprint and facial recognition.
Conclusion
Whether this would be your third EV or your first, you can be sure that the GV60 will meet every expectation. This is a luxury electric vehicle that doesn’t ask you to compromise on any point.
No other EV can offer this level of quality or its unparalleled Genesis ownership benefits.
Best of all, you don’t have to wait for it to arrive. Schedule a test drive and discover how the 2024 GV60 matches your expectations.
