GV60 too odd? The more conventional 490hp electric Genesis GV70 is pretty good, too.
Genesis can now at least claim to offer both, though even with Luc Donckerwolke heading up design - and with cars like the stunning being created - it would be a monumental stretch to call either electric SUV a knockout. The 60 might be a bit too weird for its own good, while at the other end the 70 seems almost nondescript. The standard, smaller 19-inch wheels surely won’t do it any favours, either.
Mercifully for both those who write about electric cars and those who buy them, there’s only one GV70 Electrified available: the 435hp, 77kWh Sport. No choice of battery pack or motor here, or the option to add something transformative from the extras list should the mood take you. The 70’s power looks competitive when the iX3 costs similar money for less than 300hp, and certainly feels it on the road, especially when the 10 seconds of 490hp overboost is deployed.
There are Eco, Comfort and Sport drive modes, the latter taking a leaf out of the boost book and actually dropping the seat squab lower as an accompaniment to a sharper throttle and heftier steering. In all of the modes the GV70 has little aspects that make it stand out as not just another electric 4x4, with a nicely tuned throttle pedal and sensible steering weight. Ultimately, it all gets a bit ragged when pushed, if never to the degree a combustion engined version would.
