REVIEW: Is the Genesis GV60 Premium the sweet spot in the EV's model range? Our verdict is in...
We had expected more from the ride, given that the Premium rolls on taller tyres than the Sport Plus. It’s well controlled at higher speed but can get a little crashy around town. The likely reason is that it lacks the more expensive version’s camera-assisted adaptive dampers.
In the corners, the steering feels sharper than in the Sport Plus, although it’s still fairly heavy and numb. Thankfully, that’s no great impediment to enjoying the GV60’s balance. The E-GMP platform is naturally rear-wheel drive, and with the car's low centre of gravity and very little body roll, you can always feel that it is being pushed rather than pulled.
Cold temperatures during our testing made it difficult to assess the real-world range and efficiency. Nevertheless, an average of 2.9mpkWh during a week of consistent sub-zero weather is impressive when some similar EVs can return closer to 2.0mpkWh. The standard-fit heat pump no doubt helps with that. In more temperate weather, we’ve no doubt it would equal the EV6’s real-world 3.4mpkWh and 263-mile range. And of course the GV60 has the same 260kW charging capability.
With a bit more fine-tuning of the chassis, the standard GV60 would come very close to the perfect medium-sized electric SUV. As it stands, it’s still excellent. So it’s a real pity Genesis has given it such a dramatic price increase. It soundly beats the Kia EV6, Hyundai Ioniq 5 and the Tesla Model Y for interior quality and refinement, and it’s a better car than the Audi Q4 E-Tron andthanks to the more upmarket interior, better driving dynamics and superior charging and range.
