Overall we love our new GV70. Looks great, nice to drive.

I wish it got a bit better gas mileage and that the gas tank was larger. We moved to this from a 535i which could go more than 100 miles further on a tank. I also wish for finer control of the audio through an EQ instead of just base, mid and treble. Also the surround sound options are not available when playing music through Apple CarPlay which is a huge miss. The vehicle is very comfortable overall and super quiet. I do which the front seat bottoms were slightly softer - even with the massaging seat my bottom gets numb after just a couple of hours. The navigation system doesn't show traffic with any where near the detail of my BMW (missing on most roads outside of a major metro downtown) Lastly, I'm also noticing some odd hesitation under heavier throttle when the engine is not fully warm - it works itself out but is sometimes disconcerting when pulling out into traffic. I will mention this and see if it can be addressed when it goes in for its first service.

Excellent luxury car value

There are some features that should be standard for a luxury vehicle at this price, even though there are different trim levels. I had a list of several of them, but as usual when put on the spot, I can’t recall them at the moment. But I have owned three Genesis in total and there should be a few more features to separate it from a Hyundai or a kia.

Simply the Best

This is the fifth Genesis automobile I have purchased. Two G80's, one G90 and two GV70's. I am now in my 80's and have purchased over 100 other vehicles. Without hesitation the Genesis automobiles have been as fun to drive and reliable as any other vehicle I have owned. In addition I have found that the value of the Genesis is far better than others. And the service has been very good though not needed except for regular scheduled maintenance.

Very Pleased

Bought this almost as n impulse purchase. Looked at it on Sunday, test drove on Monday and drove it home Tuesday. Have never looked back. Very pleased with the overall soundness, handling, comfort and driveability of the GV70. Looks are outstanding.

My Gv70 is stylish, quiet and dream to drive.

Everything about my Gv70 is first class. Styling has drawn comments from strangers at service stations and parking lots. Fit and finish are excellent. It has sufficient power so that it doesn’t need constant downshifting to maintain speed when going uphill.

so so

The air in one of the tires is consistently lower than the others. The temperature on the cluster and on the screen are not in sync. There is a squealing sound from the front left side when we reverse. It sits too low to the ground, I probably would not buy it again.

Love it! Happy with purchase.

Like the size of Gv70. Solid, sit up nice in driver seat, not too big of a truck. Comfortable interior and seats. Appreciate the valet service when needed maintenance appointment. Very convenient. Only issues: 1.) software recall, but not ready to fix yet (waiting for contact from dealer when they are ready). 2.) wind whistle at driver side window or door seal.

I knew this was the car for me

I love this car! After extensive research and test driving of luxury SUVs, I kept coming back to the GV70 for its style, performance, comfort, and features. I love that it doesn't look like every other SUV in its class! The exterior is sylish and the interior colors are fun. I test drove the Lexus, Cadillac, Mazda, Infiniti, and the Genesis, and read extensive reviews from trusted sources on Volvo, Lexus, Mercedes, Acura, and the cars listed above, and the Genesis came out on top over all of them. My previous car was a 2013 Cadillac SRX, which I loved so much I would have bought it again had I not tried the Genesis. The Genesis has every luxury feature you could want and is thoughtfully designed for comfort and usability. And it is so fun to drive! It is responsive and peppy, and the driving assistance features perform excellently.

Great Combo of Luxury and Performance

I am enjoying my GV70 2.5T Sport Prestige even more than I expected to. Not only is it great-looking on the outside, but it also has the nicest interior layout and details that I have ever owned, and this is from someone whose first car was purchased in 1969! The latest technology is everywhere from the flexible and innovative infotainment system to the various driving aids and safety features. Yes, there's a lot to learn, but once it sinks in it is easy and intuitive to operate. From a performance standpoint, I have an automotive engineering background and have been very impressed by how well this compact SUV rides and handles. With the 21" tires and being based on a rear-wheel-drive platform, the turn-in on corners gets close to what you'd expect from a sport sedan. The ride is also very well controlled, firm without being harsh, and some of my misgivings about the low-profile tires have been alleviated by my experience with the car over the winter season. It also does surprising well in the snow with the OEM tires and the "SNOW" driving mode. The multiple driving modes are another well-implemented feature of the car. I haven't yet had the opportunity to really try "SPORT" or "SPORT+", but from what I've felt in the more sedate modes I'm sure that the GV70 will meet any performance requirements that I ask of it!

Very Comfortable

Very smooth ride and comfortable seats. Parking assist is very helpful while becoming familiar with the car. I like that I receive videos on how to work the car in increments and can reference them at any time. Can't wait to take it on a long trip and see how it does

Love my EV GV70

I purchased my new 2025 EV GV70 after owning and driving two cars for several years — a GV80 for my winter AWD needs and a Honda PHEV Clarity for every other non-winter day. Gone is any range anxiety I may have had prior to driving the PHEV. Once the all-EV GV70 was introduced, it was a no-brainer as I love Genesis features and styling.

Do It While You Can Enjoy It.

I looked at the GV 80, but it did not fit in my bay of After the election, I figured there would be tariffs. And after losing two close friends, what was I waiting for anyway. So, I decided to buy my new GV70 Prestige 3.5 in November 2024 before the tariffs!

Too Much Hype

I don't think that the GV70 lives up to the hype. The electronics are undependable. The touch sensitive door locks fail consistently in cold damp weather . Phones frequently fail to connect forcing you to restart the vehicle. Touch sensitive ventilation controls are hard to access while driving and force you to take your eyes off the road. Overall, I'm 50/50 on whether I would recommend this vehicle to others.

Excellent choice

The vehicle exceeded all expectations! This is the new standard. The right is smooth, transmission changes are not detectable, drivers aids are not intrusive, but very effective with driving enhancement. Apple play is easy to connect and wireless. Seating is very comfortable for the drivers and passengers. Cargo space is plenty for trips to Home Depot and other large purchases. Service support has been outstanding so far.

Comfortable and fun to drive

My first new car 15yrs and happy I chose Genesis. It’s fun to drive, handles well, and looks great. Still getting used to all the “bells and whistles”! Looking forward to the summer and a couple of road trips. Both highway and city driving. If your shopping for a new car, take a look at Genesis!

Great Fun Minus Glitches

Comfortable, quick, quiet but quirky. Electronics not very user friendly or intuitive. Lack of auto lock when leaving the car is annoying. 21” wheels unnecessarily make ride stiff and jarring on small bumps or holes in pavement. Auto wipers are inconsistent. Passenger seat should have thigh support extender. “Eyes on the road” warning is over the top. All relatively small things, but annoying in a luxury car.

Very quiet, comfortable and smooth ride.

A very comfortable, quiet and smooth ride. Finely appointed interior. Hands free driving seems competent. Drives a bit larger than what it is. I was hoping for a bit better gas mileage and acceleration from stop. Sufficient power for passing. Overall, a very nice vehicle.

Drives like a Dream

Impressive combination of style, performance, features and comfort. Just returned from our first road trip to the Berksires in MA. The trip consisted of highways and country roads involving various driving modes, specifically Sport and Comfort. The GV70 performed flawlessly, easily transitioning from long hilly stretches to sharp curves never losing its grip on the road. There was no sense of sway or lack of control. The car just ate up the road in style.
