The Genesis GV60, launched in August 2021, is preparing for a facelift according to the latest spy shots captured by our colleagues at ShortsCar, with production expected to start in February 2025 in South Korea, with a U.S. launch anticipated for mid-2025 as a 2026 model year product.
UThis update might not bring significant body or feature changes until its debut. The GV60’s design, known for its futuristic shape and unique aesthetic, may not see design alterations for the 2024 model year, including wheel designs or color palette changes.
It competes with models like the Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron and the Lexus RZ, offering a mix of performance, technology, and luxury, including a distinctive interior with innovative features like the Crystal Sphere gear selector and advanced safety systems.
The Genesis GV60 offers two powertrain configurations, both featuring dual motors and all-wheel drive. The Advanced AWD version produces 314 horsepower and 446 lb.-ft. of torque, while the Performance AWD variant increases output to 429 horsepower (483 hp in Boost Mode) and maintains the same torque.
It uses a 77.4 kWh battery, supporting fast charging that can replenish the battery from 10% to 80% in about 18 minutes with a peak rate of 350 kW. The Advanced AWD model has an EPA-estimated range of 248 miles, and the Performance AWD model has 235 miles.
It is still unknown whether the updated GV60 will receive updates in the powertrain in form of more efficient electric motors or a higher density battery pack.
Pricing for the 2024 Genesis GV60 model could start around USD 60,000 for the Advanced AWD variant.
