Genesis unveils newly redesigned GV70 and electrified GV70 SUVs
By CARSIFU | 23 November 2024LOS ANGELES: Genesis has unveiled the newly redesigned 2026 GV70 and Electrified GV70 SUVs.
Dual-sourced at the brand’s production facilities in Montgomery, Alabama and Ulsan, Korea, the newly redesigned GV70 and Electrified GV70 will arrive at North American retailers in the first half of 2025.
The exterior designs of GV70 and Electrified GV70 embrace Genesis’ “Athletic Elegance” design philosophy and have been elevated with enhanced details, such as a dual-weave mesh radiator grille and iconic two-line headlamps.
The interior has also been improved in both models to create an enhanced experience for drivers and passengers.
“GV70 is our most popular model in North America, and we’ve welcomed over 85,000 customers into the GV70 family in just three short years,” said Genesis Motor North America chief operating officer Claudia Márquez.
The exteriors of the 2026 GV70 and Electrified GV70 showcase various intricate yet bold details.
The GV70’s front fascia includes a redesigned G-Matrix Crest Grille and multi-lens array (MLA) headlamps.
The Electrified GV70’s G-Matrix Crest Grille is tailored for an electrified vehicle (EV) and comes with a newly redesigned charge port.
The updated GV70 and Electrified GV70 feature Genesis’ iconic two-line headlamps equipped with micro lens array (MLA) technology.
The front end has been enhanced with a bolder skid plate design, creating a robust stance that is complemented by extended air intake grilles, creating a uniquely sporty appearance.
The interiors of the new GV70 and Electrified GV70 infuse high-tech sensibility with Genesis’ distinctive Korean-inspired design principle, the Beauty of White Space.
The all-new 27-inch OLED display integrates the cluster and infotainment system into a single expansive horizontal layout.
The newly redesigned GV70 boasts a range of additional features that deliver an elevated driving experience.
The available Bang & Olufsen surround system with Beosonic technology provides rich, immersive sounds through 16 speakers.
Triple-zone fully automatic HVAC delivers an improved in-cabin experience for the driver and all passengers.
The vehicle comes with two powertrain options: a 2.5L inline 4 turbo gasoline engine producing 300 horsepower and a 3.5L V6 twin turbo gasoline engine capable of 375 horsepower.
GV70’s comfort and stability has been enhanced through the introduction of Highway Body Motion Control which controls front and rear dampening forces when accelerating or decelerating, while the existing Road Preview feature uses forward-facing cameras to read the road surface and control the vehicle’s Electronically Controlled suspension to optimize comfort and minimize impact.
The Electrified GV70 features a new charge port that improves access and convenience for customers.
The charging port door now has an electric motor which can be opened and closed more easily.
The Electrified GV70 is also equipped with a larger 84kWh high-capacity battery that will offer more range.
