Like it so much we bought a companion G80 EV
Traded a Volvo XC90 T8 Recharge for the GV70. The Volvo was an unreliable, ill handling beast, with a really nice interior. So far, the Genesis has exceeded expectations. It gives up nothing to the Volvo on interior quality, while also being faster and better handling. Reliability is good so far. Really no complaints other than the front passenger seat should have the same massaging and ergonomic adjustability as the driver.
We shopped vehicles for several months and were disappointed to find that nearly all manufacturers remove amenities from “smaller” SUVs. There are only two of us needing regular transport, so don’t want three rows and a behemoth size vehicle. We DO want really nice heated, cooled, massaging seats, impressive vehicle performance and dynamics, as well as all other available options. Small SUVs from Mercedes, BMW, Volvo, Cadillac, Audi, Lexus were all inferior to their larger offerings. That basically leaves Genesis GV70 EV and Porsche Mayan EV that “get it”. The Porsche is really nice, but let down by an instrument cluster binnacle that gets blocked by the steering wheel, so as to obstruct things like vehicle speed. (How do manufactures not see these obvious oversights?) As such, we ended up with the GV70. No regrets. It feels like they really sweated the details. We would purchase again and highly recommend.
