The Genesis GV70 Electrified has gained a posher face and 27in OLED screen
Anyone for galaxy-inspired ambient lighting too? Oh good
Two years on from its debut, the Genesis GV70 Electrified is getting a revised multi-crest grille and ornate new headlight signatures as part of its mid-cycle refresh. Still handsome, we’d say.
The reworked front bumper loses the air inlets out wide for a sharper look, while 20in twin-spoke alloys occupy the flanks. There’s extra chrome garnish out back and (apparently) a more aero-friendly rear wing. Probably won’t push the car down like the spoiler on a GT3 RS, mind.
Inside, it’s still much the same story: very white and very grandiose. The main addition is the 27in OLED display, which combines the driving and infotainment screens into one unit and works with a new Bang and Olufsen audio system.
Fan of ambient lighting, are you? Genesis has now included a ‘Milky Way’ pattern, which we suspect mimics… the Milky Way. Space, not chocolate. Given the diamond-quilted massage seats and electronically controlled suspension, you should be snug in there.
No mechanical changes have been announced, so the all-wheel drive system and dual-electric powertrain should still put out 483bhp and 516lb ft - enough to pelt you to 62mph in 4.2s. There’s a 77.4kWh battery nestled beneath that big-boned exterior too, providing a claimed 283-mile range.
The facelifted GV70 will initially launch in Korea during the first quarter of 2025, with UK sales likely commencing in the summer.
Reckon you’d have one over a Mercedes-Benz EQC?
