Genesis GV60 All-Electric SUV Makes Official Debut
Genesis gave its very first all-electric vehicle the official big reveal in South Korea tonight (tomorrow for them). The GV60 SUV is built on a dedicated EV platform that, the company, promises, will maximize both range and performance capabilities.
“The GV60 is the first dedicated EV model with the most dynamic design, representing Genesis’ electrification. It will set a new standard for luxury electric vehicles with a powerful driving performance and various key features which are emotionally connected to customers.”
- Jay Chang, Global Head of Genesis brand
Genesis Chief brand officer Luc Donckerwolke added a promise that the GV60 will “provide a differentiated experience that enables interaction with vehicles in Genesis’ own caring and considerate way.” That is in keeping of course with the new philosophy, unveiled at the beginning of September, that sees the brand seeking to create a “luxury brand lineup that interacts with drivers”.

The front-end design of the GV60 features the double-line lamps we’ve seen introduced into all recent Genesis model revisions. One difference in the case of this EV is that the trademark Genesis grille moves lower down due to cooling needs specific to the new EV platform. The model is also the first Genesis vehicle to feature a clamshell hood, in fact a single panel that encompasses not just the hood but the fenders as well. Another difference involves a new wing badge, thinner than before.
