It only took Genesis a few years to find its footing and produce a knockout vehicle in the form of the 2024 GV70. We're not saying it's a perfect vehicle, but it's a high performer across the board and presents a value that's unmatched in the small luxury SUV class. The GV70 is fast, comfortable, practical and stylish.Read full review

2024 Genesis GV70 Review

by the Edmunds Experts

Pros

Spacious interior with comfortable seating
Composed ride and handling
Costs thousands less than other luxury SUVs
Lots of cargo room

Cons

A few interior controls can be inconvenient to reach or use
Could use more interior storage for small items

What's new

More standard equipment included on higher trim levels
Part of the first GV70 generation introduced for 2022

Overview

Just a few years after launching as a stand-alone brand in 2017, Genesis sent its GV70 into the liveliest segment of the luxury car market — small crossovers — and crushed it. It immediately jumped to the top of our list of favorite vehicles in its class, and to the top of Genesis sales charts. Behind that Bentley-esque grille is a sumptuous interior packed with comfort, tech and safety features that rival any of the established luxury brands. The GV70 doesn't need to be priced lower than its competitors to be appealing, but it is, making it even more attractive.

Edmunds spotlight: Freedom of choice

Configuring a GV70 is simpler than speccing most of its competitors. Other brands offer lengthy à la carte option menus and assorted packages, but if you're buying a GV70, you pick an engine, a trim level, colors, and that's it. The only additional options are accessories like a cargo net or wheel locks. But the price increases between the GV70 trim levels are small enough to think of them as one or two big options with a smattering of freebies. It's only if you just want a single feature from within the highest equipment level, and don't care about anything else, you might feel frustrated with this trim structure.

Competitors to consider

The small luxury SUV class is overflowing with compelling choices across the spectrum, from the luxurious Audi Q5 and Mercedes-Benz GLC to more athletic vehicles like the Alfa Romeo Stelvio, BMW X3 and Jaguar F-Pace. But we find the Genesis GV70 strikes an awfully appealing balance — so long as you're not in the market for a fire-breather like the pricey performance derivatives each of those competitors offer but the GV70 does not. Read our Expert Rating for the full picture on what makes the GV70 so good.

edmunds TESTED

Rated for you by America's best test team.

Performance

8/10

How does the GV70 drive? The GV70's enjoyable driving experience starts with its smooth and robust powertrain. The turbocharged V6, which is what we tested, provides easy and accessible power from just about anywhere in its rpm range. In our testing, the GV70 accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in just 5.3 seconds. The automatic transmission delivers smooth shifts when you're just tooling around, but it can also crank up the aggression with crisp, positive shifts when the roads get fun.

Around turns, the GV70 isn't as sporty as a Porsche Macan, but it responds intuitively and predictably to your inputs. Braking is predictable too, with a natural-feeling pedal stroke that makes it easy to stop smoothly. All in all, it is a quick and smooth SUV but not the athlete that some others are.

Comfort

8.5/10

How comfortable is the GV70? Comfort is a big part of what makes the GV70 a great SUV. The front seats are highly adjustable, and our test vehicle's seats also had heating, ventilation and a massaging feature. The rear seat cushions are also pretty comfy and offer a generous amount of recline. An adaptive suspension (standard with the V6) adjusts itself based on the road conditions ahead. The ride isn't quite as plush as in the larger Genesis GV80, but it strikes a commendable balance between comfort and compliance.

The climate control has a dedicated touchscreen that's easy to use. The seat heating and cooling are nearly unmatched for their intensity, and the heated steering wheel was equally as impressive. A quiet cabin rounds out the luxury experience with dual-pane windows keeping a lot of the wind and ambient noise at bay. There was only some low-level road noise on particularly textured surfaces.

Interior

8.5/10

How’s the interior? The GV70 has a slightly different interior design than other recent Genesis models and is better for it. The infotainment control knob, in particular, is much easier to use than the GV80's. The dial rotates and moves and even features a touch-sensitive surface, all of which can be used to navigate the menus. On the downside, it's easy to mistake the dial for the gear selector, which is also a dial. The touchscreen is also located a bit too far away from the driver, so you might find yourself stretching to press it.

The GV70's cabin is among the more spacious-feeling in the small luxury class. The extra-wide door openings make it easy to get in and out. We love the driving position and appreciate that Genesis makes all the main controls easily accessible for the driver. And despite the GV70's rakish body, it's actually quite easy to see out of.

Build & Price

Technology

8/10

How’s the tech? The GV70 comes with a healthy amount of modern tech. For starters, advanced driving aids including adaptive cruise, lane keeping assistance and collision prevention are all standard. Only the surround-view camera system and blind-spot warning are extra, and even then they're reasonably priced as part of a larger package. The upgraded 16-speaker Lexicon audio system is part of that package and well worth the money.

Also standard is the GV70's short but wide 14.5-inch center touchscreen. It includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, but it doesn't support wireless connectivity for these systems like more and more new vehicles do.

There are plenty of power options for keeping devices juiced up, including four USB outlets, a wireless phone charger and even a 110-volt household-style outlet. The GV70's voice controls can understand a decent amount of natural speech but can only perform functions related to the navigation system, audio system and phone. Other available features include a fingerprint scanner and digital phone key, but we were unable to test their functionality.

Storage

8/10

How’s the storage? Rear cargo space is very generous at 28.9 cubic feet, which is right up there with the class-leading RDX and Jaguar F-Pace. The loading area is wide, allowing for easy loading of larger things. The rear seats can be folded flat from the cargo area, so there's no need to walk around to the rear doors. Genesis' smart trunk opens automatically based on your proximity.

Storage space within the cabin isn't super generous, but it's adequate. The center armrest bin is a decent size, and we love how the tandem cupholders stay out of the way of the driver controls. The wireless charger is deep and out of the way, so you can charge a phone on it and have another one plugged in resting on top of it in that open cubby. The door pockets are a little small and the glovebox is modest, but ultimately there are enough options.

Got kids? The spacious back seat makes it easy to install child safety seats. The anchors and top tethers are easy to access. Towing, however, is limited to just 3,500 pounds, which is well shy of class leaders.

Continue reading Edmunds Expert Rating below

Fuel Economy

7/10

How’s the fuel economy? The GV70 with the V6 engine gets an EPA-estimated 21 mpg combined. That's decent, though some competitors are slightly more efficient thanks to integration of a mild hybrid system. We ran the GV70 on our 115-mile evaluation route, and it returned an average of 20.2 mpg in heavier than usual traffic. Despite the traffic, we have a feeling that hitting the EPA estimate will be a challenge if you don't drive with efficiency in mind.

Value

8.5/10

Is the GV70 a good value? The GV70 is definitely a value leader when it comes to features, build quality and price in the small luxury SUV segment. While the interior may not quite reach the same level of finish as a Mercedes-Benz or Audi, it certainly isn't far behind. And the areas we think that are lacking — slightly tacky-looking carbon-fiber trim and touchscreen iconography that looks too similar to a Hyundai or Kia product — are pretty minor.

Then when you bring Genesis' warranty into the equation, it leaps even further ahead. The five-year/60,000-mile bumper-to-bumper and 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranties aren't close to being matched by anyone in this segment. Roadside assistance is good for five years/unlimited miles, which is a year better than most rivals. And Genesis provides free maintenance for three years/36,000 miles.

Wildcard

8.5/10

Genesis is making bold moves and it's paying off. Aside from the "crocodile overbite" hoodline that's hard to unsee, the GV70 is a striking car that catches more attention than most in its class. And it's not just the outside. The interior is a fresh and thoughtful design that looks and feels luxurious.

The GV70 mostly backs up its looks with a driving experience that's sporty enough to have fun on a backroad. The V6 engine is a gem and we're really impressed with how the transmission behaves at different ends of the comfort and performance spectrums.

Which GV70 does Edmunds recommend?

The GV70's base engine makes 300 horsepower, which should be enough for most buyers. It also saves a bundle of cash compared to the more powerful option. We'd spend the leftover dough on the Advanced trim level, which includes the Select package's panoramic sunroof (and several additional goodies) as well as real leather seating, a 360-degree parking camera, and front and rear parking sensors.

At 3000 miles the brakes were very loud backing up. The dealer told me that it needed new brake calipers. At 10,000 miles the transfer case started leaking.

NOTE: This video is about the 2022 Genesis GV70, but since the 2024 Genesis GV70 is part of the same generation, our earlier analysis still applies.

The small luxury SUV segment is one of the most highly competitive in the automotive industry, with big sales and bigger profits. The Mercedes-Benz GLC was once our go-to choice — until the Genesis GV70 swooped in and stole the crown upon its introduction for the 2022 model year.

Genesis GV70 vs. Acura RDX

The RDX is another strong value player in this class, and Acura has a similar pricing strategy to Genesis, with trim levels bundling equipment and only minor accessories available à la carte. But the RDX's only available engine is both weaker than the GV70's standard turbocharged-four and gets slightly worse fuel economy.

Genesis GV70 vs. BMW X3

The upright X3 gives occupants a better view out and passersby a better view in. They may be underwhelmed by what they see. While the X3's fit and finish is outstanding — with tight, uniform panel gaps and a comprehensively solid, high-quality feel — its staid design inside and out lacks the exuberance of the GV70.

Genesis GV70 vs. Mercedes-Benz GLC-class

The GLC highlights the limited personalization allowed by Genesis' trim-level packaging. Mercedes offers many stand-alone options, as well as nine wheel designs and six interior trim options including four woods and two metals. The GV70's adventurous upholstery menu bests the GLC's, though, with choices including black, blue and four different two-tone combinations: black and beige, black and red, blue and brown, or gray and purple.
