I have a 2024 GV70 and took it on a long cross country trip and was impressed by the driving quality and handling. However there are several issues that concern me. 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. I have owned at least a dozen new cars and never had issues like this occur so early. My last was a Accura RDX. At 48,000 miles no issues. I should have researched the the GV70 more before purchasing. The dealer is waiting for ordered parts and their service has been great. I think they are a bit embarrassed with the cars problems

2024 Genesis GV70 Sport System Malfunction

Bought a brand new 2024 Genesis GV70 Sport Prestige. Only had it for about 4 hours before having to bring it back to the dealership. I went out to dinner with my family and about an hour or so afterwards, I started the car just to see a bunch of flashing warning lights on my dashboard and a message saying that the cameras were without any signal. Basically, all of the electronic features had somehow malfunctioned. The navigation system had no signal. The radio did not work. My blinkers didn’t even flash on the dashboard. Upon getting in contact with a sales representative, we were told that we would have to wait until Monday and that there was nothing that could be done because it was the weekend. We had to drive it back to the dealership while the car system was in failure. Couldn’t even see what speed I was driving at because of the malfunction on the dashboard. It was pretty heartbreaking driving off of the lot in a beautiful, brand new car only to find it malfunctioning just a couple of hours later. We were told that it may be an issue with the battery, but after researching it seems like more of a wiring issue. I have never heard of anything like this happening from any other high quality, luxury brands. I don’t think Genesis will keep my business, to be honest. For a $60,000 car, there’s no way that this should be happening. It’s almost as if the manufacturers are not performing system checks before authorizing these vehicles for sale. It appears that reliability may be somewhat of an issue with this brand. Please beware of this manufacturer. As a first time customer, this is extremely disappointing. This was such a let down. Not sure that I can trust this brand. Looks like we got a brand new $60,000 lemon.

DO NOT BUY THIS CAR

If the title doesn’t relay the message… DO NOT BUY THIS CAR. I purchased a brand new 2025 GV70 in September. No miles on it - I drove it off the lot. Drove it for 3 months and then one day my dashboard, speedometer, all the “tech” stopped working. When I dropped it off at genesis they said they would need to replace my “cluster” and it will only be 2 weeks. Flash forward 2 months, I am still without my car & still without answers. I have to leave a minimum of 4 voicemails each day to even get someone to call me back & give me an update. Paying $60k for a car only for everything to stop working 3 months later and have to BEG for an answer is absolutely ridiculous. This LOOKS like a luxury car but let me tell you it is NOT one. Keep in mind the entire time I did have my car, the Apple car play only works if you have it plugged in. “Works” is also an exaggeration. It would consistently skip while playing music to the point where you would have to unplug, let it reset and try again, MULTIPLE TIMES. So many issues with the tech and system - this car is not worth the price. Save yourself. Do not buy this car unless you enjoy throwing away money & enjoy spending numerous hours going back and forth between service calls begging for an answer.

I give it a four star because I don't believe there's the perfect car. Every vehicle is perfectible and this is an example of that. First with the negatives that make me give this precious SUV only 4 stars: The seats: They are rock hard! Not a deal breaker but be cognizant that the seats are super firm. They are highly configurable and that helps tremendously as well as the massage feature for the driver but, firm they are. On the Prestige Package they come with a mesh insert that pretty much covers 50 percent of the seating surfaces so, yes, you upgrade to leather only to get half of the seating surface covered in fabric. I always opt for leather or vinyl seats because they're easier to upkeep than fabric and they are easier to keep clean as well. So I'd say, keep this in mind if you have small children and or pets. Now with the positive: EVERYTHING ELSE. I loved the buying experience. I was hesitant to set foot at the Genesis dealership for all the bad rep that I see online but my experience was very comparable to what I've dealt with with Lexus. I love the interior quality, fit and finish. I also love most of the features that I actually use on a daily basis. I love the looks, the paint finish (metallic black). The vehicle is quiet and the ride is super comfortable despite the firmer seats and bigger wheels. The 2.5 offers plenty of power and you save at the pump too vs the 6 cylinder. I also love: the fact that it has distinctive looks vs the X3 or the GLC300. The long warranty, the free maintenance for 3 years and the valet service. Keep this vehicle on your list of premium SUV's. It made sense to us and we are loving it 3 weeks and 3000 miles into our ownership. Yes, 3000 miles in 3 weeks. We just drove it from California to Texas and back.

We've never owned a luxury vehicle of any kind so we really wanted to treat ourselves with this purchase. Because this would be our most expensive vehicle purchase by far, we compared and tested many 5-seat luxury SUVs. All had some good points but the GV70 checked more boxes than any of the others. We've now owned our 2025 2.5T Sport Prestige for close to a month and absolutely love the performance, the drive quality, the quiet cabin, the excellent audio system and the luxurious appointments. We're in the Sierra Nevada foothills so we've taken several drives "up the hill" on winding mountain roads and 26% grades, in elevations from 2000 to 10,000 feet, and temperatures up to 110°. The GV70 has handled everything we've thrown at it with competence and poise. There have been no issues whatsoever - we've enjoyed every minute we've spent in the Genesis. Are there any downsides? Well, the GV70 does feel rather heavy on tight mountain turns. A BMW X3 would handle the twisties with a little more balance, but at the expense of ride quality. An Audi Q5 would return better fuel mileage. A Lexus NX350 may be more reliable over time. But every one of these compact SUVs cost more than the GV70 Sport Prestige when comparably equipped, and they don't do as many things as well as the GV. No car is perfect so the GV70 won't get 5 stars from me but 4.7 stars? ABSOLUTELY!

Best Car I've ever driven

When I made the decision to buy a compact luxury car, I cam to this edmunds.com to check the rankings as I always do prior to purchasing. To my surprise I saw a Genesis GV70 as the best in this class on here. I wasnt sure how a car like that beats out the GLC, Q5, NX, X3 and RDX for that spot. My curiosity led me to test drive all of these cars. Over a period of 1 month I drove all of these starting with the GV70 and back to the GV70. When I test drove it the second time I knew immediately that I wasnt going back to any other car. It just had the right combination of sporty, elegance, looks and luxury that I wanted. It did everything right. Then came the purchasing experience. I went online to build it and the price at build was the same when the car was delivered after 6 months. I had the best dealership experience ever. No hustling, no markups, everything was super transparent and they threw in a tone of accessories for free. I have owned this car since September 2022 and I just love it so much. I recently flirted with the new GLC but after watching the edmunds.com comparison video I decided to stick to my G70. Love it!!

Fabulous car. I got the 2.5 advanced. The 300 hp is plenty enough power for me. Peppy and handles great. For more spirited driving just use the sport driving mode but it will get a little less mpg. I generally just use the eco drive mode. Economy is still plenty of power and have been getting around 27 mpg during my normal driving of half city and half highway. Purrs along freeways at 70 mph like it is hardly working at all. Surround view monitors are excellent. Fit and finish of the car are top notch. Auto opening tailgate works great, just stand at the back tailgate with the keys in your purse or pocket and presto, she beeps 3 times and opens right up for you. I would recommend getting at least the advanced trim level which gets you a panoramic sunroof, heated steering wheel, aluminum trim with spin brush pattern, leather seating, blind spot view monitor, surround view monitor, parking distance warning both forward and reverse (beeps as you approach an object, becomes solid beep when very close), reverse parking collision avoidance, rear occupant alert, and wave line backlit trim (very nice glowing light around the trim that looks really good at night). Blind spot view monitor is fantastic, it displays a camera view of your blind spot right on your dash when you touch your turn signal. Automated cruise control with distance control when used with lane centering turned on and the car almost drives itself. Another neat feature is the haptic steering wheel warning (steering wheel will vibrate if someone drives behind you backing out of a parking space). It may also work if you get to close to a car or changing lanes, but I don't want to test that feature out. Everyone compliments the looks of the car and asks questions about it. Neighbors asked me to take them on a test drive. I finally decided to indulge myself with a gorgeous car and I am glad that I did.

Been shopping around for a while looking for the right car for my wife. Looked at the G70 but there was a GV70 in the showroom. Instantly impressed and knew it was the right vehicle for us. The power of the 3.5L v-6 is impressive! It handles great and is loaded with features. The infotainment system is full of features. The entire inside of the vehicle has lights everywhere that change color. The seats have infinite adjustments with a massage feature. The sound system is amazing! The leather interior is well made and upscale. Honestly the perfect vehicle for us! Fuel economy averages about 22mpg which is terrific for 375hp! Our car insurance doubled from the 2022 Honda CRV we were driving so that was a bummer. Wireless Apple car play was supposed to be active on the 2025 model but it’s not. Apparently there’s an update expected in a few months. We did have an issue with a parking sensor that was loose and fell inside the front bumper a day after we bought it. Made an annoying sound that wouldn’t stop. Took it back to dealer the next day and service manager fixed it but said “it didn’t snap in” so it’s possible it may happen again. 4.7 stars. Can’t give 5 stars due to sensor issue on new vehicle but it drives AMAZING! Hope it lasts us a long time. We love everything about it. Very impressed!

Great looks, great ride, and great performance but you need to be a computer whiz or engineer to make almost everything on the infotainment system to work. The owners manual is too dense. A simpler version--Genesis GV 70 for Dummies. My only serious complaint is the map at night. The screen turns black and doesn't show street or road names. At dusk, the screen turns darker but roads and streets are identified. Whoever designed the map system should try using it at night.

I purchased a 2025 GV70 in june 2024. From the beginning I had all king a tramission error messages. I called Genesis Customer service many times. The customer service was really bad. I wrote letter to the CEO and othe upper managment people at Genesis USA. Finally Iwas able with help from my dealer to trade in the old car with 1640 miles driven for a new 2025 GV in January. I thought my problems will be over. Well, that was a wrong thought. Now the car has about 200 miles and I cannot get the connected services to work. Again I keep calling OR WRITE customer service daily. I wrote again to the CEO etc but I cannot use the navigation. The frustration that I experience is absolutelty terrible. The excuse now it that "engineering is working on it". In 7 months I had 2 BRAD NEW GV70 AND EACH HAD IT'S PROBLEMS.

Just rolled 3000 miles in my ‘25 2.5 sport. Love this vehicle. Easy to enter and exit, but drives as nice as my TLX. Love the look the way it drives and the features that came on board. The lowest rating Id give is on the biometrics. Takes too long to switch between drivers. Outside of this the car is flawless.

SUV is fun to drive but Hyundai has been unable to get the GV 70 to connect to its services. I paid 70k for a vehicle they can’t seem to fix. It has been 5 weeks since I reported the problem and all I get is we need an engineer to solve it. Worst car buying experience I ever had. This is the sixth Hyundai vehicle I’ve purchased will be the last.
10 STARS!!

Naples, FL Genesis, best car dealership experience eva, period! I got a $60,000 Yeti cup with a dozen fresh chocolate chip cookies, and they gave me a free 2024 Genesis GV70 Sport Prestige to go with the cookies. To top it off, the Yeti and the cup-holder are a perfect match! Ask for Arlington, he is AWESOME!! :) Personally, I have owned luxury BMW, Porshe, Audi, Land Rover...none compare to the driving experience of this vehicle. My choice: snow white with the red wine interior. Pity the poor drivers who pull up next to me, and are only embarrassed by end result (and this has happened several times, already). The 2024 GV70 Sport Presige is fun to drive, and remarkable achievement in styling and engineering. Go out and treat yourself. In the end, you'll be thrilled that you did. :) P.S. I was pulled over the other day (no ticket). The police officer was so taken by the interior of this vehicle. I now find myself looking forward to coming and going, even making making excuses to go out for a JOY RIDE!! :)

After 25 years of being Lexus owner I decided to try something else. Love the Genesis so far and can’t believe the ride is better, quieter and lots more options. The only negative so far is lacking in storage for the front seat. The technology has a learning curve but I think will be attainable. I haven’t taken a long trip yet but so far I am happy with my decision.

I have a 2024 GV 70 Adv 2.5 and I love it. I downsized from a 2020 Limited Palisade which I also loved. It’s quite agile and fun to drive. The look of the car is sleek and stylish. Get lots of compliments on it. The drive is smooth and road nose is minimal with exception to really bad roads. It handles really well in all driving conditions and especially open roads. Super fun in sport mode but I only use it if I am trying to quickly navigate in difficult traffic. I carry my granddaughter in the back and it can be a tad snug with the car seat. Seats are comfy. Can see out of it well. Safety features are truly worth the money. They help with I park and drive. I find them very accurate. Would recommend this car to anyone.

We (wife and I) bought the GV70 about 6 months ago. Drove it from FL to Michigan and back. We love the styling of the exterior and interior of the car. Very sharp car. The car handles fantastic. Great ride. However, we think the technology is way over the top and pretty complicated overall. The transmission dial (PNRD) is directly below the same sized dial for managing the various aspects of the car on the center console. We have, on multiple occasions, turned the wrong dial. The paddles for shifting manually, mounted behind the steering wheel, on each side, have been accidentally touched multiple times and this is very annoying. The voice activated navigation system isn’t nearly as efficient and accurate as my GMC Acadia Denali. It can take up to a minute for it to locate my command location, ie 1234 XYZ street City State. And often times it simply doesn’t work. If you are not technology inclined and like the basic buttons and dials for managing temperature comfort, and radio not sure I can recommend the GV70. I would strongly recommend that you do an in-depth test drive before the purchase.

I bought my GV70 in June 2025. It seemed to be a nice car. I was offered a lot of services whoch are good just for the ofering. Fpor example concierge service. Thanks god I did not pay for extra two years. Now about the car. I got multimple failure alarms on the transmission (about 6 or 7). It still is in the dealer's shop fpr a transmision replacement. They replaced several parts but nothing worked. Now I am without a car for already 3 weeks, again a brand new car. Genesis is working on buying back but it is extremely slow. Services I got from Genesis corporate are not eally good. The deal at Lake Park Napleton is fine but again I have a new car which i actualy I do not. Ladislau Hajos

Great on the front end, a disaster on the back end

I unfortunately own a 2024 GV 70. Genesis has all the bells and whistles on the front end but after you get past the surface, this company is a complete disaster. The promise of a loaner vehicle for scheduled maintenance, when requested, we found out the loaner vehicle was not really going to be available. We moved from Florida to Montana, upon our arrival we went to register the car in Montana, received temporary tags and Genesis took several months to send the title to Montana for the vehicle. Montana only provides one 30 day temp tag, leaving our car undriveable. Genesis finally sent the title to Montana while we are away, and then recalled it when we didn’t register in time (we were not home). We continue to be without a car to drive. Currently the “expediter” Sandra put us at the back of the line and will contact in a week, with no empathy for the situation. They are very good at reminding me my payment is due, not so much for customer service on the backend. Dumping this car. Buyer Beware.

Have been driving it for8 months. About 6000 miles two 1000 mile trps. Several 300 mile trips. Traded in 2017 Macan so we know cars. Quiet. Comfortable. Love the safety features which is one reason we bought it. Much quieter than macan. 28-31 mpg on trips. Trunk is great. Had to learn that you have to open driver door to open gas tank. Recently it was updared to have apple wireless. Before we had to plug in. Another reason we bought. Advanced is a must for all safety features. Lane assist, lane change warning, advanced adaptive cruise control. Great back up camera. Camera for lane changing at speedometer. Had to figure out the setting for side mirrors to automatically go in and out. Similarly had to figure out setting for digital speedometer. Love heated steering wheel and seats. Had to learn how to adjust rear seats so not bolt straight. Great safe car. Does not have quite the great steering and stick to the road as Macan. But comes close for a large suv. Comfortable seats w adjustable steering wheel.

I have owned 3 Genesis so far. The G90 being a great vehicle, except for the fact that they weren't thinking when they built the infotainment system around 3G. Now that 3G is gone, I cannot get Connected Service for this 2018. My next two Genesis are the GV70. I swear they are built by a different company, since they do not resemble the quality of the G90. Still a very good looking vehicle, but lots of annoying quirks and problems. First is the Connected Service that didn't work properly in either 2023 or 2025. No matter what setting I put for the driver's seat, when I did a remote start from the app, it would always be on level 3 cool. You can imagine what that feels like on a single digit day when you are expecting a warm seat. The passenger's seat and every other feature worked fine. Genesis Customer Care was never able to resolve that issue. After 2 years I got rid of the vehicle. Now it is someone else's problem. However, I now have a 2025 GV70 EV with a whole new set of issues. They took away the ability to turn on heated seats, which was more important than heating the cabin. They still show the ability to turn on the heated steering wheel, but that never works remotely. The remote start from the app always fails on the first try. The second try is successful. But when I get to the vehicle, I must push the start button, then turn it off, open the door, close the door and push the start button again to get the radio or warning chimes to work. Otherwise, I am driving down the road with no sounds, including backup warnings, click of the turn signal, etc. I've had this vehicle for two months now and numerous calls back and forth with Genesis Customer Care with no fix or idea as to what the issue could be. The key fob works every time, as long as you are within 30 feet. Connected Service and Customer Care is bad. As far as the design goes, I have never had any other vehicle throw up so much dirt on the door panels and the lift gate and window like the GV70. I have owned other sportback SUVs that stayed cleaner longer. And, there is another issue with the doors on the GV70 which were designed to cover the rocker panels. Because these doors are so much longer at the bottom by about 4-5" than other vehicles, you end up hitting side curbs in parking lots, landscaping and snow mounds when getting out of the vehicle. This vehicle has a problem opening the doors in deep snow. I guess the design engineers were thinking about keeping your pants clean when you get in and out, but not visualizing the bigger problem. There are some features that you will probably never use such as the remote self parking which is very complicated to use and does not do as good or quick of a job as you can do manually. Another is the fingerprint authentication which never works when you need it. There is also no sense to the digital key feature. It doesn't work all the time, and you will be stranded if you do not bring your fob, once your phone loses signal or power. I also don't like that I need the fob in hand to lock the vehicle. Very inconvenient at times. I didn't have that problem with the G90. Now, moving on to the Electrified GV70, I am really disappointed in the charging and range of this vehicle. First of all, if I charge to 100%, my onboard computer tells me that I will get 196 miles. Not the 236 that is advertised. However, I have only been getting somewhere around 115 miles. Nearly a 40-42% error. I would not feel safe traveling more than 60 miles from home at this rate. Secondly, instead of 18 minutes to charge from 10%-80%, it takes between 60-90 minutes on an Electrified America 350kW ultra-fast charger. And it makes no difference if I precondition the batteries. If you are OK with plugging in a level 2 charger at home overnight, then that should not be an issue. In my area along the Great Lakes or heading south, I would have a real issue finding enough CCS fast chargers to make any kind of trip. I am settled to the fact that this vehicle will be a grocery getter and for short trips only. If you are OK with that, then this vehicle will work for you.

If you like a great ride, smooth and comfortable, with a lot of amenities at a value price, this car maybe something you would enjoy. However, we have had nothing but problems with the software. First, the 2025 purchased has a 2022 software package. As a result, the Apple Car App does not work. Who would expect to purchase a brand new 2025 car with old software? After many trips to dealer and even speaking to Genesis Customer care, they said you would need to go to the dealer to get updated. With much patience, I went to a dealer for an appointment that Genesis customer care set up. Once I arrived, they said, you need to do yourself by purchasing at minimum a 64GB external drive and downloading the update and inserting on the car myself. I also learned that the car already has a recall on the dashboard electronics. While at the dealer, they said they would update. However, it will take at least the rest of the day, and no guarantee it will take. Unfortunately, the dealer and service at Rick Case Hyundai said they would not provide a loaner as I have an out of state license. Unbelievable. They really did not care, and blamed Genesis. Unfortunate as we were considering purchasing a second GV70 for a relative and the sales and service team at Rick Case did not care. Horrible service. Why would anyone purchase a car from a dealer that did not care about accomodating the customer and only blame the brand? Not smart....they just lost a sale and word of mouth poor advertising. To bad as we like the comfort and ride, but if your considering this car, WARNING! Rick Cass Genesis/Hyundai Atlanta service is POOR. We eventually our purchased via Kennesaw GA Genesis and cannot say enough about them from end to end. From the Manager, to the sales person, to the service people. They updated my software free of charge (yes, most dealers charge), while we purchased another GV70. A 2026 model which seems to be fine on software. If you live in Atlanta, I highly recommend Kennesaw Genesis. They are professional and courteous and care about the customer. The service manager at Rick Case Gwinnett does not.

Car is fun to drive and has all the bells and whistles you would want. However, it has been at the dealership for months as the AC just doesn't work. Went set to low, cold air comes out. If I turn it to 63 degrees, the air blows out super hot. First time at dealership they said my freon was out and I had to pay, which doesn't make sense since it blows cold air on "Lo" setting so it had freon. After multiple trips to dealership, the service desk experienced the issue first hand. After months in service, the mechanics said they couldn't duplicate which is absurd since it happens every time. Time to move on to something else unfortunately.

Love love love this car but recently turned it back in under the lemon law process. I had driven it 17,000 miles. GV70 3.5, loaded. Can't find anything I like as well to replace it with, but I also need a car I can depend on.

This suv was my first choice among all of the other competitors. After do my research, the safety features, pricing, specifications, color selection, and availability helped me to make the best decision ever. The ambient lighting adds so much zest to this luxury suv. Not to mention, during the transition from dust to dawn; you're greeted with the Genesis illuminating lights when you open the doors. All I can say is WOW, as I have already received so many compliments on my new 2024 GV70 SUV Advanced Pkg. The drive is very quiet and smooth.

I've owned the 2025, GV70, 2.5 for ~90 days and it's been a great vehicle to own. Cons: At times the tech can be a bit glitchy but it always works in the end. Pros: The vehicle has traffic aware cruise control with lane centering, which means it's kind of driving itself, while it's giving me a massage and playing my favorite music while being isolated from road noise - amazing. Oh, and the car is a work of art both inside and out.

The ride is smooth & quiet.The sound system is great.I love all the tech in this SUV. It’s really a terrific car BUT don’t expect the mpg on the sticker even if you drive in Eco mode.I think it should have wireless car play instead of having to upgrade to the higher model which is $10k more.Lastly I set my soft tap turn signal(to change lanes) 5 clicks. It keeps resetting it to 3. Bottom like it is a terrific vehicle.
Absolutely love my GV70

It’s very early days with our new GV70, but it is already clear that the car is something special. First, and possibly least important, I think it is simply the best looking SUV on the road. Subjective to be sure, so take that as you will, but I can say that friends and neighbors have made similar comments. By the way, the car looks even better in person than in photos. More critically, it possesses a wonderful balance of road comfort and handling. We are migrating from a Mercedes (and BMW before that). I drove small SUVs from both before this purchase, plus models from Audi and Cadillac. The GV70 was, in my opinion, the best of the lot. We also drove the 3.5T version. I do not believe the comparatively small performance increase (and the attendant efficiency penalty) are worth the extra money. Finally, don’t underestimate one of the ‘hidden’ ongoing costs of those aforementioned Mercedes and BMWs. The Genesis is significantly less expensive to insure. Needless to say, with only 400 miles on the vehicle, I can say nothing about longer term reliability. However, at this stage, I would give this car my highest recommendation.

This is a beautiful car in the Advanced package… except for the incredibly ugly steering wheel. Everything else is so modern but I can’t get over that wheel and won’t pay the extra 5k for sport package just to get rid of it.

My experience with the 25 GV70 has been amazing it has great mpg for a premium gas SUV and the tech is top notch. My family is all tall and there's plenty of leg room for them in the back.

I had my 2025 GV70 3.5 advance for 3 months (1200 miles). I love this car. It is quiet and very smooth ride. The car has excellent tech. I always had infiniti and the Genesis is well a above any of the infiniti that I drove. I had a problem with digital key and they fix it within a week. Excellent customer service till now.

I love the look and engineering of this car. Among the many great features of the car and the Genesis relationship, the dealer will pick up my car for servicing for three years free. I bought extra years of that service. The price for the car was about $5,000 cheaper than similar cars (and the GV70 stands up to all of them when it comes to engineering and style).
Want to turn heads????

I was happy with the test drive but like it less and less the more I drive it. It took them two months to get the satellite connection working and CarPlay is really glitchy and they keep blaming my phone (which works fine with other cars and accessories). The fly-by-wire brake feel and throttle are terrible and at 4k miles rattles started appearing.
