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.
1,100 miles in - I love the GV70

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!

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!

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.
