The GV60 is Genesis's dedicated EV, built on the E-GMP platform shared with the Hyundai IONIQ 5 and Kia EV6. The Performance trim sits at the top with dual-motor AWD, a Boost Mode that lifts combined output to 360 kW, and a cabin that brings out the boutique character of the Genesis brand.

What you are buying

A 77.4 kWh battery, dual motors making a combined 320 kW (360 kW with Boost), and a WLTP range of around 466 km. 800 V architecture, electrified differentials, and a cabin that uses the rotating crystal sphere gear shifter the petrol Genesis line did not have.

Cartell Assessment

The GV60 Performance is the EV for the buyer who wants something boutique and unusual. It is properly fast, exquisitely trimmed, and unlike anything else under $130k. The compromise is the size: it is smaller inside than the IONIQ 5 it shares the platform with, and the styling is genuinely divisive.

AU Outlook

GV60 AWD Performance pricing in Australia sits in the high-$120k drive-away range. The cheaper RWD trim is in the high-$100k bracket. Cross-shop is the BMW iX1, the Audi Q4 e-tron 50, and the Volvo XC40 Recharge Twin.
