2022 Genesis GV70

by Mike Hunter

Named MotorTrend’s 2022 SUV of the Year®, the first-ever Genesis GV70 is here to satisfy drivers’ cravings, needs and wants. Featuring incredible performance, athletic styling and advanced technology, this SUV proves that, in the end, want wins.

With class-leading standard horsepower and an available 375-hp 3.5-liter twin-turbo engine, both power plants make this SUV a true Sport Utility Vehicle. With class-leading 300 horsepower, the 2.5-liter turbocharged inline-4 cylinder powers the GV70. 

The GV70 exterior plays host to sophisticated cameras, radar and ultrasonic sensors used to make everything from Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go to available Remote Smart Parking Assist function with the simple press of a button. On the inside, a segment-leading 14.5-inch HD screen that uses Connected Routing simplifies navigation. Further enhancing every drive, the available 12.3-inch 3-D Digital Gauge Cluster offers readouts that provide dimensionality and added depth for easy readability. A full 360-degree view around the vehicle helps eliminate blind spots and avoid potential obstacles while parking.

Drivers can create a personal connection with their GV70 and start its engine with a quick tap on the industry-first fingerprint reader, when equipped with the available Genesis Digital Key. Once experienced, all other vehicle-start procedures will feel outdated.

This is the result of a relentless mission to create the perfect balance of athleticism and confidence. The attitude of GV70 is apparent the moment from its aggressive crest grille to the parabolic lines in the rear, in perfect balance. Inside, GV70 takes the same inspiration, placing the focus on the driver using flowing and curved lines, complemented by premium materials that wrap around its riders. Shaping the interior with everything from flowing lines to available spin-brushed aluminum trim, owners take control of their aesthetic with the customizable ambient interior lighting.
