Genesis has been delivering luxury cars to Knoxville drivers for years now, but it’s their first luxury SUV that has everyone talking these days. The Genesis GV70 has come out of the box strong, offering a premium luxury experience and stunning good looks that go beyond luxury to show off an elegance and attention to detail you can always appreciate. We here at Genesis of Knoxville have spent some time in the new Genesis GV70, and we’re here to deliver our verdict on what you can expect.
Impressive Performance
While you may not be getting into a luxury SUV to tackle a track day, it’s good to know that the Genesis GV70 will never have trouble getting you moving when you put your foot down. A 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 engine motivates this luxury SUV with 375 horsepower and 391 pound-feet of torque, putting it on par with sport-tuned rivals like the BMW M40i and Audi SQ5. Plus, the Sport Prestige model gives you torque-vectoring all wheel drive for enhanced cornering ability, making the GV70 feel light on its feet, despite its grand stature.
Tackling a twisty road is a joy in the GV70, as Sport mode shores up the suspension to reduce body roll, and gives you a more firm, tactile steering feel so you can feel the road beneath you. It’s a rather compelling impression of a sport car, especially given the size of the GV70, and it’s one that enthusiastic drivers are sure to love. Plus, the adaptive suspension also offers more compliant modes for a buttery smooth ride quality when you just want to cruise.
Old School Cool
Inside, the Genesis GV70 features brushed silver accents and an oval-heavy theme that makes the cabin feel like a true throwback. A 14.5-inch touchscreen quickly brings things up to date, however, while the crystal gear selector shows that no detail was too small. Heated and cooled seats are supremely comfortable, and with 21-way adjustability you’ll easily find your ideal seating position.
