236 Miles Of EPA Range At A GV60 Price

The 2023 Genesis Electrified GV70 is one of the latest all-electric cars available in the United States, which might become also the most popular electric Genesis.

The car recently entered production at Hyundai’s plant in Montgomery, Alabama and is expected to enter the market in the next few months. Local production is crucial for the Genesis Electrified GV70 as it opens the way to the $7,500 federal tax credit (we are waiting for official confirmation about that from the IRS, which lists all eligible models on its website).

In terms of specs, the Genesis Electrified GV70 is an electric version of the GV70, but it utilizes a lot of components from the Hyundai Motor Group’s E-GMP platform – including a 77.4-kilowatt-hour (kWh) battery and a dual-motor, all-wheel drive powertrain (2x 160 kW for a total of 320 kW / 360 kW in boost mode).

The model has not appeared on the EPA website yet, but according to Genesis, its EPA combined range will amount to 236 miles (380 km). That’s a result comparable (slightly lower) to the E-GMP-based Genesis GV60.

In terms of energy consumption, Genesis’ website says that in the EPA combined test cycle, the Genesis Electrified GV70 requires 91 MPGe: 370 watt-hours per mile (Wh/mi) or 230 Wh/km.

As always, a strong point of the South Korean manufacturer is that its new battery packs are capable of recharging very quickly. According to the specs, fast charging from 10 to 80 percent of state-of-charge (SOC) might take just 18 minutes.

The price of the Genesis Electrified GV70 starts at $65,850 before the destination charge, which is unknown at the moment. Assuming $1,125 (the same as in the case of GV70 and GV60), the cost would be $66,975.

However, if we include the $7,500 federal tax credit (if it will be confirmed), then we are talking about an effective starting price of $59,475.

That’s very interesting because the Genesis Electrified GV70 would be effectively priced at a similar level as the GV60, which is not eligible for the incentive and starts at $60,415. Sounds like a small internal competition within the brand.
