About the 2025 Genesis GV60
1st generation GV60 (2023-2025 in its original U.S. form), third model year and last year before the 2026 mid-cycle refresh.
Genesis positions the GV60 as a style-forward luxury EV that mixes fast charging, bold design, and unusual cabin tech with a more upscale feel than many mainstream electric crossovers. The brand leans hard into signature details like biometric entry, the Crystal Sphere shifter, and a quiet, richly trimmed interior. For most shoppers, the GV60 is the compact Genesis EV for people who want something more distinctive and more luxurious than a typical Tesla Model Y alternative.
The Standard trim focuses on distinctive design and cabin tech, including a panoramic glass roof, two 12.3-inch displays, and face and fingerprint recognition. Advanced adds leather upholstery, premium audio, and parking assistance, while Performance pairs a 429-hp AWD system with Boost Mode and upgraded suspension hardware.
