Home and Destination Charging (0 -> 100%)

Charging is possible by using a regular wall plug or a charging station. Public charging is always done through a charging station. How fast the EV can charge depends on the charging station (EVSE) used and the maximum charging capacity of the EV. The table below shows all possible options for charging the Genesis GV60 Premium. Each option shows how fast the battery can be charged from empty to full.

Europe

Charging an EV in Europe differs by country. Some European countries primarily use 1-phase connections to the grid, while other countries are almost exclusively using a 3-phase connection. The table below shows all possible ways the Genesis GV60 Premium can be charged, but some modes of charging might not be widely available in certain countries.

Type 2 (Mennekes - IEC 62196)

Charging Point	Max. Power	Power	Time	Rate
Wall Plug (2.3 kW)	230V / 1x10A	2.3 kW	38 hours	10 km/h
1-phase 16A (3.7 kW)	230V / 1x16A	3.7 kW	23h45m	16 km/h
1-phase 32A (7.4 kW)	230V / 1x32A	7.4 kW	11h45m	33 km/h
3-phase 16A (11 kW)	400V / 3x16A	11 kW	8 hours	49 km/h
3-phase 32A (22 kW)	400V / 3x16A	11 kW †	8 hours	49 km/h

† = Limited by on-board charger, vehicle cannot charge faster.

Fast Charging (10 -> 80%)

Rapid charging enables longer journeys by adding as much range as possible in the shortest amount of time. Charging power will decrease significantly after 80% state-of-charge has been reached. A typical rapid charge therefore rarely exceeds 80% SoC. The rapid charge rate of an EV depends on the charger used and the maximum charging power the EV can handle. The table below shows all details for rapid charging the Genesis GV60 Premium.

Max. Power: maximum power provided by charge point
Avg. Power: average power provided by charge point over a session from 10% to 80%
Time: time needed to charge from 10% to 80%
Rate: average charging speed over a session from 10% to 80%

Combined Charging System (CCS Combo 2)

About this Vehicle

Genesis GV60 Premium Overview

The Genesis GV60 Premium positions itself as a compact luxury electric SUV, sitting above mainstream EVs yet undercutting traditional German rivals on price and equipment. As a stylish Genesis electric SUV based on Hyundai Motor Group’s E-GMP platform, it targets tech-savvy buyers who want upscale design, strong EV specs, and cutting-edge driver assistance without stepping into Tesla ubiquity or German-brand pricing. In this Genesis GV60 Premium review, the focus is on refinement, performance, and everyday usability.

The GV60 Premium matters in the electric vehicle landscape because it blends a distinctive, coupe-like SUV silhouette with a high-tech cabin and ultra-fast charging that rivals the best in the segment. An expansive 27‑inch OLED display, advanced driver aids, and features like Boost Mode and electronic limited-slip differential (on higher trims) show Genesis’s design and technology philosophy: quiet, effortless performance with a luxury-first feel. For shoppers comparing electric SUVs and crossovers, the Genesis GV60 Premium offers a compelling mix of range, performance, and premium features that help it stand out in a crowded EV market.

Genesis GV60 Premium Performance and Driving Experience

The Genesis GV60 Premium uses a dual-motor all-wheel-drive setup delivering around 314 hp and strong, instant torque, giving brisk acceleration that feels more than adequate for daily driving. With Boost Mode reserved for the top Performance trim, the Premium model is tuned for smooth, confident power delivery rather than outright track pace. Genesis quotes as little as 4.0 seconds 0–60 mph in the most powerful configuration, so the Premium sits just behind that in outright speed while still feeling quick in real-world conditions.

On the road, the GV60 Premium benefits from a low center of gravity and balanced weight distribution. The steering is precise, and the suspension offers a refined, controlled ride that suits its luxury brief. The sophisticated AWD system constantly shuffles torque between front and rear for secure traction in wet or snowy conditions. Overall, the driving experience is quiet, composed, and upscale, with enough performance to entertain without sacrificing comfort.

Specification	Value
0-60 mph (0-100 km/h)	~4.5–5.0 sec (Premium est.)
Top Speed	151 mph / 243 km/h (gov-limited, Performance)
Power Output	~314 hp / 234 kW (Premium)
Torque	~446 lb-ft / 605 Nm (Premium est.)

Genesis GV60 Premium Range and Battery Specifications

For 2026, all Genesis GV60 variants gain a larger 84.0 kWh lithium-ion battery, improving range and efficiency. In rear-wheel-drive form, the GV60 can reach up to 306 miles of range, while dual-motor AWD trims like the Premium and Performance are rated lower due to extra power and weight. The AWD Performance model’s EPA range is about 252 miles; the Genesis GV60 Premium typically sits between those extremes, depending on wheel size and equipment.

In real-world driving, most owners can expect the Genesis GV60 Premium real-world range to land near 240–260 miles in mixed use, with climate control use, high speeds, and cold weather capable of trimming that. The GV60’s efficiency, roughly in the 90–100 MPGe band for AWD configurations, translates to competitive energy use for a luxury electric SUV. Driving style, temperature, and terrain all play critical roles, so highway-heavy or winter driving will lower actual results compared with the official Genesis GV60 WLTP range figures in other markets.

Range Metric	Value
WLTP Range	~280–300 miles / 450–480 km (market dependent, est.)
EPA Range	up to 252 miles / 406 km (AWD Performance)
Real-World Range	~240–260 miles / 386–418 km (Premium est.)
Battery Capacity	84.0 kWh (usable close to this figure)

Genesis GV60 Premium Charging Times and Options

The Genesis GV60 Premium supports ultra-fast DC charging on an 800‑volt architecture, allowing 10–80% in about 18 minutes on a high-power station. That puts it among the quickest-charging EVs available, similar to the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6 that share the same platform. Peak DC charge power can reach up to about 350 kW on compatible chargers, though real-world speeds depend on charger capability and conditions.

At home, Level 2 AC charging (up to 10.9–11 kW) will refill the GV60 Premium overnight, typically in around 7–9 hours from empty to full on a 240V wallbox. Level 1 (120V) is only a backup, adding range slowly and best used for occasional top-ups. The GV60 Premium is compatible with major public charging networks through CCS connectors, and available vehicle-to-load (V2L) functionality lets you power external devices and equipment from the battery for camping or emergencies.

Charging Method	Time	Speed
Level 1 (120V)	35–45 hours (0–100%)	~1–2 kW
Level 2 (240V/7kW)	~11–12 hours (0–100%)	~7 kW
Level 2 (240V/11kW)	~7–9 hours (0–100%)	~11 kW
DC Fast Charge (10-80%)	~18 min	up to 350 kW

Genesis GV60 Premium vs Competitors

In a Genesis GV60 Premium vs Tesla Model Y comparison, the Genesis emphasizes interior luxury, refinement, and build quality over raw efficiency and charging network dominance. Against the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6, the GV60 Premium shares similar EV specs and charging performance but adds more upscale materials, a quieter cabin, and additional standard tech. Compared with European rivals like the Audi Q4 e-tron, the Genesis GV60 Premium offers faster DC charging and more distinctive styling, making it a strong alternative for buyers seeking a compact luxury electric SUV with character.
