Genesis has announced the updates to the US-spec 2026 GV70 and Electrified GV70, which are slated to arrive in the first half of 2025.
The updates are not that big, but the exterior gets a new front fascia with a redesigned grille and headlights. The Electrified GV70 also gets a new charge port. The GV70’s face also gets a new skid plate design. Lastly there are new 19- and 21-inch wheel designs and updated turn signals at the rear.
Inside the biggest update is the new 27-inch display that integrates the gauge cluster and the infotainment system. Genesis has also enhanced the voice recognition controls to make it easier for the driver to adjust the settings.
On the safety front the driver assistance features have been updated with a new steering wheel hands-on detection system, improved lane assist and the automatic parking assist that now has diagonal parking capabilities.
Lastly a new Terrain Mode has been added for those times when you have to drive in snow, mud or sand.
The GV70 is available with either a 300-hp 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine or a 375-hp 3.5-liter twin turbo V6. The fully electric Electrified GV70 gets a larger 84 kWh battery and now comes standard with the NACS charge port and a CCS adapter.
