2024 Genesis GV70 value and specs

Genesis has simplified its GV70 range for 2024, axing its slow-selling turbo-diesel option.

While the company has yet to detail pricing and specification changes (if any) for the Electrified GV70, it has confirmed the combustion-powered range is unchanged apart from the death of the diesel.

Pricing is up by $2000 across the board, with Genesis citing increased manufacturing and transport costs.

Any orders placed from September 1, 2023 onwards will be at 2024 pricing, though orders placed before that date are price-protected – even if the delivery takes place after September 1.

The brand says it has axed the 2.2D to “reduce complexity” and “as a step towards electrification of the Genesis range”.

The 2.2D accounted for less than five per cent of GV70 sales.

Pricing

• 2024 Genesis GV70 2.5T RWD: $70,500 (+$2000)
• 2024 Genesis GV70 2.5T AWD: $72,900 (+$2000)
• 2024 Genesis GV70 3.5T AWD Sport: $85,100 (+$2030)

All prices exclude on-road costs.
