Genesis has facelifted its charming mid-sized all-electric GV60 for the first time since its 2021 launch, and the big news is that it gains a bigger battery, a Virtual Gear Shift (VGS) and a Drift Mode. Yes, a Drift Mode.

It can be enabled by holding both paddle shifts simultaneously for three seconds, unlocking the feature and sending the rear wheels into slidey mode. As for the VGS, it’ll disengage the regen braking and simulate a traditional gearbox to improve driver engagement.

And that’s not all. In its quest to make the GV60 more performance-y (and efficient), Genesis has added stronger four-pot brakes which pack its latest 3.0 regen technology. It’ll use the car’s various safety systems to predetermine how much brake force to apply, optimising energy levels.

Energy levels now conducted by an even bigger 84kWh battery (up from 77.4kWh), delivering a maximum of 348 miles in the two-wheel-drive cars. A 10-80 per cent recharge is completed in 18 minutes at a 350kW fast charger.

No word on changes to the powertrain line-up, so we’re expecting the previous three options to stay put. They include ‘Premium’, ‘Sport’ and ‘Sport Plus’, with the 483bhp/516lb ft dual-motor AWD Sport Plus leading the line with a 0-62mph run of four seconds flat. Genesis will also throw in an e-diff with that one.

As for the cosmetic changes, the GV60’s redesigned front bumper features a more three-dimensional look, fancy headlamps with Micro Lens Array technology (nope, us neither), and fresh 20/21in five-spoke shoes.

A reworked grille now sits lower than before and has a straighter shape to it, flanked by boomerang-like air vents out wide to give the nose a more chiselled appearance. All these changes drop the drag coefficient rating down to 0.28Cd, which, if you aren’t familiar with drag coefficient ratings, is rather good.

There are as many as 14 body colours to choose from across matte, metallic and pearl finishes, and you’ll get a colour-matched rear diffuser, wheel arches and bumper inserts.

The interior still looks contemporary and stylish, and Genesis has topped it up with an updated 27in infotainment unit (same size as before) as part of a large panoramic screen, now repositioned to give the cabin a more spacious feel.

Other noteworthy features include a 17-speaker Bang & Olufsen stereo system and a range of entertainment services, like Netflix and Disney+. The GV60 will also benefit from OTA updates as standard now, and don’t worry, that gorgeous crystal sphere toggle unit on the centre console stays put.

Pricing is set to start at just under £55k when the facelift goes on sale in July.
