In the ever-competitive segment of midsize SUVs, the presence of the 2023 model year edition of the luxury model Genesis GV80 stacks up its trims against the stalwarts of the show like the Mercedes-Benz GLE Class, the BMW X5, as well as the Lincoln Nautilus model series, shared the Willow Grove Genesis dealer.
Performance Tweaks
Presented in three unique trim levels, the 2023 model year lineup of the Genesis midsize SUV model series GV80 starts with a powerful lineup of powertrains. You can drive the 2023 Genesis GV80 with a 2.5L Turbocharged Inline-4 engine working under the hood in combination with an 8-Speed Automatic transmission which is offered at the base trim models. The said powertrain is capable of throwing out 300 horsepower and 311 lb. ft of torque while gifting its drivers a buttery-smooth acceleration. Thanks to the intelligent driving dynamics that enable the said model to pick up a speed of 60 MPH from a standstill within 6.1 seconds. With this powertrain, the 2023 Genesis GV80 models can tow up to 6,000 pounds. The 2023 Genesis GV80 models can be ordered as AWD models, with one can also install the more power generating 3.5L Twin-Turbocharged V6 engine that pairs the same 8-speed automatic transmission but to push the horsepower to 375 and the torque to a tall 391 lb. ft of torque, to attain an acceleration speed of 60 MPH much within 5.3 seconds.
To uphold its reputation as a first-row luxury automaker, Genesis equips its 2023 model year edition of the GV80 models with the right set of driving dynamics, like pairs of adaptive dampers that come as a standard configuration in the Prestige package.
To ensure a hazard-free driving experience, Genesis also installs a bunch of new technology features that assist the driver with a forward-looking camera in order to read the condition of the road surface as well as the traffic. Depending upon the readings acquired by the camera, the SUV adjusts its drive settings accordingly. The drivers of the 2023 Genesis GV80 can also choose the ideal drive modes, from the five offered in a row.
The effect of the adaptive suspension can be felt instantly in the composed ride quality of the 2023 Genesis GV80 models. It surely works a lot better than the general and the standard type of suspension that we get to see in the non-luxury models in controlling the body motions of the model. The steering response of the 2023 Genesis GV80 is precise. It is also perfectly weighted to attain a solid centering on the slippery road surface.
Fuel Economy
The 2023 model year edition of the luxury SUV from Genesis, named the GV80, brings its users a happy figure of fuel economy. Equipped with the latest driving dynamics, the 2023 Genesis GV80 models score 21 mpg on the city roads and 25 mpg on the highways when driven with the standard 2.5-liter engine. Loading the SUV with the more potent 3.5-liter engine will bring down the figures to 18 mpg in the city, and 23 mpg on the highway, as the Environmental Protection Agency estimates, confirmed the Willow Grove Genesis dealership.
