The 2025 GV70 is a five-passenger compact crossover that Genesis makes available in two powertrain configurations: 2.5T and 3.5T. The 2.5T features a turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that delivers 300 horsepower and 311 lb.-ft. of torque.

Both engines pair with an eight-speed automatic transmission and standard all-wheel drivetrain. Their towing capacity can reach up to 3,500 pounds.
According to the official fuel-economy estimates determined by the EPA, a GV70 with the 2.5T powertrain will achieve 22 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway, while one with the more powerful 3.5T can be expected to return 18 city/24 highway.
