2025 Genesis GV70 revealed, Australian launch due later this year

The updated 2025 Genesis GV70 has been revealed today, marking its first styling and equipment update since launching in late 2021.

Set for an Australian debut in the second half of 2024, the refreshed GV70 medium SUV gets subtly updated styling with a new “double-layered” chrome banding in the G-Matrix Crest Grille and larger intakes in the lower bumper.

There’s also new MLA (Micro Lens Array) technology in the otherwise unchanged slender “Two-Line” headlights – all bringing the midsize SUV in line visually with its recently refreshed big brother, the GV80.

New-look 19-inch wheels feature at the corners, while the Sport package gets 21-inch alloys and a “dark chrome” finish to the rear diffuser and muffler tips. All models also get a new camera module at the rear to deliver a digital centre mirror experience.

The biggest upgrade comes inside, with the addition of an expansive new single-piece 27-inch OLED display in the dash, again taken from the larger GV80.

Buyers should note, however, that like the updated GV80, this new display is unlikely to bring access to wireless Apple Carplay and Android Auto.

When will the updated Genesis GV70 come to Australia?

The refreshed 2025 Genesis GV70 will go on sale in Australia in the second half of 2024, with local pricing and details to be confirmed closer to its launch.

The GV70 is seeing good sales growth in 2024, with 214 examples registered year-to-date (end of March), compared to 138 for the same period in 2023.

It’s still well behind legacy rivals, however, with Lexus moving 1478 Lexus NX SUVs year-to-date, followed by the BMW X3 (773), Audi Q5 (574) and the Mercedes GLC (589 wagon, 267 Coupe). The Tesla Model Y remains dominant, however, with 6835 sold over the same period.
