Equipment few rivals have, on either carShowHide
Drivetrain
The Genesis Electrified GV70 uses a Electric Motor producing 360kW and 700Nm of torque, sent through a single speed reduction gear (front and rear) to a AWD layout. It covers the 0-100km/h sprint in 4.4 seconds.
The Jeep Wrangler responds with a Petrol I4 Turbo making 200kW and 400Nm, paired to a 8-speed automatic driving all four wheels. It gets to 100km/h in 9.3 seconds.
The Genesis Electrified GV70 has the clear power advantage at 360kW vs 200kW. In the 0-100 sprint (manufacturer-claimed), the Genesis Electrified GV70 is 4.9s quicker. For most buyers, the way each car feels day-to-day matters more than outright acceleration.

Where each one leads

How to read this page. Prices, specifications, ANCAP ratings, warranty, the CarSorted Score and the verdict come from our records for the grades shown, sourced from the manufacturers' Australian documents, and change when those records change; the date each was last checked is printed under the headline. Prices are recommended retail prices before on-road costs unless marked drive-away. A plug-in hybrid's fuel figure is labelled with its basis: with a full battery (the certified combined figure) or as a hybrid (battery depleted). Charging and running costs are estimates on the stated assumptions. Always confirm price and specification with the manufacturer or dealer before you buy. CarSorted does not accept payment for recommendations.
