Ranked #206 car in the UK · SUV (EV) · 696 units sold last year

Genesis GV60

The Genesis GV60 is the electric crossover from Hyundai's luxury arm - sharing the fast-charging 800-volt E-GMP platform with the Kia EV6 and Hyundai Ioniq 5, but with a plusher, more distinctive cabin and quirky touches like the rotating 'Crystal Sphere' gear selector. Quick, well-equipped and luxurious, with a strong warranty, it's a left-field premium electric choice that undercuts the German EVs while feeling genuinely upmarket.

The short version

34/100

Forecourt score

Value 8 · Reliability 71 · Insurance 12

The Genesis GV60 loses value faster than most cars and is dearer to run than most. Its MOT-based reliability is excellent, 80 out of 100, ahead of 71% of the cars we track. On three-year value retention it ranks better than 8% of models.

The Forecourt score blends how this car ranks against the catalogue on value retention, reliability and insurance cost (weighted 40/40/20). Higher is better; running cost is not yet folded in.

Best age to buy — around 3 years

A 3-year-old example loses roughly £6,650 a year — under half the £16,300 a one-year-old sheds. The steepest drop is behind it.

Safety rating

Euro NCAP's independent crash-test rating for the Genesis GV60, from its 2022 assessment.

5/5
TEST YEAR2022
Rating expired (test protocol superseded)

The passenger compartment of the GV60 remained stable in the frontal offset test.

Independent crash-test data from Euro NCAP. Star ratings reflect the test protocol of the year shown — newer protocols are stricter, so a 5-star from 2024 represents a higher bar than a 5-star from 2014.

MOT outlook

How this model fares at its MOT as it ages — from 3,086 real DVSA test records.

MOT pass rate by age

A 3-year-old GV60 passes its MOT 92.3% of the time; by 4 years that has slipped to 90.9%. The y-axis is zoomed to this model’s range so the trend is readable.

Longevity

Not enough older examples yet to gauge longevity.

Survival by registration year

Each point is one registration cohort. Older cars on the left, newer on the right. A flatter line means the model holds up over time; a steep drop means cohorts disappear from UK roads faster.

Composite of MOT pass rate, defect prevalence and cohort survival from 2,956 tests — medium confidence.

MOT outlook

Insufficient MOT history at this car's reference age — too few tests to compute a reliable percentile.

Things owners say

  • 01800-volt E-GMP architecture means very fast charging - shared with the EV6 and Ioniq 5.
  • 02Plush, distinctive cabin and strong equipment; the performance versions are seriously quick.
  • 03Rarer than the German rivals, so check residual expectations; the long warranty aids used confidence.

Safety recalls

Manufacturers occasionally issue safety recalls to fix a fault free of charge. You can check whether the Genesis GV60, or your exact vehicle, has any outstanding recalls on the official DVSA service.

Check on GOV.UK

Opens the Driver & Vehicle Standards Agency recall checker. Choose the make, model and year of manufacture — no registration needed.

Theft risk

A general indicator from UK 2025 theft data and this car’s characteristics — not a prediction for any one vehicle.

Whole-car theft

Higher

Desirable SUVs like this are relay-theft targets — keyless entry can be exploited from the driveway in under a minute.

Parts theft

Lower

As an electric car it has no catalytic converter, so the most common parts-theft vector doesn't apply.

Worth doing

  • Keep keys in a Faraday pouch and away from the front door to block relay attacks.
  • A visible steering lock is a cheap, strong deterrent on a frequently-targeted car.

Clean-air zones

Whether driving a Genesis GV60 into a UK clean-air zone will cost you anything. Rules use the same Euro standard across most zones — petrol from 2006 and diesel from 2015 onwards are exempt; pure electric is always exempt.

Company car tax

What HMRC's Benefit-in-Kind charge looks like if you ran this Genesis GV60 as a company car, by tax year and income-tax band. Calculated from a CO₂ of 0 g/km, using £61,000 as the P11D value.

EVs sit at the bottom BIK band — currently 3% — so this is one of the cheapest ways to take a company car.

Tax yearBIK %Tax @ 20%Tax @ 40%Monthly @ 20%Monthly @ 40%

P11D value is approximated from the latest new price; the exact figure on your tax code will depend on options fitted. The 4% diesel surcharge applies only to non-RDE2 (pre-2021) diesels — we assume RDE2 compliance for current models. Bands and rates from HMRC's Autumn Budget 2024 confirmation through 2029/30.

Common questions

Genesis GV60, answered

Is the Genesis GV60 ULEZ compliant?
Most petrol Genesis GV60s from 2006 and diesels from September 2015 meet the Euro standards for London ULEZ and other UK clean-air zones, so they are generally exempt from the daily charge. Pure-electric versions are always exempt.
What insurance group is the Genesis GV60 in?
The Genesis GV60 sits in insurance group 33 of 50. Your actual premium still depends on age, postcode, annual mileage and no-claims history.
Is the Genesis GV60 reliable?
Our reliability score for the Genesis GV60 is 80 out of 100 (excellent), derived from DVSA MOT records.
What economy does the Genesis GV60 get?
Expect roughly around 3.4 miles per kWh for a typical Genesis GV60, based on official figures and our running-cost model. Real-world figures vary with driving style, load and conditions.
What are the common problems on the Genesis GV60?
On the Genesis GV60, the issues that come up most by mileage include Tyres & wheels, Driver's view and Brakes. The section above breaks down each one with its typical mileage, repair cost and severity.
How many Genesis GV60s are on UK roads?
About 2,358 Genesis GV60s are currently taxed and on the road in the UK, from DfT vehicle-licensing data.

Common questions

Genesis GV60, answered from the data

Is the Genesis GV60 reliable?
The Genesis GV60 scores 80/100 on Forecourt's MOT-based reliability measure. That is computed from 3,086 real DVSA MOT test results.
How much does a used Genesis GV60 cost?
A 2023 Genesis GV60 with around 27,681 miles is worth roughly £26,100 today (typical range £22,400–£29,800). Dealer forecourt prices sit higher and part-exchange offers lower; newer or lower-mileage examples cost more.
How quickly does the Genesis GV60 depreciate?
A new Genesis GV60 typically loses about 50% of its value over the first three years, then depreciates more slowly. Buying at three to five years old avoids the steepest part of the curve.
What insurance group is the Genesis GV60?
The Genesis GV60 sits in insurance group 33 of 50 — the more expensive end of the scale. Exact premiums depend on the trim (some versions sit a few groups higher or lower), your age, postcode and no-claims history.
What goes wrong on a used Genesis GV60?
The most common age-related issues we track for the Genesis GV60 are: tyres & wheels (typically around 60k-100k miles, £80-£500 to put right); driver's view (typically around 60k-100k miles, £60-£300 to put right); brakes (typically around 30k-60k miles, £150-£500 to put right). A full service history and a recent MOT with no advisories are the best protection.
What does the Genesis GV60 cost to run?
Expect around 3.4 miles per kWh, £195 a year in road tax, about £290 for a standard annual service. The full cost-of-ownership table above breaks this down per year and per mile for the exact year and mileage you choose.
