How the specs compare

This comparison sets the 2024 Genesis GV70 Electrified against the 2025 Volvo V60 T8 Recharge. They sit in different categories — SUV and wagon — which makes the packaging figures as important as the headline performance. One uses a battery-electric powertrain and the other a plug-in hybrid system, so range and consumption figures need to be read in that context.

2024 Genesis GV70 Electrified carries the longer listed range at 455 km, against 78 km for 2025 Volvo V60 T8 Recharge. Test cycle, temperature, wheel size and charging conditions can materially affect these results, so only figures measured on the same basis should be treated as directly comparable.

Their listed towing capacities are equal at 1,800 kg. 2025 Volvo V60 T8 Recharge is 46 mm longer overall.
