Genesis is gearing up for the launch of the facelifted GV60, three years after the debut of the original. The electric crossover will likely benefit from mild visual tweaks focused on the front and rear bumpers, alongside a slightly larger battery pack and a few interior updates. Genesis inadvertently showed us the facelifted GV60 a few months ago in a now-deleted video, revealing most of the scheduled styling changes. The prototype spotted by our spy photographers is fully covered in camouflage, but the holes on the vinyl wrap confirm that this is the facelifted model.

The spy shots reveal a portion of the lower bumper intake with the ADAS sensor and a honeycomb pattern, all but confirming the earlier leaks. The same applies to the revised side intakes of the front bumper that adopt a more conventional look. The upper and lower split headlights of the prototype feature six and seven LED modules instead of the existing model’s five. These could also be provisional units, set to be replaced by more modern LED graphics. Other highlights include the aero-friendly wheels and the tweaked shape of the rear spoiler. We also expect Hyundai designers to freshen up the looks of the rear bumper, and maybe add new options to the color palette.

 

The interior will likely benefit from the latest infotainment software, improving the usability of the digital cockpit. A welcome upgrade could be the addition of wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, a feature notably missing from the current model. Hyundai unveiled the facelifted Ioniq 5 last March, giving us a good idea of what to expect from the upcoming Genesis GV60 and Kia EV6. The electric crossovers share the same E-GMP architecture, so it is safe to assume that the Genesis will adopt the newer and slightly bigger 84 kWh battery pack, compared to the existing 77.4 kWh unit. This change will likely result in longer range figures, combined with potential aero improvements thanks to the “Active Air Skirt”.

There is no information about any changes to the electric powertrains, so we assume they will be carried over. However, Genesis will likely expand the lineup with the performance-focused GV60 Magma bringing more power and a sharper chassis setup. The facelifted Genesis GV60 is expected to debut in the coming months in Korea. The Tesla Model Y rival could arrive just in time for the 2025 model year in the U.S. market.
