Genesis GV60 vs Porsche Macan

What's the difference?

If someone came to you and said, “Hey, want to drop $100,000 on this new car? It looks a bit weird, it’s from a brand you’ve probably never heard of, and by the way, it’s fully electric”, I’d understand if you had a hard time coughing up the cash.

And this is essentially the ask with the Genesis GV60. Unlike BMW, Mercedes, or even Lexus, this luxury Korean brand has very little time in-market, and in Australia at least, no rich history to draw upon to lure buyers in.

If the electric era has taught us anything, though, it’s a once-in-a-generation opportunity for new names to get their foot in the door. So, is Genesis putting its best foot forward? Let’s find out.

This might be the biggest gamble in Porsche's history. It's the latest version of its best-selling car, the Porsche Macan, only this one has a very big difference.

You see, this time, it’s all-electric. There is not an internal-combustion engine (ICE) in sight. And that makes climbing into an entry-level Macan significantly more expensive than ever before.

So, will this bold shift help or hinder the Macan in Australia? And is this the country’s best all-electric SUV?

There’s only one way find out.
