Genesis GV70 vs Hyundai Tucson

What's the difference?

The Genesis GV70 Electrified Signature Performance has had a meaningful update, and it’s not just a light refresh. 

This latest version brings significant improvements to technology, safety, and design.

With only one grade available, this review looks at whether it’s the smart choice for anyone wanting to step into a luxury electric medium SUV.

For the first time in Australia, the mid-sized Hyundai Tucson is being offered with a hybrid powertrain – which combines its spritely turbo-powered engine with a fuel efficiency-improving electric motor. And it might be enough to swing you to becoming a hybrid fan.

The new powertrain makes the Tucson a proper competitor against Australia’s darling, the Toyota RAV4 but the Nissan X-Trail e-Power and Kia Sportage remain strong rivals.

This week I’m family-testing the mid-spec Elite Hybrid with the N Line option pack to see how the newly updated Tucson handles family life.
