Genesis GV70 Review
Genesis' answer the the Audi Q5, the GV70 is hoping to mix up the premium SUV market, combining a plush leather interior with dynamic driving.
The GV70 is a midsize SUV from Genesis, the luxury division of Korean manufacturer Genesis, and a rival to the likes of the Audi Q5 and the Volvo XC60.
It’s available with a host of powertrains, including a frugal 2.2 litre diesel engine and a larger 2.5 litre petrol unit with power of 300 bhp.

Whichever version of the GV70 you choose to lease, it’s a vehicle that’s pleasing on the eye and Genesis talks about a ‘minimalist’ approach both inside and out.
The exterior adopts a coupe-like SUV style, similar to the Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe, as the roofline gently slopes down at the rear.
The interior is sumptuous yet ‘free of distractions’, according to Genesis, while also boasting a full suite of sophisticated driver assistance and safety programmes. .
With the traditionally-fuelled GV70, base ‘Premium’ models enjoy a large 14.5 inch infotainment touchscreen as standard, as well as parking sensors, a rear view camera, smart cruise control and a host of danger-detecting and avoidance software.
The all-electric GV70, on the other hand, has a subtly different shell that’s more aerodynamic to reduce drag, while there’s also a strong emphasis on sustainability, with the cabin created using a host of recycled materials.
The electric GV70 also gets the Genesis ‘e-TERRAIN’ technology, which provides a smooth, stable ride, whatever the conditions under your wheels.
A fully-electric vehicle like the GV70 Electrified also translates to great news if you’re a business lease customer, as you’ll enjoy a Benefit in Kind (BIK) company car tax rate of just 2%.

In simple terms, leasing is the single most cost-effective and hassle free method of driving a brand-new car, and with Select Car Leasing you can be sure that you are in safe hands.
Connor Esberger was an extremely good contact throughout my leasing process. Very responsive and helpful. I can't thank him enough. However, the process wasn't straight forward and it made it frustrating for myself and Connor. Unfortunately the vehicle was very late in being delivered with so many bumps along the way with the Portal system incorrect and misinformation being given by others. We got there in the end however and I am now delighted with my new vehicle. I will use Select Car Leasing again and hope that it will be smoother next time and that my delivery experience is out of the ordinary.
Great customer service
Excellent service by Charlie Cooper who made the whole experience very easy and slick. The car we wanted was already reserved so we started to look elsewhere but Charlie remained on the case and contacted us when the car became available again. Would definitely recommend.
