This high-spec version of the Inster city EV offers groovy design and lots of gear, but it’s tiny… and its price isn’t.

The Genesis GV70 has been named Australia’s best mid-size luxury SUV in the inaugural 2025 CarExpert Choice Awards.
It beat out the BMW X3 and Lexus NX for the title.
Genesis has only been around for a few years and has a daunting task of taking on popular European luxury brands, as well as Japanese rival Lexus.

It’s doing this with well-built, well-equipped vehicles like the GV70, backed by class-leading aftersales packages and cloaked in distinctive and upscale styling both inside and out.
The GV70 is available with turbocharged four-cylinder and V6 engines, the latter offering performance comparable to a BMW X3 M50 for close to $30,000 less.
But while it offers excellent performance, particularly in V6 guise, the GV70 doesn’t sacrifice ride quality or cabin refinement to achieve this.
An update for 2025 has further elevated the GV70, giving it even more impressive in-car tech.
Throw in five years of free servicing among its suite of aftersales perks, not to mention an equipment list that’s dizzyingly long even in base guise, and the GV70 is a deserving winner of this award.
2025 CarExpert Choice Best Luxury Mid-Size SUV
- Winner – Genesis GV70
- Finalist – BMW X3
- Finalist – Lexus NX
