    The GV70, introduced by Genesis in 2022, is a midsize SUV with seating up to 5. With standard all-wheel drive (AWD), it handles mud, snow, and sand with ease. Having better than average EPA (miles per gallon) for its class, it reduces fuel costs and pollution. The Genesis GV70 has exceptional horsepower for its class, packing substantial oomph. Genesis offers a 3-year, 36,000-mile basic warranty, and a 5-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty on its lineup.

    The 2022 Genesis GV70 is above average compared to all vehicles.

    Comparison to all vehicles.  This plot shows RSC safety scores on the horizontal axis vs. the number of vehicles with each safety score (depicted by bar height and percentages at the bottom). Colors reflect vehicle safety, ranging from red (not that safe) to green (safer). For reference, a score of 0 implies a 0.15% chance of driver death (13% chance of driver injury) over 15 years, and a score of 100 reflects a 0.016% chance (1.4% chance of driver injury). The 2022 Genesis GV70 has a score of 86, implying a 0.033% chance of driver death (3% chance of injury).

    We estimate that the 2022 Genesis GV70 has a vehicle lifetime fatality chance of 0.0335% and a vehicle lifetime injury chance of 3.8214%, meaning the average driver has a 0.0335% chance of dying in an accident if they drive the car under regular conditions for fifteen years, and a 3.8214% chance of being injured.

    Compared to the average vehicle, the 2022 Genesis GV70 is 28% less likely to result in a fatal accident. Compared to other suvs, the 2022 Genesis GV70 is 18% less likely to result in a fatal accident.

    Active safety features greatly enhance occupant safety by reducing the likelihood of a crash. The following active safety systems are included even on lower trims/versions of the 2022 Genesis GV70: Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), Lane Departure Warning System, and Blind Spot Monitoring.

    Another advanced safety feature --- while not cutting edge --- can still improve vehicle safety. Standard side mirror turn signals alert others of your intention to turn or switch lanes allowing them to react accordingly, which can prevent accidents caused by not seeing a vehicle in the blind spot.

    But it is about as safe as many comparable models.
