What the Genesis GV60 is
Wikipedia (opens in a new tab) describes the GV60 as a battery-electric compact luxury crossover SUV made by Genesis since 2021, North American model years from 2023, built in Ulsan, South Korea on the Hyundai E-GMP platform, with 77.4-kWh and 84-kWh batteries and 350-kW, 800-volt charging, plus a GV60 Magma performance variant. The 2026 GV60 is rated 90 to 110 mpg-equivalent by the EPA, about $700 to $850 a year in fuel, and Kelley Blue Book base prices are $54,020 for the Standard, $60,900 for the Advanced and $73,370 for the Performance.
Best and worst GV60 model years
Federal data lists 8 recalls on the 2023 GV60 with 58 complaints, both the most of any year, covering the electrical system, seat belts, powertrain and structure, 5 recalls and 14 complaints on the 2024, 4 recalls and 5 complaints on the 2025, and 1 on the 2026.
REREV (opens in a new tab) says the 2023 GV60 is rated less reliable than other cars from the same model year by Consumer Reports and has been recalled 8 times, the highest count in the model's lineup, that the 2024 is also rated much less reliable by Consumer Reports with 5 NHTSA recalls, and that the 2025 gets the same much-less-reliable rating from Consumer Reports' subscriber survey, though it notes owner-survey data can lag and a 2025 car in warranty still has Genesis factory support behind it. CarWhere (opens in a new tab) says 2023 and 2024 stand out as the years to avoid, while the 2025 shows the cleanest federal record.
Choosing a year
The federal recall record and Consumer Reports agree the 2023 needs the most VIN scrutiny, and the 2025's lighter recall count is the better federal-data pick even though its Consumer Reports survey score has not caught up yet.

Method: recall counts and their affected components come from the NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation: Recalls API, queried by exact make, model and model year. Complaint counts come from the NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation: Complaints API, same query pattern. Data pulled 2026-09-04.
Known gap: the NHTSA complaints API did not return data for Genesis GV60 model year 2026 when queried for this page: the request itself failed upstream, not returning a genuine zero. Those years are marked "not available" above instead of shown as clean; recall counts for those years are unaffected and come from the separate recalls API, which returned data for every year listed.
Check open recalls by VIN for one particular vehicle.
Q01Is there a best year to buy a Genesis GV60?
Recall count alone can't answer that: it says nothing about a specific vehicle's price, mileage, accident history or maintenance record. What federal data can say: 2026 carried fewer recalls than this model's own average, while 2023 carried more. See the model-year table on this page for the exact counts and what they cover.
Q02Which Genesis GV60 model years should I watch for recalls?
The 2023 Genesis GV60 has 8 federal recalls on file, most commonly affecting electrical system, seat belts, powertrain. Always confirm the open/completed status of every campaign for the specific VIN: a recall on this list may already be repaired on the vehicle in front of you.
Q03Which Genesis GV60 model years have the cleanest federal recall record?
The 2026 Genesis GV60 has 1 recall on file: below this model's own average of 4.5. A shorter list on file as of this page's data pull is not a guarantee against a future recall.
Q04What are common recall-related problems on the Genesis GV60 by model year?
2026: electrical system. 2025: electrical system, backup camera, structure. 2024: electrical system, backup camera, structure. 2023: electrical system, seat belts, powertrain, structure.
Q05Why do some Genesis GV60 model years show "not available" for complaints?
The NHTSA complaints API did not return data for Genesis GV60 model year 2026 when queried for this page: the request itself failed upstream instead of the count genuinely being zero. Recall counts for those years are unaffected; they come from a separate NHTSA endpoint that returned data for every year listed.
