Awe-Inspiring Design of the Genesis GV70 vs BMW X5

It's all eyes on you when you drive the Genesis GV70 or BMW X5. These fierce SUVs feature a sporty, aggressive shape that lets others know you're the boss. You'll also find an eye-catching grille on both models. With the BMW X5, you get the iconic active kidney grille, while the Genesis GV70 comes outfitted with a diamond-shaped front facia.

Where these models differ is in the design choices offered with each, specifically with the selection of exterior colors. Both vehicles come with many exterior colors, but you'll find with the BMW X5 that this selection features variations of the same colors.

For example, the BMW X5 comes in four different shades of black and only a small selection of bold or unique colors. The Genesis GV70, on the other hand, offers several unique colors, such as Barossa Burgundy, Cardiff Green, and Mauna Red.

The Genesis GV70 also comes in two matte shades. This elimination of a glossy shine is only found with the Genesis GV70 when compared to the BMW X5.


The Strength Is in the Numbers: Genesis GV70 vs BMW X5 Performance

The sporty appearance of the 2023 Genesis GV70 and 2023 BMW X5 goes skin deep. Each model is outfitted with a powerful engine that surges forward with ease. Let's see how the standard engines compare to one another:

BMW X5

Engine

3.0L Turbocharged

Horsepower

300 HP

335 HP

Torque

Both vehicles offer an impressive amount of power with their standard engines. Still, power isn't everything. Having the assistance of launch control, a standard feature offered with both the Genesis GV70 and BMW X5, helps ensure the perfect start from idle, especially when you factor in the optional electronically controlled limited-slip differential offered with the Genesis GV70.

Another feature that helps boost performance output and thrills is all-wheel drive. While this feature is offered with both models, only with the Genesis GV70 does this feature come standard. So, compared to the BMW X5, you'll experience more control on tighter turns with the Genesis GV70.

Genesis GV70 vs BMW X5 Luxury Features

Both the Genesis GV70 and BMW X5 are luxury models, so you can expect a slew of premium amenities offered with each. For starters, you can choose between synthetic leather or optional leather upholstery to help give the cabin of your SUV a refined look.

Regardless of the upholstery type you choose, you'll gain access to standard heated front seats with both luxury SUVs.

While the BMW X5 stops there, the Genesis GV70 continues to offer additional standard features that are only found optionally with the X5, such as:

  • Ventilated front seats
  • Heated second-row seats
  • Heated steering wheel

When you have multiple drivers taking the wheel, a few extra minutes can be added to your commute to get the seat, mirrors, and other settings back to your preferred configuration. The BMW X5 comes with a seat and memory system, but only with the Genesis GV70 do you gain access to the available and industry-first Fingerprint Authentication System.1

A quick scan of your fingerprint and your Genesis GV70 can return to all your saved settings, including those beyond seat position and climate. The Fingerprint Authentication System can also act as a key when equipped with Genesis Digital Key.


Genesis GV70 vs BMW X5: The Verdict

When you're in the market for a luxurious, powerful, and eye-catching SUV, either the 2023 Genesis GV70 or BMW X5 fits the bill. Though, if you're looking for more advanced features and extra standard amenities, the Genesis GV70 is the way to go.
