The rear-wheel-drive base powertrain consists of a single electric motor producing 225 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, supported by an 84 kWh battery with an EPA-estimated range of 306 miles. All-wheel-drive configurations offer 314 horsepower or 429 horsepower.
The GV60 features the ccNC infotainment system, which includes a 27-inch OLED display integrating the digital gauge cluster and central touchscreen. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, with Bang & Olufsen audio on select trims. The 2026 updates comprise the increased battery capacity, the single-pane 27-inch display replacing previous dual screens, an NACS charging port for access to Tesla Superchargers and IONNA networks, and Highway Driving Assist 2 with lane centering.
