Small overlap front

The small overlap front evaluation consists of a driver-side and a passenger-side component. If the results of the two evaluations differ, then the combined small overlap rating is equal to the lower rating.

Driver-side

Tested vehicle: 2023 Genesis GV60 EV Advanced 4-door 4wd
Rating applies to 2023-26 models

The Genesis GV60, an all-new electric vehicle built on the same platform as the Hyundai Ioniq 5, was introduced in the 2023 model year. Driver-side small overlap frontal ratings are assigned by the Institute based on a test of a GV60 conducted by Hyundai.

Side: updated test

Tested vehicle: 2024 Genesis GV60 EV Advanced 4-door 4wd
Rating applies to 2024-26 models

The Genesis GV60, an all-new electric vehicle built on the same platform as the Hyundai Ioniq 5, was introduced in the 2023 model year. Beginning with 2024 models a rear side thorax airbag was implemented and reinforcements were added to the B-pillar and front door to improve occupant protection in side impact crashes. Side 2.0 ratings are assigned by the Institute based on a test of a 2024 GV60 conducted by Hyundai.
