Genesis is slashing prices. Again.
The end-of-financial-year discounts are extended. They’re valid until July 31, 2266. No, that’s a typo. It’s 2026.
If you’ve been eyeing the GV70 or GV80, now is the time. Petrol variants take the biggest hit. Savings reach up to $10,000. That’s significant for a luxury SUV. But it’s not all models. The discounts don’t apply to the electrified versions. You have to stick with gas.
Let’s break down where the money goes. And why you might want to pull the trigger before the clock runs out.
Why buy the Genesis GV70 now?
The GV70 is Genesis’ best-seller in Australia. It makes sense. It competes directly with the BMW X3, Mercedes-Benz GLK, and Audi Q5. But it offers more value.
The 2.5T Advanced grade starts at $80,300 before on-road costs. That’s before any discounts.
Here’s the deal on pricing for the Genesis GV70 discount deals:
- 2.5T Variants: Discounts range from $4,000 to $6,000.
- 3.5T Variants: Discounts range from $5,000 to $7,000.
Older stock gets the better cuts. If a car has been sitting on the lot a bit longer, the price drops deeper.
Under the hood
The entry-level 2.5L turbocharged four-cylinder pushes 224kW and 422Nm. It’s paired with an eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive.
Genesis claims 0-100km/h in 6.2 seconds. Combined fuel consumption sits at 10.3L/10K0m. Real-world numbers might vary, but it’s not sipping gas.
The 3.5L twin-turbo V6 is the one to watch if you want speed. It makes 279kW and 530Nm. That shaves a full second off the sprint. You get there in 5.2 seconds. Fuel usage jumps to 11.3L/60km.
What do you actually get?
Standard gear on the GV70 Advanced is solid.
You get 19-inch alloy wheels. A panoramic sunroof. Leather upholstery. 12-way power front seats that heat and cool. And that massive 27-inch display? It combines the infotainment screen and digital cluster. It looks futuristic.
Step up to Signature, and you get the good stuff. 21-inch dark metallic wheels. Adaptive high beams. A Bang & Olufsen sound system with 16 speakers. Nappa leather.
Does the GV70 Electrified get a discount? No.
It’s a single trim. Priced from $132,778 before on-road costs. No cuts here. If you want the savings, stick to petrol.
How much can you save on the GV80?
The GV80 is the bigger brother. It’s heavier. Louder. More expensive. But the discounts are steeper.
Genesis offers between $5,000 and $7,000 off eligible 2.5T models. V6 variants get $6,000 to $10,000 in discounts. Again, older stock wins.
Start price for the GV80 2.7T Signature AWD? $119,927. Before ORCs.
The V6 starts at $131,927 before discounts.
GV80 Features vs GV70
You get more metal with the larger SUV.
Standard on the GV80 regardless of engine:
- 22-inch alloy wheels.
- Adaptive dampers.
- The 27-inch combined display.
- Leather upholstery.
- Power front seats with heat, ventilation, and massage.
The V6 adds an electronic limited-slip differential. That helps with traction. It sounds fancy. It’s useful on wet days.
Want six seats? There’s a $3,000 option for second-row captain’s chairs and a fixed center console.
The GV80 Coupe
It’s a thing. A coupe-SUV. It looks sharper.
Unique 22-inch wheels. A bespoke front bumper. Flush roof rails. A rear spoiler. Inside? Carbon-fiber trim. An electrically sliding second row. Standard equipment.
It’s for the people who think boxy SUVs are boring.
Is it worth the wait?
Maybe.
Genesis recently launched the GV60 Magma. It’s an electric performance SUV. 478kW. They’re positioning Magma against Mercedes-AMG. BMW M. Audi Sport.
But the GV70 and GV80 discounts are about cash in the bank right now. The Magma models don’t have the same price slashes. Not yet.
If you need a luxury SUV and hate paying full retail price, the GV70 or GV80 petrol models are the move. Just check how long the car has been sitting. The longer it waits, the cheaper it gets.
July 2026 isn’t that far off. But inventory changes daily.
Do you prefer the coupe look or the standard shape? Does the V6 power justify the extra fuel cost? Or is the 2.5T enough for your daily drive?
The specs are there. The discounts are real. The question is just timing.
