Premium SUVs are big business, but some manufacturers have stolen a march on their rivals. In particular, German brands Mercedes-Benz, Audi and BMW have built strong contenders in their respective GLC, Q5 and X3 models, while Porsche’s Macan remains the most impressive car in the segment despite its advancing years.
Add in competition from Volvo, Lexus, Land Rover and Jaguar, and customers are clearly spoilt for choice.
Nevertheless, South Korean brand Genesis is hoping to upset the apple cart with its new GV70 SUV, which is here to give the established brands a bloody nose. It’s undoubtedly a very good car, but will Hyundai engineering, a luxurious cabin and appealing driving dynamics be enough to make up for the relatively unknown badge on the front?
And can it really compete with German SUV royalty?
