Quick verdict
The BMW iX3 has the higher published DC charging figure at 400 kW, but the published charge-time data matters more for road-trip stops. The Genesis GV70 Electrified is listed at about 18 minutes versus 21 minutes for the BMW iX3. The BMW iX3 is more efficient at approximately 178 Wh/km. The BMW iX3 offers more WLTP rated range at 805 km.
Side-by-Side Specs
| Spec | BMW iX3 | Genesis GV70 Electrified |
|---|---|---|
| Compared variant | 50 xDrive (Neue Klasse MY26) | AWD |
| Battery (approx.) | ~108.7 kWh | ~80 kWh |
| WLTP range (rated) | ~805 km | ~455 km |
| Efficiency (approx.) | ~178 Wh/km | ~208 Wh/km |
| DC fast charging (published) | up to 400 kW | up to 240 kW |
| 10-80% charge time (approx.) | ~21 min | ~18 min |
| Max AC charging | up to 11 kW | up to 11 kW |
| DC connector | CCS2 | CCS2 |
Charging Speed
The BMW iX3 has the higher published DC charging figure at 400 kW, which is roughly 67% higher than the Genesis GV70 Electrified at 240 kW. In practice, that figure only tells part of the story. The charging curve, battery temperature, and state of charge all affect how quickly your car actually charges.
For the published fast-charge window, the Genesis GV70 Electrified is listed at about 18 minutes, which is 3 minutes quicker than the BMW iX3 at 21 minutes. On a road trip, that difference adds up over multiple stops.
Range and Efficiency
The BMW iX3 has a WLTP rated range of approximately 805 km, which is roughly 350 km more than the Genesis GV70 Electrified at approximately 455 km. WLTP is a standardized lab test. Expect your actual range to be lower, varying with speed, weather, terrain, and driving style.
Efficiency matters more than battery size for daily driving costs. The BMW iX3 consumes 178 Wh/km, compared to 208 Wh/km for the Genesis GV70 Electrified. That means the BMW iX3 uses less energy per kilometer, which translates to lower charging costs and fewer charging stops on longer drives.
A more efficient car does not always mean more range. Battery size plays a role too. The BMW iX3 has approximately 108.7 kWh of useable battery , while the Genesis GV70 Electrified has approximately 80 kWh.
Which One Should You Choose?
The BMW iX3 has the higher published DC figure at up to 400 kW, but the Genesis GV70 Electrified has the shorter published charge time at approximately 18 minutes versus approximately 21 minutes. On road trips, published stop time matters more than the headline kW number alone.
Both cars support 11 kW AC charging, so home and workplace charging speeds will be similar.
If you mostly charge at home or at work and care more about daily driving costs, the BMW iX3 is the more efficient choice at 178 Wh/km. Lower consumption means lower electricity bills over time.
For maximum range between charges, the BMW iX3 has a WLTP rated range of approximately 805 km, which is roughly 350 km more. Both are capable EVs. The best choice depends on how you charge and how far you drive.

From Finn, engineer: Charging specs alone do not tell the full story. Real-world charging speed depends on battery temperature, state of charge, and the charger itself. These comparisons use manufacturer-published data. Approximate values only.
