Genesis GV70 Electrified vs Lotus Eletre

Side-by-Side Specs

Charging Speed

The Lotus Eletre has the higher published DC charging figure at 350 kW, which is roughly 46% 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 2 minutes quicker than the Lotus Eletre at 20 minutes. On a road trip, that difference adds up over multiple stops.

Range and Efficiency

The Lotus Eletre has a WLTP rated range of approximately 590 km, which is roughly 135 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 Genesis GV70 Electrified consumes 208 Wh/km, compared to 220 Wh/km for the Lotus Eletre. That means the Genesis GV70 Electrified 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 Lotus Eletre has approximately 109 kWh of useable battery , while the Genesis GV70 Electrified has approximately 80 kWh.

Which One Should You Choose?

The Lotus Eletre has the higher published DC figure at up to 350 kW, but the Genesis GV70 Electrified has the shorter published charge time at approximately 18 minutes versus approximately 20 minutes. On road trips, published stop time matters more than the headline kW number alone.

For AC charging (home wallboxes, workplace chargers, and public street chargers), the Lotus Eletre supports up to 22 kW, compared to up to 11 kW for the Genesis GV70 Electrified. In Europe, many public chargers are 22 kW AC, so this difference can matter at those locations if the higher AC figure is fitted on the car you buy.

If you mostly charge at home or at work and care more about daily driving costs, the Genesis GV70 Electrified is the more efficient choice at 208 Wh/km. Lower consumption means lower electricity bills over time.

For maximum range between charges, the Lotus Eletre has a WLTP rated range of approximately 590 km, which is roughly 135 km more. Both are capable EVs. The best choice depends on how you charge and how far you drive.
