GV60 Canadian Deposit - Local Dealer Information & Timelines

just ordered on my parts department's recommendation Continental IceContact xtrm winter rubber, they sound pretty new so no real reviews. My usual go to are Blizzaks, good tires but typically aren't as grippy after your second winter. I am hoping the Continentals last a little longer, plus they seem to pander to EVs on their website. That said not sure what makes them EV special.
I think its to do with weight capacity. Evs are generally alot heavier then their ICE equivalents.

It's mostly marketing, but I suspect the most significant benefit of EV-focused tires is lower rolling resistance, which may assist with range. The concerns about tires managing increased EV weight are overblown. A GV60 loaded with passengers and gear would likely be several hundred pounds lighter than a Nissan Armada with a full compliment.

The Michelins I have as my winters are not 'EV' tires, yet each is rated for a ~2000lb load, so can handle nearly twice the weight of the GV60.

I am sure that may be part of it but just about any SUV or light truck tire will meet the weight capacity requirements. Usually an EV designation speaks to lower tire resistance for better energy economy and sometimes reduced road noise. The decreased tire resistance is a bit of black magic trick when it comes to snow and ICE rated tires because typically they work by increasing frictional resistance.

Last month in early October I went camping with my new GV60. In the dark sky without any light pollution, I was really surprised to see how reflective the reflecting strips on the upholstery actually are. This photo from my phone, without flash, reflecting the light from my "miner-style" headlight. I was also impressed with the big Genesis logo from the puddle lights but didn't take a photo of it.

I picked up the 20 inch genesis rims (the ones that usually come with the winter tire package). I'm getting a set of Nokian Haka10 EVs put on... I'll let the group know how they go. (I waffled back and forth between those and the 19 Haka10 non EV (way cheaper, but I'd like to see if the sound foam helps a bit with the noise from the studs too).

Just reporting back. We had a huge dump with snow drifts in SK this past weekend. That combined with truck drivers who insist on gunning the engine when their tires spin means there's a ton of loose snow and smooth ice.

I was actually impressed how the car did in snow mode. That said the haka 10 Ev's and the studs make it almost feel like I'm driving on pavement, great grip and responsive handling.

There's a bit of noise, some tire but mostly studs that are audible with the radio off and on bare pavement. Turning on the radio or travel on snow fixes that!

The 20 inch genesis rims themself are a nice straight black, the shop lamented they weren't as cool as the ninja star 21s :D.

I got THE phone call earlier today, my GV60 will be delivered on Monday November 14th.

Final timeline is:

June 28thDid not askNovember 2022
July 11th - Road testDid not askSeptember 2022

October 4thIn productionExpected delivery by mid December 2022
October 19thAt port in VancouverExpected delivery week of Nov. 14th
November 9thCar arrived at dealershipN/A
November 14thDeliveryN/A

So, if you want to guesstimate your potential delivery times once your order is placed, you can expect the following for canadian orders:
  • A decrease of about 25 - 30 ranks per month;
  • About 3 weeks transit time between the factory in South Korea and the port in Vancouver;
  • About another 3 weeks transit time between the port in Vancouver and the dealer on the East Coast;
  • Not more than a week (3 business days for me) for the dealer to prepare the car.
Hope this helps,

Mike.

Ended up cancelling my reservation this week and got my deposit back (promptly). I have received no updates since June and figured I would keep my Acura through the winter and see what is happening in the spring.

Comment as tu réussi a avoir le Rang ? Mon dealer semble jouer la carte du " je ne sais pas de quoi tu parles" quand je lui demande le rang... et quand j'envois un message sur le site de Genesis... avec la meme question... c'est lui tabar..... qui me repond.

Jai finallement pu commandé la mienne le 5 Mai 2022 apres avoir eu des problemes de duplicata dans leurs site web... (Genesis). Encore ajd.. jai 2 GV60 en commande dans mon profile ????

Ceci etant dit, Je n'ai pas vraiment a me plaindre car jai ete en mesure de me procurer une Mustang Mach E GT extended Performance 2022 en 1 journée le 9 Aout 2022... livré le 11 Aout 2022 chez Jim Key a Orlean (Ontario)... ben.. je dis... "me procurer" c'est plus le Pony a ma femme, que je lui empreinte jusqua ce que Genesis se déniaise... et me livre ma voiture 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Une chose est certaine... jai fait +/- 10500kms depuis que nous l'avons eu .... et le montant total d'electricite pour ceux ci donne +/- 325$ comparativement a +/- 3500$ d'essence... Ouais... Hydro Quebec la... ils sont ben fin 😁

Stvhull,

(I will go in english if you don't mind so more folks can chime in if required)

Do you really have two active orders? You can have more than one vehicle saved on your profile, but does it read COMMANDES ACTIVES above each one of them or does it say VÉHICULES SAUVEGARDÉS?

Your dealer certainly knows your rank. I got it about 3 weeks after my deposit, when I asked the question by e-mail. Here's what he sent me on April 13th:

Genesis Canada nous a fait parvenir hier les mois de de production associés aux commandes émises.

Dans votre cas le véhicule sera produit uniquement en 2023 et votre rang est le 263ème au total, tout modèles confondus.

So, they have a monthly list they get from Genesis Canada, showing your rang and expected production date. Ask again, and I hope you get your GV60 sooner than later.

In the meantime, enjoy your Mach E!

Michel

The Genesis West Ottawa Website clearly shows the name and e-mail of the General Sales Manager. I would send him an e-mail directly asking for my rank.
