Is there an app for the Genesis GV70E that displays the battery status while charging?

Yes you can look for the Genesis app on your phone's store!

My app is not showing the battery status. I wonder if it's Canadian

My app is not showing the battery status like yours.

It could be that, I'm from Canada. Weird they go through the hassle of having different apps for different countries, it's hard to justify the associated high maintenance.

I'm in Canada. My app looks like this with the battery charge status shown.

FYI - For those eGV70 owners who were expecting the semi-annual navigation map update to be made available in April 2024, I've just learned that the new "System & Map Update" version 18.0 will be made available for Hyundai Motor Group vehicles in June 2024. Here's the link to the mapnsoft.com/hyundai FAQ webpage that provides this info:

So here's the midcycle refresh: https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a60617770/2026-genesis-gv70-update/

I'm not crazy about the new dash which now looks like what everybody else is doing (Maybe the white background on the dials doesn't help here).

I hate the dash and the movement towards the large screens. Especially, where they moved the front, center vents to. I love the current setup in my 2023 and how the vents are "hidden" in the trim.

Gone is the oval theme, I guess we'll stick to the cars we have for as long as we can...!

Agree! If there's nothing out there that compares to my GV70 in 2 years when my lease is up, I'm just going to buy it. I still love it like the day I got it!

I don't mind the steering wheel. Lol

When I first heard this car would be assembled next to Santa Fe's and Santa Cruzes, I thought they were all on separate lines. Then I saw that they follow each other on the same line, with the robots attaching everything in the right place despite having different pieces, mounting points, not to mention entirely different platforms, and was genuinly impressed!

For those interested I have attached below the eGV70 brochure that I downloaded some time ago from the Genesis Australia website. The brochure includes a few images I have not seen elsewhere.

I'm actually keen on getting a Santa Cruz as a beater.

Since taking delivery of my eGV70 last year I have noticed that the driver's (and front passenger's) seat belt automatically cinches up/tightens a little when I/we first drive off and reach a threshold speed of 15 km/h (9 mph). I checked the owner's manual and it appears that this seat belt behaviour is a feature of the "Pre-Active Seat Belt" (PSB) operation. My wife along with most of my front seat guests in the car have noticed this front seat belt action. I think it's pretty cool that Genesis vehicles automatically cinch up the front seat belts when reaching a set speed after initially driving off.
As info, I've attached below the link to a Genesis "Newsroom" article that mentions PSB briefly and talks about other safety features to look for in a Genesis.

This is fairly common. My 2018 BMW 530e did it as well as does my current GV60P.

Interesting. Well, I never had the feature in any of my previous cars, which include a 2022 VW Tiguan, a 2018 Audi Q5 and several late model Cadillacs.

I just filled to 100% this morning, the car says the range in Eco is 432km and Sport is 407km. I've never seen such numbers so I guess they're optimistic and the first winter wasn't too rough on the battery...

One downer though, I used to be able to play with two presets for climate and keep one as a favorite (Had one for summer and one for winter), plus picking which days of the week to precondition the car, now all of that is gone from the app!
