The electric version of the GV70 also includes a V2L (Vehicle to Load) feature that maintains a 3.6 kW charge, which is higher than the power source in a conventional home, allowing owners to plug in a variety of electrical appliances.

The Preview Electronically Controlled Suspension (Pre-view ECS) has been applied to provide an optimal driving experience. This suspension system can be controlled based on information gathered from the SUV’s front camera and navigation system.
