2024 Genesis GV70 Summary

This isn’t the first, or even second, choice for most people looking for a premium mid-size SUV.

While rivals like the BMW X3, Lexus NX or Merc GLC sell in the thousands each year, only a few hundred Australians have chosen the Genesis GV70.

It’s quite lucky then, that this update has come along because, like its rivals, sales for this model are… well, down. 

Can a series of updates, and a big interior refresh help the GV70 fight the turning tide?

2025 Hyundai Santa Fe Summary

A big welcome to one of the first turbo-petrol four-cylinder versions of the new-generation Hyundai Santa Fe, a model that launched locally with only its hybrid variants available to our market.

While it might not satisfy the fans of the previous-gen's V6 petrol engine, it might be enough for those who have been on the fence about going the hybrid route.

This is my third time in the new Santa Fe, and each tested variant has managed to offer something different and the base petrol grade, in FWD, is no different – but does it offer enough?
