Can I jam a bag o' smelly trash in there? In might squish out. There were little bags of dog poop in mine, so the squishing out would be a bad thing.It's more of a frubby.
Yes I'm well aware. Been hanging out there which is largely a ghost town compared to here. Also been hanging out on the Ioniq forum. AC failure is another big one. In fact, the Performance GV60 I test drove, the salesman warned me no AC in that car when I test drove it on a 95F degree day. My GV60 was built on 6/22/22, so hopefully I won't run into those issues. I requested the dealer not to touch the car when I took delivery, leaving all the factory plastics in and out lol. The interior plastics all had labels with dates on them, ranging from 6/18/22 to 6/22/22. Should my car be stuck with that issue, there'll be 0 community support so I'll curl up in the corner and sob ? or maybe I'll do that here
but at least I have a proper front and rear tow hook should they need to drag it out of my garage
Good luck on the car, I like the looks and will try to head over to Ct dealer that has a few Performance versions. I do want to test drive it and compare to the MME.Yes I'm well aware.

The MME definitely has a stiffer ride. The GV60 even with the suspension on sport is softer. I don't usually take corners aggressively as I'm too cheap to spend money on tires prematurely, but the e-LSD in the GV60 Performance feels artificial. While I gingerly drive up the steep curvy 25MPH road home, on two particular turns, I feel the rear end rotate. Should be fun if I took it at 45MPH, but very unnatural feeling when driving gingerly. The "performance" is strictly in acceleration, not very sporty handling at all. Motortrend just posted their GV60 review. Fastest time I've read yet with 0-60 in 3.6 and 1/4 mile 12.1 @113.2MPH.
I have about 500 miles on the car and the average MPK so far is 3.5, whereas my typical MPK on the MME was 3.7. I'm hoping it'll improve a bit as the tires break in. While on the highway I have been going faster than usual, 75-80, been in a hurry lately lol. I've always thought the MME is very quiet as far as road noise, the GV60 is even quieter. The one thing that ruins it is the surprising amount of wind noise, coming from the top edge of the windshield area. I suspect is from that extra and unnecessary piece of trim they decided to put on it.
Seems quite a bit of goodies coming to the MME, like lane change with Blue Cruise, and a member here discovered that using an F150 Lightning key fob you can open the frunk on the MME. Just when it's getting good I parted with it. My loss I guess lol.
About the frunk, yes it's a bit of a joke in the GV60. I've only actually used the frunk in the MME once, to store a watermelon within the divider that kept it from rolling so it was handy.
Edit: I wanted to add that when I first got this idea, I searched for a MME GT or Premium AWD ER first. There are cars out there but zero chance of MSRP. Yes I wanna win on both ends, sell mine and over MSRP and buy theirs at MSRP
When I went for a test drive at my local Genesis dealer, one of the four GV60s on the lot was completely dead. They could not even unlock it. Some of these issues are due to drained 12v batteries but there might be more issues.
I am going to stick with my minor annoyances with an otherwise awesome car. Especially after replacing front and rear sway bars. It finally handles like a real performance car should.
One person said it's the BMS and another said their rear inverter failed. 12V issues are known for the E-GMP cars and I'm sure folks checked that out first.
I sold to a local car broker who gave me a good offer and they even inspected and picked up it from my house. I will not say how much but you get the idea based on the offers I received. I did not choose Driveway because I heard of a few bad experiences, like low-balling you after they do the final inspection. They also wanted me to send them the title before they paid for the car which I did not want to do.
No price restriction on the sales tax exemption. Maybe you're thinking about the NJ EV rebate program which does have a price cap of $55K.
