    Talking Cars 416: Driving the Genesis Electrified GV70

    Plus, we discuss flat spots on tires

    Main theme: The Genesis Electrified GV70 is the latest EV from Hyundai’s luxury brand. Built on the same platform as the gas-powered version, the all-electric model has an EPA estimated 236-mile range and shares many of the same luxurious touches of the Electrified G80. But with a starting price over $60,000, can the electric GV70 take on competitors like the Audi Q4 E-Tron, Mercedes-Benz EQB, Tesla Model Y, and even its own GV60 EV sibling?

    Audience question: We also discuss whether a viewer’s persistent flat spots on a set of Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady tires might be a sign of manufacturer defect.
