The Revolutionary Genesis Feature You Never Knew It Had

Genesis electric vehicles have a Virtual Gear Shift (VGS) system that mimics an automatic gearbox. The system manipulates electric motors to provide a gradual power deployment, replicating a rev range like an internal combustion engine. It can work in automatic or manual mode, with the latter using steering wheel paddles to control virtual gears. The technology was first introduced by Hyundai in the Ioniq 5 N and has also been used in the Kia EV6 GT. Genesis models with VGS include the Electrified GV70, which was updated with the feature for the 2026 model year. The system has eight 'ratios' and aims to 'enhance your EV with a high-performance sports sensation'.
