Genesis has turned the GV60 crossover into a mountain rescue vehicle with rubber tracks instead of wheels

Genesis has unveiled the GV60 Mountain Intervention Vehicle (MIV) concept at the World Economic Forum in Davos, a specialised electric vehicle designed for rescue operations in challenging mountain conditions.

The GV60 MIV is based on the GV60 electric crossover, but has a number of modifications that increase its cross-country ability and functionality in hard-to-reach areas. The vehicle is distinguished by increased ground clearance and is equipped with additional underbody protection and rubber tracks instead of wheels.

To ensure effective work of rescuers, the GV60 MIV is equipped with advanced communication systems, including satellite communications and integration with drones for terrain reconnaissance. In addition, the vehicle has special compartments for storing rescue equipment and medical supplies. And thanks to the Vehicle-to-load (V2L) function and a power outlet, rescuers can power electric tools.

Genesis officials emphasise that the GV60 MIV demonstrates the company's commitment to innovation and sustainability by combining electric mobility with practical solutions for extreme situations.

The regular Genesis GV60 can be either rear-wheel or all-wheel drive. In the former case, the powertrain is rated at 225 hp, while in the latter case, it can be up to 429 hp.
