I’ll share my personal test drive impressions of various SUVs in the same price range. Can anyone explain the difference in chassis feel between the GV70 Flagship and Luxury models? If there's someone who has driven both, please provide detailed insights!
I've also tried SUVs of the same class like BBA, Volvo, and Jaguar. Personally, I think the new GLC has the best overall chassis quality, with Genesis coming in second. Genesis has the best sound insulation! The throttle response is the worst on the GLC! The X3, Q5, Genesis, Volvo, and Jaguar feel quite similar. Subjectively, the GV70 ranks in the top two for overall comfort and drivability.
PS: The Q5 feels more filtered and softer. The X3 is a bit too ground-hugging and follows the road surface too much, which I don't like. Volvo is in the middle, but it has the worst sound insulation in its class! The GLC's chassis quality is great with a solid, integrated feel, but the throttle response is really lacking! The Jaguar F-Pace has a slightly firmer chassis and a more sporty driving feel, but its downside is average noise control with some resonance, and it has the smallest rear space. Genesis offers the best overall driving experience. Even with 21-inch wheels, the suspension is really excellent, and the power delivery is smooth and responsive. The space is similar to the X3.

When I was buying a car, I didn't even know this model existed, let alone see it. Later, I did some research and found out it's actually a great car. The quality control, comfort, and power are all impressive. I'll consider it for my next car.

It's strange that my test drive experience was different from yours. The power is great, but there's no push-back feeling. The tuning is very comfortable, and there's significant body roll when cornering and lane changing. This car isn't sporty; it's just a comfortable daily driver.

I test drove the high-end model, and the chassis leans towards sporty. The electronic suspension is more responsive than Cadillac's MRC, and the adjustments between soft and hard are very noticeable. If you have the means, I recommend going for the high-end version.

GV has also made it into my shortlist for a car change by the end of the year.

As a base model owner, I suggest getting the Lexicon sound system because good audio is important. If you want better braking, then upgrade to 19-inch wheels. Not sure if all-wheel drive is necessary in Beijing. MRC is useful, but if you're opting for MRC, you might as well go for the low-end G80, since you'd have to choose the flagship model otherwise. Or, you can just stick with the base model like I did. I think the appearance is fine, except the wheels are a bit small, but everything else you need is included.

I think the Genesis has the best handling among them. I've always wanted to drive it but haven't had the chance yet.

I bought the top-spec GV70 last National Day. I test drove all the luxury brands in the same price range. Although it's a less popular car, its product strength is indeed impressive. 👍

The chassis feel of the XC60 is somewhere between the Q5 and the X3, not too soft or too hard. I really like this kind of balance. The downside is that the noise is really too loud!
