Tires and Wheels
For better ride, handling and brake cooling the I-Pace offers optional 22-inch wheels. The GV60’s largest wheels are only 21-inches.
The I-Pace offers an optional space-saver spare tire so you can replace a flat tire and drive to have the flat repaired or replaced. A spare tire isn’t available on the GV60; it requires you to depend on roadside assistance and your vehicle will have to be towed.
Suspension and Handling
The front and rear suspension of the I-Pace uses air springs for a smoother, controlled ride than the GV60, which uses coil springs. Air springs maintain proper ride height and ride more smoothly.
The I-Pace has a standard automatic front and rear load leveling suspension to keep ride height level with a heavy load or when towing. The I-Pace’s height leveling suspension allows the driver to raise ride height for better off-road clearance and then lower it again for easier entering and exiting and better on-road handling. The GV60 doesn’t offer a load leveling suspension.
For a smoother ride and more stable handling, the I-Pace’s wheelbase is 3.5 inches longer than on the GV60 (117.7 inches vs. 114.2 inches).
The I-Pace HSE handles at .90 G’s, while the GV60 Performance pulls only .83 G’s of cornering force in a Car and Driver skidpad test.
The I-Pace HSE executes Motor Trend’s “Figure Eight” maneuver 2.1 seconds quicker than the GV60 Performance (24.8 seconds @ .77 average G’s vs. 26.9 seconds @ .63 average G’s).
Chassis
The front grille of the I-Pace uses electronically controlled shutters to close off airflow and reduce drag when less engine cooling is needed. This helps improve highway fuel economy. The GV60 doesn’t offer active grille shutters.
Passenger Space
The I-Pace has .9 inches more front headroom and .1 inches more front shoulder room than the GV60.
Cargo Capacity
The I-Pace has a much larger cargo volume than the GV60 with its rear seat up (25.3 vs. 24 cubic feet).
Ergonomics
Heated windshield washer nozzles are optional on the I-Pace to prevent washer fluid and nozzles from freezing and help continue to keep the windshield clear in sub-freezing temperatures. The GV60 doesn’t offer heated windshield washer nozzles.
In poor weather, headlights can lose their effectiveness as grime builds up on their lenses. This can reduce visibility without the driver realizing. The I-Pace offers available headlight washers to keep headlight output high. The GV60 doesn’t offer headlight washers.
