One of my favorite features is the Driver Attention Warning. If you’re weaving slightly or driving like a zombie, a little coffee cup icon pops up on the dashboard. It’s the car subtly telling you: “Maybe hit a rest stop before you start seeing double.” It’s like having a nagging, but well-meaning, friend who won’t let you drive drunk on exhaustion.

And if you’re the kind of person who frequently forgets to check your blind spots? The GV70 will politely refuse a lane change if it senses danger. It won’t let you make a stupid mistake. It’s like having a bouncer at a club who says, “Nope, not tonight, buddy. That car is moving faster than you think.” You can override it, but it makes you rethink your life choices first.
The “Wait, Did I Lock the Car?” Feature
We’ve all done the walk of shame back to the car to check if we locked it. The Digital Key lets you use your phone to lock, unlock, and even start the GV70. But the real magic is the Remote Start with climate control. On a sweltering summer day or a freezing winter morning, you can start the car from your living room couch. It feels like witchcraft, but it’s actually just a very clever thermal calculator.
I once used it to cool down the car before a date. When I arrived, she said, “Wow, it’s perfectly cool in here.” I didn’t tell her a computer did all the work. I just smiled and said, “I’m a thoughtful guy.” The GV70 made me look like a hero, and it didn’t even ask for a thank-you. That’s advanced.
