The crossover coupe is one of the most polarizing trends among car enthusiasts, but that doesn’t seem to be slowing attention from luxury SUV shoppers. While it sacrifices an essential part of the SUV’s acronym, the more style-forward versions of these crossovers and SUVs do give shoppers something different. Joining the updated GV80, the GV80 Coupe slashes away some cargo area and ditches a row of seats from its three-row stablemate. Unlike the standard GV80, the GV80 Coupe is only available with the 3.5-liter turbocharged V6 with or without the electronic, 48-volt supercharger. Without the e-Supercharger, this GV80 is good for 375 hp and 391 lb-ft of torque, but e-Supercharged models push that up to 409 hp and 405 lb-ft of torque.
