For the latest Genesis G70 pricing and information: • https://www.kbb.com/genesis/g70/ • The G70 follows in the footsteps of its bigger siblings the G80 and flagship G90 sedans with the signature Genesis design language. Those stand out as the crest grille that may or may not look a tad large on this compact sedan model and the horizontal line quad-LED head and taillight design. • I love a car that has a signature so that when I’m driving down the street and see one, I instantly know what it is. I particularly like it when it’s a design that I think really works. But mostly, it’s cool because it makes me feel super smart. • Overall, the appearance gains in the athletic, elegant, and dynamic categories. Exterior, that’s one for the win column. The interior doesn’t see much change at all. The one place where it does is in the transmission area. • That’s right, a moment of silence for the 6-speed manual transmission that used to be paired with the 2.0L Turbo. It is no longer an option. I will tip my hat to Genesis for trying, but like five people bought one, seriously, so it’s our own fault. • My previous assessment of the interior stands. The seats are sport-inspired and supportive and comfortable. • As for the rear, I’m sticking to my guns here, too. There’s not a ton of room back here, but it is very pleasant as far as fit and finish are concerned, so a bigger person is going to like the way it looks while they’re trying to figure out what to do with their legs. • There are two engine options under the sexy new hood. Base models get the 2.0-liter turbo inline 4 (252 hp/260 lb-ft torque). Uh, that’s a decent number of horses for a base model. There’s also a 3.3L T that gets a twin-turbo and yowza, 365 horses and 375 lb-ft of twist feel super duper extra good. • The G70 is truly a sport sedan that doesn’t forget about the sedan part of the equation. A very well-rounded car that checks off a ton of boxes. And wow, it needs to because its competitive set reads like a who’s who of German automotive royalty. • The BMW 3 Series, Mercedes C-Class, and Audi A4. The great thing about the G70 up against those guys though is the G70 costs less. • Pricing on the base model starts at $37,525 and that’s pretty loaded. The 3.3L Sport gets a $42,100 base price but can rise quickly into the $50,000 range with the Sport Prestige. Hey, prestige is expensive. • AWD can be had for an extra $2000. • In the tech department, the G70 gets some good upgrades including a 10.25-inch navigation screen and an 8-inch digital instrument cluster. Other standard features include 18-inch wheels and leatherette seats. • The base Prestige gets 19-inch wheels and a sunroof with wireless charging and an upgraded audio system. • Top of the pyramid is the Sport Prestige that gets the 3.3-liter engine, Nappa leather, Brembo brakes, limited-slip differential, and an electronically controlled suspension. There are some new safety features including a Level II autonomous system that includes a Highway driving assist and a lane following assist, blind-spot, and rear cross-traffic collision avoidance, and safe exit warning. • I liked it before, I like it even better now. The Genesis G70 is a bonafide luxury sport sedan that’s actually a good value for the money and punches way above its class. Or you know what, maybe everyone else isn’t punching hard enough? • 00:00 2022 Genesis G70 • 0:29 Exterior • 1:29 Interior • 2:35 Engine • 3:04 Driving Impressions • 5:14 Competitors
