Genesis G70 2017 - 2020

The Genesis G70 is a compact prestige sedan launched in 2017 by South Korean luxury brand Genesis, embodying Hyundai group's strategic shift toward luxury and technological excellence. Positioned in the upper-middle class sedan segment, between the BMW 3 Series and Audi A4, Genesis G70 history began at Detroit's international auto show with an emancipated design signaling a deliberate break with Hyundai aesthetics. The first generation (2017-2023) fits into a phase of strong identity building, marked by the adoption of the distinctive Genesis grille and motorization offering turbodiesel and turbo-gasoline in four and eight-cylinder versions. Genesis G70 generations progressively enriched themselves: the second generation, commercialized from 2021, refines mechanical and digital architecture, integrating updated infotainment systems and mild-hybrid powertrains meeting contemporary environmental standards. The Genesis G70 model also evolved toward an enhanced electronic platform and upgraded interior finishes, confirming the South Korean automaker's anchoring in the premium segment. Today, the G70 remains a solid proposition against its historic German rivals, driven by attractive equipment-to-price ratio and extended manufacturer warranty, distinctive assets in this highly competitive segment.
