Review and specifications

2022 Genesis G70

Until 2024, the Genesis G70 sport sedan came with a standard 252-hp, four-cylinder turbo engine that was energetic, but had an acceleration time among the slowest in its class. We got 23 mpg in our AWD version, which isn't particularly good. The uplevel 365-hp V6 turbo is quieter and makes the car much quicker. The 2024 model was refreshed and introduced a 300-hp, four-cylinder turbo engine. The G70 has agile handling and a taut, controlled ride. However, its braking distances were long on both wet and dry pavement. The car is quiet, and the interior is well-put-together. Access is a bit tough because of the low stance, and the cabin is very cramped, particularly the tight backseat. An easy-to-use infotainment system screen dominates the center of the dashboard and is compatible with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, blind spot warning, and lane keeping assist are standard. The G70 received refreshed styling for 2022 as well as a new standard 10.25-inch touch screen infotainment system. The manual transmission was also dropped for the 2022 model.
