Genesis G70
The G70 is a compact luxury sedan from Genesis—and a Korean alternative to the popular German cars dominating the segment. How can it compete? Well, the G70 offers generous equipment at a more reasonable price than rivals, plus surprisingly dynamic performance. Under the hood is a standard turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine or an available twin-turbo 3.3-litre V6. For 2021, all trim levels get standard LED headlights. A significantly refreshed G70 is coming for 2022.
