Great Litttle Genesis

2022 Genesis G70 3.3T 4dr Sedan AWD (3.3L 6cyl Turbo 8A)

This is the smallest Genesis but with a big heart. 365 HP make for a very quick ride with all the safety/luxury/technological bells and whistles you can imagine on the largest Genesis. Great sports sedan. Highly recommend.

My 2021 G70 2.0T AWD Experience

I've had my G70 for about 1200 KMs (approximately 1000 miles) - 3 weeks. Here are the highlights the car feels solid and taut, handles very well and although you feel every imperfection in the road it is never harsh. The interior is a study for both functionality and design. There are so many features and design details. Everything is driver oriented, accessible and the materials are excellent. The technology is excellent, works well and can be easily turned on/off with physical buttons (thank you Genesis!). The overall luxury sports sedan experience is excellent and you combine that with a price that is more than competitive with the likes of Mercedes C-Class, Audi A4 and BMW 3 series, Lexus IS, etc. and you can see why this vehicle makes so much sense. Any cons? Of course no vehicle is perfect so here are mine. As you probably know by now this vehicle is small, therefore if you regularly shuttle more than 1 person around I would make sure you are ok with the tight dimensions (same with the trunk space). Also fuel economy is not great if you do mostly city driving like I do (I average about 20 mpg in the city with the AWD model). On a long distance highway trip a few weeks ago I got 36 MPG after a two hour drive. Finally I noticed a small rattle coming from the touchscreen display on hot days which I confirmed creaks when touched - this should be improved. I strongly recommend you check out the G70!

WORTH THE MONEY

Corvette RM 2022 2LT, 11/27/2022
2021 Genesis G70 2.0T 4dr Sedan AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

This is my second Genesis sedan. First was a base G80 AWD and this a G70 2.0 AWD Elite. I love my G70 for the value quotient. Drives sporty and fells like a sport sedan with more than adequate power for everyday use. Solid brakes and real good steering wheel road feel. Brakes are more than adequate and confidence inspiring. Sport mode really brings things up to a different level of excitement. However, comfort mode is just perfect for daily use. Have not met a corner yet that I couldn’t master with my G70 2..0T. Hits the corners hard and comes out looking for more. Adequate trunk and rear seat room if you think it through. Great stereo and the interior layout is spot on intuitive. Seats are comfy and have lots of adjustments. They hold you in place quite well. Interior Materials look fine to this observer and love the way they look and feel. Could use a heated steering wheel but at the price it was well worth the money anyway. Wish it had a remote start on the key fob rather than on my phone but the car is such a good value it is insignificant imo. Ride at 75+ is quiet and confidence inspiring. If you don’t need the badge status you’ll find the G70 to be a great purchase with gobs of warranty thrown into the mix.

Not the Same as older models

We had a 2013 Genesis that we kept for 10 years, were ready to purchase another one. Still a great car, but decided against it because the back seat in the newer models (G70) is so small, and the luxury seemed minimal. It was like driving a fast compact car, with limited features. To get something comparable to what we had before, we would've had to purchase the G90. The appeal to us was the "affordable luxury", Genesis no longer represents that. We purchased a Toyota Highlander Platinum instead.
