I drove an Audi S5, BMW m340i and hesitantly - I decided to go with the G70. Having had it for a week now, I am in awe of everything from the build quality to performance. What started as a decision solely based on cost savings has turned into an affection for the brand. And having switched from a Tesla model 3, I am blown away by this vehicle’s performance. Its an absolute machine. Downfalls include the partly digital cluster, though you get used to it quickly. I think they could clean up the interior by getting rid of most of the chrome, but we’re splitting hairs at this point. I love the G70 and arguably will be a fan for life. Not to make sure they keep their promise on the service side and hopefully, this amazing warranty holds true too. Time will tell but I’m in love.

I took a test drive on the highway and then around a few city turns, then looked again at the features on the window sticker and the drive-out price and asked my sales person where to sign so I could drive it home asap. The G70 got my attention back in 2020 but at the time we opted for the Accord 2.0, which is no slouch, because of price and practicality as the grocery getter. This time, for our 2nd car, the G70 with advanced package and RWD sat in the sweet spot. The exterior looks even better after the refresh as does the dash. This machine is beautiful in and out. I also had to make sure my golf bag fit in the smallish trunk and it did. I drove MB and Audi between '06 and '20 and while I loved them both, the price/performance ratio on this G70 can't be beat.

BMW to G70 - No Regrets, but Room for Improvement

I thought my BMW 330is was quick off the line and zippy enough to get me into trouble - but after test-driving the 2022 3.3L Genesis G70 Sport Prestige, I KNEW this car was fast enough to get me into trouble! Stunning sport-mode acceleration and a grip on the road as good or better than its sports sedan contemporaries made it easy to trade the Beemer in for this car. Really cool looking - especially in Havana Red. My BMW was good looking, but it never turned any heads. The G70, however, gets looks and questions - the most common: "What IS this?" G70 Sport Prestige PROS: Rocket ship acceleration; superb sports sedan handling but cushy in selectable comfort-mode; comfortable front seats; lots of cool technology; gets lots of attention (careful, that includes from the cops); massive Brembo brakes; smart cruise control with decent auto-pilot steering (not quite as good as Tesla); excellent climate control. CONS: Mediocre fuel economy; small fuel tank (short range); tight back seat; lacks some advanced features like automatic parking/unparking; driver profiles not stored in key fob like my BMW (a pain with a car shared with my short wife); someone's idea of "stereo" is a single main audio speaker in the dash. Excellent sound quality, but everything balanced to the center-front instead of left-to-right (can be "sort-of" adjusted with fader control to overcome this); trunk space is fair. That said, the G70 offers great bang-for-the buck high-end luxury and performance. Compared with BMW, MBZ, Acura, Infinity and Audi, I have no regrets spending my money on the Genesis.

Bought 2.0T AWD to replace muscle commuter

Riding in a friend's GV80 with Highway Driving Assist immediately convinced me to look at Genesis. I seriously do not like long drives and traffic so thought I'd replace an optioned out 2018 392 Challenger with something that could help make long trips and lines of traffic bearable. My initial concern was that I'd miss the 392's acceleration so I test drove both a 3.3T and a 2.0T, but to be honest, I didn't feel there was a huge "street legal" difference in performance between those two Genesis engines. In full disclosure, I also own an 1100 rwhp Camaro, so my yardstick pushed the 2.0T and 3.3T's performance well to the left of not simply the 392, but definitely that of the Camaro. Public streets being what they are, especially with rush hour traffic, I couldn't justify the extra $9k for a 3.3T AWD. Give me that Highway Driving Assist to deal with long trips, an AWD powertrain to deal with poor weather conditions, and the best factory sound system. Those 3 items can be found with the smaller engine, but I will say, the Lexicon sound system is not as good as the Harmon Kardon's found in any of the BMW/Dodge/Mercedes/RAM vehicles. And that's a shame, so one star off. I will say, in support of the 4 stars, that every day I drive the G70, I like it more and more. I was briefly considering a WRX, but the Genesis definitely feels more substantial, better built, comes with the best tech this side of Mercedes, and has more efficient powertrain. I do wish the 2.0T models had some of the features the 3.3T has, like HUD, buttonless trunk opener, digital key and...well, that's about it, and those aren't deal breakers for a car that does 12 miles (30 minutes) per day. This is a great 3 series type car, and that doesn't even consider the price point, so yes, great car!

Well balanced and solid car. Smooth gliding about town and rip roaring fun on the highway. It can do it all. The heated steering wheel and seats are welcome in the cold. Sure footed AWD. Head turner yet buttoned down and well mannered. On par with German offerings yet the tech is pleasantly intuitive and few inputs are required to get what you want. Bank vault solid build quality and the 365HP and AWD get it going any speed you want in seconds. If you had any reservations about buying a luxury brand Hyundai, give this a drive and you’ll be the first one in your neighborhood with the nicest car no-one has seen before.

This car has exceeds my expectations on so many levels. It’s power from the twin turbo awd v6 is a pleasure to drive. Extremely agile, yet luxurious. Fit & finish are very high quality. Looks are subjective, however this car has so many nice body lines. Add in the covered mainline (take note bmw/Mercedes’ Benz /Audi) plus the best warranty it’s a home run.

2022 2.0T Advanced AWD. Aesthetically beautiful inside and out. Base engine has plenty of pep for me, with a nice purr. A drivers car so you’re riding low in the seat, which adds to the fun. Takes corners like a dream. Driving assist for long stretches of highway driving makes for a more pleasant experience. Trunk is small given spare tire and battery placement (fits a golf bag diagonally). Nice and tight overall with a firm ride but not harsh. Gets lots of looks!

From Excitement to Regret: My Journey with the G70

I purchased the 2022 Genesis G70 2.0T AWD Prestige model in November 2021, straight off the truck. My decision was based on months of research, and I was so certain about my choice that I didn't even feel the need to test drive it. However, my initial excitement soon turned into regret regarding the 2022 G70. From the very beginning, I encountered issues with the brand. It started with a subpar pre-delivery inspection and detail of the car. The person responsible for removing the vinyl shipping wrappers did a poor job, leaving light "zebra-stripes" all over the paint. Additionally, one of the wheels had sustained damage during shipping. It took weeks of persistent effort to address these problems, which were eventually resolved months later when I switched to a different dealer for servicing after my original dealer stopped selling and servicing Genesis vehicles. Unfortunately, the problems continued to mount over the course of a year and a half. The G70 exhibited peculiar electronic glitches, such as proximity sensors going off randomly, even when nothing was nearby to trigger them. The passenger-side power mirror frequently failed to fold in/out when locking and unlocking the car. The infotainment system would occasionally black out, necessitating a hard reset to restore functionality. Fit and finish issues also arose, including loose trim pieces on the roof, paint chipping around the edges of the rear bumper, bubbling in the adaptive cruise control sensor plate, rattling in the headliner, and complete failure of the dampening struts for the rear trunk lid (which I had to replace TWICE). The leather used for the seating surfaces turned out to be of poor quality. After just a year, the bolstering on both front seats appeared wrinkled and worn, while my wife's 2022 Mazda3 Carbon Edition still had seats that looked brand new. The driver's seat even began to bubble. After enduring these problems for a year and a half, I had finally had enough and decided to trade in the G70 for a 2023 BMW 430i xDrive Gran Coupe with the M Sport package. It was unquestionably a superior car in many aspects, including quality, fit and finish, and the overall dealership experience. Considering my experience with the Genesis G70, I cannot recommend either the car or the brand to anyone. The quality issues I faced, coupled with my customer service experience (which I should note is not necessarily the fault of the dealers, but rather Hyundai for not providing the necessary resources to enable dealers to represent the Genesis brand as a true tier-1 luxury competitor), make it difficult to endorse Genesis at this time. Perhaps in the future, Genesis will address the quality and dealership experience needed to compete effectively with established luxury brands like Lexus, BMW, and Mercedes. However, that transformation is likely to take years and won't happen overnight.

Despite the extravagant promises of concierge service, complementary maintenance, and bumper-to-bumper warranty, dealer support is almost none-existent. Service Dept at the dealer I bought my G70 from became non-responsive, and the one I have to use is a 2-hour drive each way. "Complementary" routine maintenance is a 2-3 month wait. And the "Concierge Service" they brag on is "geographically limited;" i.e., you pretty much have to live next to the dealership. Because they totally separated from Hyundai, there's really no dealer network to rely on. Love the car - better than a C-Class, if you ask me - but buy a Genesis, and you are on your own.

I loved the car for the first year or so. Then I began having tons of problems. The most serious was that the car would go into "limp" mode, where the check engine light would come on and it would only go about 60 mph max. Felt like it was running on three cylinders. When I attempted to get the car fixed at a dealership, they told me it would be over a month until I could get an appointment, When I explained that the car was nearly inoperable and that I needed to get it fixed ASAP I was told I could "bring it in and drop it off and we will try to get it in". No loaner car, no concierge service, it was basically "tough shit". I contacted Genesis corporate, they were of no help. No one at any dealership was able to get the car in and get it looked at. The car would go in and out of "limp mode". One day when it was not in "limp mode" but the check engine light was still on, I traded it in for a 2024 VW GTI. The VW dealership has been great and the car has had no problems. I will never buy another product from Hyundai/Kia/Genesis. The cars are great for the first 20k miles, then they turn into crap and you are left dealing with the worst dealerships ever. I say this as someone who has owned multiple VWs and Dodges---even their dealers are better than the [non-permissible content removed] at Genesis. I strongly recommend you look at any other luxury brands, you will have a far better experience.

I purchased a new G70 in early May. The vehicle experienced a nearly total computer failure six weeks later. It’s been back at the dealership for a week and they haven’t been able to fix the problem. I regret the purchase.

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.

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.

Love the g70! Have owned a 2022 2.0 and now a 2022 3.3. Both great cars but very different. The 2.0 handled beautifully and for 99% of your daily driving is plenty of car. Actually handles better in corners than the 3.3. But … the 3.3 has the “stomp” factor in Sport mode which is so much fun. Unfortunately fuel consumption higher in the 3.3 as are insurance costs! Have never driven the newer 2.5 version. No complaints after nearly 4 years. Genesis service has been excellent!

Absolutely beautiful car. Picked one up for 40k CAD, and I’ve loved every second. The engine is super responsive, and the feel of the car is unlike anything you can describe. The interior is extremely luxurious, and the drive assist features work as intended. It is definitely a driver‘s car, designed by spirited drivers. It feels like every single day I discover something new about what the car can do. The exterior styling is beautiful as well. Moving onto the things that I don’t necessarily love about the car, but are not a huge deal for me. The backseats are talked about as being puny and I don’t think this is true. I’m 6’0 225 pounds and I fit behind myself. My friend who is 6’3 200 pounds Found it slightly uncomfortable sitting behind me, but tolerable for trips under three hours. The next thing I don’t necessarily love, is the trunk space. It is a very shallow trunk, but big enough to fit a hockey bag which is what matters to me. The last thing I don’t necessarily love, is the gas mileage. Everyone speaks about the mileage as being horrendous, but I also think this is over exaggerated. Coming from someone who’s only owned Honda Civics previously, if you drive it well on the highway you can easily pull 27 or 28 miles per gallon. When driving in sport mode and revving and accelerating like crazy, you can expect between 13 and 15, but regular driving you should be expecting around 23 miles per gallon combined. While this is nothing like my previous three Honda Civic, I love this car and the value you get is better than any German brand could ever offer you. Not to mention the warranty is unbeatable. Anyone thinking of getting their first luxury sedan, I strongly suggest checking out the 3.3 G 70 before looking into any German brands.
Great
