With an exterior redesign and updated tech, the 2022 Genesis G70 impresses with refinement, sportiness, and capability. The luxury sport sedan, which still offers two engine options, now has the distinctive crest grille and quad LED lamps in front and back so that aesthetically it fits in more closely with the rest of the Genesis lineup. Inside, the all-new G70 upgrades its technology offerings with a standard 10.25-inch multimedia display, a larger instrument cluster, and a faster wireless smartphone charger. On the performance side, the 2022 G70 has an available variable exhaust valve system and several drive modes, including the Sport+ mode that highlights the athletic sedan’s driving prowess.

The Exterior Redesign Of The 2022 G70

The new exterior design of the 2022 Genesis G70 features a bold signature look that incorporates the crest grille and the quad LED lamps in the front and rear for a sleek, athletic look for this entry-level compact luxury sedan. In front, the G70’s large mesh grille in the shape of a crest is positioned lower than on the larger G80 and G90 sedans, giving the G70 a more sporty look. The other major focus of the G70’s exterior makeover is the quad lighting element that features the distinctive two lines of the new stacked quad LED headlights and taillights.
