What’s New in the October Release of the G70 Facelift?

[Asia Economy Reporter Suyeon Woo] The Genesis brand sports sedan G70 has returned with a facelift model after three years. The strategy is to captivate consumers by enhancing dynamism while featuring a design that reflects the identity of the Genesis brand.

On the 9th, Genesis revealed the interior and exterior design of 'The New G70,' scheduled for release next month. The facelifted G70 model showcases the most dynamic exterior design among Genesis models and also implements a driver-centric interior space equipped with advanced features.

The engine lineup will use the same engines applied to the existing G70, operating with three powertrains: gasoline 2.0 turbo, diesel 2.2, and gasoline 3.3 turbo. Additionally, the rear-wheel-drive powertrain, which was well-received by previous customers, will be maintained.

The most noticeable changes are the front and rear designs featuring quad lamps. The front applies the 'Crest Grille,' inspired by the shield of the Genesis logo. However, the grille is positioned lower than the headlamps, and the two diagonal rows of quad lamps convey a sense of speed and dynamism.

At the rear, the rear lamps express the wings of the Genesis logo, also positioned diagonally, and the body-colored diffuser located between the width-emphasizing grille section and the dual mufflers at the lower bumper completes the unique design of the sports sedan. The diffuser improves airflow under the body and increases downforce that presses the body downward during driving, securing driving stability at high speeds.

The interior design creates a driver-centric cockpit resembling a fighter jet cockpit. Advanced technology features (IT) have also been added to improve convenience.

First, the new 10.25-inch infotainment system with Genesis-exclusive design supports wireless updates (OTA), valet mode, and CarPay, providing a more expanded user experience. Additionally, a horizontal wireless charging system with increased charging capacity (5W→15W) has been applied, allowing charging of a wider variety of smartphone sizes compared to the previous vertical type.

Genesis will officially launch the new G70 in the domestic market next month, and detailed specifications and features will be disclosed along with the official release.
