2022 The New Genesis G70 Facelift review - First Genesis to have Sport+ mode!

[@CarSceneKorea]

What more do you want to know about the 2022 The New Genesis G70 Facelift? Leave in comments, I'll find out more about G70 in showrooms!

[@ChrisRash]

Do you know when it is on sale in the US?

[@meenamjah]

one thing. will it get the 3.5TT?

[@Harriman2727]

Is it 21 or 22?

I think they did a great job on the design of this model, they struck a perfect balance between sport and luxury as far as I'm concerned.

[@CarSceneKorea]

100% agreed

Yes Genesis cars in general are outstanding!!

[@gregwiens35]

We learned more in this short review (valved quad exhaust, plastic lower trunk lid, sound in each mode) than other previous reviews combined! Nice details!

[@CarSceneKorea]

Always wish I had more time with cars. I had 30 minutes with this G70 :'( Thanks for the compliments! 🙏

[@rexfloyd2109]

I like the older one a little more but this one still looks great!

[@acarroll1714]

This is the only one where the grill doesn’t seem obnoxiously big. To me it’s perfect.

[@CarSceneKorea]

Wonder how other variants would look like 🤔

[@acarroll1714]

The quad headlights take away from the size of the grill somehow. It looks better on the gv70/80 but it this is the best grill ratio on the sedans.

[@CarSceneKorea]

@@acarroll1714 Not to mention this is just a facelift :) Can't wait for that full change!

Nice to see this beauty before it gets to the U.S. Appreciate this video! :-)

[@CarSceneKorea]

[@timw2083]

I think Genesis really improved the front. It looks more cohesive. I wish they tuned the 3.5TT for the G70 around 390hp/400 torque

[@CarSceneKorea]

Note the fact that this is a facelift they had to squeeze in the previous mold before Genesis identity was set :) Let's wait for that full change G70!

The best thing about this redesign is they made the backseats headroom taller.

[@CarSceneKorea]

Didn't know abt that, thats really a great upgrade!

[@freeedom22]

Just wanted to say that I like the way this video was produced. Not with a lot of ceremonial yet looks professional..like in a faux improvised yet very pro kinda way (catching old models passing by “live” haha). Even the transitions between segments are cool instead of just cutting. Talk too is natural in its flow yet I’m sure it was not written on paper before ( right? Apart from maybe a few general talk points). Thanks, enjoyed it.

[@CarSceneKorea]

Best compliment I've ever gotten thus far, thanks for making my day! Yes, you are correct on everything, I never prepare scripts for my reviews(tried but just isn't for me), I study the car before I shoot the video though, of course. But I had 30 minutes with this car, and spent half of it finding a parking space and returning. Hope had more time, certainly there was more to cover!

[@freeedom22]

@@CarSceneKorea Thanks That's good.. The 2019 G70 RWD base pkg got lap time of 1:53 at Inje Speedium race circuit (almost the same as BMW M3) The race driver said the car and the chassis is good but the stock ECU could improve as the ABS brake kicked in too early in the turns and power is cut off. Hopefully with the new 2021 model with Sport+ will solve that in the ECU department and give you more control.

the old gauge cluster looked far more refined and clean like it should in a luxury car. the new one's graphics look like they're taken straight out of a shitty mobile game. what a shame. the super clean/almost minimalist gauge cluster from my '16 g80 is one of my favorite parts of the car.

[@CarSceneKorea]

I agree! I mentioned that in the vid briefly. The previous one certainly designed for G70 exclusive, whereas this one has the Genesis family cluster

Soon as the video comes on. Look at the Genesis and look at the Mercedes. It puts that Mercedes to shame. It even looks more expensive. Genesis sold me in 2015, I knew that they would take over back then

@@CarSceneKorea true... although it's a bit strange since they already sell the kias and hyundais... this is just the premium brand of those, just like Lexus is to Toyota, etc... I guess they have to build more trust in these other brands, and see slowly if people actually buy them...

это действительно здорово слышать истории, подобные вашей, о людях, любящих Hyundai и Hyundai. Для этого G80 им действительно удалось сэкономить некоторые габариты, при этом симулируя дизайн как автомобиль, похожий на быстрый назад.

[@horridohobbies]

I don't like the facelift. I prefer the original design. The crest grille is ugly. And why have the "GENESIS" script on the trunk lid? BMW doesn't do that. Mercedes-Benz doesn't do that. Audi doesn't do that. (Sure, Porsche does it but that doesn't mean it's good.) There's something about the original headlamps that I find more appealing. The all-digital gauge cluster is cool, especially with the blind spot camera images, but I kinda like having some physical analogue gauges. I guess I have classical tastes. Moreover, if the digital screen ever dies, you don't have physical gauges to fall back on in an emergency. I've experienced dead screens often enough in my life to not trust them 100%.

good car indeed but dealer suck. I bought one and I regret every aspect when it comes down to dealer service. I rather get BMW or lexus than this not because of the quality. yes quality is great might even better than those two established brands but dealer service is a joke. The ultimate package service that they advertised in genesis website is a lie. I cannot even get a freaking loaner for the service because apparently, the manufacturer is not reimbursing the loaner service. I had to Uber my self to enterprise to get a rental every time. its pitiful.
