5 reasons to buy the 2022 Genesis G70
1. Power where it counts
Put some excitement back into your daily commute with the 2022 Genesis G70. Even the base turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder engine makes an impressive 252 hp. But if you want even more eye-opening performance, look at the twin-turbocharged 3.3L V6 engine. With 365 hp on tap, the twin-turbo G70 delivers more than enough power for the passing lane.
2. Upscale interior
Once you experience the available heated and ventilated seats, covered in quilted Nappa leather and sewn with double-stitched seams, you'll realize that the 2022 Genesis G70 is more than just a fun sports sedan. The base 2.0T trim has standard simulated leather seating and plenty of comfort and convenience features, but you can shop for a model with the Prestige package, which adds full leather seating. Whichever trim you choose, you'll find that the 2022 G70 has just the right combination of high-end features to be your next daily driver.
3. Available sport features
The 2022 Genesis G70 is fast, but power is nothing without control. Available equipment on the 3.3T trim can help you maximize the fun. Look for features like a limited-slip differential to help improve traction on wet and snowy roads, a Brembo® braking system for maximum stopping power, and an electronically controlled suspension to optimize ride comfort and handling control. The fun never ends in the 2022 G70.
4. The latest connectivity
The 2022 Genesis G70 lets you manage all of its technology through a massive—and standard—10.25-inch touchscreen. You'll have access to Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ connectivity, plus you can manage all the vehicle settings and a whole lot more from the wide screen. Download the Genesis Intelligent Assistant® app and your G70 will be at your fingertips, even when you're not sitting in the driver's seat.
5. 13 exterior color options
The 2022 Genesis G70 isn't just available in black, white and gray, with a choice of one or two interior colors. You'll find a host of exterior and interior colors to ensure your G70 is just right for you. There are a total of 13 exterior colors to choose from, including three blues, a brilliant green, and even "Havana Red." Not only that but there are five available interior color combinations and four wheel choices.
