2024 Genesis G70

2026 Genesis G70 Performance

The 2026 Genesis G70 brings true sports car excitement to your daily drive around Manchester, NH. Whether you're merging onto I-93, navigating the winding roads of the White Mountains, or simply commuting through downtown, the G70 delivers responsive power exactly when you need it. The base 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine generates 300 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque, which is more than enough to make highway passing effortless and on-ramp acceleration thrilling. According to testing by automotive experts, this engine can rocket the G70 from 0 to 60 mph in just 5.9 seconds with all-wheel drive. That kind of performance means you'll never feel underpowered when accelerating to highway speeds or passing slower traffic on Route 101.

For drivers who want even more excitement, the 3.3-liter twin-turbo V6 delivers a stunning 365 horsepower and 376 lb-ft of torque. This engine transforms the G70 into a genuine performance machine, hitting 60 mph in a blistering 4.5 seconds. That's sports car territory at a sedan price. The V6 model includes performance upgrades like a sport-tuned suspension, a limited-slip differential, and a variable exhaust system that adds a satisfying growl when you press the accelerator. The G70 also features five different drive modes-Eco, Comfort, Custom, Sport, and Sport+-that let you adjust everything from steering weight to throttle response. This means you can set up the car for maximum comfort during your morning commute, then switch to Sport+ mode for a spirited weekend drive through New Hampshire's scenic backroads.

New Hampshire drivers will especially appreciate the G70's available all-wheel drive system, which provides excellent traction during our snowy winters and rainy spring seasons. The intelligent AWD system automatically distributes power between the front and rear wheels to maximize grip on slippery roads. Every G70 also comes standard with Brembo brakes that deliver confident stopping power in all weather conditions. The precise steering and balanced chassis make the G70 feel nimble and easy to maneuver in tight parking spaces downtown, yet stable and composed at highway speeds. Whether you're dealing with winter weather on Route 93 or enjoying a sunny drive along the Kancamagus Highway, the Genesis G70 gives you the performance and confidence you need.

2026 Genesis G70 Convenience Features

The 2026 Genesis G70 comes packed with modern convenience features that make every drive more enjoyable. One of the standout features is the touch-type climate control display, which replaces old-fashioned knobs and buttons with a sleek touchscreen. This intuitive system lets you adjust the temperature, fan speed, and airflow direction with a simple tap or swipe of your finger. You can also use voice commands or the steering wheel controls to change the climate settings without taking your hands off the wheel. The touch-type display adds a modern and elegant look to the G70's interior while making it easier than ever to stay comfortable inside the cabin.

Another impressive feature is the frameless rear-view mirror, which removes the bulky frame to give you a wider and clearer view of what's behind you. This sleek mirror also includes a built-in HomeLink system that lets you control your garage door, front gate, or home security system with just the press of a button. No more fumbling for your garage door remote when you pull into your driveway. The G70 also includes a wireless phone charger conveniently located in the center console. The charging pad features a rubberized surface that prevents your phone from sliding around, plus an indicator light that shows when your device is actively charging. This means your phone stays powered up and ready to use without the hassle of tangled charging cables.

The available surround-view monitor is a game-changer for parking and tight maneuvering situations. This system uses four cameras positioned around the vehicle to create a bird's-eye view that appears on the 10.25-inch navigation screen. You can easily switch between front, rear, and side camera views to get a closer look at any obstacles or tight spots. This feature makes parallel parking on Elm Street or backing into a tight garage space much less stressful. The G70 also offers smart cruise control with stop-and-go capability. This driver-assist feature uses radar and camera technology to automatically maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you. The system can even bring the G70 to a complete stop in traffic and then accelerate again when traffic starts moving. Smart cruise control reduces driver fatigue on long highway trips and makes stop-and-go traffic much more manageable.

2026 Genesis G70 Trim Levels

Choosing the right trim level for your 2026 Genesis G70 is an important decision. Genesis offers three main trim levels, each with its own unique combination of features and performance. We'll break down the differences between the 2.5T, 2.5T Prestige, and 3.3T Sport Prestige trims to help you find the perfect match for your driving needs and budget.

2.5T – The Entry-Level Trim with Serious Performance

The 2.5T is the base trim for the 2026 Genesis G70, but it's far from basic. This trim comes standard with a powerful 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that delivers 300 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque. That's enough power to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 5.9 seconds with all-wheel drive, putting it in the same performance league as luxury sedans costing thousands more. The 2.5T comes standard with an 8-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters, rear-wheel drive, premium Brembo brakes, dual exhaust outlets, and stylish 19-inch alloy wheels. If you want extra traction for New Hampshire winters, you can add all-wheel drive for an additional cost, which also includes a heated steering wheel and heated rear seats.

Even as the entry-level model, the 2.5T doesn't skimp on luxury features. You get leather seating surfaces, power-adjustable front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The standard 12-speaker sound system delivers excellent audio quality, and you also get a wireless charging pad for compatible smartphones. Safety features are generous too, including forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, and highway driving assist. The 2.5T starts at approximately $43,450, making it one of the most affordable luxury sports sedans you can buy. It offers an excellent balance of performance, comfort, and value that's hard to beat.

2.5T Prestige – The Sweet Spot for Luxury

The 2.5T Prestige builds on everything the base trim offers and adds a significant upgrade in luxury and convenience features. This mid-level trim keeps the same 300-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder engine, but surrounds you with premium materials and advanced technology. The Prestige trim upgrades to genuine Nappa leather seats with ventilation for the front seats, keeping you cool even on hot summer days. You also get a power sunroof that fills the cabin with natural light, a head-up display that projects important driving information onto the windshield, and a surround-view camera system that makes parking effortless.

The 2.5T Prestige also features an upgraded 15-speaker Lexicon premium audio system that transforms your daily commute into a concert hall experience. The digital gauge cluster provides a modern, customizable display with crisp graphics and easy-to-read information. For 2026, Genesis has added new wheel designs and available aluminum interior trim to give the Prestige an even more refined look. This trim level hits the sweet spot between performance and luxury, giving you nearly all the premium features of the top model while maintaining the efficiency and lower price of the four-cylinder engine. It's the perfect choice for drivers who want maximum luxury without stepping up to the V6 engine.

3.3T Sport Prestige – Maximum Performance and Luxury

The 3.3T Sport Prestige is the performance flagship of the G70 lineup. Under the hood sits a beast of an engine: a 3.3-liter twin-turbocharged V6 that produces 368 horsepower and 376 lb-ft of torque. This powerful engine launches the G70 from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.5 seconds, delivering acceleration that rivals true sports cars. The 3.3T Sport Prestige includes exclusive performance features like a sport-tuned suspension that sharpens handling, a limited-slip differential that improves cornering grip, a variable exhaust system that provides an aggressive exhaust note, and launch control for maximum acceleration off the line. The larger 19-inch wheels come standard and feature distinctive red Brembo brake calipers that hint at the performance hiding underneath.

The 3.3T Sport Prestige comes fully loaded with luxury features as standard equipment. You get Nappa leather seats, a power sunroof, head-up display, surround-view camera, digital gauge cluster, and the premium 15-speaker Lexicon sound system. The interior feels like a true luxury car with high-quality materials throughout and excellent build quality. For 2026, you can also choose the Sport Advanced Package, which adds eye-catching styling elements including a carbon fiber rear spoiler, dark chrome grille, black mirror caps, and dark-tinted taillights that give the G70 an even more aggressive appearance. The 3.3T Sport Prestige starts at around $56,395, which is still thousands less than comparable models from BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Audi. For drivers who want maximum performance, luxury, and technology in one package, the 3.3T Sport Prestige delivers everything you could ask for.

Prestige Graphite – The Exclusive Special Edition

New for 2026, Genesis has introduced the Prestige Graphite special edition, an exclusive trim available only in North America. This limited-edition model takes the already impressive 3.3T Sport Prestige and adds unique styling touches that make it stand out even more. The Prestige Graphite comes painted in an exclusive Ceres Blue color-a sophisticated grayish-blue shade that looks stunning in any light. The exterior features dark chrome detailing throughout, special dark 19-inch wheels, black accents, and black brake calipers that create a cohesive, stealthy appearance.

Inside, the Prestige Graphite really shines with exclusive Nappa leather Ultramarine Blue upholstery that perfectly complements the exterior color. Bold orange accents throughout the cabin create an eye-catching contrast that gives the interior a truly custom feel. Under the hood, you get the same powerful 365-horsepower twin-turbo V6 engine that provides thrilling performance whether you choose rear-wheel or all-wheel drive. The Prestige Graphite is priced at $56,900 for the rear-wheel drive version and $58,900 with all-wheel drive. This special edition offers a unique twist on the luxury sport sedan formula and is perfect for buyers who want something truly distinctive that won't be seen on every street corner.
