Genesis G70 Price Guide

The Genesis G70 is the compact executive saloon from Hyundai’s luxury brand. It is a rear-wheel-drive sports saloon using a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder or a 3.3-litre twin-turbo V6 producing 365bhp that competes directly with the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes C-Class. The G70 is the most driver-focused Genesis and the car that most directly challenges the European executive establishment on driving dynamics.

The Car

The G70 uses a 2.0-litre turbo producing 245bhp or the 3.3-litre twin-turbo V6 at 365bhp – the latter offering genuine performance that matches the BMW M340i. Rear-wheel drive is standard; all-wheel drive is available on the V6. The interior uses quilted leather, aluminium trim, and a layout that deliberately references European luxury conventions. An eight-speed automatic is the only gearbox. The G70 Shooting Brake estate is available in some European markets.

Buying

The 3.3T V6 AWD is the performance specification. The 2.0T is the accessible entry to Genesis ownership. Depreciation from new prices has been substantial, which means the G70 is outstanding used value relative to the BMW and Mercedes it competes against. The Genesis five-year warranty and complimentary servicing package are the ownership highlights.
