With great looks and impressive powertrains, the 2024 Genesis G70 offers more than only outstanding value.

While the Germans have long dominated the sport-luxury sedan segment, they face mounting pressure from the Koreans. Case in point, Genesis has been on a tear lately, gaining market share and impressing critics and consumers alike with fresh aesthetics and excellent chassis design. The Hyundai luxury brand’s compact G70 is such an animal, coming on to the scene for the 2024 model year with only a few styling tweaks and a brand-new engine option

Verdict: A new, more powerful base engine arrives for this model year and, paired with the car’s excellent handling, great build quality, and impressive safety tech, makes even the least-expensive 2024 Genesis G70 a compelling choice. The G70 is a bit more snug than a BMW 3 Series–particularly in the trunk–but if you can live with a little less cargo space, it’s more than worth a look.

9/10

There is no doubt that Genesis is producing some of the most attractive cars you can buy these days. The G70 strikes a perfect balance between elegance and sportiness with its signature quad LED headlights and taillamps, standard dual exhaust and large front air intakes. Only 19-inch alloy wheels are available, but they look great and the proportion works.

There are 10 exterior color options, but there are two shades of white, two of gray and two of silver. The best-looking of the bunch is the Kawah Blue. It’s an extra $650 but the rich hue is worth it.

Inside the G70 gets a few updated design elements like the air vents and push-to-start button. A new digital climate control panel is a nice touch as are the new aluminum trim options. A frameless rearview mirror is new as well. You’ll get your choice of three interior colors: gray, red or black. Unfortunately, the red isn’t available with the blue exterior paint that we like– but then again, that’s probably a bit too much color for most folks. Regardless of color, the build-quality is excellent and the materials are all top-notch.
