Genesis was founded in 2015 as a division of Hyundai in the luxury market. It was the perfect time. This is why we have Genesis. If you recognize the advancement of Hyundai in the past decade or so, but can afford a few steps higher in terms of luxury and performance, this is it. In this video I check out the Genesis G70. Its got the bigger of two engines available and it is in their sport-oriented trim. Now, when you consider the competitors of the G70 then Genesis really has to come up with something special in order to even get noticed.

The G70 is a mixture of sporty and elegant features, all put together into a stylish and modern look that obviously battles with its main competitors from Germany. However, the G70 design also obviously draws on its sibling, the Kia Stinger.
