What's New for 2026?
The biggest news for the 2026 Genesis G70 is the addition of the Prestige Graphite trim. A dynamic twin-turbo V6 engine powers this range-topping model. It stands out with its exclusive Ceres Blue exterior, a beautiful grayish-blue hue complemented by darkened chrome accents. The Prestige Graphite rides on striking 19-inch alloy wheels with a unique design that you'll enjoy driving around the St. Louis area. Inside the cabin, you'll find rich, dark blue Nappa leather upholstery that creates a premium ambiance.
Beyond the Prestige Graphite, the 2026 G70 lineup gains some other updates. A new exterior color, Capri Blue, makes its debut, while a sophisticated beige interior theme is now available. Drivers in the St. Louis area will appreciate that a heated steering wheel is now standard on all-wheel drive (AWD) 2.5T models and higher trims.
The 2.5T Prestige now rides on restyled wheels and offers optional aluminum interior trim for a more contemporary look. A surround-view camera system provides added convenience and is available on the 2.5T Prestige, and comes standard on 3.3T trims.
Engine Options and Performance
Genesis offers two compelling engine options in the G70 sedan. The standard 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder produces a strong 300 horsepower and 311 pound-feet of torque. Drivers who want an even higher level of performance can opt for the 3.3-liter twin-turbo V6, which generates an impressive 365 horsepower and 376 pound-feet of torque.
Both engines are paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission that delivers smooth, rapid shifts. Rear-wheel drive (RWD) is standard, while all-wheel drive (AWD) is available for enhanced traction and handling. The G70's sport-tuned suspension, responsive steering, and available Brembo brakes make it exceptionally engaging to drive on winding roads through Chesterfield and Hazelwood.
Stunning Exterior and Interior Design
The Genesis G70 offers an extremely attractive style that's sure to impress the people of St. Charles. The bold crest grille, LED headlights and taillights, and dual exhaust tips accent its sleek, fastback silhouette. A variety of 18-inch and 19-inch alloy wheel designs lets you customize the sporty look. Inside, the G70 has a driver-focused cockpit with intuitively placed controls, available quilted Nappa leather seats, and aluminum trim. Ambient lighting sets the mood, while the power sunroof lets fresh air in on nice days in Clayton.
