In the Russian market, the Hyundai Genesis G70 also managed to make a splash - according to the official statement, this model will be supplied with only one engine, but the documents prepared for our market include three different engines. One way or another, the creators managed to make a fuss around the novelty, but the actual state of affairs will be expected over time.

The rear bumper has stylish ribs on the sides, smoothly flowing into the car body, and in the center there is a decorative insert made of a small wavy vertical grille. On the right is the twin tailpipe, made up of two separate square-shaped halves.
On the side, the new Genesis G70 showcases a clever combination of style, design and practicality. Its streamlined shape speaks of the car's swiftness and sporty character.

A small brace is located behind the front arches, with its sharp angle directed in the direction of the vehicle's movement, which gives the overall appearance a note of impetuosity. The lower and upper parts of the side doors are decorated with longitudinal ribs that smoothly merge with the main body of the sedan. The roof of the car flows smoothly towards the stern and merges with the luggage compartment lid. The overall design of the Genesis G70 speaks to the status and character of the model.

Photos of the new sedan Hyundai Genesis G70 2019:
In 2008, the South Korean company Hyundai presented a new product to the world - the Genesis car. In short, this is a business class car, which is characterized as a premium sports sedan. True, a coupe was also created on this basis. Since 2014, a new generation of this model has been released, and that's exactly what I would like to talk about.
Design
The Genesis car was originally a good car. But technology does not stand still, because the new models, produced since 2014, have become even more modern and sophisticated. First of all, the specialists improved the strength of the body - and all thanks to an increase in the proportion of high-strength steel (used in the structure) to 51.5 percent. Due to this, control and sound insulation have improved. After all, this material dampens even the slightest vibrations. By the way, I would like to tell you more about this. Noise and vibration isolation in this model is maximum - even the noise of the engine and the road is practically inaudible. And all thanks to the partition that the developers placed in the engine compartment. And, of course, a lot has been achieved through the use of effective
Engine
Now it is worth talking about what kind of power unit the Genesis Hyundai car is equipped with. The first suggested option is the 3.8 GDI with D-CVVT system. This is a modern engine with a capacity of 315 horsepower (at 6000 rpm per minute) and a maximum torque of 397 Nm (rpm: 5000 rpm).
There is one more engine - 3.0 GDI. In everything except torque, volume and horsepower, it is identical to the above. By the way, its capacity is 249 liters. with.
Specifications
Engines work in tandem with an 8-speed "automatic". It was already possible to understand that Genesis is a car in which the developers of the concern have implemented many technological advances. Here are just a few of them: the hydraulic torque converter, solenoid valve block (equipped with direct control), an improved aluminum gearbox housing, and built-in wiring and sensors.
The electronically controlled multi-link suspension (ECS) is also worth noticing. Thanks to this design, the degree of damping is regulated. It depends on the driving mode and road conditions. In addition, ECS ensures maximum driving comfort. By the way, there are three modes - normal, eco and for driving in the snow.
Control
The Genesis car boasts many more features besides its powerful engine. Special attention should be paid to the rack and pinion steering, equipped with an electronic amplifier. The system is remarkably stable and responsive. Driving is easier than ever. Moreover, this system reduces fuel consumption by up to three percent. This is the advantage of an electronic amplifier over hydraulics.
Learn more about the principles of work. With a small steering angle, the steering wheel turns the wheels very slowly and smoothly. If the angle is increased, then the effect will be appropriate. That is, the wheels will turn much faster and sharper. Therefore, driving a car brings the driver only pleasure - both when parking and when driving at high speeds.
And by the way, due to the rear-wheel drive layout, the mass of the car is distributed in the most practical and optimal way. This also plays a role.
Salon
Naturally, a few words should be said about the interior. The Genesis car looks luxurious from the outside as well as from the inside. The large display and the laconic horizontal layout are immediately striking. The switches are located in a very practical way - due to this, the most comfortable operation is provided, since there is no need to be distracted by anything. The analog clock is placed in order from bottom to top, and then the monitor, climate control and multimedia system. Everything looks very laconic, harmonious and stylish. As an option, by the way, it is offered with a sunroof. This is a peculiar highlight of the Genesis model.
The car, the photo of which is provided above, is good in all respects. Its interior is magnificent, because only high-quality expensive materials were used in the finishing process. By the way, the chairs are offered in several versions (you can choose the skin of the color you like more). Even in the salon, natural wood and aluminum trim parts were used. Everything in the interior of this car is thought out - even the (front) PSV Genesis looks very stylish and modern.
Details such as illuminated door sills and a roof console adorn the interior.
Optics
The Genesis Coupe (like the sedan) features high-quality modern optics. Xenon headlights with built-in LED daytime running lights are installed in front. They provide very bright and precise illumination. And besides, these optics are very economical! It consumes a minimum of energy. Even when the car approaches another car, the intelligent high beam system automatically switches to low beam. There are also LEDs at the back. By the way, the optics have a very stylish shape. The headlights perfectly emphasize the exquisite appearance of the car. This is clearly demonstrated by the photos presented above.
Options
Potential buyers are also offered the option of electric door closers. These are sensors integrated into the door locks, thanks to which miniature electronic motors are activated. In other words, these devices completely close the doors (in the event that those leaving the car did not completely cover them).
Another option is the automatic opening of the boot lid. In the event that the owner stands behind the car with a smart key for more than 3 seconds, then the trunk ... opens by itself. A very modern and user-friendly feature. After all, the driver does not then have to put his luggage on the ground and then pick it up again.
LED foglights are also available as an option. Their light can break through a very dense, seemingly impenetrable fog. And it is worth ordering this option - for security reasons.
And one more option is the AEB system. Or, in other words, autonomous emergency braking. The desired function. If the system notices that the distance of the car has suddenly decreased to a driving / standing car, then it instantly reacts - applies the brakes. This happens due to the constant reading of the radiator signal (the SCC system works here - cruise control), as well as the analysis of the image coming from the camera equipped with a road marking tracking system. In general, it is advisable to order such an option.
Exterior
What can you tell us about Genesis? The Hyundai car brand has always been famous for the attractiveness of its cars. And if ordinary sedans look pretty, then what can we say about such a premium model as Genesis.
Draws attention Very interesting shape. Customers are also offered either a silver color with chrome plating, or black. An elegant emblem flaunts on the hood, emphasizing the exclusive appearance of the brand new Hyundai.
Much more noticeable make the car repeaters "turn signals", placed on the rear A emit a bright red light. Due to this, the car becomes more visible both in fog and in snowy or rainy weather.
Another highlight is the shark fin shaped antenna. A practical detail is the illumination of the space around the door. It is activated at the moment when Genesis approaches another machine. This function makes it easier to open the door.
Finally, disks. Light alloy, stylish ... There are three options: 17, 18 and 19 inches.
Security
Another important topic that cannot be ignored when talking about the Genesis car. The Hyundai logo is itself a definition of safety and quality. And this is actually the case.
Genesis is equipped with nine airbags. There are rear, front, knee and even curtains. Protection from all sides, in other words.
There are also belts with the Pre-Safe Belt system. True, this is an option. But smart belts are worth ordering. Indeed, in the event of an accident, the pretensioners are activated, the person is “fixed” in the chair as tightly as possible.
An active system that protects pedestrians in the event of an accident is also well developed. The bonnet absorbs the impact - it rises, and even if a collision occurs, the person's head is the least damaged.
And there is also HTRAC as an add-on. Or, in other words, intelligent four-wheel drive. It is activated if the car notices bumps or slippery road surfaces. At the same time, the front axle of the car is simply connected, the control becomes simpler and safer.
Modern equipment
The Genesis car, the characteristics of which have been described in great detail above, has a very rich package. Take the concept of intuitive control, for example. Thanks to her, a person drives a car without hesitation. The interface is very simple, it combines everything: the steering wheel, the dashboard, as well as the seat adjustment and the center console.
The car also has an all-round visibility system, three-zone climate control, electric seat adjustment (equipped with built-in memory for 2 drivers), a premium audio system and a color head-up display located on the windshield. Plus there is a driver information system.
But that is not all. Useful functions also include an electromechanical “handbrake”, parking sensors, a ventilation system for the seats (there is also heating), as well as a key card and a rain sensor. In general, as you can see, "Genesis" has everything that can be needed. And this is what makes this car so popular and in demand.
Price
The new Genesis model will cost about 2,330,000 rubles. The cost may differ depending on the salon in which a person plans to purchase a car. By the way, if you want to save money, you can look for used options. The car will be in excellent, almost new condition, but with mileage, and this is usually given a substantial discount from the previous owner. For example, a 2014 model with a range of 36,000 kilometers can be purchased for only one and a half million rubles. And this, compared to the original price, is very cheap.
The first generation, however, will cost even less. About 700 thousand rubles. But there the engine is weaker (2.0, 213 hp), and the equipment is more modest. In general, it is up to the person who wants to buy a car for himself.

Genesis brand history
After years of competing for the premium segment of the car market, South Korean Hyundai has decided to create its independent sub-brand called Genesis. The new brand, as well as Toyota's Lexus luxury division or Nissan's sister brand Infiniti, carries an ideology of technical excellence, and its cars are intended mainly for demanding, promising and wealthy individuals with an ambitious character. According to the company, the Genesis brand is completely focused on the needs of customers who want maximum comfort, safety, multimedia capabilities, technical innovation and at the same time be stylish. Longer term, Genesis plans to market its vehicles through separate independent channels not tied to Hyundai dealerships.
As of 2016, the Genesis model lineup consists of two premium sedans: the flagship G90 (in class this car is comparable to the Stuttgart S-class, BMW 7 and Audi A8) and the mid-size G80. The exterior of these cars was developed under the direction of Chief Designer Peter Schreier, who displayed incredibly elegant lines and emphasized the proportions characteristic of premium sedans with a long bonnet and short overhangs. With the launch of the luxury brand Genesis, Hyundai is symmetrically leaving its lineup without two top premium cars - the Hyundai Equus (now marketed as the Genesis G90) and the Genesis model of the same name (G80). Genesis cars are mainly targeted at buyers from the USA, Canada, Russia, the Gulf countries and Korea. In the future, it is planned to expand the sales market.
The Russian market for Genesis is one of the priority ones. In the fall of 2016, the company launches official Russian sales of its G90 sedan and opens a production line for this model in Kaliningrad. According to the manufacturer, the Genesis G90 uses a high-strength body made of high-rigidity alloys with low weight. The car is equipped with an innovative adaptive suspension and HTRAC all-wheel drive system. Starting from the basic version, the sedan is equipped with 9 airbags, a premium audio system, a rear-view camera and other advanced electronics. The top performance of the model, built on an elongated base, is distinguished by separate rear seats and an expanded list of options. In 2017, the junior model Genesis G70 is released, which stands out from other sedans with a pronounced sporty appearance.
