Genesis launches updated G70 sedan lineup, adds sportier Graphite Edition trim

Genesis, the independent luxury brand of Hyundai Motor Group, on Monday launched an updated lineup of the G70 sedan, which includes a new performance-enhanced Graphite Edition trim, the automaker said. For refreshed G70 and G70 Shooting Brake trims, Genesis made the previous Comfort Package configuration standard, which includes a head-up display, driver's seat memory system and a power-adjustable steering wheel. The rear design was also refined by removing the lettering while leaving the Genesis brand emblem for a cleaner and more modern look. The newly introduced G70 Graphite Edition is equipped with a 3.3-liter turbocharged gasoline engine and emphasizes a sporty performance. It features exclusive sport-themed design elements, along with a wide range of convenience features. A Genesis official said the company has updated its G70 lineup to improve customer accessibility by offering improved standard features while keeping price increases at modest levels.
