Genesis cars are always receiving accolades and attention, but this season the brand’s SUVs have stolen the show. The debut of the GV70 compact SUV and the GV60 subcompact SUV have placed the Korean luxury brand’s SUVs in the spotlight. However, we want to remind you of the brand’s high-quality sedans – which are coming back refreshed for 2022. Sedans such as the 2019 Car of the Year-winning G70 and specific variants of the midsize G80 are returning to the stage this year and ready to make a splash. So, let’s dive into what has changed for Genesis’ sedans for 2022.
2022 G70
The G70 already had a strong foundation- strong enough to win the 2019 Car of the Year trophy- but now, it has the styling to stand out from the crowd. Undergoing a dramatic makeover for 2022, the 2022 Genesis G70 finally receives the design language that had already been implemented on the G80, GV80, and G90. The sedan will boast all new front and rear end styling, such as the angular chainmail mesh grille flanked on either side by distinctive twin-bar headlights and twin-bar tail lights mirror that look at the rear end.
In terms of the interior, the materials are high-quality and truly luxurious. The pre-refresh model’s 0.8-inch center infotainment display is replaced with the wide-format 10.3-inch touchscreen. Sporting clean, high resolution graphics and intuitive software, the infotainment system includes capability for over-the-air updates.
The powertrain options remain basically the same, with only one change to write home about. The 2022 G70 can house the same 2.0-liter turbo-four and 3.3-liter twin-turbo V-6 options as the last model, however, the four-cylinder’s manual transmission option is no longer available. Additionally, there’s a new Sport+ setting with louder exhaust, more lenient traction and stability sections, and heavier steering.
2022 G80
In 2022, the G80 comes with one huge addition: the comeback of the G80 Sport. Pulling from the previous generation of the G80 Sport, the 2022 Genesis G80 sports subtle styling cues to set itself apart from the rest of the lineup, such as a unique font fascia, dark exterior trim, and trim-specific 21-inch wheels which are also available on the G70.
The interior is impressive as well, with the G80 Sport’s three-spoke steering wheel, aluminum or carbon-fiber interior trim, and Sport-specific seat quilting. The material quality is outstanding, with a cabin that emanates a tech-rich, high-luxury feel.
The refreshed Sport model operates with the same 3.5-liter twin-turbo V-6 as the original G80. However, the all-wheel drive is standard, the suspension is returned, and Genesis has rear-wheel steering available.
2022 G90
Genesis didn’t make any changes to its full-size sedan for 2022. The G90 was first introduced for the 2017 model year, and received a mid cycle refresh for 2020. The Genesis G90 was Genesis’ first model that featured the now-predominant pentagonal shield front grille.
Genesis’ largest four-door is a classic. The vehicle’s ride quality achieves a floaty feeling, without being disconnected, and its styling is sharp and distinctive. This sedan is easy to love and has a great feature-per-dollar value.
