    “G70 continues to resonate with customers through its refined performance and engaging driving experience, making it our most popular Genesis sedan in North America,” said Tedros Mengiste, chief operating officer of Genesis Motor North America. “The Graphite trim builds on that appeal, offering a bold, distinctive option for drivers who value a daily fun-to-drive experience and a connection to the road.”

    The new G70 Graphite trim stands out with its Makalu Grey Matte exterior colour, accentuated by dark chrome detailing throughout the signature Crest Grille, window surrounds, and rear garnish. The look is completed with dark-finish 19-inch multi-spoke wheels, black mirror caps and black brake calipers, creating a dynamic and sophisticated presence.

    Inside, G70 Graphite offers a sanctuary of comfort and style. Exclusive Nappa Leather Ultramarine Blue upholstery is paired with orange contrast elements, creating a cabin that is both inviting and distinctive. The 12.3-inch full 3D digital instrument cluster further elevates the driving experience.

    [i] Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) is designed to assist drivers to avoid, or reduce the severity of, collisions with cars that have slowed or stopped in front of them. The system is not designed to detect certain stationary objects such as trees or poles, and may not detect all vehicles and pedestrians under certain road, weather and vehicle conditions. It is a supplemental assistance and does not replace the need for extreme care and attention by the driver. FCA may not stop the vehicle completely and will not avoid all collisions. The driver is responsible for being attentive and maintaining control of the vehicle, and should not wait for the system's alerts before braking as there may not be sufficient time to brake safely. See Owner’s Manual for details and limitations.

    [ii] Blind-Spot View Monitor (BVM) assists the driver in changing lanes by providing a live view of the blind spots on either side of the vehicle and an audible alert if another vehicle is detected. Turn signal must be activated, and other system limitations apply. Do not rely exclusively on BVM. It is the driver’s responsibility to be aware of the surroundings and ensure it is clear before changing lanes or directions. See Owner’s Manual for details and limitations.
