Hyundai Australia has confirmed that the Genesis G70 is getting the finalising touches on it's suspension and chassis tuning which means it'll soon be revelaed globally.
Scott Grant, chief operating officer for Hyundai Australia had a few words to mention and it's quite promising.
“It’s a different product, obviously it’s a little bit smaller in size but it will be packed with performance credentials that mean the ownership and driving experience will be quite different from the G80,” Grant explained.
“I drive a Genesis now, it’s quite a large car, it’s beautifully finished, but it’s not necessarily a sporting drive where I think the G70 will have a more performance orientation.
“If you want to play in that [3 Series] game the luxury part is essential. But they’re not enough if you want to have a sports-oriented product, which is what the possibility is for this product.
“You have got to have the luxury but you’ve got to have the sports flavour to it. You can’t have one without the other.”
“I think there will be different buyers and a different experience completely,” he said of the G70 and G80 pair.
“So to what extent will they sit side by side? How far is it this way [cheaper] or is it a Y-strategy and equal in pricing?”
