The 2019 Genesis G70 is yet another mid-sized luxury performance sedan designed to take on the Germans.

After initially restricting the Genesis luxury brand to only a select number of dealers, Hyundai came to the revelation that more distribution leads to better sales and has decided that now Genesis models can be sold to through any Hyundai dealer.

Hyundai finally made Genesis its own standalone luxury brand, and while that will leave a lot of luxury car buyers wondering “What the hell is Genesis?”, it also means the company can do pretty much whatever it wants.

The number of cars with manual transmissions is dwindling to the point where they are like a small oasis in a dry and cracked desert of automatics. But through the dust emerges a new hero: The 2019 Genesis G70, with an option of three pedals instead of two.

Genesis debuted in the U.S. as a separate nameplate in 2016 with the G80 and G90, before unleashing the G70 late last year as they began an aggressive challenge to established rivals like Audi and BMW.

“Come at the king, you best not miss.” That’s what Omar said, and it applies in scenarios like this one. The king is the BMW 3 Series, the midsize sport sedan everyone buys. And these days it has more challengers coming at it than ever. Meet the latest and most different one yet: the 2018 Genesis G70, the first…

We’re very close to seeing the 2018 Genesis G70, but if these screengrabs, taken from an allegedly leaked promotional video, are anything to go by then it seems we’re in good hands. They’re grainy and black-and-white, but they do show a sporty looking sedan with a nice, big front grille.

Genesis, which is Hyundai’s newly launched, standalone luxury brand, isn’t just about executive sedans, despite its first two offerings, the G80 and the G90. Now the entry-level sedan, the G70, will make its official debut very soon. Here it is.

The woman crossing the street, holding her small daughter’s hand, squinted at the grille of my Genesis G80 while it waited at a red light. Behind the wheel, I watched her face.
