Genesis has unveiled the 2020 G90 sedan at the LA Auto Show. The 2020 G90 gets what Genesis calls new-car-level design changes on the exterior and interior. Genesis says the 2020 G90 formally introduces the next evolution of the Genesis signature design language.
If electrification hits the reset button on what "luxury" means in automotive, then Genesis may have come up with the perfect car to change the story from what the big German firms are offering. Hyundai's luxe arm has been chipping away at the full-size prestige and sports sedan segments in recent years, with mixed success, but it might take an altogether different car to really stand out.
Genesis has unveiled a concept car at the New York Auto Show that is called the Mint Concept that it says introduces a new "typology" for the premium city car. The car has a simple and attractive exterior design and a "decluttered" interior that is minimalist and premium at the same time. The Mint Concept is an electric luxury city car that is designed to be a lightweight runabout that has a new shape for a city car that Genesis says is tailored to the modern lifestyle.
Genesis has revealed the 2020 Genesis G90, the refreshed and redesigned luxury sedan that sits as the flagship of the South Korean automaker's range. Promising crisper styling that's more memorable and distinctive, the new 2020 G90 paves the way for Genesis' big push into SUVs, with three planned by 2021.
Back in March, Sega announced a new mega compilation of Genesis games called - what else? - Sega Genesis Classics. At the time, the release was only confirmed for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC, with a Switch version mysteriously missing from Sega's announcement. Last month, Sega righted that particular wrong by confirming a Switch version of Sega Genesis Classics, and today we're finding out when it will arrive.
Genesis has priced up the 2019 G70, and the fiesty sports sedan has the BMW 3 Series firmly in its sights. Headed to dealerships this week, the G70 will be priced from $34,900 plus destination, and attempt to lure in enthusiastic drivers with its manual gearbox option.
It's proving to be a surprisingly big day for retro consoles. Sony kicked things off by announcing the PlayStation Classic, a mini console modeled after the very first PlayStation with 20 pre-loaded games, and now Sega has delivered an update on its Mega Drive Mini. Unfortunately, it isn't a particularly good update.
For Genesis, being a three-year-old car brand is a blessing and a curse. The automaker, currently riding high on first reports about the all-new 2019 Genesis G70, is Hyundai's play to compete with some of the most respected names in the auto industry: Audi, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz. If it's to stand a chance, however, it needs more than just better-quality leather and sharper styling to recommend it.
The 2019 Genesis G70 has a couple of problems, but underwhelming on the road - or indeed on the track - isn't one of them. Making a play for the fiercely competitive midsize luxury sedan segment, it has some strong credentials in its favor: not least a proven platform, punchy engines, and all the complementary luxe we've come to expect from pretenders to the 3 Series throne. Now, all it needs to do is confound expectations about a badge that's still a relative mystery among potential drivers.
Around the world, there are millions of us who count gaming as our favorite pastime. Many of us have played hundreds or thousands of games over the years, but few are quite as important as the game that started it all; the game that introduced us to this wonderful, expensive hobby. I want to know: What was that introductory title for you? What was the first video game you ever played?
Genesis has rolled out its 2019 G70 at the New York Auto Show and the car looks cool. The G70 aims at the entry-level luxury segment and slots into the Genesis range beneath the G80 and G90 cars. The G70 will come to the US with three powertrain configurations and five trim packages.
Genesis is forging its own path, trying to carve out a segment of the luxury market without riding on the coat-tails of Hyundai and Kia, and it needed a figurehead car. That's just what the South Korean automaker delivered at the New York International Auto Show this week in the shape of the Genesis Essentia Concept. While the new 2019 G70 might be the production car, it's an all-electric performance Gran Turismo to which the responsibility to make Genesis a respected brand falls.
