While the GV80 continues leaking ahead of its long awaited debut, looks like Genesis is hurrying up to update and finalize new models, like updating the Genesis G70 which is going to receive a mid-term facelift and today we have the first interior pictures where the sedan still uses the tradicional gearbox knob instead of the new rotary gear selector that the GV80 will premiere.

What we know so far?

Looking at the pictures, we can expect big changes for the sedan, and despite the spy pictures showed a high level of camouflage, we can see the addition of Genesis latest reinterpretation of its grille, with the Crest Grille, new headlights following what we have seen on the G90 facelift and spy shots of GV80, G80 or GV70, and also an updated tailights that look very similar to the current model, but now are divided by a line in order to have the same aspect as the family members.

On the powertrain side, we can expect updated engines, like the recently launched new Theta III 2.5-liter Turbo with 304 hp and Lambda III 3.5-liter Turbo with 380 hp. A new wet DCT 8-speed transmission will be added as well as updated infotainment system and latest safety features.

What do you expect about the refreshed Genesis G70? Stay tuned for more details soon!
