Genesis today announced the launch of the G70 Prestige Graphite, an exclusive new trim for the North American market. Genesis claims this is another sport-oriented option for the brand’s compact luxury car.


“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 Prestige 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 exterior of the G70 Prestige Graphite comes finished in a Ceres Blue exterior color that is exclusive to the trim. There is dark chrome on the Crest Grille, window surrounds, and rear garnish. Rounding out the exterior, there are dark-finish 19-inch multi-spoke wheels, black mirror caps, and black brake calipers.


Inside, the G70 Prestige Graphite includes exclusive Nappa Leather Ultramarine Blue upholstery with orange contrast elements. Of course, the focal point inside is the 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster.


Power for the G70 Prestige Graphite comes from the car’s larger engine option, a 3.3L Twin-Turbocharged V6 making 365 hp and 376 lb-ft of torque. There is a sport ECS with 10mm height reduction for improved cornering capability.


Pricing for the 2026 Genesis G70 Prestige Graphite starts at $58,295 including destination charges for rear-wheel drive models. All-wheel drive versions of the G70 Prestige Graphite begins at $60,295, once again including destination charges.
