The Genesis G70 is set to receive a substantial makeover, as evidenced by a prototype recently spotted testing in the Austrian Alps. The G70 only arrived for 2019, but Genesis wants to update the styling so it matches up with the rest of the cars in the automaker's lineup, namely the new G80 and GV80.

Key among the changes will be the adoption of Genesis’ quad-element lighting theme, where each light cluster is split to give the effect of four individual elements, front and rear. Another signature element of Genesis’ latest styling theme is a large mesh grille in the shape of a crest. Also visible on the prototype is a new design for the side vents located behind each of the front wheels.

Likewise, the interior should also be updated to match the latest models in the Genesis lineup. The dash is likely to become less cluttered and will feature a digital instrument cluster and larger infotainment screen. That digital instrument cluster should pick up Continental’s new 3D graphics, which are already used in the GV80.

It isn’t clear what mechanical mods are planned. A bump in horsepower for the current 252hp 2.0L turbocharged inline-4 is possible. The current 365hp 3.3L twin-turbocharged V-6 will likely carry over so the G70’s V-6 doesn't trounce the 375 hp of the newly developed 3.5L twin-turbocharged V-6 in the G80.

It also isn’t clear if there will be an increase in pricing. Look for the updated G70 to arrive in 2021 as a ’22 model.

SEMA Show
Show organizers are actively working with leading experts to develop standards and protocols that will create an optimal environment to conduct business while emphasizing the health and well being of those at the event.

Registration for the 2020 SEMA Show, Tuesday-Friday, November 3–6, at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, is available at www.SEMAShow.com/register.

The annual gathering featuring automotive innovation is set to take place in the fall at a time when analysts anticipate the marketplace will begin its path to recovery, positioning the SEMA Show to be vital in helping businesses move toward a successful 2021. Show organizers are actively working with leading experts to develop standards and protocols that will create an optimal environment to conduct business while emphasizing the health and well being of those at the event.

The SEMA Show’s annual booth space selection process began earlier this month with more than 1,800 exhibiting companies participating. The Show is comprised of 12 individual industry sectors and affords buyers the opportunity to find products to build their core business or venture into new areas of growth with complimentary product and service offerings. Education, new products and trend spotting are the typical draws at the event and this year will continue based on the support the industry has shown thus far.

“We know the SEMA Show this year will be fundamental to helping businesses connect and move forward. We take that role very seriously, but not at the expense of the health and safety of the industry,” said Tom Gattuso, SEMA vice president of events. “We’re confident that we will build a suitable environment that gives people certainty that they are not at risk to congregate, yet still allows us to leverage the Show’s position on the calendar to help the industry recover more quickly.”

Gattuso notes that the 2020 SEMA Show will likely look different from previous SEMA Shows, but assures the industry that the high levels of value and quality of business to which visitors are accustomed will remain the same.
