From the side, the GV70 gets an arching line - Genesis calls it Parabolic Line - which stretches from the quad lamp setup and extends all the way to the rear fenders. The roofline is coupe-ish with a dropping chrome line towards the C-Pillar.
The rear once again makes use of quad lamps which are far sleeker here. Genesis states that all functional elements are set in the bumper to complete a clean profile from this side which also sports a vertical shaped muffler and a body-colored diffuser.
There is also going to be a GV70 Sport on offer which has its own unique highlights which include a 21-inch, G-Matrix pattern-applied wheels, dark chrome garnishes and a large diameter exhaust.
Genesis has paid extra attention to how the GV70 stands and because the brand is looking at making a mark in the luxury SUV segment, it will form a core part of its product offensive in key markets like the United States. "The audaciously designed new GV70 breaks new ground for Genesis through purity of design execution," states SangYup Lee, Senior Vice President and Head of Global Genesis Design. "This follows the Genesis G80 and GV80 which demonstrated the perfect balance of our design identity 'Athletic Elegance,'"
The SUV will start arriving for the US customer in 2021.
