Comparison Review

Comfort
The Genesis G70 offers rear passengers about the same space to stretch out as the Hyundai Sonata with comparable rear head- and legroom in both vehicles. The Hyundai Sonata will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Genesis G70.

Convenience
With the Hyundai Sonata you will definitely be making less frequent stops at the gas station than with the Genesis G70, due to its tank size and fuel economy.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Genesis G70 will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Hyundai Sonata, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
The Genesis G70 is about the same width as the Hyundai Sonata. The Genesis G70 is slightly shorter than the Hyundai Sonata, which may make it easier to park.

Handling
The Genesis G70 has a larger turning radius than the Hyundai Sonata, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Genesis G70 has a much more powerful engine than the Hyundai Sonata. However, something you should consider is that higher horsepower engines often command higher insurance premiums.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the engine of the Genesis G70 does a much better job of transmitting power to the wheels than the Hyundai Sonata.

Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Genesis G70 and the Hyundai Sonata.
