The exterior design shares cues from the other two Genesis models, the [[Genesis G80|G80]] and the [[Genesis G90|G90]]. The grille features Genesis' corporate design, with functional air intakes along the bottom and side.<ref name=":1">{{Cite news|url=http://www.motortrend.com/cars/genesis/g70/2019/2019-genesis-g70-first-drive-seoul-soul/|title=2019 Genesis G70 First Drive: From Seoul With Soul – Motor Trend|date=2017-09-25|work=Motor Trend|access-date=2017-12-06|language=en-US}}</ref> The [[Light-emitting diode|LED]] headlights operate with separate daytime running lights.<ref name=":0" /> The rear is said to have an athletic stance, framed by LED taillights and dual exhausts.<ref name=":1" />

==Facelift==
On September 8, 2020, Genesis announced a facelift G70, which went on sale in South Korean market on October 20, 2020. The facelift incorporates new corporate design cues from the [[Genesis GV80|GV80]] crossover SUV and [[Genesis G80#RG3|second generation G80]] sedan, including new front and rear bumpers, headlights, taillights, and a new grill design. Interior changes include an optional 10.25-inch (26cm) infotainment screen. Whereas the changes were generally well-received in the North American market, the changes were polarizing in the Korean market. Many evaluations were saying that the design of the previous model was better, and in particular, the taillights were criticized for looking forcibly inserted.
The facelift G70 was released as a 2022 model in the United States, where the optional manual transmission was discontinued.<ref name="C&D refresh">{{cite web | url = https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a33960544/2022-genesis-g70-revealed/| title = 2022 Genesis G70 Gets the Same Good Looks as G80 | last=Hofffman | first=Connor | date=September 9, 2020 | access-date=2021-01-22 | work=[[Car and Driver]] | language=en-US}}</ref> On May 19, 2023, Genesis released a refreshed G70 in the South Korean market. A 2.5-liter turbo-charged Smart-Stream G2.5 T-GDI engine replaced the old 2.0-liter turbo-charged Theta II T-GDI engine. Additional changes include a new touch screen climate control, rear view mirror and various trim updates.

== Shooting Brake ==
[[File:Genesis G70 Shooting Brake 1X7A5787.jpg|thumb|200x200px|G70 Shooting Brake]]
In May 2021, Genesis introduced a station wagon version of the G70 specifically for European markets, called the [[Shooting brake|Shooting Brake]]. The rear end underwent the biggest changes, where the roof is longer and slightly sloping. The trunk space is slightly larger than the sedan. Powertrain options are either a 2.0L turbo-charged Theta II gasoline engine or a 2.2L R II diesel engine, both of which are mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. Interior and exterior images of the G70 Shooting Brake were unveiled on May 12, 2021.<ref>{{Cite news|title=The G70 Shooting Brake is the first Genesis designed for Europe|work=《TopGear》|url=https://www.topgear.com/car-news/first-look/g70-shooting-brake-first-genesis-designed-europe|access-date=May 13, 2021}}</ref>
