  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

G70 Brochure, not a USA version.

It's not the Canadian one at least; that brochure is available >here<.

I think it may be an unannounced market, an existing market translated to English, or a prototype brochure. I think it's the Korean brochure translated to English for these reasons:
- Refers to trims with "Supreme"
- Has diesel engine
- Has non-NA color names
- Picture texts are in Korean (Canada brochure has English)
- Mentions Kakao, the Korean voice recognition/navigation
- Mentions highway driving assist (this feature isn't mentioned in NA specs)
 
Good catch, I went to the bottom of the brochure to see if I could find the source. No luck. If you shorten the link you can see other brochures from other manufacturers. Pretty cool site. First G70 brochure I’ve seen it all.

Thanks for the link to the Canadian Brochure. Kind of tells me they may have more than two interior choices, which was all I had on my G90 purchase. I sure wish the diesel would come to North America. I read the diesel specs. It should pass emissions here. The engine does use a urea additive. However that doesn’t necessarily mean it will pass US in emissions. Mazda had a long hard battle to get a diesel engine into one of their vehicles. As of April California E missions board finally gave Mazda the go ahead. Here’s an article.

curious to see if this will surpass mpg and if it will get a lot of sales from the Equinox Diesel that's the only diesel in the segment right now. I will be surprised if it gets north of 40 mpg, which is what the Equinox is rated for.

Terrain is diesel, as well. Of course, they're sister vehicles. I have one, but I opted for the 2L turbo. Diesel reviews just didn't speak to me.

I work for GM, so last year I was at their training ground at Fontana Speedway, and they had us drive the pre-production diesel Equinox...on a AutoX track, pretty surprised honestly, especially vs the Honda, Toyota and Fords, did not drive the Koreans.
 
It’s the South Korean brochure. It uses “KRW” a few times. KRW is the abbrevation for the “Won” which is their unit of currency.

That's pretty cool! I love my Terrain. Everything I read said the turbo was just more fun than the diesel and I wanted fun more than I cared about mpg. I still get great gas mileage. Much better than I'll get with the 3.3T G70. Once again though, I'm here for the fun.
 
Ed Okin,
Thanks, I missed that while I was reading the brochure. I still hope we have Multiple interior color options.

I also missed the Kakao talk reference. Which is the Korean version of Skype/WeChat/WhatsApp etc
