Video: underneath the G70

[soundman414]

I found this video, not in english (sorry), but it gives a really good look at the undercarriage of the G70 with underbody panels removed and wheel wheel covers removed. If anything, it's an interesting look at what most people won't see.

Nice find, thanks for that! Looks like he sprayed on some sort of repellent on it. Also interesting to see one of the joint seals having too big if a gap so that even the sealant didn't quite cover it.

I wonder if we'll see some aftermarket aluminum control arms for the rear suspension, hopefully some spherical bearing bushings too!

Check out Savage Geese's video for a detailed review of the underbody.

He didn't go quite this extensive and remove all the body panels and wheel wells.

I watched the rest of Savage's review. Not really sure the guy knows what he's talking about. Seems all over the place. Constantly comparing to the G80 for some reason. Quite silly.

He seems to think it is based on the G80 platform!

Well the G70 and Stinger platform is an evolution of the G80 platform. 2019 Genesis G70 vs. 2018 Kia Stinger: What’s the Difference? - Motor Trend Canada

Savagegeese does end with a very positive opinion of the G70. The bit with the guys from the Straight Pipes is funny.

Everything within a brand is an evolution of something else. The G80 is packaged differently especially suspension wise!

Interesting that the rear wheel well liners have what looks like white soundproofing on them, but the fronts don't, or it's black colored. If the fronts are a thin layer of plastic (you can tap on it with something hard) that could be a good place to cheaply and easily reduce road noise.

The G70 is completely unrelated to the G80, chassis-wise. It's built on a brand new compact platform called "C2." The midsize vehicles and up ride on a different architecture.
