Where better to kick off this comparison than with the performance of the 2021 Genesis G70 and INFINITI Q50?
The standard 3.0L V6 twin-turbocharged engine of the Q50 is certainly impressive, but the G70 provides a bit more variety in the form of two unique engine options.
Standard on the G70 is a 2.0L turbocharged inline 4-cylinder engine. Capable of 252 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, there’s more than enough there to pack a punch on the open road. If you need a bit more power, however, you can opt for the available 3.3L Twin Turbocharged V6 engine. With it, you’ll see a jaw-dropping 365 horsepower and 376 lb-ft of torque to truly make you a force to be reckoned with.
Paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission—compared to the automatic 7-speed transmission of the Q50—the G70 takes it a step ahead of the competition when it comes to standard fuel economy.

Even with the available all-wheel drive options of both models, the fuel economy of the G70 manages to outdo that of the Q50.
Both sedans earn the luxury tag with their interior cabins. Each comes equipped with enough comfort and convenience features that’ll make you happy to climb inside every time.
In the Genesis G70 and INFINITI Q50, comfort starts in the front seat. While both provide power adjustable front seating, the G70 takes it up a notch with standard front power lumbar support as well as optional front seat power memory and heated settings.
When it comes to interior technology, both come standard with the latest and greatest integrative technology, like Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. Both also feature 8-inch multimedia touchscreen displays.
Once again, however, the 2021 G70 manages to pull ahead of the competition with a number of available, unique tech features like:
While you can expect luxurious comfort in both the 2021 Genesis G70 and INFINITI Q50, the added comfort, convenience, and tech features of the G70 are hard to pass on.

Electronic Stability Control, Brake Assist, and Traction Control System are some of the safety features standard in both sedans.
Unsurprisingly, the G70 takes the advantage again with an impressive collection of standard safety systems to set it apart.
Some of those systems include:
So, while both sedans have plenty of intelligent safety features to keep you and your passengers properly protected, the additional systems of the G70 can help you drive with a bit more peace of mind when you get behind the wheel.
