The engine

Lambda

Twin-Turbo V6

A smooth, refined twin-turbo six that serves up an effortless wave of torque rather than a peaky rush, giving the G70 brisk, confident acceleration with luxury-grade composure.

Part of Hyundai Motor Group's all-aluminum Lambda V6 family that dates to 2005; this direct-injected twin-turbo version (code G6DP) debuted in the Genesis G80 and went on to power the Kia Stinger.

The Lambda family has powered Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis vehicles for over two decades, with the 3.3 turbo as its most potent member.
The same twin-turbo V6 is the engine that gave the Kia Stinger its grand-touring performance credentials.
With the limited-slip differential and rear drive, Genesis quotes a 0-62 mph time of around 4.7 seconds.
