Genesis G70

The Genesis G70 blends sleek, low-slung styling with a cabin that feels more bespoke than bargain-bin, delivering driver-focused dynamics that make long runs and twisty roads equally entertaining. With premium materials, thoughtful tech and a value proposition that nudges past its German rivals, it’s the kind of compact executive that feels serious but doesn’t take itself too seriously.

Alpine A390

The Alpine A390 is the brand’s leap into the fast electric crossover arena, wrapping Dieppe’s lightweight ethos in a sleek, coupe-ish body with real everyday usability. If the steering and chassis feel echo the A110, this could be the enthusiast’s family EV—subtle, sharp, and très chic, with enough theatre to make the school run feel like a pit lane exit.
