G70, the newest sedan in the Genesis portfolio and recipient of an unprecedented 18 significant third-party industry awards for excellence since late 2018, was responsible for 11,901 sales, representing 56 percent overall. Bucking the downward sales trend in their respective segments, the G80 executive luxury sedan and G90 premium large luxury sedan continued to achieve strong sales for the brand.
