Earlier this month, Genesis Canada revealed the G70 Track Day Special Concept— a striking, one-off vehicle that showcases the brand’s ongoing passion for high-performance engineering and luxury craftsmanship. Thanks to Genesis Canada PR team, we now access to a detailed photo gallery featuring 40 images of this impressively designed and undeniably remarkable vehicle.
A Canadian-Exclusive Premiere with Global Inspiration
Making its global debut in Canada this spring, the G70 Track Day Special Concept draws inspiration from the Genesis Track Taxi Nordschleife, a thrilling ride-along experience based in Germany that puts the G70 sport sedan to the test on the legendary Nürburgring Nordschleife.
This new concept celebrates the emotional and experiential side of Genesis—but like many before it, it’s a statement piece rather than a showroom offering.
Performance-Inspired, Track-Ready Design
Styled with the same low, aggressive stance as the Nordschleife-spec Track Taxi, the concept features functional enhancements like:
- Hood air vents for engine cooling
- Front and rear tow cables for racing authenticity
- A large rear wing for added downforce
- “Nordschleife” graphics on the front fenders and rear for unmistakable identity
Underneath, it rides on 19-inch Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires and shares the suspension setup and wheel design of the Track Taxi, promising genuine track-capable performance—on paper, at least.
A Familiar Pattern: Genesis Dazzles, But Doesn’t Deliver
Genesis has earned praise for its consistent delivery of bold concept vehicles, blending luxury and motorsport DNA in compelling ways. However, enthusiasts are beginning to notice a pattern: these exciting designs rarely make it to production.
The G70 Track Day Special Concept continues this trend. While it brings a fresh interpretation to the Genesis G70’s high-performance potential and wears a visually stunning livery with nods to the original orange-colored Track Taxi, it remains a concept-only creation—a beautiful showcase that sparks excitement but leaves performance purists wanting more.
Where Passion Meets Possibility—But Not Reality (Yet)
Genesis describes this as part of an “emotionalizing” strategy—a way to connect more deeply with automotive enthusiasts and performance drivers. And while the G70 Track Day Special Concept certainly stirs emotions, it also raises questions: Will Genesis ever turn these passionate visions into actual models customers can buy?
For now, the G70 Track Day Special Concept remains yet another dream car from Genesis, thrilling to see, fascinating to discuss—but still just out of reach.
