The 2022 Porsche 718 Cayman is a spectacular automobile with dual transmission options, fun handling and extensive customization. But how does it compare to the 2022 Genesis G70, a vehicle which is well regarded for its lovely appearance, formidable V6 engine and outstanding warranty?
Design & Style
The Genesis G70 is a sophisticated sedan with a curvy and smooth exterior. The old six speed manual variant has been removed, and starting this year every edition comes with a standardized ten inch touch display. Slim strip LEDs can be seen in front with a classy black cabin that is covered in upmarket materials such as quilted upholstery, with the option to purchase red stitched style leather.
The Porsche 718 Cayman is a real gem. It uses a mid-engine layout with a suspension that has been masterfully tuned. Buyers get the option of a 6 or 4 cylinder engine, both of which allows for aggressive handling. Its newest features for this year include the advent of the GT4 RS as well as two new paint colors, which are Frozenberry Metallic and Shark Blue. New personalization options have also been made available such as leather accessories.
Technology & Safety
The Porsche 718 Cayman comes with numerous driver assistance features, like parking sensors for the back and front, adapted cruise control and blind area monitoring with carbon ceramic brakes. Its interior comforts include wifi, Apple CarPlay, a Burmester audio system with twelve speakers, and leather upholstery.
The Genesis G70 comes with all the driver assistance functions found in the Porsche, including parking sensors, blind area monitoring, emergency automated brakes and a camera with surround view. Its cabin comforts include powered frontal seats that can be cooled or heated, ten inch touch display and Apple CarPlay with an audio system from Lexicon.
Performance
The most powerful G70 is the V6, which is 3.3 liter, dual turbocharged and capable of generating 365 horsepower with the ability to accelerate from zero to sixty in just 4.5 seconds. Those that want the most powerful Porsche 718 Cayman will purchase the GT4 RS, which can generate an impressive 493 horsepower with the ability to accelerate from zero to sixty in 3.3 seconds. All its engines are wedded to a manual six speed transmission, which is regarded by many as being the best in the auto industry.
The Bottom Line
While the Genesis seats three more passengers than the Porsche, the 718 Cayman leaves the G70 in the dust when it comes to performance, and also has an edge in fuel economy. And when you consider the G70’s nonexistent manual, tight backseat and stiff riding experience in the majority of its variants, it becomes easy to see why the Porsche 718 Cayman wins.
