Luxury Sedan Comparison: Genesis G70 vs. Lexus ES 250 and Acura TLX

The luxury sport sedan category features numerous compelling contenders, including the Genesis G70, the Lexus ES 250, and the Acura TLX. But with so many options, it can be difficult to determine which vehicle is best for you. Today, we will examine key areas including engine output, interior amenities, and safety features to help you decide which vehicle best suits your needs.

Performance

When a luxury sport sedan is done right, the power excites, the handling responds, and the experience stays with you. Let's see how these three sedans measure up:

• 2026 Genesis G70: The G70 offers drivers a choice between two dynamic engines: a 2.5L turbocharged l4 producing 300 horsepower, or a powerful 3.3L twin-turbocharged V6 generating 365 horsepower. Both engines are paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and paddle shifters.
• 2025 Lexus ES 250: The ES 250 features a single 2.5L 4-cylinder engine that produces 203 horsepower. Like the G70, it is equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission and paddle shifters.
• 2025 Acura TLX: The TLX offers drivers a choice between a 2.0L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that produces 272 horsepower or a 3.0L turbocharged V6 engine that produces 355 horsepower. Both engines come standard with a 10-speed automatic transmission. 

Interior

A luxurious cabin is more than just a place to sit – it's a sanctuary that enhances the driving experience. Let's compare the interiors of these sport sedans to find the most comfortable option:

• 2026 Genesis G70: The G70 features ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, a sunroof, and aluminum accents. Standard seats are upholstered in genuine leather, with the G70 3.3T Sport configuration featuring quilted Nappa leather upholstery. All G70 models come with an auto-dimming Inside Rearview Mirror, which improves nighttime visibility and reduces eye strain.
• 2025 Lexus ES 250: The ES 250 cabin features ventilated front seats, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, and a heated steering wheel. Seats are upholstered in Lexus’s NuLuxe synthetic leather material.
• 2025 Acura TLX: The TLX’s cabin features LED ambient lighting and ventilated front seats. Both genuine leather and synthetic suede upholstery appear. An auto-dimming rearview mirror and heated steering wheel also come standard. 

Technology

From infotainment systems to remote functionality, a luxury vehicle’s technology can have a significant impact on your day-to-day experience. Let’s take a closer look at the technology inside each of these sport sedans:

• 2026 Genesis G70: The G70 offers a suite of technological features, including Android Auto™, Apple CarPlay®, and Bluetooth® audio compatibility. A 10.25" infotainment display and a 6-speaker audio system come standard. Each G70 also comes with 5 years of complimentary access to Genesis Connected Services, which includes features such as Digital Key, remote start, and Google Local Search integration for your infotainment display.
• 2025 Lexus ES 250: Equipped with a standard 8" infotainment display or an available 12.3" upgrade, the ES 250 offers a suite of digital features. Like the G70, the ES 250 integrates with your mobile device through Android Auto™, Apple CarPlay®, and Bluetooth® audio compatibility. The ES 250 also comes with a 3-year trial of Remote Connect, which allows owners to remotely start their engine, lock their door, and more.
• 2025 Acura TLX: Like the G70 and ES 250, the TLX offers Android Auto™, Apple CarPlay®, and Bluetooth® audio compatibility. The TLX also comes with a 12.3" infotainment display. However, the infotainment system has fewer features than its G70 counterpart. Similarly, the AcuraLink Connect Package (which offers similar features to Connected Services and Remote Connect) only comes with a 1-year trial, which is shorter than the G70’s 5-year trial period.

Safety

Safety is paramount in any vehicle. Fortunately, all three of these vehicles offer a range of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) to keep passengers safe. Let's take a closer look:

• 2026 Genesis G70: The G70 comes equipped with a suite of ADAS features, including Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, Lane Following Assist, Lane Keeping Assist, Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist, and Brake Assist. 
• 2025 Lexus ES 250: The ES 250 offers a range of ADAS features, including Lane Departure Alert, Lane Tracing Assist, Brake Assist, and Front-to-Front Risk Detection.
• 2025 Acura TLX: The TLX comes with ADAS features, such as Forward Collision Warning, Lane Departure Warning, and Road Departure Mitigation.
