Support for this show comes from the Genesis GV70 Performance SUV. Every Genesis is a reminder

0:07.6

to try something bold to keep growing, keep hustling. At Genesis, they've harnessed all

that excitement of beginnings into their performance SUV, the GV70. It's a car built to turn

heads with stunning design inside and out. It's packed with intuitive technology inside,
