__What’s New for 2023?__ 

The Genesis G90 is an all-new generation for 2023, with major updates to its styling, powertrain, and luxury appointments.  New from the ground up, the Genesis G90 is the flagship in the luxury automakers’ fleet and a worthy adversary for top-notch models from Germany and Japan. Where the previous generation G90 emphasized value, the new Genesis emphasizes content and quality with value served as a delightful side dish.

### Overview:

![2023-genesis-g90-overview-image](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/3INb4IQxAie3Lv3XK0VbDv/3a52b3ab9f7ec26cdfbaa7b172815562/2023-genesis-g90-overview-image.jpg)

The G90 is the flagship model of Hyundai’s premium brand. Genesis has thrown everything at this model with luxury features not found on any other car costing less than six figures. The Genesis G90 has a premium feel on par with the absolute top of the class. For comfort, ride quality, tech features, active safety, and material quality, the G90 is a contender regardless of price, and when you consider the value per dollar the G90 is an even more intriguing offering.

The model is aimed squarely at the [Mercedes-Benz S-Class](https://www.autolist.com/mercedes+benz-s+class), [BMW 7-series](https://www.autolist.com/bmw-7+series), [Audi A8](https://www.autolist.com/audi-a8), and [Lexus LS](https://www.autolist.com/lexus-ls+500). Likely buyers of any of these models should take a spin in the Genesis G90 before ponying up for any offering from the better-known manufacturers. 

For the second generation G90, Genesis has pulled out all the stops. They have added a more refined twin-turbo V6 powertrain, bolder styling including a massive shield front grille, and ultra-luxury level features, materials, and technology.

### Overall Score: 4.3/5 stars

#### Driving Experience: 4/5 stars

![2023-genesis-g90-driving-image](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/TLSNyFm13PzGOCNXKaEtX/63ee52436f45428c17e8a0f989142dac/2023-genesis-g90-driving-image.jpg)

The base 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 offers adequate acceleration, while the E-supercharged model ups the power level to plentiful. Though the G90 is no sports car, it is capable of 0-60 miles per hour in just of five seconds. 

For a vehicle of its size, the G90 is easy to maneuver in tight spaces. The 8-speed automatic transmission shifts smoothly and generally is in the right gear at the right time. 

The steering feel is nearly effortless and the brakes haul the land yacht down from speed with reasonable quickness. 

The G90 offers a smooth ride even among luxury sedans. Base trims are equipped with electronic adjusting suspension. Top-trim models have air suspension and a Chauffer mode which further minimizes bumps. 

From the driver’s seat, visibility is good, with only a slight blind spot due to thick c-pillars. Power-operated side and rear curtains let passengers decide whether the outside world can see in. 

As far as driving dynamics, the G90 clearly prioritizes smoothness over sportiness, with less-than-thrilling performance statistics, but more than enough power and agility for daily transport and highway cruising in absolute comfort.

#### Safety Features: 4.5/5 stars

![2023-genesis-g90-safety-image](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/7amyhgAEG9eMjOsJYKWdEw/c242ebbf1dd6b441cb8a40ae9205820e/2023-genesis-g90-safety-image.jpg)

The 2023 Genesis G90 received a Top Safety Pick+ designation from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), positioning it as one of the safest cars in its class.

The G90 has not yet received crash test ratings from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) 

Genesis includes generous safety and driver assistance features on every G90 including blind-spot monitoring, lane departure warning, lane-keeping assist, forward collision prevention, automatic emergency braking, and pedestrian detection.

Adaptive cruise control with lane-following assist and stop-and-go technology is also standard for semi-autonomous driving.

One of the few knocks on the G90 is its headlights which were rated second-tier Acceptable by the IHS, despite having automatic high beam assist.

#### Value: 5/5 stars

![2023-genesis-g90-value-image](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/QdGSPVcqb9Wmc28qjD7i8/1b016ef086d4dabd557ab079f614cade/2023-genesis-g90-value-image.jpg)

To say a car that starts at over $90,000 dollars is a value may be hard to stomach, but the Genesis G90 offers as much or more than competitors in almost every category but costs much less than similarly equipped luxury sedans.

Being the brand’s flagship sedan, the Genesis G90 has very few options and lots of standard equipment and features. Even when all boxes are checked, the value-for-money proposition is excellent for the class.  

The Genesis brand is among the youngest luxury brands, so it is harder to project long-term reliability. The drivetrain included in the base model Genesis is largely shared with the GV70 SUV, which has been on the market longer.

Genesis matches Hyundai's industry-leading warranty with five-year/60,000-mile limited warranty coverage as well as 10-year/100,000 powertrain coverage for additional peace of mind.  Three-year complimentary maintenance is also included.

#### Tech Features: 4.5/5 stars

![2023-genesis-g90-tech-image](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/WNqyRfO0CjYvteUYRaql0/e55f234c4b857ef54b2d5af2bd13d51a/2023-genesis-g90-tech-image.jpg)

In base Standard trim, with the normal powertrain, the Genesis G90 has everything you would expect from a luxury car and more.  Standard features include a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment with built-in navigation, satellite radio, 15-speaker Bang & Olufsen premium audio system, head-up display, active noise canceling, digital key, front wireless charging, power-closing doors, and a fingerprint authentication system

A  Mood Curator with four selectable modes can control settings like the power window curtains, in-cabin scent, ambient lighting, massage, and music.

The only thing missing from the G90’s tech are wireless versions of Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, both require a wired connection.  This is a small gripe, but in a car at this level, wireless connectivity should be expected.

E-Supercharged models include upgraded features like a 23-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system with Concert Hall mode and rear seat wireless device charging.

#### Practicality: 4.5/5 stars

![2023-genesis-g90-practicality-image](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/3vVhUMEkCSiMueRBGuxIaB/33afba8275ae383cbb844dc6dff04428/2023-genesis-g90-practicality-image.jpg)

The Genesis G90 has comfortable seating for up to five, with spacious front and rear seat accommodations. 

The Genesis G90 has 12 cubic feet of trunk space with the standard engine and just over 10.5 with the E-Supercharged powertrain. This is about the same as the [Mercedes S-Class](https://www.autolist.com/mercedes+benz-s+class) and [Audi A8](https://www.autolist.com/audi-a8), but well behind the 19 cubic feet of the class leader, the [BMW 7-Series](https://www.autolist.com/bmw-7+series).

There are plenty of cubbies and small storage areas around the cabin for smaller personal items, though some super-luxury features are absent, like heated and cooled cupholders. 

A remote parking assist feature can help squeeze the big-bodied sedan into tighter spaces via remote from outside the vehicle.

#### Styling & Design: 4.5/5 stars

![2023-genesis-g90-styling-image](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/2co09rrlunMHvRSSSUg6tZ/3494edadf9841e9771166387dc3bd061/2023-genesis-g90-styling-image.jpg)

The interior and exterior are completely redesigned and the appearance and materials match those of any competitor in the segment. The G90 has premium specs from the panoramic sunroof and microfiber headliner to 20-inch alloy wheels and from a crest-shaped grille to LED taillights.

Front seats are supremely comfortable with massage, heat, and cooling. Rear seats get standard heat and reclining features. The cabin is whisper-quiet with standard active noise cancellation.

Materials are opulent with matte wood finishes, Nappa leather, and metal trim pieces. An available forged carbon fiber trim is like nothing else offered in the class.

Built-in sanitization and fragrance diffuser keep the interior air clean and sweet-smelling. Three-zone climate control is also standard.

Genesis has hit out of the park with a car that matches models from prestige brands but undercuts them significantly in cost.

E-Supercharged models get extra features, rear passengers get ventilated and massaging seats, upgraded power close doors, 21-inch wheels, and a smooth-riding air suspension.

#### Fuel Efficiency: 3/5 stars

![2023-genesis-g90-fuel-image](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/4QK7RQJF5IQ7Vd1uKu315Q/de60c5b49d6c831fe26353e2ecfa2b0f/2023-genesis-g90-fuel-image.jpg)

In base trim, the non-hybrid version of the G90 gets an EPA-estimated 18 MPG city and 26 MPG highway. The higher-power hybrid model reduces fuel economy slightly to 17 MPG city and 24 MPG during highway driving.

Though buyers in this segment probably are less concerned with fuel economy, the G90 is below average for the segment. The six-cylinder [S-Class](https://www.autolist.com/mercedes+benz-s+class) gets 21 MPG city and 30 highway, the [Audi A8](https://www.autolist.com/mercedes+benz-s+class) gets 19 city and 28 highway MPG, and the [BMW 740i](https://www.autolist.com/bmw-7+series) gets 25 MPG city and 31 highway. 

In some real-world testing, reviewers found higher-than-expected fuel efficiency numbers.

#### What’s it Going to Cost Me?

![2023-genesis-g90-cost-image](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/1u05nVMRq9yJv6PrDySWRn/55eaf7e66f91d99ae570c372b2ae7a7c/2023-genesis-g90-cost-image.jpg)

There are only two trim levels available for the Genesis G90 and they come loaded with features. In fact, there are no real options for either trim, aside from paint and interior colors and appointments.

The __entry-level G90__ is the 3.5T AWD in Standard trim, which starts at a base price of $90,100 including destination fees. In this trim, you get the 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine with 375 horsepower paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and standard AWD. The suspension is electronically adjustable and includes a road monitoring camera to spot and prepare for bumps. 

Outside, the exterior features 20-inch alloy wheels, a panoramic sunroof, power closing doors, power hands-free trunk operation, active noise canceling, and power-folding mirrors with logo puddle lamps.

Inside passengers are treated to soft Nappa leather, matte wood trim, a leatherette-covered dash, microfiber headliner, and front passenger seats feature heat, ventilation, massage, and power operation. Rear seat passengers get heated seats and a center console-mounted screen to control many functions of the HVAC and infotainment systems. Mood Curator, antibacterial package, and power sunshades keep the interior pristine and peaceful.

Standard tech features include a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, satellite radio, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, 15-speaker Bang & Olufsen, head-up display, front wireless charger, and fingerprint authentication system.

Standard safety and driver assistance features include forward collision avoidance assist, lane keeping assist, lane following assist, blind-spot collision avoidance, blind-spot view monitor, rear cross-traffic collision avoidance assist, smart cruise control with stop-and-go technology, speed limit assist, driver attention monitoring, automatic high beams, 360-degree camera, parking distance warning, parking collision avoidance, remote parking assist, safe exit assist, and back seat occupant alert.

Stepping up to the __G90 3.5 E-Supercharger AWD Standard__ trim adds the mild hybrid system and electric supercharger, increasing power output to 409 horsepower. This also adds rear-wheel steering, multi-chamber air suspension, and larger 21-inch wheels. 

Upgraded tech features include a 23-speaker Bang & Olufsen audio system, rear seat wireless charger, power-adjustable rear seats with massage and ventilation, and easy-close power doors. Inside, the forged carbon fiber trim replaces wood in some color schemes.

Additional cost options include premium paints for $575 and matte paint colors for $1500. A $45 first aid kit is the loan accessory available according to Genesis’ online configurator. 

At a price this low (comparatively), we would spring for the E-Supercharger model, maybe even the extra cost of one of the matte paint finishes, and throw in the first aid kid.

A G90 Long Wheelbase aimed at Mercedes-Maybach, Rolls Royce, and Bentley is currently offered in Korea and rumored to be destined for U.S. shores. If the G90 just isn’t big, bold, or expensive enough for your budget, it may be worth waiting to see if the longer version makes a North American debut.

Genesis' G90 has been completely redesigned for the 2023 model year, bringing with it a substantial styling update inside and out, a silky new twin-turbo V6 under the hood, and features normally reserved for $100,000-plus luxury sedans -- at a price far lower than that.
