The very ritzy Genesis G90 defines opulence with a lengthy list of standard features, glittery performance cues, and a lavish cabin. This flagship sedan reflects a more glamourous iteration of the Hyundai Equus. (Hyundai is the parent company of the Genesis brand.) During a week-long test drive, the 124.4inch wheelbase G90 displayed graceful handling and powerful acceleration. While G90’s performance is incredibly impressive, this sedan’s dreamy interior is a showcase of top-notch materials and craftsmanship. The Genesis G90 is also an acoustic masterpiece, so occupants aren’t irritated by road, powertrain, or wind noise.

Genesis G90 offers two engine choices: a 3.3-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine releasing an estimated 365 horsepower at 6000 rpm/376 pounds-feet of torque between 1300-4500 rpm, or a 5.0-liter V8 producing an estimated 420 horsepower at 6000 rpm/383 pounds-feet of torque at 5000 rpm. (Both engines can be matched with the H-TRAC AWD system employing an electronic transfer case with active torque control.) G90’s long list of standard safety technologies includes automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, and a 360-degree multi-view monitor. The test-driven rear wheel drive G90 Ultimate with V8 mated to a second-generation 8-speed automatic transmission has an MSRP of $69,700 and estimated mpg of 16 city/24 highway.
