Click here to watch our review on the 2017 Genesis G90:
• 2017 Genesis G90 3.3T ...
#Genesis may still be the youngest luxury brand in America, but parent company Hyundai has some fast moving plans to overtake its competitors in the next couple years. The flagship #GenesisG90 was the first model to bear the Genesis badge, but for 2020, the #G90 gets the most extensive updates you'll see just short of a full redo. A new look outside helps the car stand out more, while the inside has been upgraded with better tech and all the same luxury you expect in a much more pricey European car.

[@theredline]

Happy Friday guys! This car gets us pumped to drive the 2021 GV80 and G80. Genesis says we should be driving both in mid-summer. Stay tuned and hope you all stay safe out there!

This was a SUPER review. I took delivery of a 2020 G80 5.0 AWD Ultimate edition in March, 2020. As you know, the V8 was discontinued soon after that. I LOVE the sound and feel of the V8. The twin turbo V6 I test-drove was plenty SNAPPY, but the V8 walks away at higher speed, PLUS, it just SOUNDS SO GOOD !

Sweet V8 music! If my Dad were still with us, this is the car he’d want. He was a lifelong Cadillac driver, but these days there’s no Caddy he would even consider. One thing you didn’t mention is the 10 year, 100,000 mile powertrain warranty. Luxury and peace of mind! Thanks again Sofyan!

[@marco.morel04]

@@andrew.woolman7449 Hyundai doesn't honor their warranty if you don't have service records for the vehicle or you cant prove that within the warranty period that it was ONLY serviced by a dealer. I had my Kia Sorento serviced by a dealer only and when the AWD system failed at 111,000 miles (11,000) passed warranty. I took it to the dealer and they quoted me $3,000 dollars and I couldn't afford that. I was a little frustrated so I got a loaner and left my Sorento there while I thought if it was worth it to fix it or get another car. The next day I get a call from Kia corporate and they told me as a thank you for always having my vehicle serviced at the dealership they will fix my vehicle under an extended warranty and they have extended my warranty to 135,000 miles because I was never late on maintenance and it was always done by their dealerships. It currently has 178,000 miles on it and no issues have occurred since. I'm 100% getting another Hyundai product after this one dies

[@jsfbay1]

It’s illegal to require dealer service (unless they figured out a way around the law.)

Finally got my 2020 G90 5.0 Ultimate. Only took 4 months and a pandemic. Ordered a 2020 to replace my 2017 G90 in January and got it two weeks ago. LOVE IT. White with the Beige/Havana interior. This is the best car that nobody knows about. They have a great car but when you say you have a Genesis their first question is, "who makes that?" Then you say Hyundai and you get a funny look. Had the same issue with my 2017 G90 that I just traded in for this one.

[@stephenhendricks103]

It's important to keep in mind that the G90's market isn't aimed only, or even principally, at the North American market. It's an "executive" sedan in the Asian and European tradition meant to be chauffeured. Thus, the most important seat isn't the driver's; it's the rear seat on the passenger side. Chauffeurs are rare even among affluent American executives. Not so in Asia and Europe where corporations typically lease vehicles for their top executives.

[@marcco954]

You are right. In Korea, when you visit places where there are many companies or government agencies around, G90 and Equus are everywhere. Limo version isn't rare too.

[@stephenhendricks103]

@@andrew.woolman7449 Well, I'm one of those American viewers who won't be purchasing a G90 but the luxury sedan market isn't completely irrelevant in the US. Americans like BIG vehicles and large luxury sedans remain aspirational automobiles for many consumers. The same is true of Lamborghinis, McLarens, Bentleys, and the most powerful versions of 911's. And like it or not, "immature teenage boys" constitute a huge portion of KZbin viewers. :)

[@FLAKKU03]

you can exclude Europe from your statement. I don't think if anybody will buy luxury Hyundai here even if it's cheaper than Audi/BMW/Mercedes.

[@stephenhendricks103]

@@FLAKKU03 Genesis has only recently begun (earlier this year) to offer vehicles in a few European countries, specifically with three showrooms in the UK, Germany, and Switzerland. Whether the Korean brand will be successful in Europe has yet to be determined. In any event sales of large luxury sedans in Europe have plummeted in the COVID-19 era, an overall of a drop of 35% compared to the first quarter of 2019. And that follows a drop of 13% in annual sales in 2019 compared to 2018. It's a small market numerically but I wouldn't be surprised to see Genesis make a significant dent in European sales over the next couple of years.

I've said it before but I'll say it again, Genesis NEEDS their own dealers. Hyundai/Kia dealers are notorious for being a terrible place to be and I don't think any luxury buyer will want to buy their $75k luxury sedan at a Hyundai dealer. Luxury also pertains to dealership experience and Lexus has the #1 satisfaction with dealers/service. If Hyundai is smart, they will go the Lexus route and separate the dealers.

[@hellkitty1014]

People get so pissed when I say that, but luxury buyers only fully respect brands that do exactly what you mentioned. Toyota was well aware of that in 1989 when they built separate selling channels for the Lexus brand. That is how they ascended into success so fast!

[@davidp1017]

They do have seperate dealerships in Korea but yes they do need to get the dealerships out where they're selling these cars.. because like u said, no one wants to go buy luxury cars in a non-luxury brand's dealerships.. :/

Genesis is dropping the v8 for the next gen G90. Sad to see the Tau V8 leave, but i am intrigued about the up coming EV G90.

[@AFCompany]

Genesis doesn’t even sell as many cars as INFINITI let alone Acura and Lexus. Yes they are killing it with their new designs and models especially the gv80 which is an actual competitor to the German brands. However it’s so hard to find Genesis because they don’t have dealers and aren’t easily accessible. It will be a while before they catch up to those other companies sales numbers.

[@artisankyle]

AFCompany genesis sells its cars in Hyundai dealers

[@kromahj]

But are they killing it in sale? That what Lexus, Infiniti, Acura care about

[@AFCompany]

Kyle Swift I know but that’s the problem. They don’t have their own dealerships. In most places If you are cross shopping luxury cars you can go from dealer to dealer. However luxury dealers and standard brands are normally not on the same street. So people aren’t going to think to drive to Hyundai to get a luxury car. A lot of people don’t even know Genesis is associated with Hyundai.

[@ChadWilson]

[@byronnasem4110]

I honestly would get this over an A8 and a 7 Series....people may not say it’s better than the S Class, but this will be more reliable and for the price you pay, you will have much more engine than the base v6 S class

The wheels are so cool!

I steered my mom to a 2018 G80 with the V8 and I borrow it as much as I can! 5.0 with 420hp

[@adamlapinski7590]

I love the wheels. There's nothing wrong with covering up the lug nuts. Cleans it up and protects.

[@tommygtr3571]

Stunning. I want one. I prefer this to the latest model.

[@StarryTemplar]

finally a CAR maker knows to use just WOOD interior !!! I hate others putting bullshit CLEAR Coat on the WOOD..it make it so much easier to get scratch!!!!!!!!!! and annoying SHINE that blind you when its sunny

[@GregRex101]

[@complexgrafix]

thanks for the video.. love the grill love the lights

[@AlexSchwartzATV]

interior and exterior beautiful as usual with genesis. love the simplicity so fucking much, its so refreshing.

[@WorldReserveCurrency]

Genesis is doing the big grill thing right. Sweet looking sedan.

[@richardrybarczyk5522]

Not everyone wants an SUV, I prefer a sedan and was disappointed when the American manufacturers decided to drop sedans from their lineups. Genesis makes some nicely designed sedans. They may still be out of my price range but I do appreciate their design and comfort.

No massaging seats is a deal breaker in this segment. Also, why does the Sonata have a digital gauge cluster while this doesn’t. Not giving the option of a panoramic sunroof is strange.

[@dave_riots]

This mimics old school American luxury sedans, from the V8 engine and obnoxious size, to the lack of tech features seen in most other cars. It's meant to be simple and smooth, something that, for some reason, we still like paying top dollar for. Why anyone would shell out so much money for an outdated land yacht is beyond me, but to each their own I guess.

[@tarakelly8573]

Very classy, they are for sure uping the luxury game! I usually do not like wheels in that stile at all, but on this car I believe they really do it justice!

[@kaushikpatel3831]

Good it doesn't let you burn out. I like that feature.

[@michaelhatfield5808]

I can’t be the only one who prefers the pre-refreshed G90.

[@RTPTechGuy]

Question...where does the front plate go for states that require it? That doesn’t seem obvious. I feel like that would ruin the front fascia.

[@kawasakiwhiptwo5821]

Great review Sofyan. ✌❤

[@enerrivers4392]

Nothing like a Naturally Aspirated V8. The bigger the better.

[@hellkitty1014]

I really like what Genesis did here. They finally understand that mimicking the S-Class comes across as inauthentic and nearly impossible for its price. They instead took an existing car and introduced a wholly new brand styling direction, and what better to do that than on your flagship. Sure, it is slower than the S560/750i/A8 4.0T, but it will be far more reliable(and the standard V6 is very competitive with their 6cyl offerings). The interior is highly appropriate for the price, and I rate it higher than the 7-Series, but below the Audi and MBZ S-Class. The Lexus LS is nice on the inside as well, but a bit busy for my taste(and that infotainment setup is a disaster). The build quality, quietness, plushness, ride, etc are all luxury-appropriate. Love it!(even the much-debated wheels, yes, they go with the vibe of this car. Genesis tied all of it in together well!)
