@@MilesPerHr You can't be a real car journalist talking so foolish? SMH! Which Genesis model outsells any Lexus? This thing could barely sell 1000 units last year
@@justinking8220 nobody said it sells more. Genesis is definitely a younger company than Lexus but despite that, it provides better options and more luxury than a Lexus
The only reason people are buying an S Class, 7 Series, or A8 over this is because they want others to know they have one. Or they want performance from an S8. This is so much better looking than the other three.
I recently purchased a CPO 2019 MB S560 w/7500 low Covid miles on it, $122K MSRP in 2019 so well optioned. This replaced a 2015 MB S550, also well optioned. I looked hard at Genesis and liked a lot of what I saw, but the poor dealer experience was the deal breaker. Pros for Genesis was new vs CPO MB, long warranty and rep for better reliability, plus lower maintenance cost (My 6 yrs with my S550 taught me all about MB maintenance costs.) My S560 looks and smells like new, and has all the interior beauty and real controls that the newer 2021 W223 abandoned for piano black plastic, capacitive controls, and lots of in your face touchscreen. When I replace this car our local Genesis dealer may be standalone and better than it is now, and I may buy Genesis.
This is really good feedback for Genesis as someone who went through the shopping process. Thank you for sharing. I hope for their sake that the dealership experience can improve, because their cars certainly are.
@@JRVAND59 gas mileage pure highway driving is even up to 25-27 mpg if no traffic. Driving around long island with the lights and really having fun in sport mode, it's about 13 mph. And yes, max performance with premium, but you could use regular. Definitely not the car for someone who cares about saving a few dollars using regular vs premium gasoline.
Its not a car you'd immediately call beautiful but it has this elegance about it that is very entriguing, even more so than the Sclass or 7series, it just has this regal feel to it which is amazing, definitely a unique car
Would you take the G90 or a Grand Wagoneer? I know they couldn’t be more different in dimensions, but I am truly torn between the two. Haven’t had the chance to test drive the G90 just yet unfortunately. I’m planning on pulling the trigger for a new vehicle soon!
It really depends on your use case. If you’re considering the G90, chances are you don’t need the third row of seats or the massive amounts of cargo. I almost always recommend a sedan over an SUV If those two criteria aren’t critical to your decision. In this case, the G90 is going to ride better and offer higher levels of luxury, so it would get my vote.
it´s a very good big luxury sedan but a customer where are like the German one´s, with their different engine options, interior options, exterior options and driving performances? they would unfortunately never buy this nice G90.
I started to really like the leather classic quality of Genesis. It feels like a BMW crossed the road of luxury of mercedes but does everything right. I would take every Genesis over Mercs counterparts. Their new cars overloaded with Technology and huge Screens isn't something for me. And I am saying this as a 23 year old Software Developer.
@@ridgefrost I still love the B58 and B48 engines from BMW and tbh if you really want a sporty feeling the 3 series delivers more than a Genesis G70 tbh, but if its about luxury per Money sure the G70 would easily lead for its price.

@@ridgefrost I know that this is the G90, but generally if you inspect the lower class Genesis cars you will realize that they just build down from the G90.

I sat in this at an auto show and although the interior materials were nice, it felt very stale. IMO, I didn’t feel the ambiance or comfort of a flagship when compared to the s class or even lexus ls. It gave no emotional response or connection, just “thats cool i guess” 🤷🏻♂️
It’s definitely not ornate in the same way as an S class, but I do really find a lot of value in the material quality and the cohesiveness of the cabin. It’s a different kind of flagship, but I do feel like it’s Genesis’ best effort.

The 740d (which is sold in Europe) averages like 38 mpg going 80mph. It also features all wheel steering. The G90 might be a nice car but as all the other asian competitors of its class it does lack technology. I've driven the 740d last year and found it to be even better than the S-class due to better controls which the G90 also seems to nail. I'd pick the 7 series over this, probably as the 740d which is a mhd (286hp diesel = 13hp electric engine). It's just amazing. It's just sad we don't get the 760i in Germany.
The Genesis G90 is one of the biggest underdogs when it comes to luxury vehicles! It is unfortunate that people don't know about the Hyundai/Genesis brand.
I wanted to buy a 2023 after seeing the LWB version however after finding out they are only selling it in Saudi Arabia and Korea I gave up on buying one. The LWB version would put the Benz and BMW to shame just on looks alone.
The thing I always want to know and no one ever mentions is….. Does this car have a disable button for that auto stop start feature that every car unfortunately brings nowadays? If one can’t turn off that feature, no matter how nice and how many features it may bring it’s worth zero $ to me if you can’t override that. So can you disable that feature on this model?
You must live near San Diego because of how rough some of street surfaces are.

It’s very good. A mix between BMW and Lexus. It’s more experimental than the S-class.
The downside is the dealership experience and the gas mileage. The BMW 7 and S500 achieve much better mileage from their six cylinder engines.
You’re not the first person to bring up the dealership experience. It’s a bummer that that is a blemish on the genesis brand.

It’s not very intuitive, but there are other screens for the gauge cluster, including a real tachometer.
