This is a beautiful car. I’m obsessed with the interior. The exterior is pretty nice too, looks classy, and mature

same with me, Genesis isn't getting the attention they deserve, they've been doing a great job with their designs, despite being a new brand in the luxury market, they didn't just copy off the Germans. They've adopted their own unique design language, they've developed their vehicles to make them unique to Genesis. They are more than just Korean BMWs or Mercedes. It doesn't look like they went overboard with the tech either, which is what the Germans have done with their cars and its just way too much.
Man Genesis makes some sexy interiors. Now this is luxury.

Amazing exterior and the wheel design is my favorite part of the styling. Interior is off the charts. Amazing how far Genesis has come. The GV70 is on the wish list...hopefully you can test drive the upcoming GV70 Electrified that's due out this year..
Tbh I've always been a Benz guy but the genesis is unbelievable
This is definitely my favourite modern full-size luxury sedan! The exterior design is totally unique and so beautiful! Interior looks great too! Lots of cool features like automatic closing doors! Overall a great car! Genesis absolutely knocked it out of the park with the new G90!
Exterior is freaking nice.. Timeless elegance.

I love the interior! Looks great on the outside too, although I prefer the previous gen. Really impressed by them, I am excited to see what they have in store!
I think I prefer the G80's design over this one. This actually reminds me something of the GV60. Maybe we've come to the point that regular cars are so quiet and smooth that luxury cars can't distinguish themselves so much. The back seat is large and has a bunch of recline features but beyond that, is it really anything that stands out? In the video, is it really any quieter than some of the BEVs you tested when cruising? And they're quieter when accelerating. Not saying it isn't a very nice car, but like the BMW i7 and the Mercedes S, maybe there's nothing more to add to luxury and now they all seem over the top.
I know the Genesis has been making waves over the last few years, but with this effort, I'd say they have arrived. Good for them, it really does look unique from any angle. No more BMW lines.
My new favourite channel 🥰
This is my dream vehicle!! Nice video bro.
11:32 that turn is so smooth I barely noticed it
ive been waiting for the g90. reveiw. good job topher!!!!!
That steering wheel design is the nicest i have seen to date
thats the biggest compliment to give Genesis. They're unique. they're not trying to be the new [BMW, Audi, Lexus, etc]. this looks great
I love the front end design but dislike the rear end. I also like the wheels. But the most impressive part to me is the cabin. It is stunning and loaded with almost everything imaginable. As an almost 4 year Genesis G70 owner I can attest to the quality of their vehicles.
I think if I was in the market for something of this class I would have to go genesis, they just seem so much better built and higher quality then their German and European counterparts.
Finally they made a car that satisfy both driver and passenger, the user interface are easily understandable. I'm still figuring out what "power reserve" means in a Rolls Royce until now
After all these years of saying ''Genesis is almost there", Genesis is officially there and ready for the competition. For the price, I would rather get this instead of its German counterparts.
Wow, that car is nice they thought of everything with that model. Great review.
People have been saying the side mirror camera is a Hyundai thing but Honda get the credit for starting that feature
My fav 2022 interior. Absolutely amazing
Well at least I know now that the weather can impede on your windshield like we have in Canada. Wipers are fragile and unpredictable.... upon the weather
You can tell just by the lack of camera shake/bounce just how smooth the ride quality is. Really awesome job. Sucks that there's no wireless Android Auto/CarPlay but hopefully in a year or two that's added.

They nailed the interior 🔥
I've always loved the G90, and this seems like a substantial upgrade on all luxury fronts, though maybe not much of a power upgrade. Genesis seems to be out Lexus-ing Lexus on their former core philosophy: a luxury vehicle should not call attention to itself, but invisibly cause its occupants to arrive refreshed and relaxed. I agree, and find this sort of competent, unobtrusive luxury extremely appealing. Well done Genesis, and well done Chris!
Drop dead gorgeous! 😍

Genesis is slaying it on their new vehicles and on their flagship luxury sedan they know the mission of this car, unlike Lexus which has turned the LS into a mish mash trying to be an overly sporty Lux saloon that it once reigned so supreme at that mission.

I've been looking into getting a Benz for a while now but ever since I've started watching these G90 videos I can't stop thinking about them. The interior is too good and it comes with so many features and functionalities that a lot of the Mercedes cars don't have even in this price range.

While Genesis has upscale design its not up to the level of an S Class for example, actually is not even in the same league. Its main and only competitive advantage is lower price and possibly better reliability(that quality seems to be of less relevance among the high earners driving those cars)

It´s unbelievable that Genesis can sell this huge luxury car for only $ 100k, for $ 100k you can buy in Germany a Mercedes C-class with 400+ HP
I really wish Genesis would bring back the dual rear infotainment but make them touchscreen, in my opinion that's the one thing that's missing
I've been a pretty big Merc/BMW/Audi fan in the past...but I'd take this straight up over the Germans, as crazy as this sounds. Would definitely take this over the Lexus, and it's not even close. Keep up the amazing work!

Sorry, but I’d never buy a Hyundai over a German car! You can put lipstick on a pig, it’s still a pig. This car looks like an Elantra on the outside and looks really cheap interior. But if you like that then have at her, just don’t put it in the same sentence as German cars.
now, we need to see your driving impressions with hyundai genesis coupe bk2 3.8..
This car is absolutely fukkin 🔥 I would definitely consider this as a buy.
And a pretty significant increase in price. The top of the line increased from $82,000 to $99,000. This increase pushed it past my limit. 409 horsepower? The old available 5.0L naturally aspirated V8 originally put out 427 Horsepower. No spare??......I hate that.....My 2013 Genesis has a donut spare on an aluminum rim. There should be enough room for a spare, in the trunk (besides the battery) Mine is going on 10 years old, with zero mechanical failures.
Imagine the servicing cost on this long term with all that equipment
That's a ghost of genesis shutting door and turning on the engine for you.
That’s a good looking car💯💯
Can’t afford an S-Class, well here you go! 🤝
It´s a little bit that they only can put 409 HP out from this engine, normally they can bring easy 450 HP on the table.
Beautiful.
You know why I love this car? (Almost) no piano black.
Sad part is most people cant afford this and most people have families and i wouldn't say this is family friendly although it has everything anyone can possibly dream of in a car.. i have a feeling unfortunately this will get discontinued shortly... I think this car needs too be at least 500-1000lbs lighter if possible too match the engine power. But i aint gunna lie genesis is on my list to get one either gv70-gv80 but if it were up to me id get the g70 but my wife likes crossover suvs lol.. i think hyundai and kia and genesis are all doing a fabulous job and they will only continue too get better.. they may take over the car industry for a while eventually or atleast be in the top 5-10 that would be absolutely craziness.. Also cant beat there warranty..
that is what I'm going to do to my Sebring but it is missing just over mechanize it computerize it redo the sound system and upholstery and make the engine butter
Genesis has taken over what Infiniti used to do with cars and SUVs

Insane to remember when I was a little kid Hyundais were known as a piece of crap on wheels with a 10 year/100k warranty with a brand new one costing ~$10k. Pure volume manufacturer. Now they make some of the best looking best quality cars on the road.
Very elegant
honestly the looks remind me of a hyundai elantra mixed with s-class
Hey guys, who was responsible for design of the current Audi 8, have a look how the luxury sedan should be looking like and what kind of impression it must deliver
That's a really cool car. I like the front !
It has a very 1980's American luxury car (Cadillac, Lincoln) look on the interior.

The car manufacturers should give you a bonus for each car they sell with a reference to your channel haha, if one could have the money to get all these cars...

I honestly think that Gen will take over the European car companies. It’s just a matter of time, trust me all. They don’t ignite me anymore like it use to be. I pay more attention to Gen now. I love the GV70, 80.
Hyundai needs to fix their dealership situation with Genesis and it will be right up there with the Germans. What great cars they have been putting out lately.
them koreans have stepped up their game. not a fan of the exterior but looks nice to drive
