This car is about as nice as it gets in my book. While the other luxury cars have followed suit of the ridiculous trends and swapped out good quality materials like wood, metal, and leather for piano black screens, the G90 has maintained the traditional luxury car interior.

Bur the LWB G90 have the Maybach-like wheels that's exclusive to the Korean market.
I’d absolutely love to have such a cushy car. Every affordable car these days has such a firm suspension for “sporty” reasons that hardly anything has a nice soft ride. My dream car would be a compact car with super high build quality, soft suspension, and great sound deadening that’s also a hybrid that gets at least 50MPG or an EV with 300 miles of range. Edit: also when you get to the part with the mood stuff, normally car speaker audio is never super obvious if it’s good or bad through the Go Pro and such, but this might be one of the first cars where I can actually tell that the sound system is genuinely very good.

I can't wait for the next update of the G90. Genesis seems to be displaying their full sweet of features on this, and to see what they can do after a few years is incredibly exciting. Also, I see a Korean pattern in the channel, eh? Though, I'm not complaining. I adore to see what different countries can offer. As always, great video Chris. All of them are great. Your format is very unique, and I like it.
I saw one in person. It's.... majestic
G90's B&O speaker is real B&O. It is a B&O ADVANCED level. just not a b&o cover and domestic speaker . g90 b&o stage mode is really awesome.. and make me feel like on the stage. i love mercedes s-class, and i had w221, now i have w222 S450. g90 provide really cozy and comfortable drive to me .. like s-class.

9:03 I daily an 2018 Hyundai GT Sport (i30 for European peoples) & my backup camera has had this same exact issue multiple times over the years, down to it completely blacking out, getting static-y, weird like wavey lines etc just like an old TV. They had replaced it twice under warranty & it always comes back. It mainly does this when it's hot out, so been noticing it again ALOT over the past few weeks. My A4 Allroad is about to deliver within the next 2 weeks & I'm giving my gf the GT Sport so she can deal with all the issues 😅 I'm tired of it

@@johnakkman9993 Meanwhile, Lexus still has giant plastic buttons and interiors from 20 years ago. Their latest LS has some interesting materials, but you'll see like 7 types of materials and patterns on the same door which is just silly. Their exteriors stink and have been ugly for several generations now, and even most Lexus owners can't even tell the difference between an ES and an LS, let alone other people. It's also smaller and less impressive than it used to be in the rear and many Lexus LS owners moved to the G90 and found it a nice upgrade. If you check the forums, many G90 owners came from the LS after Lexus stopped innovating and kept catering to grandparents who still think "lexus is reliable". Lexus unfortunately gave up on sedans years ago, they just make the same SUV with different names and a 1-2" difference between their models, like many other manufacturers. They made the LFA then forgot they can make cool cars. They made the LC500 which people love, and none of their sedans and SUVs have much in common with it for some dumb reason.
I'm pretty sure there is a genesis out there with a v8 (stock) correct me if im wrong but one of those older ones or the Korea only version has a v8
What a thing. I love luxury cars, and my go-to brand would normal be Lexus, but this Hyundai is stunning inside and out 😎. I wouldn’t mind the V6. I don’t think a V8 would be necessary tbh.
These cars depreciate like a rock. Great deal if you get one that’s 2-3 years old. But unfortunately you have to get them serviced at a regular Hyundai dealer.

I mean a 10 year old 7 series is about 10k which is 1/10th to 1/20th of its new price...Ever look up a used Maybach or S Class? How much do you enjoy losing 100k-200k of value over 10 years?
it's the small things they're missing out on for that price they must add them
Pls review the Gv60
Seat controls on doors are just next level comfort despite the fact they brands copy Mercedes; it doesn't matter. Even Range Rover has them. Every car should have them on the doors, or at least on the side of the center tunnel like Aston has them, and other brands. This thing would look baller with 22s. Kinda looks like a Maybach.

@@iSOBigD In theory, we can't really compare the Maybach and the G90, but I have to say I agree with you 100%. The Maybach, sure, if you have the means for it, go for it, but meanwhile, the G90 is NOT a bad pick. Its rare, its unique, it actually looks amazing, and has a crap ton of features, its comfortable, and as you said, its a third of the price. I find that the price for this is bang on. But would you choose this over a 760i or S580 for the same price? (second hand)
i know a guy who bought one of these, shipped it to fiji and moved there... oddly i havent heard from him since he moved lol...
The way the door open button design, it is super influenced by Nio, or identical
Looks good and is certainly offering a lot for the money, though would be concerned with long term reliability
Seen a few on the road. They look great in person. But if I’m shopping for a luxury sedan around $100k I would not consider this at all, $70k maybe.
Hear me out. All these luxury cars with executive chair in the back, since the rich person can't be bothered with driving, manufacturers can save money on driver seat. It'll be just a simple manual cloth seat without lumbar adjustment. And plastic steering wheel with no power assist, no AC vent, no speaker in driver door cart, no cup holder, and crappy suspension at the front left corner.
Give it a couple years and you'll pick them up for 15k got the older Equis 2013 and I got it for a steal at 11k

@iSOBigD

No. The only Kias and Hyundais that had that issue were cheapo base model ones with zero options in the US because in other countries they came with push to start and standard security features which are required on all cars. The US just had low standards and people who wanted the cheapest car possible got those. Genesis sedans have been around since 2009 with push to start, good safety features and none of those issues. They got nothing to do with entry-level front wheel drive cars.

They had one before this, mine has the N/A 5.0 but with all the emissions requirements everyone went for smaller engines with turbos. When's the last time you saw a naturally aspirated V8 in the S class, 7 series or A8? They've all been turbo and sounding like crap for a few generations now. These days, even AMGs have 4 and 6 cylinders. I think outside of the Lexus is500, Genesis was the last manufacturer to offer luxury sedans with a naturally aspirated V8 engine, especially when it comes to full-size sedans.
