  • The 2023 Genesis G90 3.5T Prestige ($115,000 in Canada, $100,200 in the US) aims to be an elegant and luxurious flagship sedan with the ability to prioritize rear passengers. It has a 48V e-supercharger attached to a twin-turbo V6, making it capable of 409 hp. And since comfort is of utmost importance, Genesis has now included a few new features to help achieve their goal. Features such as air suspension to improve the ride, and what they call the Mood Curator to control things like ambient lights, massaging seats and the fragrance system. It also has active rear-wheel steering, which should improve not only its turning radius but also passenger comfort - one would hope. Watch to see what Thomas and James think of the new Genesis G90! We hope you enjoy the episode. Thanks for watching! SUBSCRIBE!

    They nailed the sedan proportions of this thing, it looks so low-slung and imposing. The 7-Series looks tall and halfway to being an SUV sedan, like it can't pick an identity, whereas Genesis really leant into the sedan and made it dramatic. I wish the people richer than myself would buy for more than the badge, because Genesis deserves to be alive far more than the abominations the Germans are pushing out their behinds.

      All big car companies have design chops. They just don't have balls. Edit: Oh and they're so scared of their shareholders they HAVE to maximize profits by building generalized parts for all their vehicles. Which is for example why all the German luxury brands look exactly the same within their brand. A class or S class, there is almost no frontal difference.

      Facelifted second gen Tiburon from the mid 2000s is easily the prettiest sports coupe in existence besides the second gen Eclipse, the Genesis Sedan OG from 2009 was a looker too and Honda even rippped off its rear end for the 2013 Accord. And then Kias had a bunch of stunners too such as the Optima. Hyundai/Kia have no excuse to not make attractive cars, they done so for well over a decade now. Glad the Genesis has a stunning brand styling, now if they could fix current Hyundai.

    People are saying “it’s not worth the price because of the power” but you don’t buy it for the power. You buy it the same reason as you buy a Rolls Royce or a Grand Wagoneer from Jeep. You buy it because the technology and the luxury is outstanding. And it’s not like it has 200 hp. I think for $100,000, it’s one of the best luxury vehicle you can get, close with the grand wagoneer (cause they’re super buggy and stuff).

      They'd have to make them in RHD first. I'm a chauffeur here in Australia and would like to seem them here too, but I'd prefer a vastly cost reduced version - something that could replace the mighty Holden Caprice. I want the SIZE of the G90, but with a lot less luxury, to get the cost down to that of a G80. (which are actually already pretty pricey)
      For the time being I've switched to an SUV - a MY22 diesel Q7, which I am extremely happy with.

We pay through the nose for everything. If they were a similar price to what they cost in North America, we'd sell plenty of them, but they are priced astronomically here.

    That uv-c light joke was so underrated. Loved it. Loved this review. You guys make watching UA-cam car reviews something to look forward to and enjoy. It's always a pleasure to wake up on a Wednesday morning and see something from Throttle House.
    And as for the Genesis, it's a phenomenal car. You have to sit in one to really see and feel how far they've come. I would take this over the competition because they're trying so hard to make this worth it and it's working. It's different and not cookie cutter. You won't see these at your wine mixers and your executive business meeting gatherings. It's really nice.

    • @sports2hedz542

      Agreed. The $16k less for the 740 is a significant achievement...that's 16%! In razor thin new car profit margins, that's a fortune. Granted the luxury segment has bigger margins which only means the G90 keeps the razor thin margin of an economy car with S Class opulence. Incredible. It's clear you are paying for the name and not much else (and maybe a big screen TV) for the BMW. But then again that's always been the case. The elevated price tells you not that Genesis is jacking up the price...but that it's simply not possible to get that type of luxury for under 100k.

The interior continues that theme and looks a really nice place to spend some time.

    It’s always amazing to see and hear about every auto compares itself to BMWs 7 series and it’s other legendary cars so Bmw must be doing something right. Mercedes Benz Bmw have both been around for over a 100 yrs
    There’s no comparison, for as a brand name you pay for a heritage that can’t be touch
    Mercedes Benz S65 AMG, BMW M760Li are
    Definitely game changers I have both of them.
    Genesis can’t complete with Lexus so it’s best to stay in your lane. When you “BOSS UP”and put out A V12 with 700hp and all the amenities Holla until then continue to be the coping knock off brand that you are 😂

I have not heard a lot about reliability issues with past G90's which is important when investing in these luxury vehicles.

    These reviews keep getting better and better, great job guys. I am one of the 50 Genesis enthusiasts, but I have mixed feeling about this new G90. I don't like the rounded effect on the grille (prefer the previous year's design). I don't like the 2 spoke steering wheel (prefer the 4 spoke), I don't like the design element with a button in the between the 2 screens (just make it one big screen like the new E Class), I don't like the move away from the low square shifter to the knob (prefer the previous year's shifter and similar to the Audi A8/S8), and I don't like the center console "gap" between the dashboard (again the transition in the previous year was so much better). That being said, all the improvements they have made to the experience, build quality, and functionality are excellent. This puts me in a awkward position of wanting the new thing or buying a used 2020/2021 G90.

      RWD is not always deal breaker. By far more comfortable on a highway, better ride quality and steering dynamics and better economy. Slower off the line yes, but perhaps better on the top end. That said, AWD is better for inclement weather and track potentially, but really with the right tires you should be find for normal day to day driving.

And winter tires + RWD is still totally inferior to winter tires + AWD.

      You guys dont even know how AWD systems work... They do not help with any of the driving dynamics aspects. They just help with grip loss when it happens. Even the permanent AWD systems like the ones in a Subaru. Suspension design and tires are the most important factors for ride quality and having more space and less weight to work with always equals to a better ride.

Nice looking cars, inside and out, but engineering is shown once the wheels start spinning. Merc is already gathering experience in the electric class too with the EQS. The new 7 is just insane. Possibly overgrown the class itself. And audi always delivers great deals while not ignoring the driving part. Plus, they actually sell and are profitable. All of them make more money than the Hyundai/KIA group and are focused solely on the premium/luxury market. They don't need to split budgets.
