2023 Genesis G90
Starting at: $80,000 est
Overview
Genesis's most luxurious model-the G90 sedan-is getting a dramatic redesign for the 2023 model year that will bring it into the modern era. Exterior styling is inspired by the G80 sedan and GV80 SUV but with a few unique touches that symbolize the G90's place at the top of the company’s model hierarchy. Genesis says the brand's twin-turbo 3.5-liter V-6 will be under the hood as the standard powertrain. Rather than the 5.0-liter V-8 that's the upgrade engine in the 2022 model, we think Genesis will instead offer an all-electric model with two electric motors and a massive battery pack. The G90's interior has been redesigned to pamper occupants with a plethora of unexpected features, including an on-board fragrance diffuser, power-operated doors, an air purifier, and a UV-sterilization chamber in the rear center armrest.
What's New for 2023?
The G90 will receive a complete overhaul for 2023 that modernizes it and brings the flagship luxury sedan's styling in line with the rest of the Genesis lineup.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
Premium: $80,000 (est)
Advanced: $90,000 (est)
Ultimate: $100,000 (est)
We're guessing on price here, but in order for the G90 to continue its value-focused strategy of undercutting rivals such as the Audi A8, the BMW 7-series, and the Mercedes-Benz S-class, it will need to start around the $80,000 mark. When we find out more about the 2023 G90's trim levels and pricing, we'll update this story with that information.
Engine, Transmission, and Performance
All 2023 G90 models will come standard with a twin-turbo 3.5-liter V-6 engine that's found in other Genesis models. An eight-speed automatic is also slated to be standard and we expect both rear- and all-wheel drive arrangements to be offered. The engine makes a stout 375 horsepower and should deliver brisk acceleration. An air suspension will be available and Genesis has said the car will feature a "Chauffeur" driving mode which we assume will create an extra-smooth experience for passengers. An electric variant-likely to use the name Electrified G90-is also expected, but Genesis has not yet released any info about that car. When we get a chance to test drive the new G90, we'll update this story with test results and driving impressions.
Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
Like the exterior, the G90's cabin gets an overhaul for 2023 too, with a fresh design and posh materials that will help it go head-to-head with its rivals. Passenger space is likely to be generous in both the front and the back seats and Genesis has incorporated several features that intend to take the luxury experience up a notch. An on-board fragrance diffuser, for example, and an anti-microbial sanitation system that cleans both the air and items that are brought into the car such as smartphones. Of course, features such as massaging seats and a premium stereo system will also be included.
