The 2020 Genesis G90 is a large, four-door luxury sedan for drivers who want an upscale vehicle but don’t need any attention. This is a quiet, powerful, comfortable, handsome car that is beautifully appointed with all the features that you might desire and at a price range that is reasonable considering everything that you get. If you want a great car and you’re not wanting to buy a known luxury brand, the new G90 is for you.

The Korean car maker Hyundai launched their luxury brand, Genesis, a little over ten years ago. They’ve kept the line-up small, selling larger “executive” model cars with an emphasis on delivering quiet luxury to buyers who appreciate a quality product.

In an attempt to capture buyers from other luxury brands, Genesis vehicles have spared no expense in delivering high quality touches to all of their vehicles.

The new G90 sits at the top of the Genesis line-up. It was designed to compete at the top of the luxury car market with the world-best technological innovations and the highest levels of refinement, convenience and dynamic performance. With a starting MSRP of $72,200, the G90 is a veritable bargain once you consider all that it delivers. The base engine is a 365 hp, 3.3 liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine and is mated to the eight-speed transmission. It gets fuel economy numbers of 17 mpg in the city and 24 mpg on the highway. For just a few thousand more, you can move up to the 420 hp, 5.0 liter V8 engine that is super smooth and has more power than you’ll need. And, the fuel economy numbers are almost identical to the smaller 3.3 liter engine.

The exterior design style is quietly refined in what Genesis describes as “athletic elegance.” It’s the interior design that generates a certain “wow” factor centered around absolute confidence and luxurious comfort. There is a comprehensive array of technology that comes standard on all G90 models, including a heads-up display designed to keep the car safely on the road and in the proper lane.  And don’t be surprised if your passengers choose to ride in the back seat where they have limousine-type legroom with reclining seats, and they can enjoy their own climate control.

If you’re looking for a luxury car that is a dream to drive but is discreet in appearance, the G90 might be just the answer.
