The reign of the Lexus LS is over. The Genesis G90 is a full-size luxury sedan that emphasizes serene ride quality, meticulous materials, and an unapologetically premium feature set. With starting MSRPs around the high-$80Ks and bring a suite of comfort, tech, and safety updates that keep the G90 squarely in flagship territory while undercutting some traditional rivals on price.
Design and cabin experience
Signature Two-Line LED headlamps with Micro Lens Array technology, a unified clamshell hood, and diamond-cut wheels set a polished tone outside. Inside, the focus is quiet luxury: acoustic-laminated glass, sealed doors, real-wood trim options, and soft Nappa leather. Details like an 18-way power driver’s seat with integrated massage and an available UV-C sanitizing compartment underscore the “arrive rested” mission. ( Genesis )
Technology and audio
The G90 layers thoughtful tech rather than overloads: fingerprint authentication to start and load profiles, a hands-free smart trunk, an 8-inch rear armrest touchscreen for seat, shade, and lighting controls, and wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto. Audiophiles can spec the Bang & Olufsen Premier 3D system with 23 speakers and dual amplifiers—tuned for the G90’s exceptionally quiet cabin.
Performance and ride
Under the hood, the lineup centers on a twin-turbo 3.5-liter V6, with an available 48-volt e-Supercharger variant aimed at broad, effortless torque. An 8-speed automatic with Predictive Shift anticipates grades and curves, while an electronically controlled suspension with Road Preview smooths potholes and speed bumps. Active Noise Control-Road further hushes the cabin by cancelling road-surface vibrations.
Safety and driver assistance
A comprehensive ADAS suite is central to the G90 experience. Available features include Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist, Safe Exit Assist, Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go and Curve Control, Highway Driving Assist with hands-on detection, and Remote Smart Parking Assist 2 for inch-perfect maneuvers in tight spaces.
Rear-seat priorities
The G90 treats second-row passengers to first-class comforts, from available seat massage and power recline to individualized climate, ambient lighting, and shade control via the rear touch interface. Paired with the sedan’s low noise floor and supple suspension tuning, the rear cabin is designed for true chauffeured serenity on longer drives.
Ownership perks and recognition
First owners of recent G90s receive complimentary Genesis Connected Services, and Genesis includes 3 years/36,000 miles of complimentary scheduled maintenance. The model has also earned top safety recognition, including IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+, reinforcing its luxury-with-peace-of-mind positioning.
Bottom line
The G90 blends restrained design, near-silent cruising, and modern conveniences into a flagship that feels unmistakably premium without being ostentatious. With its twin-turbo V6 powertrains (including an e-Supercharger option), adaptive suspension, rich audio, and executive-class rear accommodations, it’s a compelling alternative for shoppers who value calm, craftsmanship, and comprehensive safety tech in a full-size luxury sedan.
