2025 Genesis G90

Price Range: $89,700 - $100,000

Genesis is no longer an upstart in the luxury category, but it still doesn't have the brand recognition of the German stalwarts in its class. Brand recognition is, however, the only thing it lacks, as the stylish G90 is amply powerful, spacious and lavishly finished. And even at this lofty price, it retains the traditional Korean value proposition, including numerous features as standard equipment that other brands charge extra for.Read full review

Overview

As the Genesis luxury brand's flagship sedan, the G90 is a full-size four-door packed to its plush, leather-lined sills with luxury and tech features. From its Bentley-esque roofline and rear roof pillar to the handsome two-tone interior palette and its cushy ride, the Genesis G90 is every bit a contender against the established standards in the chauffeur-optional class.

Edmunds spotlight: Trick suspension

Adaptive suspensions that can vary the stiffness of their springs and/or dampers are commonly available in luxury flagships of both the sedan and SUV varieties. But the G90 goes one step further with its Electronically Controlled Suspension with Road Preview that comes standard. This high-tech setup uses a forward-facing camera to scan the road ahead and can proactively adjust the spring and damper at individual wheels in anticipation of bumps and other road imperfections. Typically, even an adaptive suspension is simply reacting to the road surface when the wheel hits a road imperfection. Genesis' advanced "preview" approach gives the G90 an advantage when it comes to providing a velvety ride.

Competitors to consider

While its most recent redesign was accompanied by a significant price boost, the G90 still undercuts most of its competition by a significant margin — nearly $20,000, in the case of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class. Only the Lexus LS is cheaper. In between the G90 and the S-Class are the aging Audi A8, last redesigned in 2019, and the BMW 7 Series. While all offer a different interpretation of luxury, each has its own appeal. Read our Expert Rating below to see where the Genesis stands out.

8.1

edmunds TESTED

Rated for you by America's best test team.

Performance

8/10

How does the G90 drive? The G90 has no ambition to be mistaken for a performance vehicle, and we appreciate its honesty. Our test vehicle came with the upgraded powertrain, and it accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in 5.4 seconds at our test track. That's quick enough for day-to-day use and easy passing power, but it's not going to match the sub-4-second times we found in the hopped-up versions of the BMW 7 Series and Mercedes-Benz S-Class.

The steering feel is very light and low effort, with the resistance through the wheel ramping up while in Sport mode. But there isn't much feedback, and when you turn in, it's not remotely athletic and there's immediate body roll to let you know that this big sedan was made for long, straight drives where its comfort and easy power delivery can really shine.

Comfort

9/10

How comfortable is the G90? The G90's ride quality is impeccable. Our test vehicle came with a multi-chamber air suspension that smooths out any bumps and road imperfections with ease. The front seats and the outboard rear seats are plush and very roomy, but that middle rear seat, with its elevated cushion and hard back, is not suitable for more than quick trips. There is barely any noise from the outside, and it's easy to have a conversation with backseat passengers without raising your voice.

Interior

8.5/10

How’s the interior? The G90's interior niceties start with the powered soft-close doors. For the driver, if you hop in and put your foot on the brake the door will even close automatically to make the experience feel even more luxurious. Genesis has opted to use a good number of physical controls. Finding a suitable driving position is a breeze, with plenty of adjustments offered for both the seat and the wheel. Some drivers might find that the touchscreen can be hard to reach, however.

Build & Price

Technology

8/10

How’s the tech? Though it lacks some of the features and extensive voice commands of the infotainment systems in the 7 Series and S-Class, the G90's interface is simpler to use. Our test vehicle came with the optional 23-speaker Bang & Olufsen 3D audio system. It's a phenomenal setup with excellent clarity and powerful bass. Wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are newly standard for 2025. The native navigation system is the infotainment system's biggest weakness. It feels dated compared to the rest of the vehicle, and searching for destinations is cumbersome.

Storage

6.5/10

How’s the storage? For a vehicle with such a large footprint, there isn't a lot of space for storage. The trunk only measures 12 cubic feet for the base model, and if you step up to the mild hybrid, that shrinks to 10.6 cubic feet. That's less than you'll find in more compact sedans (think the Honda Civic). It's enough to fit one large bag but definitely not a second. Inside, things don't get much better. The center console area looks great, but there isn't much in the way of storage or even good spots to put everyday items like a phone, purse or wallet.

Continue reading Edmunds Expert Rating below

Fuel Economy

7/10

How’s the fuel economy? Funnily enough, the G90's non-hybrid powertrain is actually a hair more efficient with an EPA-estimated 21 combined mpg, while the supercharged mild hybrid version only gets 20 combined mpg. In our testing with the mild hybrid G90, it beat that figure with an observed fuel economy of 22.5 mpg. These figures match up closely to those put up by the S-Class and 7 Series with their larger engines. But both competitors offer versions that have greater efficiency, while the Genesis does not.

Value

8.5/10

Is the G90 a good value? In the realm of full-size luxury sedans, you'd be hard-pressed to call anything a bargain but dig down into the G90's pricing versus its rivals and it offers an undeniable advantage. The G90 can cost tens of thousands of dollars less than rivals yet it doesn't give anything up in interior quality or style. All you're losing is the badge, and if that sort of thing is meaningful to you then by all means, step up to the Mercedes-Benz S-Class. But we think those who opt for the Genesis won't be disappointed.

Wildcard

8.5/10

Even in its second generation, the G90 feels like an outsider that's trying to fight its way into the mainstream, and it offers great appeal as an ultra-luxurious alternative to the German sedans that have ruled this segment. On top of that, it's armed with the same features and quality but at a significantly lower price. The design is modern inside and out, turning heads without having to resort to gimmicks or a giant schnoz.

Which G90 does Edmunds recommend?

Most of the G90's appeal is baked into the basic G90 3.5T AWD, which makes the base model our pick. It includes the silky Electronically Controlled Suspension with Road Preview, massaging front seats, and a panoramic sunroof. If, however, you plan to spend your time in the back seat — or plan to have important people spend their time back there — the E-Supercharger trim adds ventilated and massaging rear seats, which are not available with the less powerful base engine.
