The Genesis people have taken all the hustle out of buying additional packages to get your luxury vehicle. It comes packed with function, design and technology. The ride is tireless and very impressively comfortable. Great machine!

When I read negative reviews of the then forthcoming Lexus 500 LS I decided that instead of getting another LS (which would have been my fourth) I would consider replacing my 460 LS with the G90. It was the beginning of Covid and for my test drive I could only find a 2019 version. Nevertheless, it blew me away. I wasn't expecting the heads up display which is what first caught my attention, and then the self driving aspects of the car were intuitive and easy the change. And the ride was smooth and fast, better than my 2017 LS. So I purchased the 2020 AWD version. I have now driven the car for a year. I still marvel at how much I enjoy it. On my drives from Texas to Colorado, about 11 hours, it is great to be able to just put a hand on the wheel and have the car largely drive itself. The Lexicon sound system is better than the Mark Levinson systems in the Lexus. The car is faster and smoother than the Lexus. Yes, the dealership experience is not as good but the car is soooo enjoyable. And so reasonably priced. This is the best car I have ever owned. Love it. updated 4/20. The car still drives great. But the electronic add-ins leave something to be desired. My dealer tells me I can no longer get weather forecasts because I do not subscribe to Sirius. Genesis says that is not the case at all. Also, except when you are in a large city, the weather, gasoline price, and other data are unavailable. Genesis should work out their problems getting this information to the driver. Other brands can do it. 4/23 Still a great car. Has been reliable. Only complaint is still the lack of information in rural area

The best automobile on the road for the money

I have owned six Lexus's and a Kia k900 and the Genesis is by far superior for the money and tops the others in all respects. I have had it about five years and only one problem... brakes locking.l. 3/15/22: I have had my G90 for three years and have had zero problems. It is one of the best cars I've owned which is about twenty five. I've owned six Lexus vehicles and I find this Genesis to be overall better than a Lexus. A comparable Lexus vehicle would cost about $25,000 more. If you have wondered about buying a Genesis I would recommend that you go ahead and do so. I hope you will not be disappointed.

What a DEAL

2019 Genesis G90 Ultimate 4dr Sedan (5.0L 8cyl 8A)
5 of 6 people found this review helpful
I have owned and driven a variety of luxury vehicles from Lincoln, Cadillac, and Audi, but this one is the best deal ever! This is perhaps not the best execution of a luxury auto, as I really loved my Audi's, which had better execution of handling/ride/fuel economy and technology, but the cost at which to achieve that better vehicle does not justify the price. Genesis has done a great job creating a seriously comfortable car with lots of goodies to wow you. Tack on that Genesis is having a tough time moving these cars as many people are choosing SUV's, plus a lack of brand prestige that comes with a name like Lexus, Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Inifinity, Acura, Lincoln, Jaguar or Cadillac among mainstream luxury. But, those difficulties and an updated upcoming 2020 model, allowed me to make an awesome deal at the end of the year because of incentives and get one for over $10K below list. What was already a great deal, became an awesome deal. At this price, I can sacrifice not having a perfect luxury and I don't need to impress anyone with a spiffy badge on the car. This is for me! 1 year update. This car is amazing, love the comfort. It may not have the badge recognition, but it is an extremely comfortable car. It does not have the performance of the German automobiles and the fuel economy is not up to par with the competition. I am getting an average of 23-24 mpg highway on ethanol blends, and 25-26 mpg on no ethanol premium. I can sacrifice some fuel economy for what I paid. The one big knock is the the sound system...occasionally on a long trip the sound will shut off. The radio shows it is on, but there is not a sound coming from the system. After this has happened a couple of times, I know the solution is to stop the car, turn it off, walk away to get the key fob out of range of the car and come back, start it up and go again. Very odd. I looked on the Genesis owners blog and have seen many with similar experiences and no apparent solutions from Genesis as this is a non-replicable problem. Now, after 3 years and 24,000 miles, I am still quite pleased with the G90. The only other issue is an occasional problem with the trunk release button on the dash not activating the trunk decklid. When the button is pushed, it will unlatch the trunk, but not fully open the trunk. For those who are not familiar, the trunk decklid is motorized and opens and closes with a touch of a button or key fob. Other than that, this car has been a dream. On long road trips, I can drive for 10 hours or longer and not really feel uncomfortable or tired, unlike driving other vehicles in my possession. We have taken this car on 1000+ mile trips at least 4 times and love the comfort. The one issue is that the car does sit a bit low, especially when fully loaded and it can bottom out when going over some obstacles like speed bumps in parking lots. Some of the speed bumps encountered are a bit high and if one goes over a higher one at bit too quickly, the soft suspension and low ride height, will have the car impact the speed bump. After 3 years of ownership, I can say I really enjoy this car. The new models certainly have a bit more eye appeal and more refined as far as features, but for value, this was still an awesome purchase. The new models are now list for $20K more than when I bought 3 years ago, but much of that can be attributed to inflation and increased brand recognition since Genesis has successfully launched Motor Trend winners like the G70, GV70, and this year the G90. Genesis' parent Hyundai is now working with the dealerships to require a separate facility for Genesis and Hyundai sales and service. There will be fewer Genesis dealers as many have decided not to incur the expense of building a new facility for Genesis. In my opinion, the lack of the separate facilities for the Genesis brand has hurt sales, as upscale buyers have not wanted feel like they were in a "budget" facility, that lacked upscale amenities available at other luxury dealerships. That should be changed over the next couple of years.
