Genesis G90

Hyundai's luxury flagship sedan has been renamed the Genesis G90, which features a 5.0-liter V8 or a 3.3-liter turbocharged V6, the better choice of the two. Both are mated to a smooth eight-speed automatic and are available with either rear- or all-wheel drive, addressing a shortcoming of the rear-drive-only Equus predecessor. The spacious cabin is bathed in soft-touch materials and decked out with wood and chrome trim, but it comes up short on wow factor. The ride is cushy and cosseting; the cabin is super-quiet. Handling is responsive, although not sporty. As is typical for this oft-chauffeur-driven class, the backseat is really the place to be. It has massaging seats, and controls in the rear armrest manage audio and climate settings. A complete suite of advanced safety features is standard. The Genesis G90 got a freshening for 2020. The forward collision warning system can now detect pedestrians and cyclists, and the car now uses the lane keeping assistance and lane departure warning systems to keep the G90 centered in the lane. The car also gets a rear cross traffic warning and rear automatic emergency braking system. The Safe Exit Assist system can alert the driver and passengers if an object, such as a car or cyclist, is approaching the car when a door is opening. In addition, the infotainment screen becomes touch enabled and gets Android Auto and Apple Car Play compatibility.
