Genesis today announced the U.S. pricing for its flagship luxury sedan, the G90. The car will come well-appointed as standard with a host of luxury amenities and technologies and it starts at US$ 88,400. That price means it costs more than the 2022 Audi A8, which starts at US$ 86,500. The 2022 Lexus LS, meanwhile, starts at US$ 76,000. Genesis, though, is attempting to fill its model with luxury as standard to compete with its rivals.
For US$ 88,400, buyers get a 3.5-liter V6
engine that makes 375 hp and 530 Nm of torque, which goes to all four wheels.
It also comes with Genesis‘ full suite of Highway Driving Assist safety and
driver assistance features as standard. The new model year also brings Digital
Key 2 to the lineup for the first time. This feature automatically unlocks the
vehicle when the owner is close by using Apple Wallet or Samsung Pass and
Ultra-Wideband technology to detect them.
The sedan also has a “mood curator” mode,
which enables things like the ambient lighting, the sound system, the fragrance
system, the electric curtains, and the massaging seats to create a mood within
the vehicle for optimal comfort. Other highlights include electronically
controlled suspension, a panoramic sunroof, power door closure, three-zone
climate control, a 12.3-inch instrument cluster as well as a 12.3-inch
infotainment screen, a Bang & Olufsen audio system, wireless device charging,
and more.
For US$ 98,700, you can get the
G90 3.5T AWD with 48V e-Supercharger. That pumps the power up to 409 hp and 549
Nm of torque. It also adds new technologies, such as Multi-Chamber Air
suspension and rear-wheel-steering, for a sumptuous ride. Passengers are
treated to a 3D-surround sound experience that can recreate the sound
characteristics of a specific space, such as the Boston Symphony Hall. It
creates the soundscapes thanks to 26 Bang & Olufsen speakers that can also
minimize in-car noise thanks to a sound-deadening features.
Customers will be able to buy the new 2023
Genesis G90 soon, and the first deliveries are expected to start on August 10.
