    Meet the First Model From the Genesis Brand, the G90

      Genesis Reveals Their First Model


    Hyundai's new luxury sub-brand, Genesis has revealed a pair of design sketches for its first model, the G90. This model will be the brand's flagship and replace the Equus sedan.

     

    Hyundai describes the G90 as “elegantly designed” and “technology packed.” This will be the first production model to use the Genesis' ‘Athletic Elegance’ design language. The sketches show off a sedan that is low-slung with a long hood, small greenhouse, and a fastback silhouette. The front end boasts a large hexagonal grille found on the current Genesis sedan and a set of headlights that wrap into the front fenders.

     

    “Genesis’ new large luxury sedan G90 will deliver a concept of ‘New Luxury’ to our customers. The G90 sits at the pinnacle of the Genesis brand and demonstrates how we apply our human-centered values to give our customer true satisfaction in every aspect of the vehicle ownership experience,” said Woong-Chul Yang, Head of Hyundai Motor R&D Center and Vice Chairman of Hyundai Motor.

     

    Hyundai will introduce the G90 in South Korea next month.

    ‘New Luxury’ Takes Shape - Hyundai Motor Unveils Rendering of New G90

    • New large sedan G90 to top Genesis brand’s luxury model range
    • ‘Athletic Elegance’ brings graceful and profound elegance to the new model


    November 10, 2015 – Hyundai Motor has revealed the first rendering of its new range-topping G90 luxury sedan, which is named EQ900 in Korea. The elegantly designed, technology packed G90 hints at the recently-launched Genesis brand’s design identity and future direction.
    Woong-Chul Yang, Head of Hyundai Motor R&D Center and Vice Chairman of Hyundai Motor, said, “Genesis’ new large luxury sedan G90 will deliver a concept of ‘New Luxury’ to our customers. The G90 sits at the pinnacle of the Genesis brand and demonstrates how we apply our human-centered values to give our customer true satisfaction in every aspect of the vehicle ownership experience.”
    As the Genesis brand’s flagship model, G90 is a blueprint for change and innovation that will distinguish the Genesis brand. Majoring on ‘human-centered’ technology combined with engaging driving dynamics, G90 boasts a raft of world-best safety features and technological innovations to set itself apart in the luxury market.
    G90 also showcases the Genesis brand’s hallmark design style ‘Athletic Elegance’, interpreted by the newly-formed Prestige Design Division to bring graceful and profound elegance to G90’s significant proportions. Crowned by the Genesis emblem, the grand radiator grille combined with sophisticated headlamps communicates the car’s dynamic, future-orientated character. A theme that flows along a body-length character line to the long and agile rear lamp cluster completes the Athletic Elegance of G90.

     


    Hyundai Motor created the Genesis brand for a new generation of discerning consumers. Capitalizing on its success in the fast-growing global car market, Hyundai Motor will launch six new Genesis models by 2020.

     

    The launch of G90 is scheduled for early next month in Korea.

    I still think they need their own unique look.  The grille is Audi-like, the tail lights are like an S-class.  The concept looks pretty good, but I think they'd be better off making something that stands out, rather than blends in.

    I like the way it looks. Again, there's only so many ways to slice an onion, and I think this looks quite stately, and derivative...yes...quite.

     

    But we can also realize that perhaps not even one element at all is a blatant copy of anything. There's a lot of inspiration, but I think Hyundai -err I mean the Genesis brand has done quite a lot in differentiation.

     

    So the Genesis brand can now be catapulted for being in the hunt for being top of the second-tier mainstream luxury brands. Not that they weren't like this before as Hyundai. Yes...quite.

    • And they used to make this, with probably the best wheels ever.  Then it went downhill fast.
    • Will be interesting to see how mercedes uses their 800V EV system on the current auto's, hopefully they can get their mojo back on style and YES, I agree that BMW peaked in the 90's with style and has clearly lost it with the Big Nostril Grills. How anyone thinks this looks good is beyond me.
    • Like showing proof of insurance, either proof of purchase of a gun safe (Yes, I know this could be forged), proof of home insurance showing Guns and gun safe on the insurance (Yes, I know this could be forged). There is no bullet proof way of ensuring gun locks and gun safes, but we have to do our best.  I also think there is no need for Military style guns in public possession, but that is my feeling, and I know gun companies would fight this as they feel they have a right to sell everything to everyone and be damn any regulations about responsibility. Gotta start somewhere for better gun safety.
    • My country is not the one that is threatening ICE agents at the Superbowl just because there will be  a gay Puerto Rican performing t the half time show. Need I show you the peaceful tactics of ICE agents?   Need I spell out the homophobic so called Christian reasons of why said performer is not wanted at the Superbowl half time show? Need I also spell out the love that one sector of Americans have for another? All the things that I have pointed out that you call insufferable... PS: Charlie Kirk spewed ALL that kind hatred in his podcasts and University campus debates. The Bad Bunny hatred at the half time show hatred...   Charlie Kirk advocated for gun violence too and ironically died in the very same way he condoned...  And the shooter of Charlie Kirk at that school was another far right phoquetard.   So phoque you @ccap41  for it all!!!  Are you trying to shame me for what your shytty country has become?  You cant see your own hypocrisy of questioning MY thoughts on how your phoquing shytty country is soooooo phoquing shytty? Dude...shame on you and your fellow country men.  YOU and YOUR countrymen are insufferable...
