The 2018 Genesis G90 is the modern interpretation of a luxo-barge—and it’s a great value, all things considered.

Cons Limited brand cachet Fun to drive? Nope Design isn’t terribly distinctive
The G90 has comfort-first driving dynamics that won't raise the pulse of serious drivers, but it provides a plush ride; long journeys are rejuvenating rather than tedious. Even the G90's least expensive model—it's hard to call it "base"—is fitted with handsome materials and provides a comprehensive list of equipment that some other brands offer as optional extras. The well-appointed but restrained interior complements exterior styling that is handsome and upscale but avoids overtly flashy details. The harmonious G90 is a low-key luxury sedan that's high on value.While the G90 carries over unchanged for 2019, Genesis has revealed that the refreshed 2020 version will have flashier exterior styling and enhanced interior features.
Pros Outstanding value, quiet and cosseting ride, smooth powertrains.
Cons Overly relaxed handling, lack of connectivity features, not as flashy as the competition.
