Been here awhile...
I won't replace a G90 for GV80 of any trim. I test drove 2.5 and 3.5 advanced and wasn't impressed

A lovely new toy. We will see if they plateau next summer. Keep it up.
Genesis moved 150 last month, up from 100 or so the 2 prior months (don't know if this was just an increase in supply).
Getting closer to the LS (which Lexus us discounting) which did 233 last month.
Think Genesis would be ecstatic if they can get sales up to somewhere around 200-250/month if they have the supply.
Multiple reviews mentioned that rear wheel steering in G90 is "way too weird," or "made car occupants literally car-sick." For those who own E-SC version, what are your impressions?
I have the light interior. Aside from the normal concerns of keeping it clean, my only "zonk" would be that on a bright day, the rear window suffers from the light interior reflection. Putting up the rear shade does help, but it wouldn't be an issue with the darker interior I'm sure.I like light interiors better, they show better details and refreshing
Yeah I figured that I don't drive the way the reviewers droveUnless you're driving erratically, the rear wheel steering shouldn't be too noticeable. I have had mine now since the end of Sept with no complaints from anyone in the rear seats and I've sat back there myself on several occasions.
Also someone mentioned the e-supercharger+v6 and the transitions not being smooth. Again, I think it depends on the driver. 90% of the time, everything feels very smooth. There are a few times where I do experience a little bit of turbo lag, regardless of the E-SC.
The Maybach and RR have it also, but with the G90 it's standard, and at a fraction of the price. I liked it, but the doors don't open fully, only close fully automatically.First time I'm hearing that the new G90 can electrically open the doors and also stop itself from hitting objects too. This is a US-spec model:
The new 7 Series has the same feature but uses many more visible sensors and from current reviews like Throttle Houses's, seems to be glitchy.
Motorweek got a 0-60 in 4.9s and it handled itself fairly well on the slalom course.
Also, MW observed slightly better than the 24 highway mpg in their mixed driving.
The embedded video didn't load for me, but this should work:

The amount of leaning in the slalom test shows that it's not exactly a super sedan, but 4.9 sec to 60 is pretty good for that weight and a V6 engine. I'm shocked by the 60-0 stopping distance though! 105 ft puts it around the level of smaller super sedans like the RS5, CT5V, M5 Competition, and close to many supercars. I looked up a new Bentley which has a similar weight and massive brakes - it did over 130 ft.
Pretty damn good for a big heavy luxury car.![]()
