Agreed, great perspective.

Do not buy this. I had a 2021 G80 bought used with 4k miles and sold it after 1 year since it was so bad. 1) Front Headliner was not secured to the roof. I could see the plastic clips if i pulled it down slightly. How did this get past quality control wtf? 2) Panoramic roof would flex and crack if i go over uneven surfaces, which never happened with any cars I've owned. Dealerships had 4 tries to fix but could not fix 3) Weak AC that is terribly inadequate for Texas weather. 4) Rides rough and not very comfortable even with non-run flats. Granted I had the 20 inch wheels but still. 5) Poor NVH in general even with acoustic laminated glass compared to other luxury cars I've owned. 6) Gas mileage for the V6 sits around 19 mph 60/40 highway city driving which is pretty mediocre. 7) Just does not drive as well overall as the Germans or Japanese. You can tell the Koreans brands just arent quite up to snuff when it comes to driving dynamics.

Exactly. Wish he would cover some of Acura/Honda engines.

Thank you for The Information ☺️

Maybe you should try other luxury brands first before getting upset. The European luxury brands are miles ahead.

@@jerbsherb4391 Lol

Because, it your own car

​@jerbsherb4391 In what way? My SQ7 Prestige with the luxury package takes a back seat to the G90 in a massive way as far as interior is concerned. This idea that the European luxury cars are just simply the best is absolutely hilarious. Go look at the engineering on the gen 1 Taycan vs the Model Y of the equivalent year. The Model Y literally dunked on that German engineering failure so hard and for a fraction of the price. Definitely not as nice of an interior, but the mechanical side was years ahead. Hard pill to swallow, Koreans are coming in hot. $3k for a suede headliner or $3k for what should be standard safety systems on the German brands like Audi is pathetic. An Elantra has more standard features lol

Which is the setup on the 1UR Lexus V8 in some markets. It's on my 2011 LS 460, so it's interesting how others came around.

It's confusing because he doesn't know how to PROPERLY title his videos like this one here. This is the Electrified version of the G90 and the engine components are 100% different that the standard G90s.

Correct. I also noticed that. It's very obvious he hates Hyundai, so he spends as much time shitting on their cars and doesn't do proper research.

​@@ishaansaral502.. he only likes toyota..go check out his review on a mazda cx 90.. it was brutal.

"Hyundai Motor Group’s new Dual Fuel Injection system comes with two injectors, one GDi and the other MPi, for each cylinder, taking advantage of the pros of both injector types. For low-to-mid speed everyday driving, the system uses the MPi injector; for high-speed driving in highways or expressways, the system uses the GDi injector. Such optimization of fuel injection type to the driving conditions has led to an improvement in both performance and fuel economy."

This horrible KZfaqr reviewer doesn't rectify anything or care. He doesn't even bother to reply to his own comment sections. He left out the fact in the main title of this video here that this is the Electrified G90 totally misleading others to think this is the normal motor build on all G90s when the mechanics are totally different. This KZfaq sucks.

@@Dmwntkp99yeah manufacturerws dont fight warranty claims, especially not Hyundai😂

@@antcantcook960 Not a gate keeper, just stating anecdotal facts which happened to my sister Venza and friends RX. never stated anything about how's better warranty claims duh.🤪

I thought people three year lease these types of vehicles.

@spook5756 A lot do, I don't. My brother leases his cars because he can claim it 100% on his taxes. I can't write it off, so i have to look at the actual costs, long term, and I've found leasing to be more expensive in the long run. I've only ever leased 2 vehicles out of 30 I've had over the years. Dealers prefer to lease them because there is a lot more money in it for them. To me, a lease is like a bad, long-term rental. You keep paying payments forever, but you never build any equity. And you never get to own your car. You're always driving somebody elses car and yet you still have to maintain and repair it, you have to pay mileage fees if you go over the alloted miles, you have to have it in perfect condition when you give it back to them, or they charge premium fees and you have to guarantee the end value and pay the difference if it depreciates more than that. And if you don't like it after a year or two, you have to pay more stiff fees to get out of your lease contract. Look at how the lease is structured: The dealer takes the full msrp price of a new vehicle, then assume the estimated lowest depreciated value after 2 or 3 years, then take that as a lump sum and finance that at the highest current interest rate. People only look at the monthly payment. Since it's lower to pay the financed depreciation than it is to pay the financed full value of the car they think they are paying less - or they think they can drive a nicer car by leasing than they can by buying a lower level car. I don't like that whole scenario. The dealer is charging you through the nose. They get all the advantages, and you have no control. You will be making car payments for life. And you never get to own a vehicle. What makes a lot more sense for me is to simply buy it as a lease return as a 2 year old car. You're going to get a car with low mileage in perfect condition for half the value or less. Then, if you need to finance it, you can shop around for the best lowest interest rate. You have equity in the car, and when it's paid off, it's yours. You can drive it for years with no car payment. Case in point: my last Mercedes. Brand new the car was $137,500 plus taxes, fees, etc. Somebody paid over $100,000 to lease that just to drive it for 2 years. Then I bought it for $55k 2 years later, with only 20,000 miles on it. It was virtually like a new car, but roughly 1/3 the price. Then I drove it for 8 years and then traded it in for $20k. So, in the end, that guy who leased it paid $100k to drive it for 2 years, and I paid $35k to drive it for 8 years. His cost per year was about $50k. My cost per year was less than $10k per year for the same car. I didn't have any lease contract with all its fees, requirements, and restrictions. For me, that's a much more sensible way to go. As everybody knows, the biggest depreciation is in the first 2 years. That's what you are paying for plus interest when you lease. As for this G90 I just bought, a 2023 is $100k. But I actually like the 2022 model better. I like the looks better, (people ask me if it's a Bentley) plus I got the video screens in the back, and I got the 420hp naturally aspirated V8. Lots of power and no turbo lag, no turbos or supercharger to maintain over time. My Mercedes had to have twin turbos on its V8 to get in that range of power. The G90 only had 15k miles on it, and I only paid $60k. I paid cash, so no monthly payments ever. No interest, no financing fees, etc. Just $60k. And I get a full 10 year / 100k mile warranty. It is in perfect showroom condition and even still has the new car smell. If I own it for 8 years and then trade it in or sell it for 20k then, it will have cost me 40k to own it for 8 years. Which works out to $5k per year. Which is a very reasonable cost for a luxury car. And I won't have had to deal with mileage fees. Buyout / escspe fees, end-value fees, and all the other nonsense with leasing contracts. For me, this is by far the best way to have a nice car. But that's my opinion and experience. Your mileage may vary, as they say. ;-)

This supposed mechanic KZfaqr reviewer fails to mention that Motor Trend was talking about the majority of REGULAR G90s being sold and not this Electrified version.

Otherwise he would have put the Electrified G90 in the title of this video. Smh.

Having the V6 is going to hurt it in the long run. Also having sales in very small numbers means that your cargoes obsolete much faster as parts inventory and body parts disappear. I found that out with a Veloster that isn't that old. Parts guy told me it's the same with any models that sell in small volumes it's not just Veloster or Hyundai. If this G90 only sells 5000 a year for 4 years. they're not gonna make parts like they would for Elantra or Sonata. Buyer beware 5 years after the last of the current model is sold.

I have a 2010 Hyundai Genesis, with port injection, a V6 engine, and it has been unbelievably reliable. Though direct injection would have improved power and fuel mileage, I am glad that my car doesn't have it. I like not having to worry about the carbon build up. I could not stand the original suspension, and put the ARK aftermarket (made by Hyundai) suspension that lowered the car by an inch. The original suspensions wallowed too much for me. After 176,000 miles, I have had a window regulator fail on the left rear door, the door locks on the left side both had to be replaced because they would not work in hot weather. I have replaced the front brakes only once at 100,000 miles. TPMS sensor went bad, not in the tire sensors, rather the computer that receives the TPMS signaling. That was about $350 at the dealer. Oil and filter changes every 7500 to 10,000 miles with full synthetic. I have no oil leaks, still have the original air conditioner with original charge. Spark plugs at 100K miles, and transmission fluid replacement every 60K miles. Based on this car, I would buy a Genesis again, but now, after watching this review, I may buy another used low mileage older Genesis. I fear the complications of the new Hyundai designs. I love the Car Care Nut, and watch all his videos, and I know he is calling it as he sees it, but there is no question that he is biased for Toyota designs, though he gave a positive review for the Mazda CX-5. He clearly doesn't not like the Hyundai/Kia hybrid system. He clearly doesn't like cars with only direct fuel injection (Neither do I), and he doesn't like there to be be too many belts that need to be replaced. Can't blame him there. If I lived close to him, and owned a toyota product, I would definitely wait in line to have him service the vehicle.

Wrong. He forgot to put in the title this is not the regular G90 and this is the "Electiified" version. Misleading the engine components are 100$ different that the standard G90s.

I own a 2017 Genesis G90 5.0 Htrac Ultimate, love driving it. Lowers my blood pressure everytime I start it up. The 5.0 Tau engine is a beast, this engine will easily do 500k miles with rountine service. Just make sure you change the oil every 5000 miles rotate the tires as well. Check your owners manual for every other fluid that needs to be changed. I change my own engine air filters, two of them every 30k miles, the cabin filter behind the glove compartment as well. Keep your oil topped up by checking it every 1000 to 2000 miles it takes 5w20 quaker state. I use full Synthetic Oil, runs beautifully. I am never selling mines, Hyundai/Genesis stop producing their naturally aspirated v8 engines. On a long stretch of straight smooth road I've had mines up to 140MPH could not hear any outside noise, moving like a jet on the road.

@@MrT-nh6di - I agree. I hate to get out of my 2018 G90. I absolutely love it. smooth quiet powerful luxurious and a pleasure to drive. And looks impressive too! Thanks for the information. The best bang for the buck I could find. I wanted the weight (almost 5,000 lbs.) and long wheelbase (124") for the smooth ride. And yes, the 2023 G90 no longer is available with the V8 and too complicated with the twin turbo and 48V supercharger.

The thing is, they got so many tech. from BMW designer since last decade to create Genesis brand and some are complaining Genesis can't make smooth ride like Mercedes cause the gene is from BMW. So, neither can't be a smooth ride or exotic ride. But, many reviewers give good scores on Genesis vehicle ride, so it depends on personal preference

Full size luxury sedans depreciate quicker but I don’t think you gonna get this for 40k in 3 years more around the 60k mark. The crazy part is they only sell like an average of 130 units monthly so there isn’t even gonna be that many on the used market. A8, LS500, and G90 don’t sell well in the full size luxury market in USA. The 7 series and SClass are moving better units but is still not that great for those 2.

No, you missed the point of a car review, which is to pull no punches. Lexus was reliable, its cars fully engineered, and had outstanding dealer support from Day One.
