The Genesis GV90 blows the bloody doors off what’s possible in EV design
Key Points:
- Genesis unveiled the GV90, its first full-size, three-row electric SUV for the US, featuring innovative coach-style doors called the Neolun Arch Gate that eliminate the traditional B-pillar for a larger vehicle opening.
- To maintain safety without the B-pillar, Genesis engineered a new structure using high-strength dual steel beams integrated into the doors and body, aiming to meet crash safety standards while enabling the unique door design.
- The GV90 offers rotating front seats that can face the second row, creating a lounge-like interior space, alongside advanced tech like a 23.6-inch OLED Cinematic Display, a 25-inch heads-up display, and Memory Reversing Assist for autonomous-like features.
- Powered by a 123.5kWh battery and dual electric motors, the GV90 delivers 657 horsepower and supports 350kW fast charging with an estimated 310-mile range, combining performance with luxury and cutting-edge comfort features.
- Additional luxury amenities include heated floors, armrests, and door trims, massaging seats with 15 air bladders, a heated windshield, and a unique roof airbag system for rollover protection, showcasing Genesis's bold approach amid a cautious EV market.
