Magna engineered the AWD system. Considering they (Magna) purchased Getrag the G90 AWD should be decent.

I like it!! Finally Hyundai listened and got Genesis its own brand.
I wonder how they'll name the inevitable crossovers.. Will they add 'x' at the end like G90x, G80x etc.?
The design led by Peter Schreyer, the front reminds me of Audi very much. Not that it's such a bad thing.
It'll be hard to tell the different between G80 and G90 when they're on the road.. they look awfully similar to me, just like MB and Audi sedans.

I like it but just seems to much like the already out Eqqus which I guess it's replacing?
Just looks 'dated' too my eyes I guess.

I saw these almost exact tail light today... on a Jaguar. Can't remember the model, but prolly a flagship as well.

I suspect this will be the best used luxury car on the market - flagships already depreciate like nuts.  Attractive car with lots of nice features.

The L means long wheelbase version of the XJ.
