- All-electric AWD SUV
- India launch timeline unclear
Hyundai India announced that it will bring its luxury sub-brand, Genesis, in 2027. While its global portfolio comprises seven models across SUV, saloon, coupe-SUV, and shooting brake body styles, the flagship Genesis GV90 SUV has been patented in India.
Design-wise, two distinct lines, with the lower one taking a V shape in the middle, make the GV90 stand out. The rear end sports two connected parallel tail lights. The side profile sports brushed silver alloys, 285/40 section 24-inch tyres, and four disc brakes. The cabin gets nappa leather upholstery, 25-inch heads-up display, 24.6-inch centre screen with Pleos Connect and Gleo AI, digital IRVM, Bang & Olufsen audio with 25 speakers and Dolby Atmos, powered two rows, sunroof-mounted airbags, air suspension, and rear-wheel steering.
Mechanically, the Genesis GV90 is an all-electric SUV, churning out 657bhp/800Nm via an AWD layout. Battery capacity stands at 123.5kWh, and a 350kW DC fast charger results in a 22-minute 10-80 per cent top-up. Claimed range stands at 500km. Notably, Genesis has not disclosed the battery chemistry, and it lists the battery type as lithium-ion. It will stack up against the likes of the Kia EV9 and the Volvo EX90.
