AI-generated summary
Genesis is Hyundai Motor Company's luxury brand, and the GV90 is the brand's first ultra-large flagship electric SUV. After being first unveiled in San Francisco, USA last August, it will be the first to go on sale in Korea.
Hyundai Motor Company's luxury brand Genesis announced that it launched the brand's first ultra-large flagship electric sports utility vehicle (SUV), the GV90 Neoroon and GV90, on the 10th.
The GV90 will be the first to go on sale in Korea after being first unveiled in San Francisco, USA last August.
The selling price is 139.5 million won for the GV90 Standard (7-seater) with a regular swing door, and 145.5 million won for the GV90 Individual Lounge Seat (6-seater).
The GV90 Neorun, which features the world's first independently openable hidden B-pillar coach door (Neoroon arch gate), is priced at 189.9 million won for the standard (6-seater) and 239.5 million won for the executive suite (4-seater).
The GV90 is equipped with a high-voltage battery with 123.5 kilowatt hours (kWh), the largest capacity among Hyundai Motor Group electric vehicles.
The driving distance on a single charge is 500 km for the GV90 (based on 22-inch wheels) and 460 km for the GV90 Neorun (based on 24-inch wheels and 6 seats). The combined fuel efficiency is 3.4km and 3.2km per 1kWh, respectively.
When fast charging at 350 kilowatts (kW), it takes about 22 minutes to charge from 10% to 80% of the battery capacity. For the first time in the Hyundai Motor Group, Plug and Charge (PnC) 2.0 and electric vehicle (EV) charging start speed improvement technology were also applied.
The combined maximum output of the front and rear motors is 490kW and the maximum torque is 800Nm, making it the most powerful among Hyundai Motor Group electric vehicles.
A total of 12 airbags are installed, including roof airbags. The world's first roof airbag protects passengers by covering the entire roof glass in the event of a rollover accident.
For the first time in the Hyundai Motor Group, a buttonless power system was also introduced, eliminating the ignition button. After getting in the car and closing the door, the driver can step on the brake pedal, shift gears, and start driving right away without having to press the start button.
The GV90 Neorun has an ultra-high-strength dual steel beam inside the door instead of the B-pillar and a hidden roll cage structure. Through this, we have secured crash safety performance equivalent to that of a vehicle with a B-pillar.
The GV90 Neoroon is the first Hyundai Motor Group to feature an electric swiveling front seat that rotates 180 degrees while stopped.
The exterior was designed with inspiration from a moon jar. There are 16 exterior colors and 5 interior colors for each model.
