Genesis to unveil GV90 flagship SUV later this year

Genesis will unveil its flagship electric SUV, the GV90, later this year. The GV90 will be the first production vehicle to carry the next‑generation Connect W software system, which the company says will elevate the luxury EV driving experience.

​

Genesis said it will introduce eight new models, including the GV90, as part of an aggressive product push. The GV90 is the first model to ride on Hyundai Motor Group’s next‑generation dedicated EV platform, eM. Compared with the group’s current E‑GMP architecture, the eM platform improves efficiency and should deliver class‑leading range for a large SUV.

Digital innovation driven by Connect W and Pleos OS

Connect W, the system’s technical core, runs on Hyundai’s new integrated software platform, Pleos OS. The goal is an end‑to‑end environment linking the vehicle OS, infotainment and cloud infrastructure. Through a smartphone‑like interface, drivers will get AI assistance, real‑time data analytics and optimized route planning.

​

Manfred Haller, head of Hyundai Motor Group R&D, said these advanced digital driving technologies will enable vehicles to interpret their surroundings with greater detail and realism. He called them a defining element in the transition to software‑defined vehicles (SDVs).

Coach doors and a leap into the high‑end market

The GV90 prototype will be offered in two variants: a standard model with conventional doors and a premium version that features coach doors to maximize a sense of luxury. Genesis sees coach doors as a design cue to position itself alongside the world’s top luxury marques.

​

Production is now targeted for June 2026, a revision from earlier plans. Genesis intends to use the GV90 to take on global high‑end EVs such as the Rolls‑Royce Spectre and the BMW i7, strengthening its position in the luxury segment.
