Moving on up in the Genesis G90

YOU’LL BE TEMPTED TO DRIVE THIS POWERFUL SEDAN, BUT HERE ARE SIX REASONS WHY YOU’LL WANT TO BE DRIVEN.

Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to have a chauffeur and be driven everywhere you need to go? Me too! So when I got my first look at the Genesis G90, I knew exactly how it would feel – absolute luxury!
