I was just wondering when we'd see a return to wood floors in cars. I bet it's more like LVP though. And the floor is heated?? So truly a car made for driving in socks. Interesting. Sort of.

Anybody calling this ugly, bubbly, terribly proportioned car “beautiful” is wrong. No offence, but this is SOOO ugly in comparison to Gravity. Guess we all have our opinions though..

Can we really take you seriously when you defended the Cybertruck....

I've got to admit I have a soft spot for sharp angled cars... just look at our current car, or my liking of the Rezvani Vengeance. I don't know what it is about them, but other than the Tesla "SUVs," Franz's designs are amazing. As long as the fundamentals of design are good (proportions), you can make anything look great. Besides, the Cybertruck just looks distinctive while most other brands are just releasing the same cookie-cutter cars (not including Lucid, though)! I am VERY inclusive in terms of the cars I like, for example I like the Silverado EV at the same time as the Cybertruck. Almost every brand (even BMW, their designs are wonderfully aggressive) has something going for it, and I tend to appreciate distinctive designs. Previous Genesis cars (excluding the gv60, although the magma fixed that) have looked fantastic, but this...

This thing has that EQS vibe.. ugh. The front is ugly with the fake grill and the droopy stance, the roofline near the rear blends in to one of the worst looking rear ends I have ever seen (too flat), and the windows extend too far back! I guess I've been spoiled by Lucid's designs (particularly the Gravity in this context). If only more people could use the Lucid approach, where the car still looks "solid" WHILE being curvy. I can almost guarantee you that despite the melted soap bar design, the Gravity will be more aerodynamic while looking much more upright!

Latest picture of GV90.
Looks like it will have decent third row space, but too much exterior size for me.

One version is supposed to have captains chairs.

The largest and most luxurious Genesis electric SUV is almost here. It will be the first full-size Genesis electric SUV...

But if he liked the cybertruck and he thinks this is ugly, how many orders of magnitude of fugliness does it make it? I'm no fan of the anesthetics either - starting with the name, Neolun??!! Really? More like Neolump...

Looks like a 2007 GMC Tahoe to me:

True.
Extended version.

True.
Extended version.

It looks like a Honda Odyssey had an affair with an Escalade ESV, but the baby came out disabled and they divorced after three years. Don't ask why it's so specific, but it is pretty accurate!

Well it's a big ass, boxy SUV tailored to the stereotype of what ugly Americans like in a vehicle....Should sell well

It might.
Genesis does offer a good warranty on their cars. I've heard good and bad about their dealerships.

I really thought the GV90 would be a larger version of the ICE GV80, which I like.

Before deciding on an ev, I was planning to buy a GV80.

The GV80 looks much nicer than the neolump. The back end starts to taper starting at the rear wheels and angle of the rear windshield looks better than the straight up and down. I agree they should have stuck with the GV80 design.
