The Genesis GV90 looks massive charging next to the Hyundai IONIQ 5

The GV90 is set to arrive as the largest, most prestigious Genesis electric SUV to date. With its debut approaching, the flagship EV was spotted charging alongside a Hyundai IONIQ 5, revealing its true size.

The hype continues building for the Korean luxury brand’s first full-size electric SUV. While the GV90 is finally expected to make an official debut later this year, we are getting a better idea of what to expect with prototypes spotted in the US, Europe, and South Korea.

We’ve seen at least two versions: a premium model with coach-style doors, adaptive air suspension, and massive screens on the inside, and another that’s expected to be a standard base variant.

Earlier this month, a covered Genesis GV90 was caught charging at a Tesla Supercharger in Mesquite, Nevada, suggesting it will come with a native NACS charging port, like all the IONIQ 5, and all upcoming Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis electric vehicles.

While we will finally see it in full later this year, the latest spy images give us a better idea of just how big the full-size electric SUV will be.

A few days ago, the GV90 was spotted at a charging station alongside a Hyundai IONIQ 5. Although it’s behind Hyundai’s electric crossover, the GV90 still overshadows it.

Another image shared on NewCarScoops shows it parked in a garage alongside the GV80 Coupe. While the angle doesn’t help, you can still see the GV90’s sheer size from a distance.

Genesis has yet to reveal any details, but local reports suggest the premium model could cost up to 300,000 million won ($270,000) in Korea.

In the US, the standard Genesis GV90 is expected to start at around $100,000 when it arrives as a 2027 model year.

Regarding range, previous reports suggested the flagship Genesis SUV will be one of the first to be underpinned by Hyundai’s new eM platform, which the company said could offer up to 50% greater range than current E-GMP-based EVs like the IONIQ 5.
