The 2026 Genesis GV90 EV Is Coming In Hot – Here’s What We Know So Far

Genesis is out here making moves, and their next big flex? The Genesis GV90 EV – a luxury electric SUV that’s basically the Neolun concept brought to life (well, almost). Caught testing on the Nürburgring, this upcoming flagship looks ready to turn heads and rival the likes of the Mercedes EQS SUV and the Cadillac Escalade iQ.

The GV90 EV Is Big. Like, Really Big.

Let’s talk about size. The Genesis GV90 EV looks massive in spy shots, rolling on flashy 22-inch chrome wheels. Its silhouette screams confidence with a long flat roof, a bold upright front, and the signature twin-line LED lighting we’ve come to expect from the brand. But unlike the coach doors and no B-pillars on the Neolun concept, the GV90 keeps it practical with traditional doors and a full structure – real-world ready.

Built for Performance (and Comfort)

This isn’t just some chunky showpiece. Underneath all that luxury, the GV90 rides on air suspension and comes with rear-wheel steering – both pointing to a super smooth drive experience. It’s been spotted wearing different sets of 22-inch tires too, from Michelin X-Ice to Pirelli P Zero E, depending on the climate it’s being tested in.

Word on the street is that this beast is riding on Hyundai’s new “eM” EV platform. That means 800-volt charging architecture, potentially 50% more range than current models, and support for some serious autonomous driving tech (think Level 3 and beyond). Basically, it’s looking to be as smart as it is sleek.

The Inside Scoop

One thing that caught our eye? The interior. Spy shots reveal a second row that ditches the usual bench setup for a two-seat executive layout, complete with a center console that includes cupholders, a wireless charging pad, and a big screen. There are also buttons hinting at a third-row option – so yes, this thing might be a tech-loaded seven-seater.

That iconic quilted purple leather from the Neolun concept didn’t make the cut (rip to that bold choice), but if Genesis follows their usual playbook, expect premium materials and next-level design touches all around.

What’s the Price Tag?

Expect the Genesis GV90 EV to land somewhere around the $100K mark. Production is likely happening in South Korea, and a full reveal is expected later this year. In terms of competition, it’s coming for the ultra-lux EV crowd – think Lucid Gravity, Mercedes EQS SUV, and the electric Escalade.
