Genesis Readies GV90 to Take On Cadillac Escalade

The brand’s design chief says the three-row flagship will undercut the Escalade on price.

Overview

  • Genesis plans to debut and launch the GV90 next year as a three-row, seven-seat luxury SUV positioned against Cadillac’s Escalade.
  • Design chief Luc Donckerwolke said the GV90 will cost less than an Escalade while targeting comparable levels of luxury.
  • The model will draw interior inspiration from the X Gran Coupe concept, with materials intended to surpass American rivals, according to Donckerwolke.
  • A Magma performance version of the GV90 is planned with greater power and luxury, featuring orange detailing rather than an orange body.
