Südkoreanischer Hersteller: Genesis bringt SUV mit drehbaren Sitzen
Die noble Hyundai-Schwester zeigt ihr zweites E-Modell: ein SUV, das vor allem beim Konzept für Sitze und Türen heraussticht.
South Korean automaker Genesis unveiled its new premium SUV, the electric GV90, at a showcase in San Francisco. The 5.29-meter long behemoth of Hyundai's upscale sibling was revealed and is expected to hit the market in the coming months, the manufacturer announced. The high-end focus is evident in the seating and door concepts: with a 3.25-meter wheelbase, there's ample legroom in the rear row on a heated hardwood floor.
Moreover, the GV90 comes equipped with mirrored-opening doors that don't require a crossmember, resulting in a particularly wide opening according to the company. The front seats, meanwhile, can be rotated electrically by 180 degrees, allowing passengers in the back to converse with the driver while the vehicle is charging. The technological foundation of the GV90 is shared with the Hyundai Ioniq 9 and Kia EV9, but the vehicle falls short in the power department: its battery packs 124 kWh, providing around 500 kilometers of range and can be charged at up to 350 kW.
The twin motors in the front and rear deliver a combined 490 kW/666 HP and up to 800 Nm of torque. Additional technological highlights include a ceiling airbag, air suspension, and rear axle steering. Genesis has yet to release pricing details for the new SUV.
