Genesis GV90 Patent Filed in India Ahead of 2027 Launch
Hyundai’s luxury automotive brand Genesis has filed a design patent for its flagship GV90 electric SUV in India. The development comes ahead of the brand’s planned entry into the Indian market in 2027.
The Genesis GV90 will sit at the top of the company’s global SUV lineup and feature a three-row cabin, premium equipment and an all-electric powertrain.
The patent filing indicates that Hyundai is considering the flagship SUV for India, although the company has not officially confirmed its launch timeline. The GV90 will be positioned in the ultra-luxury electric SUV segment.
Genesis GV90: Exterior Design and Interior Features
The Genesis GV90 features the brand’s signature two-line LED lighting design with a distinctive V-shaped front profile. Other exterior highlights include a large clamshell bonnet, chrome detailing, frameless windows and connected LED tail lamps. The SUV will also get large alloy wheels measuring up to 24 inches.
Inside, the GV90 focuses on luxury and technology. Its cabin features Nappa leather upholstery, a 24.6-inch OLED infotainment display and a 25-inch head-up display. The infotainment system uses Genesis’ Pleos Connect software.
Other highlights include powered seats with massage functions, a 25-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system with Dolby Atmos, a digital inside rear-view mirror and a panoramic glass roof. The SUV also gets 12 airbags, including a roof-mounted airbag designed to improve occupant protection during a rollover.
Genesis GV90: Battery, Range and Performance
The Genesis GV90 uses a large 123.5kWh battery pack that supports a claimed driving range of approximately 500km on a single charge. Its dual-motor all-wheel-drive setup produces up to 657hp and 800Nm of torque, according to the reported specifications.
The electric SUV supports 350kW DC fast charging, which can charge the battery from 10% to 80% in around 22 minutes under suitable conditions. Other mechanical highlights include air suspension, adaptive dampers and rear-wheel steering.
Genesis GV90: India Launch and Expected Rivals
Hyundai plans to introduce Genesis in India in 2027. However, the company has not confirmed whether the GV90 will arrive alongside the brand’s Indian debut. If launched, it could compete with the Kia EV9 and Volvo EX90 in the luxury electric SUV segment. Genesis has not announced Indian pricing yet.
