It is a flagship statement car, and shoppers rightly expect it to deliver on safety as much as it does on comfort.

WHAT REVIEWERS SAY

Reviewers generally praise the G90 for its composed, quiet ride and a cabin that matches or exceeds European luxury rivals in terms of materials quality and refinement. The driving dynamics are described as smooth and effortless rather than sporty. Most reviewers consider it a strong value proposition within the full-size luxury segment, though some note that brand prestige still trails its German counterparts.
