Genesis GV90 to feature most powerful battery and next-generation PE system

HYUNDAI has released technical details for the Genesis GV90, a flagship electric SUV built on an entirely new platform featuring the brand's most powerful battery and a world's first roof airbag designed to protect occupants during rollovers.

Designed to redefine the standards for flagship electric SUVs, the Genesis GV90 is built upon an entirely new platform. According to technical information released by HYUNDAI, the core of the GV90 lies in its most powerful and largest battery system ever, supported by a next-generation PE (Power Electric) system.

The battery system aims for both safety and efficiency. Partitions have been installed between battery cells to block heat from spreading to adjacent cells, and a venting system has been established to discharge gas externally to increase stability. Combined with an enhanced cooling system and optimized management technology, the PE system implements the most powerful electric powertrain in Genesis history.

Driving dynamics perfected with multi-chamber air suspension

The ride quality, a key element of driving performance, is perfected through sophisticated suspension technology. The GV90 is equipped with "multi-chamber air suspension," which adjusts the vehicle height according to driving conditions. This device is intended to secure both driving performance and vehicle stability simultaneously.

In particular, the electronically controlled shock absorbers finely adjust damping force through dual solenoid valves. This is designed to continuously find the optimal balance for various driving situations, providing a dynamic yet elegant driving feel worthy of a flagship model.

Eliminating safety gaps with the world's first roof airbag

In terms of safety technology, a new airbag configuration has been introduced to protect all occupants. A notable feature is the "world's first roof airbag," which can protect occupants from above in the event of a rollover accident. This is intended to maximize occupant safety by turning the vehicle interior into a single safe space, or "cocoon."

The technical information provided by HYUNDAI demonstrates that the "craftsmanship" pursued by Genesis extends beyond simple design to technical perfection, ranging from platform design and battery safety to driving control and cutting-edge safety devices.
