Genesis Neolun Concept Previews Future Luxe EV SUV, Likely Named GV90

• The Genesis Neolun concept previews a future large electric SUV that we expect to be called the GV90.
• The concept has smooth bodywork painted in a pretty mix of Midnight Black and Majestic Blue, and it features fancy coach doors.
• Inside, the Neolun's interior is covered in cashmere and leather, with a real wood floor; the front seats also swivel to face the rears.

As has become tradition at the New York auto show, Genesis presented its vision for the future at its luxurious showroom, Genesis House. The Neolun concept is a large and opulent SUV, with smooth bodywork and a decadent cabin. We believe this concept previews a future electric SUV, expected to be called the GV90, that should arrive in the coming years.

Neulon Is a Large, Luxe Two-Row SUV

The Neolun's name comes from the Greek word neo for new and the Latin word luna for moon. The combination and the concept's tranquil design are said to be inspired by Korean moon-shaped porcelain jars.

The Neolun sports a roof rack that raises when needed but otherwise hides, sitting flush with the roof. Genesis's distinctive twin-line headlights and taillights are also integrated smoothly into the bodywork, with the headlights forming a triangular grille shape as seen previously on the sporty X series of concepts. The Neolun is painted a mixture of Midnight Black and Majestic Blue—a deep, lustrous hue.

In typical concept-car fashion, the Neolun ditches B-pillars in favor of coach doors. Notably, Genesis says the development of these doors has «reached a level where its application to production vehicles is now feasible.» Electric side steps automatically lower when the doors are opened to ease ingress and egress.

The cabin is spacious, with just two rows and kingly captain's chairs for the second row. There is a unique heating system that has heating films on the dashboard, door trims, floor, seatbacks, and console sides. This is meant to efficiently radiate heat throughout the car, instead of blowing directly out of vents in the dash. The sound system is also said to be «advanced,» with the tweeters, midrange speakers, woofers, and subwoofers situated to create an «immersive audio experience.»
