2023 Genesis G90 Full Review: A Sign Of Amazing Things To Come — Jason Cammisa Icons w/ Randy Pobst

Jason Cammisa's award-winning, best car review on the Internet tackles the brand-new 2023 Genesis G90 and takes a big-picture look at Genesis' bright future. Starring the original Lexus LS400, the current Lexus LS500h, the all-electric Genesis GV60 SUV, and the first Hyundai sold in America — the Hyundai Excel.

Throughout history, the biggest differentiator between the best cars and forgettable cars has been their engine. As an automaker, Genesis has reached unexpected heights, but it's held back by the workaday engines from its Hyundai parent. Once its products go electric, that differentiator is going away, potentially catapulting Genesis to the top of the luxury-car heap where desirability reigns supreme.

Come along on this enlightening — and hilarious — journey that includes 4 different car reviews, 2 drag races, and a 1994 Hyundai that disintegrates in front of our eyes. All with a bonus BTS outtake featuring the hilarious Randy Pobst.

Jason Cammisa on the ICONS is a:
2022 WEBBY winner (best writing!)
2022 INTERNATIONAL MOTOR FILM AWARDS winner (best journalism film!)
