Maybe. Car and driver says G90 is 64 db. Quieter than the new S class.

I’ve tested the LS500, it was discussed further up in the thread. 62 dB, my S560 is 59. Pacifica is 63.

But Car and Driver is saying the new S class is not as quiet as the G90

I haven’t driven the new G90 so I can’t comment, Alex found they were the same dB, 68.5 (W222 was 68)

My guess is when I drive one I will measure about 59, that’s pretty much what all the flagships are (other than the LS500)

I know this thread is about the 2023 G90, but I wanted to chime in that I rented a 2021 G90 through Turo last weekend. We were in Palm Springs and there were absolutely no rental cars from any of the companies at the airport so I jumped on Turo. With spotty weather looming, fun things like a Wrangler or convertible were out of the question, and I found a G90 with 19k miles for a wildly reasonable price so grabbed it. My general feeling is 98% "wow". And I also will echo a lot of the thoughts of those who have said the G90 is what the LS500 should have been. It is a big, commanding, heavy, silent, luxurious machine that is incredibly refined with a ride quality that absolutely reminded me of an LS. My only beef was the engine didn't feel as refined (this had the 5.0) or as powerful as what I've come accustomed to as an LS400, 430 and 460 owner. Overall, I absolutely would buy a G90. It was really impressive - and having seen a 2023 on the road and watching many reviews, I know the new ones are even more refined and impressive which is a very impressive feat after spending time behind the wheel of the 2021. Great car, kudos to Hyundai for what they've done. I can't wait to experience a 2023 in person, seems like a special car.

As terrible and disappointing as the recent Sequoia drive was (still writing up my full review) the 2023 G90 I'm in right now is absolutely sublime. Worth every part of its $100K MSRP.
