2025 Bentley Flying Spur vs 2026 Genesis G90

$272,300 · Sedan

$92,700 · Sedan

Comparison Overview

Choosing between ultimate luxury and attainable prestige often boils down to budget versus sheer performance. The core dilemma here is whether the jaw-dropping power of the 2025 Bentley Flying Spur justifies its $272,300 MSRP when the 2026 Genesis G90 offers so much refinement for just $92,700. Looking purely at output, the Bentley dwarfs the Genesis, boasting a massive 771 hp compared to the G90's 375 hp, a difference of 396 hp. While the Bentley offers a surprising 30 miles of electric range, the G90 wins on fuel economy with 21 combined MPG versus the Bentley's 19 combined MPG. Despite the size similarity—both are large sedans around 208 inches long—the Bentley commands a significant $179,600 premium over the already luxurious Genesis.
