Nice Volvo headlights. Rear looks like it was lifted from a Lincoln and flipped upside down.

There also may be some stylizing differences between the KDM version and ours...

I think they did a good job of making it look more upscale. I like the changes to the front though I'm not crazy about the fender vents. I think the rear is a huge improvement, but those wheels are a nightmare.

I think this update makes the G90 look like a better Lincoln than the actual Lincolns. But not in a septuagenarians-only kind of way, thankfully. The wheels will take some getting used to, but it is kinda cool to see those multi-spoke wheels in 2018.

Nah... this isnt it for me. How to make a car boring and ugly at the same time. I find the Pre-facelift to be more attractive.

Looks a little better, little more upscale, still don't like what they did with the big grill making it go down so low, it should be cut off at the bottom in a straight line instead of being pointed and going so low. I like those wheels, rear end looks more interesting now. Interior looks like it gets some nice updates to the trim, new colors, looks nice, glad they did not get rid of all the physical buttons and kept most of them.

Love the new wheel design- very nice update overall.

They need to open up some dealerships and replenish Genesis inventory.
