The Genesis X (Korean: 제네시스 엑스) is a concept vehicle built by Genesis Motor, the luxury sub-brand of Hyundai Motor Company. The grand touring coupe is powered by a battery electric drivetrain and was first exhibited in late March 2021.[1][2] Styling details reflect the marque's "athletic elegance" and "two lines" design language.
The Genesis X was unveiled on March 31, 2021,[3][4] in Los Angeles, using footage captured on a private rooftop on March 26 at the direction of Jason Bergh.[5] The letter X symbolizes "a hidden hero".[3][6] Specific details about the car's powertrain were not made available, other than that it used electric traction motor(s).[7]
The front of the car shows the marque's signature shield-shaped "Crest Grille" with "G-Matrix" pattern and the "Two Lines" motif, embodied in dual thin headlights that extend around the front corners and continue after the front wheel arch.[5] The hood and front fenders are integrated as a single panel-based clamshell hood, which exudes a simple yet sophisticated image.[5] The side profile adheres to the traditional grand touring design, with a long hood and a short rear deck. On the rear, two-line taillights and diffuser give a sophisticated and sensual image.[8] The car's color, Lençóis Blue, is named for and inspired by the seasonal lagoons in Lençóis Maranhenses National Park.[9]
Inside, the concept features a wraparound dashboard and a floating center console. Furthermore, the slim indirect air vents and the side window molding also echo the Two Lines design theme.[8] Interior surfaces use woven scrap leather for the safety belts, steering wheel, and the airbag cover.[5]
The Genesis X Road Show was held on October 16, 2021.[10] It is the first case in Korea to unveil an actual vehicle. Genesis X was displayed in a three-dimensional space. The design direction was delivered through media art using lighting and sound effects.
The Genesis X Speedium Coupe was derived from the Genesis X and revealed in April 2022. It was characterized as a "freestyle design study" led by Donckerwolke[11]
In popular media
A modified Genesis X was incorporated as a "Group 3" car (analogous to the Group GT3 racing class) for the video game Gran Turismo 7.[12]
