First look of the all-electric Genesis, the Genesis X Concept

 

Genesis X Concept

The sub-brands of Hyundai Motor Company have also begun to roll out their EVs but are yet to announce the same with Genesis. While the official news about the EVs from Genesis has yet not out but we think this Genesis X Concept would be a great way to start.

The sleek design is inspired by its predecessor, the G80 Essentia. The outer lines are sleeker and bolder.  That 2018 stunner was more disco volante than we've come to expect from any car emerging from South Korea, but the intentions of Genesis were made clear the following year at the Essentia's second debut at Villa d'Este, where news of potential production plans for the car, with either all-electric or hydrogen propulsion options, circulated.

With moderate revisions to the center-lock wheels, windows, and traditional mirrors in place of the concept's side-view cameras, we could see this being a shoo-in for the factory floor. We sure hope so, because this latest coupe is a verified visual stunner. Genesis Global Design head honcho SangYup Lee describes the coupe as "the ultimate vision of Athletic Elegance, the inherent design language of Genesis," pointing to the "signature Two Lines theme" as one of the key stylistic takeaways from this study.

The dual headlight lines, which extend through and past the front wheel arch, serve as the most dramatic use of the motif. Seeing as current Genesis products already incorporate dual-line headlights, it wouldn't be surprising to see the headlight design of the Genesis X reach future models from the luxury brand.

The interior is almost—almost—as striking as the X's exterior duds. Contrasting seat colors for the driver and passenger are one of the most noticeable design flourishes, as is the sculptural treatment of the driver's side dash binnacle that melds with the floating center console. Mounted on that center console is what Genesis calls the "Crystal Sphere Electronic Shift Lever" that flips over to reveal a faceted crystal cap when not in use.
