Reveiled at the 2024 Busan International Mobility Show (BIMOS), the Genesis X Gran Racer Vision Gran Turismo Concept embodies the latest chapter in the Genesis X series and the Genesis Magma’s high-performance aspirations.
This follows a series of concept car reveals by Genesis, starting with the X Coupe GT in 2021, then the X Speedium Coupe, X Convertible, and most recently, the Neolun SUV.
The fiery orange paint hints at the Genesis Magma performance sub-brand being developed, while the design itself pushes the boundaries set by the Genesis X Gran Berlinetta concept car created for Gran Turismo in 2023.
Staying true to form, Hyundai presented the X Gran Racer VGT alongside the Inster electric car and its existing Genesis lineup at BIMOS, making it the star attraction and the brand’s fourth contribution to the Gran Turismo racing game series.
Genesis X Gran Racer Vision Gran Turismo (Genesis)
Boasting a flamboyant orange exterior with a Two-Line Crest Grille lamp design, this Vision Gran Turismo concept from Genesis is a force to be reckoned with.
Borrowing from modern racing trends, a high-performance racing yoke sits within a minimalist carbon fiber cockpit, designed to put the driver in complete control.
This aggressive design isn’t just for show a mid-engine layout with a long wheelbase and short overhangs optimizes handling, while a rear carbon fiber wing provides superior downforce.
Under the hood lies a powerful hybrid powertrain, featuring a front mid-mounted Lambda II V6 engine enhanced by Genesis’ innovative electric supercharger technology.
This electrified powerhouse cranks out a staggering 1,540 horsepower and 1,051 pound-feet of torque, eclipsing the X Gran Berlinetta Concept’s offering.
