Genesis, the Hyundai luxury signature, has been in the motor world for a relatively short time. It is currently arriving in Europe gradually with models as interesting as the G70 Shooting Brake. And the future that awaits them is quite hopeful. In fact, it is practically confirmed that the Genesis X Convertible It will go into production almost unchanged. Despite the fact that the big convertibles have been disappearing, the Koreans want to make theirs a reality.
This is how he revealed it recently Peter Lanzavecchia, head of Genesis dealers in the United States. The Genesis X Convertible is a prototype that was presented a few months ago, arousing public interest. First of all, because of its condition as a four-seater convertible, with a completely new design language. Second, because it is a 100% electric model that agreed with the future aspirations of the brand (although no technical details were given).
In any case, it seems that it will reach production for become the flagship of Genesis, a representation model that could battle rivals from the likes of the Bentley Continental GT Convertible. Although everything has a price and said convertible will not be cheap. It would be the way to confirm that the brand is among the most prominent by level of luxury and that is why they could sell it for between 200,000 and 300,000 euros (they talked about dollars, but it’s still an approximation). He also suggested that the production of him would be very limited.
With this information, rumors have also arrived that speak of the arrival of a production Genesis X Spedium Coupe. It’s about a oversized coupe with the same aesthetics as the convertible. It is even to be expected that they would share a platform, so the costs would not increase too much. It is not unreasonable that the Koreans took advantage of the E-GMP architecture that already gives life to other models of the brand. In any case, it is clear that the luxury model family Genesis will have to grow in the coming years and leave room for some copy that increases its level of exclusivity and public perception.
