From something practical and real to something in the fantasy realm. And yes, we are still on Genesis. The GV60 Magma alone was not enough drama for the brand at Circuit Paul Ricard. Oh no. Genesis also dropped something so spicy it makes the GV60 Magma look like a warm-up lap. Folks, say hello to the Genesis Magma GT Concept, a supercar that will turn petrolheads into puddles of joy.
Genesis is calling this their first pure sports-car typology, which is a polite way of saying “We finally built something to hang posters of.” The Magma GT Concept is the brand’s new halo model, the torchbearer of its performance future, and the official reminder that Genesis is not playing around in the decade ahead.
The company says this machine represents “Effortless Performance,” which I interpret as: you blink, it goes. The shape alone suggests trouble for anyone with a driver’s license. We are talking about a mid-rear engine layout, a low bonnet that practically grazes the Earth, a sloping roofline smoother than Korean skincare, and rear fenders so wide they probably need their own passports.
Genesis worked its “Athletic Elegance” magic here, too. The boat-tail cabin tapers like a modern speed form. The front canards merge cleanly into the headlamps, because why separate things when you can make them look like one angry aerodynamic blade. There’s also the G-Matrix aero pattern spreading from the front splitter outward—equal parts design flex and airflow wizardry.
Out back, the mechanical two-line lamp graphic anchors an aero setup that screams “track toy,” even though this thing is still technically a concept. And yes, it hints heavily at Genesis’s ambition to enter GT-class racing. With this silhouette, they might as well drop the hint in neon.
Genesis says the Magma GT Concept is the symbolic foundation of its next decade of performance. Judging by what they brought to France, the brand is done being the quiet premium player. It wants trophies, lap records, and a place on your desktop wallpaper.
Obviously, it is a concept, and hence, it is far from being available. So stop asking about the price.
