Genesis News: G90 X Gran Coupe Concept Update Shows Production Possible Intent

[G. David Felt]

Taking inspiration from the Italian countryside, Genesis has released an updated X concept built on a production G90 platform called the Genesis X Gran Coupe Concept. Per Genesis press release, the X Gran Coupe Concept is an object d' art meant to set free the passion one has for driving on the open roads, looking for adventure wherever they go.

The exterior metallic green color was taken from the color of the ancient olive trees from Italy's eastern Marche region. Breathing poetry in the gently rolling hills, the X Gran Coupe Concept reflects its surroundings as a multifaceted gem in radiant form.

Genesis wanted to from the start ensure that this updated concept exudes athleticism, radiating confidence as the car roars along the road bringing its true spirit alive. The view from a head-on perspective shows this sporty character with widened fenders, sleekly lowered roofline, creating a commanding presence, a predator poised on the edge, muscles taught and coiled, ready to leap. Kinetic energy brought to life.

The Profile shows a naturally integrated roof line from front to back, shaping a canopy of a true sports car. Reframing an encompassing design of luxury with "Athletic Elegance" is what Genesis is delivering here. The extended fenders are specifically designed to create a three-dimensional look that gives a dynamic, commanding stance. The LED lines of light are designed to amplify the car's increased track that continues to exude a powerful, confident presence.

From country to city, Genesis created this bold silhouette that delivers an elegant, timeless look that is at home no matter where one drives.

The Genesis X Gran Coupe Concept was intentionally designed to deliver a minimalist approach while also having a layered approach like fine jewelry from every angle, attention to details that show intent without being gaudy.

The interior was designed to give a first impression of subtle warmth, yet total comfort from the leather, natural olive wood and other details that show a reassuring testament to meticulous craftsmanship. Genesis took inspiration for the interior from the Mediterranean Olive trees, soil and sun.

Genesis created a lifestyle collection to compliment the X Gran Coupe Concept, this Pasubio Leather accessory set delivers the cars quiet opulence in life and on the road.

The head of Genesis design stated the following: "The Genesis X Gran Coupe Concept established a new benchmark for luxury cars. It elevates the Athletic Elegance design philosophy already apparent in Genesis’ flagship G90 model into a more sculpted silhouette. Its design details, inspired by the Mediterranean countryside, both blend in and stand out even more in this picturesque Italian landscape. In every line, light and texture detail it fuses artistic beauty with exquisite craftsmanship, and in doing so, redraws the map of modern luxury."
