LOS ANGELES: The Genesis GV60 Magma Concept made its global dynamic debut on Thursday at the 2024 Goodwood Festival of Speed, marking the first time that a Magma model is shown in action since the high-performance program officially launched in March.
The dynamic debut, led by Genesis brand partner and racing legend Jacky Ickx on the Goodwood hillclimb, will come as the brand announced on the same day that the Genesis GV60 Magma is on track to enter production soon, becoming the first Magma model to do so.
Sales will start in South Korea during the third quarter of next year, with Europe to follow in the fourth quarter. The production model will closely resemble the concept.
The GV60 Magma Concept, part of the Genesis Magma program, is being showcased at this year's Goodwood Festival, alongside the Genesis G80 EV Magma Concept and the Genesis G70 Track Taxi Nordschleife.
The GV60 Magma Concept, revealed on March 25 at Genesis House New York, is set for production in Q3 2025, featuring enhanced battery and motor technology, and a lower, wider chassis for improved performance and stability.
The Genesis Magma lineup focuses on high-end variants of existing models, emphasizing aesthetics and performance.
These vehicles will include specialised features for sporty driving, such as exclusive chassis and suspension components and a unique sound system.
A new human-machine interface (HMI) with a distinct graphical user interface (GUI) will provide an immersive driving experience by displaying only essential data and functions.
At Goodwood, Genesis has its largest stand yet, featuring the GV60 Magma Concept, G80 Magma Special, and X Gran Berlinetta Concept on the first floor, with the GV60, Electrified GV70, and Electrified G80 displayed on the second floor.
