PARIS: The new Genesis G90 Wingback concept highlights the brand’s commitment to its luxury high-performance vision.
The concept was introduced alongside the recent world premiere of the GV60 Magma, which is Genesis' first Magma production model.
As Genesis continues its high-performance journey with the Magma programme, customers can look forward to greater advancements in performance and technology.
"The G90 Wingback concept is a “bridge between Magma and the One of One bespoke programme,” said Genesis chief creative officer Luc Donckerwolke.
The G90 Wingback concept blends new Magma elements with the familiar design architecture of Genesis’ G90 flagship sedan.
Built on an unmodified G90 platform with its 3.2-metre wheelbase and 5.1-metre length, the Wingback concept draws out new potential within a familiar platform.
Signature Genesis design cues like the Crest Grille, Parabolic Line and the distinctive Two-Line headlamps are intensified.
Flared wheel arches give it a wider stance, housing custom 22-inch wheels fitted with low profile tyres.
In profile, the G90 Wingback concept's roofline was stretched delicately to achieve a sleek grand tourer wagon silhouette.
The rear end replaces the sedan’s trunk with a tailgate housing a sharply raked rear window framed by two spoilers, further accentuated by the performance-inspired rear diffuser structure.
"Magma is about showing what is possible when Korean innovation meets global ambition. It represents a distinct Korean vision of care, respect and balance," said Donckerwolke.
“Where most chase aggression and extremes, we seek balance. Magma is designed to be rewarding, not challenging; to complement the driver, not to intimidate them,” he added.
Inside the luxurious cabin, the concept’s Magma DNA is present in the subtle yet striking green-coloured Magma stitching and details in the lush, quilted Chamude (a suede-like material) seats and door trim, as well as complimenting touches on the steering wheel, dash and console.
The sporty seats also feature an embroidered Magma logo, a reminder of the car’s luxury high-performance identity.
