EXECUTIVE QUOTES
“
Magma is always the best of the best of Genesis models. It’s the superhero of Genesis; a bionic cocktail between the values of the original model, the donor vehicle and this extra facet.
Luc Donckerwolke, Chief Creative Officer of Genesis
„
“
If you think about Genesis, we have this premium luxury refinement—a young brand, [just] 10 years old. We had one gap in the brand and the brand image, and that was performance.
Manfred Harrer, Head of Hyundai Motor Group R&D Division

VEHICLE HIGHLIGHTS
Genesis Magma is defined by three key attributes:
UNSPOKEN DOMINANCE - A dynamic yet elegant look achieved through a low, wide stance, embodying both Genesis' signature sophistication and athleticism.
CAPTIVATING CONTROL - Precise control of power and vehicle behavior, enabling seamless movement in any driving conditions.
SHARPENED IMMERSION - Intuitive delivery of essential driving information, enhancing focus and creating an immersive driving experience.
UNSPOKEN DOMINANCE
PERFORMANCE EXTERIOR
- The bumper has been redesigned with a new three-hole structure, which not only enhances airflow and cooling performance but also serves as a distinctive identifying feature unique to the Magma model.
- Black high-gloss molding, dark metal accents and streamlined canards elevate the high-performance aesthetic with a focus on a sleek, monochromatic palette.
- To optimize airflow during high-speed driving and generate downforce, the breather line is integrated into the side skirt, while a wing-type rear spoiler is applied at the rear.
INTERIOR DETAILS
- The seats, door trim and center console are finished in Chamude, a premium suede-like material.
- Buttons, switches and emblems feature black high-gloss or dark metal finishes, minimizing reflective glare and contributing to a composed, elegant interior ambience.
- The steering wheel is adorned with elements exclusive to Magma, including a distinct rim design, black emblem and orange accents on the drive mode and boost buttons.
WIDE & LOW PROFILE
- The front of the GV60 Magma boasts a stable and confident stance, achieved through its wider proportions incorporating wide fenders and lower height by 20 millimeters compared to the standard GV60.
- The GV60 Magma is equipped with Magma-exclusive 21-inch forged wheels paired with 275-millimeter tires.
CAPTIVATING CONTROL
SUBTLE, UNTAPPED POWER
- The front and rear motors generate a combined maximum output of 448 kilowatts (609 horsepower) and peak torque of 740 Newton-meters. When Boost Mode is activated, the performance rises to 478 kilowatts (650 horsepower) and 790 Newton-meters, with a top speed of 264 kilometers per hour.
- Boost Mode enhances output and torque for approximately 15 seconds, maximizing acceleration responsiveness. This enables the GV60 Magma to accelerate from a standstill to 200 kilometers per hour in just 10.9 seconds with the Launch Control function.
MECHATRONICS
- The suspension system has been optimized by recalibrating the roll center and refining the geometry.
- It features Electronic Control Suspension (ECS) and End-of-Travel (EoT) control systems, delivering an ideal balance of cornering stability and ride comfort.
- The braking system is upgraded with front monoblock calipers and large-diameter discs, optimized for the 21-inch wheels, and rear brakes featuring GG-rated high-friction materials, enhancing overall braking performance.
High-Performance Battery Control(HPBC) system optimizes battery temperature for peak performance during racing or drag driving.
NOISE, VIBRATION, HARSHNESS
- Despite riding on wide tires, the GV60 Magma maintains the serene cabin quietness expected of a luxury high-performance car.
- This is achieved through the combination of Active Noise Control-Road(ANC-R), sound-insulating glass and reinforced door sealing.
- Hydro G-Bushings in the front suspension and dual-layer bushings in the rear crossmember effectively minimize vibrations and impacts.
SHARPENED IMMERSION
EXCLUSIVE GUI
- Activating “Magma Mode” transforms the instrument cluster into a 3-circle layout, prominently displaying essential driving data, including motor and battery temperatures, speed and G-force.
- The Head-Up Display provides a simplified view of key information such as speed, regenerative braking levels and remaining boost time.
- When VGS and HPBC are engaged, the cluster also displays performance-oriented metrics — including a performance timer and pedal input levels — delivering key driving data in a clear and intuitive format.
MAGMA EXCLUSIVE SOUNDS
- The VGS feature adjusts motor output, torque and regenerative braking to replicate the shifting sensations and driving dynamics of a high-performance internal combustion engine vehicle while simultaneously reproducing the sound of a high-reviving engine to deliver an immersive and emotionally engaging driving experience.
DRIVE MODE
- GT Mode: A representative mode that reflects the character of Magma, providing sufficient power performance for high-speed cruising while also ensuring comfort and energy efficiency.
- Sprint Mode: A mode designed to achieve maximum performance, with all driving parameters — except for Electronic Stability Control (ESC), which is related to vehicle behavior control — set to their highest levels.
- MY Mode: Drivers can customize settings for the electronic limited-slip differential (e-LSD), ESC and other performance parameters.
- Drift Mode: Combines power distribution and e-LSD to support rear-wheel-focused driving, while HPBC optimizes battery temperature for peak performance during racing or drag driving.
- Boost Mode: Enhances output and torque for approximately 15 seconds, maximizing acceleration responsiveness.
- Launch Control: Delivers optimal starting torque from a standstill, enabling rapid and responsive acceleration at launch.
