Genesis has made proper waves in recent times, upsetting the luxury pecking order with stunning and well-received cars like the G90 and the GV80 Coupe Concept. The latest vehicle to come out of the design studio of the Koreans might just be the most jaw-dropping one yet, and the best thing is that anyone can drive it.
Anyone who plays Gran Turismo on the PlayStation, that is. Meet the Genesis X Gran Berlinetta Vision Gran Turismo Concept, a mouthful of a name for an eyeful of a car.
Unveiled at the Gran Turismo World Series Nations Cup in Barcelona, this hybrid hypercar concept not only looks fast but it also rocks a drivetrain befitting its outrageous exterior.
A V6 engine churning out 870hp is joining forces with a 201hp electric motor for a total system output of 1,071hp, or enough for some serious onscreen driving fun.
Low-slung and with a drag coefficient of just 0.34, the Gran Berlinetta VGT is designed to cut through the wind and incorporates clever aerodynamic aids like a front intake that exits through the hood and the sides, and a diffuser visible at the shapely rear.
All of this should glue it to the many Gran Turismo 7 tracks when it becomes available in January 2024. Until then, players can marvel at the sci-fi cockpit, the huge wheels, and the large light signature at the front.
