Genesis Unveils the X Gran Equator Concept
The Genesis X Gran Equator concept has made its debut, offering a glimpse into the brand’s future design and luxury features. The vehicle has been described as resembling a Bentley when seen on the street, due to its scale and proportions.
Genesis was born from Hyundai’s desire to develop a luxury brand, led by designers Luc Donckerwolke and Peter Schreyer. The X Gran Equator concept represents a significant leap in Genesis’ evolution, incorporating luxurious elements and off-road capabilities.
Luxurious Interior Features
The X Gran Equator’s interior boasts a streamlined dashboard with intentional switchgear, including switches, buttons, and toggles for enhanced control. The cabin features quilted leather, woven wool, and soft, smooth leather, creating a luxurious atmosphere.
The steering wheel features a ‘racing band’ at the top, indicating potential high performance, and buttons on the lower right and left for power boosts, suggesting a possible electric vehicle (EV) configuration.
Design and Capabilities
The X Gran Equator concept showcases Genesis’ signature design elements, including horizontal dual light bands on the rear tail lights. The vehicle’s rugged wheels and power running boards hint at potential off-road capabilities and future adventure SUVs in Genesis’ lineup.
While the X Gran Equator is currently a concept, it represents Genesis’ vision for future luxury vehicles, blending comfort, technology, and off-road prowess. If produced, it could significantly impact Genesis’ position in the luxury automotive market.
