Magma Concept is the second electric vehicle in the Magma program. It is an electric version of the G80 Magma Concept shown earlier this year, with its V6 firepower that produces around 500 hp.
Instead of the orange hue, Genesis dressed its latest study in Acme Blue, which is said to be a China-specific color. It has a carbon fiber body kit similar to its ICE-powered sibling, rides on 21-inch alloys that reduce the sprung weight and improve brake cooling, and features additional aero optimizations.

The ducktail spoiler is smaller, and there are no quad tailpipes anymore, as it is an electric vehicle. The rear diffuser has a motorsport-inspired brake light incorporated into it, and the roof boasts solar panels that slightly improve its range.

Nevertheless, a dual-motor setup would easily dwarf the
