Genesis has delivered its strongest indication yet that a production supercar is coming — and according to car.news, the brand is preparing a full lineup of high-performance GT models to rival the Porsche 911 family.
During the launch of the Magma sub-brand in France, Genesis executives outlined plans for a complete motorsport ecosystem, describing a development ladder “from a base car through to a GT3 car.” This confirms that the brand’s racing ambitions will directly influence its road-car strategy.
Because GT3 racing requires full homologation, according to car.news, Genesis must produce and sell a road-legal version of any GT3 car it intends to race. Manufacturers cannot simply create a prototype and badge it — a genuine production model is required.
The most revealing information came from Genesis chief creative officer Luc Donckerwolke, who suggested the brand’s future flagship sports car would not be a single model but a platform for multiple derivatives. He listed versions that closely mirror the Porsche 911 range: S, GTS, roadster, lightweight, and Clubsport.
These comments strongly hint that Genesis understands the commercial reality of performance cars: a broad, multi-variant family — not a lone coupe — is necessary for long-term success.
This direction aligns with the Magma GT Concept, unveiled alongside the GV60 Magma. Though currently labeled a concept, the combination of GT3 ambitions and discussions of Clubsport and GTS derivatives suggests the coupe is destined for production.
Manfred Harrer, head of Genesis Performance Development, highlighted the feedback loop between road cars and racing efforts: “Magma models will help to power our racing future. It’s a continuous loop of improvement,” he said.
If Genesis follows through, fans may soon see a Genesis GT3 racer on the grid at Mount Panorama — and a full GT family of road cars — in the coming years.
