The highly anticipated Genesis GV60 Magma electric sports car is nearly ready for its big reveal—and the latest spy shots give us the the first look to the U.S.-spec model, spied testing in Arizona by our folks from @chrisediting. This is the first time we have seen Genesis first high performance model testing in North America. The GV60 Magma is set to debut by the end of the year.
New Rear Spoiler and Sporty Design Details
The updated design includes a pronounced rear spoiler, aggressive front fascia elements, and what appears to be performance-oriented wheels and brakes. These upgrades align with Genesis’ push to compete in the electric performance segment.
Official Debut at Goodwood Festival of Speed?
Genesis finally decided to skip the GV60 Magma official debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed—a prestigious event known for showcasing high-performance and innovative vehicles or in a future event, and left some space open for sister-brand IONIQ 6 N world premiere.
This launch is especially significant as it will mark Genesis’ first-ever electric sports car and the debut of the Magma performance sub-brand.

What to Expect from the GV60 Magma
While Genesis has not yet released official performance specs, industry experts expect:
- Dual-motor all-wheel drive
- Enhanced battery and motor tuning

- Distinctive styling cues exclusive to Magma models
These improvements could put the GV60 Magma in direct competition with EV heavyweights like the Tesla Model Y Performance, Kia EV6 GT, and Ford Mustang Mach-E GT.

With its striking new look and upcoming debut, the Genesis GV60 Magma is shaping up to be a bold statement in the luxury EV space. As the first model under the Magma badge, it will set the tone for Genesis’ future in high-performance electric vehicles.
