Genesis G90 Inspires Two Stunning Concepts – Photos of X Gran Coupe and X Gran Convertible Revealed
The Genesis G90, a luxury sedan that’s been turning heads since its debut, has just given us something new to talk about. Two eye-catching concept cars—the ‘X Gran Coupe’ and the ‘X Gran Convertible’—have emerged from its design, and the photos are finally out. These fresh takes on the G90’s foundation show off what Genesis can do when it pushes the boundaries of style and imagination.
Let’s start with the G90 itself. This full-size sedan rolled out in 2015 as Hyundai’s luxury brand Genesis made its mark. Known as the EQ900 in South Korea at first, it hit global markets like North America in 2016. It’s a car that goes toe-to-toe with heavyweights like the BMW 7 Series, offering a twin-turbo V6 with 375 horsepower standard—or 409 with an electric supercharger boost. Its long-wheelbase option adds extra room in the back, perfect for those who enjoy a chauffeured ride. The G90’s sleek look and smart tech, like fingerprint entry, have made it a solid player in the luxury game.
Now, the ‘X Gran Coupe’ steps into the spotlight. The photos show a two-door beauty with a lower, more aggressive stance than the G90. It’s got that familiar Genesis grille and sharp two-line headlights, but the roof slopes down hard, giving it a sporty edge. This isn’t just a sedan with fewer doors—it feels like a statement. The wider fenders and big wheels hint at power, even if Genesis hasn’t spilled the beans on what’s under the hood yet. I can see this thing cruising fast on open roads, blending luxury with a need for speed.
Switching gears, the ‘X Gran Convertible’ brings a whole different vibe. The photos reveal a drop-top design that keeps the G90’s elegance but adds an open-air thrill. The long doors and frameless windows make it look sleek, and the soft top folds back to let the wind in. It’s still got that Genesis flair—think updated front and rear styling—but it’s built for a more laid-back, scenic drive. The interior looks plush, with space that suggests it’s not just a driver’s car but a ride for passengers to enjoy too.
Both concepts debuted at the Seoul Mobility Show in 2025, and the photos prove they’re more than just sketches. The ‘X Gran Coupe’ rocks a green-and-tan interior inspired by Mediterranean olive trees, while the ‘X Gran Convertible’ goes for a deep blue, nodding to Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. These aren’t random choices—they tie into Genesis’s knack for mixing luxury with personality. Crystal accents and olive wood trim pop up inside, showing off the brand’s attention to detail.
What’s exciting is how these cars build on the G90’s strengths. That sedan’s already got a smooth ride and high-end features like rear-wheel steering. The ‘X Gran Coupe’ and ‘X Gran Convertible’ take that base and twist it into something bold—one for performance lovers, the other for those who crave freedom on the road. Genesis says these concepts hint at their “future potential,” and the photos back that up with designs that look ready to roll off the line.
Will they make it to production? Hard to say. Genesis has a history of stunning concepts—like the ‘X Speedium Coupe’—that don’t always hit the streets. But these two feel closer to reality, with details like real steering wheels and seatback screens borrowed from the G90. For now, the photos are what we’ve got, and they’re enough to get me dreaming about where Genesis could go next. The ‘X Gran Coupe’ and ‘X Gran Convertible’ are proof this brand’s not afraid to shake things up.
