The Genesis GV60 Magma is a new high-performance EV featuring 650 PS of power and acceleration from 0-60mph in just 3.4 seconds. First customer deliveries are planned for the second half of 2026.
The design of the Genesis GV60 Magma includes enhancements to reduce drag and improve overall performance. The exterior features a wider, lower stance with a 50mm increase in track width and 20mm lower ride height than other GV60 models. Unique 21-inch forged wheels fitted with Pirelli tyres and Magma Orange brake callipers further underscore the model’s high-performance intent.
The model features a unique front bumper design with integrated air vents that channel airflow around the wheels, optimising high-speed stability, a rear wing spoiler and side skirts designed to optimise aerodynamic stability at high speeds.
The GV60 Magma features an 84kWh battery and dual electric motors delivering a combined output of 650PS and a 0-60mph acceleration time of just 3.4 seconds. It shares the same ultra-rapid charging time with other GV60 models of just 18 minutes for a 10% to 80% DC charge.
A ‘Magma’ button in the cockpit gives access to the car’s five driving modes, including two new dedicated Magma modes: SPRINT mode and GT mode.
SPRINT mode aims to maximise driving thrills in a controlled environment such as a track, while GT Mode enhances comfort and efficiency for high-speed cruising.
Boost mode, a feature currently available on GV60 and Electrified GV70, has been further enhanced for GV60 Magma. At the touch of a button performance rises to a combined 650PS and 790 Nm, taking the car’s top speed to 164 mph. The mode activation has also been extended to last for 15 seconds, an increase of five seconds.
Launch Control has been added to the GV60 Magma to deliver optimal starting torque and tailored traction control settings, allowing rapid and responsive acceleration from a standstill and delivering full power without needing to press the boost button.
The GV60 Magma also features Virtual Gear Shift (VGS) and Drift Mode. The Active Sound Design+ (e-ASD+) system works in conjunction with external speakers to harmonise interior and exterior acoustics. When VGS is switched on, the system delivers realistic engine tone, simulating the traditional engine sound of high-performance V6-powered cars.
The GV60 Magma’s suspension system has been optimised by refining the geometry to deliver a lower roll centre for even greater cornering stability, and the braking system has been upgraded.
A GV60 Magma pre-production model is on display at the Genesis Studio in Battersea from now until the end of March.
Order books for GV60 Magma will open soon with customers already able to register their interest online or at their local Genesis retailer.
