Genesis X convertible EV concept wins Good Design Awards for transportation

The Genesis X Convertible Concept has won the Transportation category at the Good Design Awards 2023 – making it the ninth year in a row Genesis has secured a Good Design award.

As the brand’s inaugural convertible concept, the X Convertible completes the X concept trilogy and shares its architecture and electric powertrain with the X Concept and X Speedium Coupe Concept.

The convertible’s folding hardtop roof features transparent moon roofs above the front row to create an open ambience even when closed.

“The X Convertible Concept materialises the brand’s ‘Athletic Elegance’ design philosophy in its purest form while emphasising the power of its emotional performance,” says Hyundai and Genesis global design head SangYup Lee.

 “The X Convertible Concept completes the electric vehicle concept trilogy by envisioning the future of Genesis design and inspiration.”

The Good Design Awards are bestowed annually by the Chicago Athenaeum Museum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies, honouring the highest level of design excellence across more than 30 categories.

.Genesis aims to be a 100% zero-emission vehicle brand by 2030 and carbon neutral by 2035.
