Genesis Magma GT: Release Date, Price, and Confirmed Production for Korea’s First Supercar
The Koreancarblog

The automotive world is filled with anticipation over the official confirmation of the Genesis Magma GT—a true mid-engine supercar that marks a monumental step for the Korean luxury brand. Set to be the first domestic supercar from South Korea, this car is more than just a concept; it is a confirmed production model and the official “halo model” that will define Genesis’s performance DNA for the next decade.

Here is a detailed breakdown of everything we know about the Genesis Magma GT, including its breathtaking design, expected performance, and crucial launch details.

The Birth of a Performance Heritage: The Magma GT’s Significance
The Magma GT is being launched as Genesis’s 10th-anniversary celebration model, a statement piece to establish the brand’s long-term performance heritage. Crucially, it is a Magma brand-exclusive mid-engine supercar, distinct from existing models (like the GV60 Magma) that are based on standard vehicles.

Positioned to compete with high-performance halo cars like the Chevrolet Corvette and Nissan GT-R, the Magma GT signals a serious commitment to engineering excellence and raw power from the Hyundai Motor Group.

Performance and Power: Unconfirmed Engine, High Expectations
While the exact specifications remain a mystery, the Magma GT is confirmed to run on an internal combustion engine (ICE).
Initial footage and the car’s loud, deep exhaust note have led to widespread speculation that the powertrain is a V8 engine. Though the official figures are pending, it is widely anticipated that this mid-engine marvel will target a performance output of over 700 horsepower to be competitive in the high-end supercar market.

Genesis Magma GT Release Date and Price Forecast
The timeline for the Magma GT’s launch is firming up, though its high-end positioning means an equally premium price tag is expected.

Launch Timeline
  • Production Vehicle Unveiling: Expected in the second half of 2026.
  • Official Release: The Genesis Magma GT is anticipated to hit the market in the first half of 2027.
  • Expected Price: Projected to start at approximately 200 million KRW (Korean Won). This estimation places the starting price at roughly $136,000 USD in Korea, which doesn’t mean that will be the price for U.S, where usually are more expensive compared to Korea.
