rmc523 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/pictures/genesis-essentia-electric-car-concept-new-york/ Last month, Genesis boss Manfred Fitzgerald told us the company's new concept car "will push the envelope definitely further." He wasn't kidding. The Essentia concept is unlike anything else we've seen from Genesis, or parent company Hyundai. It's a low-slung coupe with butterfly doors. And while it doesn't necessarily preview a new Genesis model to come, it shows the brand is certainly pushing its limits in terms of design."A Gran Turismo typology highlights our ambition as a luxurious car brand for the connoisseurs," says Genesis' head of design, Luc Donckerwolke. "Essentia embodies the genetic elements of the Genesis design." The Essentia's backbone is a carbon fiber monocoque chassis, with a high-density battery pack and "multiple" electric motors arranged in an I pattern through the car's central tunnel. Genesis doesn't divulge any further details about the powertrain, only saying "with an estimated 0-to-60 time of 3.0 seconds, Essentia brings sports car-level performance to the realm of electric luxury coupes." Cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
