Genesis Reveals Striking Off-Road SUV Concept to Rival Electric Mercedes G-Class

Saudi Arabia : About production, Genesis hasn’t confirmed anything, but the simplified design hinted at the production readiness.

Genesis has revealed an off-road concept SUV that blends bold design with futuristic tech and hints at an all-electric powertrain. It targets the luxury electric SUV segment head-on. Without wasting time, let’s dive into Genesis’s newest concept that might shake up the luxury SUV game in Saudi Arabia.

Futuristic Design Aimed at Rugged Luxury

Genesis calls this concept SUV a challenge to “traditional SUV conventions.” The absence of exhaust pipes and the sealed front end strongly suggest it's fully electric, aligning it with premium electric rivals like the upcoming Mercedes-Benz EQG.

Key exterior features include:

• Signature split headlights and taillights.
• Bulging fenders that extend the light elements.
• Gigantic 24-inch wheels with complex geometric patterns.
• Split tailgate for easy rear access.
• Four-panel glass roof with flowing side contours.

Rather than follow current EV trends with sleek silhouettes, Genesis goes bold, creating a design that feels like luxury meets expedition-ready.

Interior That Redefines Minimalism and Function

The cabin of the Genesis concept breaks away from modern norms. Instead of a dominating central touchscreen, it features:

Feature	Description
Dashboard displays	Four slim gauges + 3 driver-only circular screens
Traditional buttons	Used for climate and drive controls
Seating	Four-seat layout, front seats rotate rearward
Overall layout	Clean, simple, and futuristic

 

This back-to-basics approach may be a signal that Genesis is aiming to bring this model to production sooner than expected.

Design That’s Both Unique and Purposeful

The roof is especially noteworthy—Genesis skipped a massive glass roof for something more distinctive. The four glass panels offer both visibility and structural separation, creating a light, airy vibe without looking like a typical panoramic sunroof.

The rear split tailgate is another rare but practical touch, suggesting this SUV is meant for both show and go.

Powertrain: Quietly Electric

Though no specs were revealed, the body design speaks volumes. The fully enclosed grille and absent tailpipes strongly suggest an EV. This aligns it with luxury electric SUVs entering the market soon.

Genesis stated this vehicle "challenges traditional SUV conventions," and that statement fits both its design language and likely powertrain philosophy.

Production Possibility?

Genesis hasn't officially announced whether the SUV will become a production vehicle. However, the simplified layout and functional features point to a design closer to reality than some of its more futuristic concepts.

This new concept from Genesis isn’t just eye candy—it’s a serious shot at the electric off-road segment. With its luxurious yet bold design, smart cabin layout, and likely electric foundation, it could give the Mercedes EQG and other future luxury EVs real competition in the Middle East. 

KSA buyers should keep a close eye on this one—what starts as a concept might soon become a trail-ready flagship.
