Yahoo Autos Genesis X Speedium Coupe Concept interior revealed at Pebble Beach
The Genesis X Concept began as an internal design exercise. When the automaker showed it to the public in April, acclaim convinced Genesis to turn the in-house exercise into an ongoing public exploration; so what began as a big battery-electric coupe has morphed into a fastback grand tourer that now has an interior that is equal parts sumptuous and minimal. The automaker showed the concept cabin during Monterey Car Week, the design hinging on the same "luxury of white space" ethos the brand creates its standalone dealerships around — strong design elements given room to assert themselves in a restrained, luxuriant background.
It's effectively an evolution of the interior in the X Concept coupe, which itself advanced the design from the Genesis Essential Concept. Instead of the deep chestnut leather seats and instrument panel contrasted with black leather in the X, the X Speedium cabin is mainly done up in Monterey Gold leather. A new flourish here is having the driver's seat, instrument panel, and center console element curving around the driver lashed up in Pinegrove Green. The green hue plays on the fastback's Inje Green exterior color, named for the Inje Speedium track in Korea, and the tree-covered mountains surrounding the track.
