"Virtually every newly launched car these days is an electric vehicle, but Genesis is not shying away from the capabilities of a V8 engine fitted inside a vehicle that rides any terrain like a boss. Taking the challenge to Ford, which is building an off-road supercar under wraps, the X Skorpio produces 1,100 horsepower and 850 lb-ft of torque for rugged terrain supremacy."
"The visual similarities of the venomous animal include flared wheel arches that resemble pincer claws, armor panels that emulate the rugged exoskeleton, and a roof-mounted intake that seems a bit like a coiled-up tail. The segmented armor panels serve to expose the internal mechanics for quick repairs and maintenance in challenging conditions where time is of the essence. The purpose-built tubular frame has a full roll cage with four-point harnesses."
The Genesis X Skorpio is a V8 off-road concept producing 1,100 horsepower and 850 lb-ft of torque, designed for extreme desert terrains. The concept was unveiled on the dunes of the Rub' al Khali, emphasizing capability in desert landscapes. Design takes inspiration from scorpion anatomy, featuring flared wheel arches, segmented armor panels, and a roof-mounted intake. Construction uses carbon fiber, fiberglass, and Kevlar for lightweight strength. The chassis includes a purpose-built tubular frame, full roll cage, and four-point harnesses. Long-travel suspension, 18-inch beadlock rims, and 40-inch off-road tires provide high ground clearance and good approach and departure angles. Interiors retain luxury features despite rugged focus.
