    President and CEO, Hyundai Motor Company

    It was an honor to present Los Angeles County Fire Department Chief Ronnie Villanueva with 2025 Genesis GV80 coupe as part of California Rises, which we created to help raise money for relief and recovery for the fires in Los Angeles. We used the Genesis Invitational Golf Tournament in February as a platform to raise more than $8 million in cash, vehicles and percentages of sales to help the fire recovery and relief efforts. Chief Villanueva joined the teams at Hyundai Motor America and Genesis Motor America at a town hall last week. I’ve recently had town halls in Korea at Hyundai Motor Company (현대자동차) and Hyundai Motor Group; at Hyundai Motor India Ltd. Ltd, Hyundai Motor Europe and Hyundai Motor UK, and it was nice to be back in California to engage with the team in the U.S. North America remains an engine of growth for the company. Thanks to the hard work of our teams, dealer partners, and manufacturing colleagues at Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Alabama, LLC and Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America (HMGMA), we continue to grow sales in this competitive market, which allows us to give back to the community. Thank you to Chief Villanueva, the Los Angeles County Fire Department, Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation, PGA TOUR, Randy Parker, Claudia Marquez, Tedros Mengiste and their teams who work so hard to deliver outstanding service to our customers and give back to our communities. It’s a great time to be with Hyundai and Genesis.

With athletic yet elegant lines and a turbo-charged engine, the GV70 is where athletic style meets premium performance. In short, it’s a vehicle that drives as good as it looks. What’s your number 1 priority when choosing a new vehicle? See what makes the GV70 a true standout: https://lnkd.in/gdG4eRuc #GV70 #GenesisUSA

  • At Genesis Magma Racing, hyperspeed isn’t just a concept — it’s a reality. That’s how Team Principal Cyril Abiteboul describes the momentum behind Genesis’ ambitious new motorsports program. From developing a V-8 engine to preparing for the highly anticipated debut of the full-scale GMR-001 Hypercar, Abiteboul recently sat down with the Genesis Newsroom to discuss the team’s next bold steps. Genesis Newsroom: It’s been three months since Genesis officially launched its racing program. What challenges have you encountered so far? Abiteboul: I think the biggest challenge is really the time we have available. Building a path is a challenge, but also finding the right facility and building a team. We need to have a group of 60 people who do not yet exist. We also need to have the right equipment for them to operate. Another big challenge, from a timing and engineering perspective, is the powertrain. And anyone who knows about engines will appreciate that we only had six months to develop a complete engine. We elected to go with a V-8, precisely because the V-8 was a great opportunity not to have to redesign a complete engine from scratch and instead take inspiration from our [Hyundai Motor Group’s] existing WRC [World Rally Championship] engine, a very competitive 1.6-liter turbocharged inline-four that we've been using for several years. We took that engine and made it two times four in line, which gives us a V-8. Genesis Newsroom: It sounds like you’re assembling everything quickly. Abiteboul: Yeah, building the team together and putting the different building blocks together is a challenge because nothing existed at first. It's not just a car that we need to build. It's a racing team. An organization. A new identity. Genesis Newsroom: Genesis’ entry into motorsports was kind of a surprise to the racing world. What really happened behind the scenes? Abiteboul: Hyundai Motorsport has been involved in the World Rally Championship for the past 12 years, during which I’ve served as Team Principal since January 2023 and President since January 2024. Early last year, we started to look at different options for a new venture, as we thought it was the right time to assess what could be the next chapter for the Hyundai Motor Group in motorsports. Around summertime last year, we thought that endurance racing was an interesting next step, and ever since then, things moved very, very quickly and very suddenly.
