Genesis Enters Endurance Racing

In a significant move for Hyundai Motorsport, the Genesis brand has announced its intent to enter the prestigious 24 Hours of Le Mans. This entry marks a new chapter for the brand as it aims to compete at a top-level in endurance racing, a domain heavily populated by premium automotive manufacturers.

Strategic Expansion into Prototype Class

Genesis is poised to enter the prototype class of endurance racing, showcasing its advanced technology, innovative design philosophy, and performance capabilities. As highlighted in a statement from Genesis, this opportunity will not only enhance visibility for the brand but also allow it to demonstrate its prowess against competitors like Cadillac, Acura, and Porsche, all of whom are already established in this arena.

Future Plans and Collaborations

While details such as technical partnerships and driver lineups are still forthcoming, Genesis aims to compete under the LMDh (Le Mans Daytona h) regulations. This strategy opens the door for potential participation in both the IMSA Sportscar Championship and the World Endurance Championship (WEC). Additionally, industry rumors suggest that Genesis could collaborate with esteemed racing teams such as Chip Ganassi Racing, which could significantly bolster its competitive edge.

Historically, while Hyundai and Genesis have not yet participated in endurance racing, they have displayed interest with concept cars like the X Gran Berlinetta and the N 2025 Vision Gran Turismo. These ventures into conceptual racing vehicles demonstrate Hyundai’s commitment to establishing a sturdy foundation for its upcoming endurance racing program.
