Genesis twins take aim at luxury CT market

GENESIS has revealed two stunning near-production concepts that preview just how serious the Korean brand is at lifting itself up to the level of Mercedes and BMW. Called the X Gran Coupe and X Gran Convertible, the pair are new derivatives of the full-sized G90 saloon sold in overseas markets, yet enter a segment that even the Germans have largely left behind.

The pair are similar in size to the former Mercedes S-Class Coupe and Cabriolet and BMW 8 Series, and push the brand into an exclusive, low-volume segment. While billed as concepts for now, the pair are close to production in terms of their execution, with functional door handles, lighting, mirrors and a retractable rear parking camera.

TOYOTA PRUIS

ALTHOUGH I wouldn't yet say the honeymoon period is over, a couple of things about the Prius have started to irritate me of late, by far the most irksome of which is its overzealous ADAS package.
