Genesis reportedly close to a deal to buy e-motors from Lucid


A South Korean report says Genesis is reportedly close to a deal to buy e-motors from Lucid for Genesis' X Convertible Concept luxury droptop.

Now only two years away, SJ writes that Genesis saw the finish line looming and decided that "application of Lucid's high-performance electric motors is relatively efficient in terms of time and cost." The fact that Lucid's motors have proved themselves in terms of refinement, range, and output in a luxury segment where Genesis wants to play would also work in favor of a theoretical collaboration. The report also said part of the fine-toothed work includes "ironing out details such as the pricing of the electric motors and the specific models they will be integrated into," hinting the power units could end up in more than just the convertible.
