Genesis' chief creative officer Luc Donckerwolke reportedly discussed the car's production plan in the automaker's annual general meeting. Speaking about that, Peter Lanzavecchia, the chairman of the Genesis National Dealer Advisory Council, said to the publication that when Donckerwolke talked about the car's production at the dealer meeting in front of a couple of thousand Genesis dealers, that is a pretty good sign. However, Genesis remained tight-lipped officially about the development.

Once entered into production, the Genesis X Convertible would be a halo model for the Hyundai Group-owned luxury carmaker. It may witness exclusively low sales volume, but the car would express what's possible from the premium marquee. Lanzavecchia said that the car would be at around $300,000. "I don't know if it's going to be over $200,000 or $300,000, but I guarantee we're going see a lot of Bentley Continental convertible trade-ins on that when it comes to our showrooms," he said.
