In April 2024, Genesis unveiled the brand's high-performance lineup, the Magma, in New York. On December 4, 2024, at the Genesis Motorsports Premiere event held in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Genesis announced its plans to participate in endurance motorsports and unveiled its racing team, Genesis Magma Racing. The team logo is inspired by the initials (ㅁㄱㅁ) of the Hangul Magma (마그마).
