The first generation of the Hyundai Equus executive model hit the market in 1999. In fact, the car was a modified copy of the Mitsubishi Proudia. In the car market it was known under the name Hyundai Centennial. The second generation of the executive sedan is based on a modified Genesis platform. The European premiere of the model took place only in 2009 at the Geneva Motor Show. And in America the car was shown a year later - in 2010 at the Detroit Motor Show. In September 2009, the manufacturer introduced a lengthened version of the Equus model. The car body has been increased by 30 centimeters. A 5-liter V8 petrol engine is installed under the hood of the executive car. Later, an extended modification became the basis for the production of an armored limousine. The car was designed specifically for the security service of the President of South Korea. The 2011 Hyundai Equus is an updated version of the flagship sedan first unveiled to the public in 2009. Compared to its predecessor, the appearance of the new model has not undergone almost any changes, except for the LED headlights, which are now available to car buyers in the maximum configuration. The main differences between Hyundai Equus 2011 are hidden under the hood. First of all, we are talking about a new gasoline 6-cylinder engine with a volume of 3.8 liters and a capacity of 290 hp, which was installed on the updated Hyundai Equus on a par with the V8. At the same time, the senior engine has a volume of 4.6 liters and a power of 373 hp. It is noteworthy that the V6 is only slightly inferior to it in acceleration dynamics, allowing the car from a standstill to pick up a speed of 100 km / h in 7.2 s, versus 6.4 s for the V8. At the beginning of 2013, the second generation Hyundai Equus underwent a deep restyling again. Externally, the new Equus, like the previous one, is very similar to the Mercedes S-Class. Classic proportions, a radiator grille with massive horizontal lines, shiny rims stylized as propellers ... The updated Ekus mostly retained the elegant features of its predecessor, changing only in nuances: bumpers were retouched, even more chrome appeared on the body, the optics changed slightly. True, despite all the traditionality of the look, it was not without stylistic blunders. In the headlights, for example, two rather specific "horseshoes" of point LEDs have appeared. In Russia, the Hyundai Equus is available in three different trim levels. Initial - 3.8 GDI Luxury.
