New York 2010: 2011 Hyundai Equus in American version
[ Friday, April 30th, 2010 | by automotiveroom | under CAR, Hyundai, New Cars ]Mistress Hyundai is South Korea, but we had crystal clear that in no way the Equus would remain confined to his home country while German and Japanese CAMP were higher in upper segments of the world. Fewer still, considering the amount that the manufacturer of millions invested in their development. The launch of its high performance sedan in the United States had already announced a few months ago, and now officially introduced the Motor Show in New York.
Facing the South Korean model, the distance U.S. Equus the wise choice of a new grille with horizontal bars protected, imitating the design of the limousine version. Also moved winged hood trim (replaced by the shield of the model, we did not expect to see out of the East), but apart from that the car remains faithful to the few original lines of the original.
Like Genesis, technical point of origin, the Equus leaves its rear axle drive at the hands of a Tau 4.6 V8 engine of 385 horses (U.S. approval) and a six-speed automatic transmission (technical details here). Also like the Genesis, the Equus is not exactly a bellezón, but is equipped to the top and promises a ride comfort comparable to that of any of its rivals, thanks in part to its sophisticated independent suspension with adjustable air suspension. Where there is no comparison possible is in the price: Hyundai Equus America will launch this summer at a price which will be around $ 55,000, 49,000 euros to change. Lexus has reason to worry.autocarbe
