Hyundai has released two renderings of its forthcoming flagship sedan, the Equus. Codenamed VI, this second-generation luxury sedan is positioned above the Genesis at the top of Hyundai's product portfolio. It will compete with the likes of the BMW 7 Series, Mercedes S-Class and Audi A8 in the Korean market.The Korean automaker claims that the design of the VI displays ‘luxurious and powerful style, with a unique bodyside character line and silhouette to highlight the modern sculptural touches'. Judging from the renderings, the VI seems to embody good vehicle proportions with short front and rear overhangs, and an excellent body-to-DLO ratio anchored by large alloy wheels. The new car will measure 5160mm long, 1900mm wide and 1495mm tall. The abundance of high-end details - including LED lamps, and chrome bumpers and side strips - will enhance the vehicle's luxury image.
The Hyundai VI will be officially unveiled in Korea next month. As yet there is no official word on whether it will be available in overseas markets.
