people say that hyundai equus is good?

The styling pays more than a passing resemblance to the original Lexus LS400, with long overhangs & a boxy shape. It may not be to European tastes, but the overall look is well finished & the detailing impressive. The nose is dominated by a chrome grille, although the Rolls-Royce-style emblem on the bonnet is verging on the ostentatious.

In keeping with modern trends, the Equus' indicator repeaters have been housed in the wing mirrors like those of the Mercedes range. Move inside & the executive car feel continues. Virtually every conceivable luxury is standard, with the most impressive feature being the ventilated, air-conditioned, leather-trimmed seats. Electronic tyre pressure monitors r a useful addition, & traction control is also included.

On the road, the Equus wafts passengers along in comfort, but do not expect a sporty drive. The soft suspension set-up is ideal for motorway cruising, but any cornering on rough surfaces leaves the Hyundai unsettled & struggling to fight off excessive body roll.

Power comes from a choice of 2.0, 3.5 & 4.5-litre engines, all of which offer gutsy performance. This 207bhp 3.5-litre V6 was smooth & refined, but the five-speed automatic gearbox felt jerky at low speeds & seemed to hunt for the right gear in town.

With the unpopular XG30 axed earlier this year, Hyundai is now without a plush flagship in the UK, but there r no plans to bring the Equus here for now. However, given sufficient demand, bosses could be forced to change their minds - & the Equus proves that the firm can cut it in the executive class.

Overall,i think the hyundai Equus is rather inferior to Lexus,And Lexus is of course,Inferior to Merc.The Equus is also quite pricey.Btw,Resale value of the Hyundai is low,depreciated too fast. l dont reccomend u this car.

l will make it simple. Yes

Hey Stephy, l am afraid that you got your information from a bias medium. The bottom line is that the car is a very solid car and was designed and build to 'compete' with luxury models from Mercedes & BMW to name a few. If the Equus corners poorly then it is suffice to say that the same is true with the mercedes & BMWs that it was made to 'compete aggressively against.
