Hyundai Equus
The Korean manufacturer's flagship is launching an offensive on the luxury sedan category, a segment where prestige often makes all the. Relying on a competitive price and comprehensive factory-standard equipment, the Equus boasts a sporty ride thanks to its 5.0-litre 429-horsepower engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. There’s no all-wheel drive offered, only rear-wheel drive for this model.
