That's a nice-looking car, much more aesthetically pleasing than the current XG350. I think that Grandeur is a great name, if that is what the name will be. But, I don't see anything that makes this car stand out on the road. If Hyundai wants to make a name for itself, people need to see a Hyundai and know immediately what it is. I can see a Dodge fomr a quarter mile away and have no doubts as to what it is. Maybe I'm just overly critical.

I hope this is a car that steals customers away from Lexus and Infiniti because its features are every bit as good, performance is right there, and the value sets it apart.

I don't know what you mean Roy, I could spot a red x in a white box from more then a mile away and know exactly what it is laugh.gif

That is a smooth looking machine.

Although, if they enlarged the grill a little
you could almost call it a Audi !

I tihnk that is a giant step in the right direction. It may start blending in with other cars, but itr will stand out because people will think,"That's a Hyundai?"

That car is definately up to speed with the market, I really love the Infiniti-esque touches.

I think it looks great! And Hyundai is finally getting an image that all the cars agree with. They seem to all have similar headlights, taillights, and grills so that soon you will be able to tell they're Hyundai's before you can tell which one. And I like the wheels a lot...

It looks like Hyundai has made a huge leap in the right direction. This would have to be the only upmarket car I'd buy, The front looks classy and at the same time not old.

Very Upmarket styling.

The name will be Azera, if you go to hyundai's site they have photos and details about this and the new accent on the bottom of the homepage.
