In the past, I may have said that "in the end still is a POS Hyundai and nobody would buy it."

But now, I've changed my mind.

Thing is though, I rode in Hyundai Grandeur recently and wow!

I came quite impressed how luxurious the car, but mostly how much luxury you get for so little money. And don't think it's the sort of fake wood and cheap raincoat leather you used to get in a let's say big Ford, Opel/Vauxhall for instance, oh no. The Grandeur felt as well made and luxurious as a Lexus... no really... Hyundai certainly wasn't joking when they said the Grandeur is just as good as an Lexus LS!



If I had to make a criticism, is that the Grandeur is a front-wheel-drive car, which smacks of cost-cutting and don't think for one moment is car that likes to be rushed. But 3.3 V6 245 Bhp, Lexus levels of luxury for Hyundai money (around £25.000) and a 5-year warranty... can't complain too much of that.

Here my votes of success to Hyundai with their new Genesis.
