With the recent launch of the V-8-powered Genesis, Hyundai has beckon that it’s ready to climb into the luxury sedan market. And now, the desirous of success South Korean car company is keeping up the momentum and unveiling the 2011 Hyundai Equus, with its sights aimed squarely at premium cars from Lexus and Mercedes-Benz.

Powering Hyundai’s latest flagship is the 4.6-liter dohc Tau V-8 that also sees duty in the Genesis sedan. The Tau is fitted with Dual Continuously Variable Valve Timing and variable induction, with peak horsepower rated at 385 bhp when premium fuel is used, and 378 bhp with regular. A 6-speed ZF automatic transmission with Shiftronic manual mode sends the engine’s 333 lb.-ft. of torque (324 with regular fuel) to the rear wheels.

Equus engineers began with a generous use of high-strength steel in the chassis to provide a rigid base for the electro-hydraulic variable-assist power steering and all-around multilink suspension. And just like many other premium sedans, the Equus relies on electronically controlled air suspension with variable damping to provide a supple ride in normal driving, or a firmer sport setting when the driver feels a bit more racy.
