Korea's substantial executive market will have one more model to choose from when deciding which luxury limousine to buy. Hyundai recently unveiled its latest Equus Limousine, which promises to offer more comfort and luxury than its closest competitors, the Lexus LS460L and Mercedes-Benz S500L.
An additional 12 inches has been tacked onto the stock Equus chassis making for an overall length of around 215 inches. Aside from the extra length, designers installed a horizontal crossbar grille to further distinguish the edition's exterior. Find your way inside and you'll be treated to powered footrests, plush leather, fine woods, a rear seat leg support, and seats with what the automaker calls a Relax Posture Control and Massage System function.
The brand's widely used Lambda 3.8L V-6 and Tau 5.0L V-8 motors can be specified to power the Equus Limo, and there's even a bulletproof edition for those looking for the ultimate in protection.
Hyundai estimates the limo will retail for around $113,000 to $122,180 when it hits Korean dealers in the coming months. Currently there are no plans to export the car to world markets, although the regular Equus sedan is officially U.S.-bound. But if it did come here, and if you were in the market for a luxo-limo, would you consider it over the best from Germany and Japan?
