Hyundai does not build many cars like the Hyundai Grandeur: a 4-door sedan with 2.0 L Hyundai Sirius engine#G4CP, built from 1986 in the age of turbocharging and the first electronic engine management.
How it came about
The Hyundai Grandeur (Korean: 현대 그랜저), is an executive car / full-size car manufactured and marketed by the South Korean manufacturer Hyundai since 1986, over seven generations.
The Grandeur is Hyundai's flagship mainstream sedan, positioned below the Hyundai Dynasty, a more premium equivalent introduced in 1996 and the Equus, a flagship luxury sedan introduced in 1999, and it was also known as the Hyundai Azera in other markets such as North America and Middle East. Since 2017, the Azera is no longer marketed in North America, specifically both the United States and Canada, as it was overshadowed by the Genesis G80, and it continues to be available in both South Korea and Middle East.
The hardware
Under the skin sits 2.0 L Hyundai Sirius engine#G4CP; other versions carried different engines, listed in the specification table below. Kerb weight is 1409 -. The gearbox is a 5-speed manual / 4-speed automatic. The wheelbase is 2735 mm. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.
Family and rivals
Where it sits in Hyundai's history is not in doubt: the Hyundai Granada came before it; it was built at Ulsan, South Korea. On a showroom list of its day it stood against the Jeep Wrangler, the BMW 5 Series, the Ferrari F40. Its Hyundai stablemates include the Hyundai Accent WRC and the Hyundai Accent.
The money
There is no federal ownership record for the Hyundai Grandeur — it predates the complaint database or was never sold in the United States — so MotorJury publishes no running-cost figure for it. For a car of this age the price is set by the collector market and the condition of the individual example, not by a formula.
