Hyundai releases teaser of flagship sedan Centennial/Equus

Having just beaten the Lexus GS with it's new Genesis, Hyundai is definitely on a home run on steroids. What we have here are teaser shots of the upcoming successor to the Hyundai Centennial/Equus, which is currently codenamed as VI, the flagship will again adopt the RWD platform first seen on the Genesis, the VI will aim directly on the likes of Lexus LS, BMW 7 Series, Audi A8 and Merc S-Class; of course perhaps with the price of a GS (hopefully).

Sporting of course with all the high end amenities in most flagships, the VI will be powered by a 4.6 ltr V8 engine which is available in the Genesis, and of course, a 5 ltr V8 bored by enlarging the 4.6, offering more power, tax, insurance and fuel consumption, all essential requirements of flagship sedans.
