A step above the rest

A great looking car with more features than anyone really needs. So far maintenance free with just my regular checkups. I previously owed a Genesis, after 175,000 miles without any repairs except a few sets of tires. Hyundai has proven to be a very dependable automobile company that I plan on staying loyal with for as long as they let me drive.

Scent Car For The Money But Not A Lexus

Car has electrical problems as well as a bad design for the oil filter causing th car to need service must earlier than most other automobiles. Car sounds lousy when the oil filter needs replacing. Dealership services cheap brands as well so you don't get a feel of exclusivity with the Eqqus plus now the car has been discontinued. I would not have bought this car if I knew that. Battery last only 2 1/2 years at best. Comfortable car but the refrigerator is a worthless option. AM radio awful.

THE FINEST AUTOMOBILE I'VE EVER OWNED

I'VE DRIVEN CADILLAC AND LINCOLN PRODUCTS SINCE THE 60s.. MY EQUUS IS FAR AND BEYOND ANY CAR I'VE EVER OWNED IN TERMS OF PERFORMANCE, SOLID QUALITY AND OVERALL APPEAL. I RARILY ENTER A PARKING LOT BUT THAT I'M CONFRONTED BY SOMEONE WITH QUESTIONS ABOUT THE CAR, AND COMMENTS ABOUT IT'S BEAUTY. I'M 100% SATISFIED!!

The best car I have ever owned, sorry that Hyundai has abandoned the brand as it's uniqueness made it stand apart

The best car I have ever owned, sorry that Hyundai has abandoned the brand as it's uniqueness made it stand apart from all the others. Now that the name has sunk to the Genesis line I will still purchase the new G90 when its time for the replacement but i cannot express my disappointment with the name and brand change. This is the best automobile I've ever owned. With the service that came along with the vehicle it raised my expectations of what to expect and obtain from a dealer, service department and brand, Equus!

Expesive

While this is the top of the line for Hyundai, they are super expensive to repair. Im the lucky second owner of an Equus and unfortunately, mine has been plagued with major repairs. In just a little over a year, I've had almost 7K in repairs that Hyundai won't stand behind due to me being the second owner. It's always the stuff breaking that's not under the remaining warranty that's the killer.

Luxury at its finest!

The 2012 Equus has a ton of room for all passengers. It is a top of the line luxury car without the big price tag. Smooth driving with tons power (429 hp). Turns heads everywhere I go. People are always asking me what my car is (brand/name). Hyundai's safety is amazing! I had a Genesis and I was sold on it's safety after being rear-ended by a big pick-up truck. My family was inside and nobody was seriously hurt. The Equus is the top of the line and I know safety is a priority! Only thing I would add is blue-tooth for music on phone (unless it already has it and I am unaware of how to do it).

Equus 2012

While we have enjoyed this car, we financially could not have kept it had it not been for the good warranty and good service from Jim Ellis Hyundai in Atlanta. Because 2012 was a relatively new model, it seems the bugs had not been ironed out. As I said, we are very thankful the warranty allowed us to keep what would have been very expensive repairs and replacements. As the warranty ran out, we purchased a new warranty. This was just in time to replace another very expensive part. We will keep the car because we like it very much, the major parts have been replaced, and the mileage is relatively low. Please understand that the service has been a major reason for keeping the car as well. It is my understanding the Equus is not being made for 2017. I feel sure it is being replaced by a much improved one under a new name. I hope the new vehicle is a combination of much improved parts and the beautiful design of the 2012 Equus. I would recommend the "new" 2017 vehicle with the needed improvements. To this day, we get compliments everywhere we go.

Best vehicle I have ever owned. Low maintenance and very, very comfortable and very quick! Moderate gas consumption.

Excellent value and exquisitely appointed!
