Hyundai Grandeur: specifications, tests and reviews of car owners

The Hyundai Grandeur was first introduced in South Korea 4 years ago. After a fairly successful release, the fifth generation of Hyundai conquered the North American automotive market and then reached the Russian latitudes, where it continues to be successfully implemented to this day.

Smooth lines and design in the style of Fluidic Sculpture

Exterior design of the car body is very similar to the previous generations of Hyundai. Soft, flowing lines and divorces in the style of Fluidic Sculpture around the perimeter of the car were to the liking of many motorists.

The new generation Hyundai Grandeur slightly increased in size compared with previous models. So, along the length of the car "grew up" by a half centimeter, and in width - by 1 centimeter.

The front bumper of Hyundai looks stylish in combination with three-dimensional xenon and fog lamps, between which the radiator grille with chromium-plated coating is in harmony. The dome-shaped roof of the car smoothly passes into the lines of the rear body. Light composition of parking lights, combining stop lamps and LED lamps, looks exquisitely with three-dimensional wheel arches.

Automobile artists tried to adhere to the smoothness and softness of the forms, not only when creating the exterior of the car, but also when decorating the Hyundai Grandeur. The feedback of owners who have enjoyed the sports stylistics of this model is full of positive comments.
