- In this video I give a full in depth tour of the 2011 Hyundai Equus Ultimate. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.

I love where Hyundai is going. It's amazing how well the brand turned around in a couple years. Before then, no one talked about Hyundai. Now they're everywhere.
10 years later, you were correct.
I purchased this car about 2 yrs ago-under 100,000 miles...I LOVE THIS CAR SOOO MUCH! To this day most 2019 brand new cars STILL DONT have what this car offers-THE AIR RIDE IS INCREDIBLE!! So soft...you can get a 2011-2012 for VERY reasonable price!!
So U recommend this vehicle?
I was going to buy a Ls460L hybrid this week, but Equus would save me a lot. Instead of paying $101k, I'm paying $60k instead, with more features, and an amazing warranty.It makes so much since!!! I love it!!
OK I've been looking at the Audi A8 for a couple years. I've made up my mind and am buying this instead. Great job Hyundai.
RotaryPerfection did you get a equus
Jeremy Chaneyfield they have came a long way. I recently traded my Equus in for the new G90
Khalid Mohammed looking at getting one trading in my 2010 maxima sv premium
Jeremy Chaneyfield do it sir
Shrink the trunk, elongate it, and allow both rear seats reclining capabilities. Optional bi-turbo v6 for better mpg, panoramic roofing, and make the fridge optional or relocate it. Otherwise very nice.
just goes to show you how over price some brands are, if Hyundai can sell a car like this at this price why can't other auto makers.
Absolutely correct....I own one and all the Lexus and merc owners ALWAYS chat me up anywhere I go. My car has the raised hood ornament as well. The lines of the car and the class as it pulls in places is great. Love this car.
By far my favorite in depth tour. every question i could possible ask has been answered about this car!
very smart of hyundai to use a different badge than normal, avoids some snobbery based on simply seeing a badge and making an unconscious judgement. The front shape looks fantastic!
I want to buy a 2012-2013 Signature for my wife, as of 2015 with the loads of features and the 429 horsepower engine these is a steal compared to spending 30 Grand on a new Honda Accord or similar new midsize or having to settle for a small Mercedes or Audi or Infiniti for the same or more money!
Omg I always ask myself should I go with my heart which says equus "centennial" or my mind with maserati ghibli and then while watching this video a song was playing which was listen to your heart! After this im definitely buying 2014 equus! This is a message from God, I never wanted to watch a review of the older equus and when I did it happened for a reason
Too bad Cadillac, Infiniti, and Acura don't have a car like that, and it's a shame.
Actually Cadillac is releasing the CT6 soon which is like a short wheelbase 7-Series
Raghav Maini not even close to the quality of this vehicle
marc1093280 Infiniti and Acura suck!
Its a Drag Queen , Why buy this when people can buy a real car .
Lexus
I think Nobody couldnt even think that Hyundai can step up this far in the car buisness five years ago. I was impressed by the Genesis models, but this Equus impresses me even more.
I work at a hyundai dealership, we did massive burnouts in these, epic fun love this car
What a beautiful car.
ever since this car came out I have fallen in love with it
Amazing is all i got to say, they have really came a long way.
I've always admired the Lexus LS 460...but this car is amazing. Love the styling all around, especially the front. Very bold.
This car is gorgeous on the inside!
Equus in Korea has Limo version which has 3.8L GDi or 5.0L GDi(optional) mated with 8AT.
The 4.6 is the most reliable tho
Beautiful example of a company that has nothing to envy anyone :)
Having been in one of these, I think it is a lovely car and when other people are in it.
The radio always plays good music when he films!
Found a 2013 Equus Ultimate for sale at a used lot in Nor California for under $16k. Has over 150,000 miles but wished I could get it. Looks very clean despite the mileage.
This has massive presence in real life in person, as much presence as a phantom especially in black in oncoming trafic..
Wow, quality looks outstanding on this car. Hyundai have really come up in the automotive world.
Valve cover gaskets are the only issues on Benz V8 motors. Other than that they're rock solid. Silky smooth and tons of torque is the main reason why I love them.
21 minutes?! i gotta start planning my life around these in depth tours.
This looks superb. It does need some more little refinement of the center console but at this price it's a steal compared to the venerable competition.
I think this is your longest video. :D The car really has a lot of features to cover. Awesome.
Wow, I never knew Hyundai could make such a nice car.
Imagine an AMG Engine in this. This thing would be a rocket gone wild
A korean maybach
Hyundai is really stepping up. Very beautiful car.
The depreciation is actually a good thing because in the used car market they're a steal. You can get a CPO S550 for $45k with full service history, AMG package amongst other options and low mileage. I driven several times in a W140 Benz and to date it's the best car I've driven in.
Thank you for the review. And what a great history of success Hyundai is!
At first when hyaundai came to the states in 1986.. I thought that it was a car you use and throw it away. A joke per-se. Now I'm starting to like and respect Hyaundai in every given way. And this equis is one of those cars. Mercedes. BMW. AUDI. And Cadillac. Watch Out. There Maybe A New Sheriff In Town. Nice Vid.
bmw 7 series beat this this is like a mercedes S class
90% the quality of a lexus ls460 at 60% the price
Dream on..lol.
@@Nightbird. why do u hate on this car so much. It looks awesome for the price. This will outrun a dodge challenger srt
@@Nightbird. cry more
@@Nightbird. lol you deleted your comment? Why :)
@GhostLegit this will not outrun an SRT8 in a Race you’re reaching…. I have an SRT8 and an Equus and in terms of performance this can’t win
You could live in that thing! It looks like it's truly designed for the rear occupant.
love your reviews the best. they are solid and have the same pattern. keep up the great work
this is an AMAZING car. they're very special, my local hyundai dealer isn't even certified to sell them and trust me, it's a big dealer)
wow...this car is amazing for a hyundai
alot of cool features in this car! Im impressed!
I don't know why everybody is saying this car is gonna fail I've seen like 5 of them already, and this is a vehicle that's in limited release. It's too early to be making assumptions on this cars' success. Most people who are pointing out the negatives about this car are just nit-picking; like complaining about the chrome or not liking the design of the badge which are just personal preferences and not actual flaws.
amazingly beautiful
AMAZING car!
Hyundai best car yet.
Very nice vehicle, good value in this segment. I applaud Hyundai's work. I do have one question, when the right side rear passenger seat is reclined causing the front passenger seat to move completely forward can the driver still see the passenger side rear view mirror?
Not only the car, but the review itself was ultimate by its length and detail. About the vehicle: The care and attention paid to the rear compartment, lead me to believe, that the designers aspire to compete with Maybach and other chauffeur-driven super-luxury vehicles. So it's not exactly peoples' car, plus the timing is terrible since the NA economy going through a structural depression.
PS Kyle, you should be much more careful about reving-up brand new vehicles' engines.
I dont care that its a hyundai, its awesome!!!
Beautiful vehicle not to many of these particular models on the road Equus Ultimate some features you find in this car is on the cars that cost thousands more, rides like you're floating on a cloud reliability is a 10.
Hell yeah, I sat in one of these at an auto show and its way nicer than any of the mercedes, BMW's, or Audis.
What a beautiful car that is! =D I can see the future of cars now.
listen to your heart! i love that song
getting one Thursday a signature I cant wait!
i love this car, it just looks alive to me. like the headlights are corneas. it captivates
piece of art..
Can you make a video on the newer equus models? Like from 2014-2015?
Any idea what the maintenance cost of this car would be?
Inexpensive
Seeing a new video from you in my sub box makes me day...keep it up Kyle...
I have yet to see one of these cars where I live, but great video Kyle!
Your vids have really changed my mind about the Hyundai brand. I was thinking of purchasing either an audi, acura, or chevy camaro, but I like this car. The genesis is great also. Thanks.
Hi Kyle, can you do an in depth video of the new (or old) BMW 5 series?
I work at Hyundai part time. I wont say where. Ive handled the 14 model. I do like the TV screens mounted on the rear of the two front seats. It now comes with a 5.0 8 spd automatic engine. While Im impressed with some of the features, the 70K price tag is a bit much for it if you ask me. The Genesis 4 door now also comes with a 5.0L engine also 8 speed and looks similar.. If you ask me, this car was made for the passenger, NOT the driver
At a certain point, it might be better for Hyundai to create a luxury division. Take the Equus out of what is an acceptable price point for Hyundai. That way, they can stuff all the goodies into it, charge it north of $80k, and seriously compete with the luxo big boys without being restricted by the brand perception.
Too much? Spec a Mercedes or a BMW with the same options and then come tell me its too expensive.
+Steeve McCloud That's because people are paying for the badge at this price and to them it being cheaper don't appeal to them. I rather get the Genesis, it looks better and I like the name more...lol
That is the K9... The final product...
The K9 has been selling really well in Korea for the past year.
I love this car
Its hard to believe that Hyundai build this car.....Its even harder to believe the price of a used one.
Curious why a front-view camera would be needed while driving :-)...very good review Kyle! One of your best, detailed and informative and great camera work...all you need to do now is review the driving dynamics of the cars you test...
The frt camera only shows when activated and then is only displayed when you press the brakes and speed is down to around 5 mph.. Also turns off immediately when you take your foot off the brakes. Helps with forward parking and turning to see the curves.
Beautiful.
alot of Brand Conscious people will Turn their nose up at this because its made by Hyundai,but you can't deny hyundai is making some pretty awesome vehicles these days,the Equus shows just how far they've come....if you didn't see the badges you'd swear this was a Lexus or Benz....it looks that good.
It's a fine machine shame it's too hard to sell these when they become second hand!
I remember watching another review of this car "and when I click this button the seat reclines and puts the footrest up, and look the front seat turns into a lovely leather ottoman!"
LOL
After reading thru a few comments, I have come to the conclusion that people that can not, will not, alot of folks r saying they would not buy this car over a S class of 7 series or LS series, but they can't afford any or either. Regardless of what all think, this car is better than ALOT of cars out there an ya'll don't seem to c that Hyundai has taken stair steps getting to this point with the new Sonata an the Genesis, they didn't jus spring it like VW an the Phaeton
As an ex-MB owner, I can definitely vouch for that. At 100k miles, they just pretty much died. And nobody but the dealership would fix em. So it was so fucking expensive to fix
I am more convinced now. Great job mate!!
Sweet! Great vid as always Kyle!
What a Magnificent attempt by this company,,It paid off.
This is what i call an 2011 Car!
Best part is it's below $100,000 dollars. So if where rich i'd get this car and this car has the all the features and quality of a High-End luxury sedan, I'd got to hand it to Hyundai they just made a quality luxury sedan that can do both performance and at the same time pampers it's passengers with substantial amount of luxury. This is a luxury sedan to be recon with.
I like the shut down sound
@shocktrooper1000 You're probably right but there's no complaints about their compact cars or the Genesis Coupe. Also the things like warranty coverage is also great, they stand by their products.
If I bought this, I'd remove the Equus badges and slap on some Maybach badges :)
The buttons on the side of the front passenger remind me of the Lexus LS which puts the button on the left side too
I used to hate Hyundai's till dad got a 2011 Hyundai Elantra for a work car they are very nice cars... now I love Hyundai...lol!
that shut down chime is extremely cheezy
And Kyle, is this system easier to use than the iDrive in the BMW? More specifically the last gen iDrive.
This is a beautiful car.
@markkjay Yea I agree! This car is far more luxurious than any Mercedes or Lexus I've ever seen.
so pretty much this is a low priced rolls royce. i don't see why there complaining about the $55K+ price tag. car looks like a nice luxury ride. good review of the car bud. and car looks nice for sure.
cant forget that Chime!
Damn, hyundia is coming up thou.
It has a lineup even larger than Honda!
Hey Kyle, can you do a test drive?
Thanks.
Keep up the good work, your da bomb!
This car is fucking gorgeous.
btw its been a year now since i got my baby (460 equus)
ESmartX how you liking the equus
Jeremy Chaneyfield I actually just sold it and bought an E350 coupe and the equus was a great car but i hated the suspension
ESmartX I'm looking at purchasing the 2014 Equus and trading in the Nissan Maxima SV Premium 2010
Jeremy Chaneyfield perfect upgrade go for it
ESmartX Thanks how's It maintenance wise and has it giving you any issues ?
Just one thing you keep mis-stating. The Button on the Steering Wheel with the Car, is not the LDWS, it is the distance control for Smart Cruise. The LDWS is activated on the left side part of the dash. I noticed you said it both here and in your Genesis Video.
@burninrock24 off course,but generally speaking about Hyundai's cars obvious the Equus is amazing!
The international version of the equus is more prestigious imo for two reasons:
1. the name. Its called the centennial which is more classy & sophisticated.
2. the badge on the international version is a sculpted statue rather than a flat badge.
Not even gonna lie I was gonna buy a cls but FUCK that I want this shit
Damn, Hyundai has come a long way since the Tuscon I owned a few years back. It was awful, but this looks better than the E class that my neighbor has...
i honestly still prefer the LS but the equus is a really nice car too
this car is nuts. Like a combination of a luxury car and massage parlor. Wasn't expecting all that crap to be in there
@markkjay I think some people don't like the fact that Hyundai copies a lot of their designs. Some quick examples are the led light strips in the front (most manufacturers copied Audi on this) and the character selection in navi. (Audi's have a circle with letters {recently added a trackpad in some models} and now hyundai has an oval with letters around it) Some of their components like the gear selector, wheels, and grille look kind of cheesy in my opinion.
