If and when Hyundai does go big, it would be nice if the result of its efforts had the unique distinction and elegant composure of this concept. The Equus HCD-7 is an impressive looking luxury car, one that many would move up to with no regard for the status of badge associated, providing its quality of materials and fit and finish were exemplary. And if its latest production lineup is any example of where the brand is heading, Hyundai just might be able to pull it off.
