2012 Hyundai (TM) Azera (Grandeur)

Hyundai recently released a set of renderings that offered us a preview of the company’s future Azera/ Grandeur model, increasing the public’s interest for the saloon.

The pictures were escorted by a South Korean-language press release, but aside from a recap of the car’s design features, Hyundai did not reveal any other details on the Azera.

The vehicle, which will be slotted between the Sonata and the Genesis sedans, comes with an interesting look. The company is using a step by step approach, revealing new details about the vehicle at a rather slow pace. The answer to this question is simple – the South Korean automotive producer still hasn’t offered us any details about the vehicles. We’ll remind you that the head of the company’s North American division, John Krafcik, recently offered an interview to Autonews, talking about the new Azera.

As quoted from NetCarShow, “The Azera is a front wheel drive car whereas the Genesis is rear-wheel-drive and performance-focused, so (the Azera) will have greater appeal in northern, snow-states where front wheel drive is important, but there will be a very, very strong level of differentiation between the two cars,” Krafcik said.
