Great looking car. it turn heads.The only problem I have is that when you hit a bump, the front sways one way and the rear sways the opposite way. every where I go they talk about the car. they have never seen a car like that,could not believe that was A Equuis

Greatest value in pre-owned market

Great car - luxury features, very reliable, attractive appearance - at a great price if we get a low mileage car coming off a lease. But buy extended warranty policy from reputable company since anything can go wrong with all the electronic features.

Finest car I've ever owned

Recently test drove a new Mercedes S -550 --- sorry Mercedes, your car is fancier but the ride and powertrain are barely as good as the Equus. Hyundai needs to re-think discontinuing this label as I know 2 other people who own the Equus and won't even consider trading

2012 Equus

The vehicle is all I expected it to be and more. Large, luxurious, fast and fun to drive. However, I was surprised to know that the front and rear tires are not the same size. I understand that this is a performance feature, but it would have been helpful to know that at the time of purchase. I was also less than happy to know that the navigation system could not be updated..

Excellent Car!!!

I brought this car two year ago and I love it!!! I'm so glad I traded my 530i BMW in for the 2012 Equus, I got a better car and more features for my money. I would recommend this car to everyone!!!.

Finest Automobile I've owned in 75 year!

I've owned Lincoln and Cadillac products since the fifties, and bought Mercedes, Jaguar and other foreign cars from time to time. From the exquisite finishes, to a magnificent V8 engine/Transmission combo, the Equus is far and above the fines, most solidt car I've owned in nearly 75 years. Although I'm sad the Equus is a discontinued model, I intend to continue driving mine for a number years to come, and will consider a Genesis model, if I then determine it compares overall to the Equus.

Very reliable

I have owned several vehicles but this has been the most reliable car I have ever owned. I am considering a Genesis G90 for my next car because it has been such a great car! I recommend Hyundai to family and friends.

We have owned our Equus since new in 2012, and it currently has just over 50,000 miles on it. It drives like the day we bought it and have enjoyed it very much for its comfort, performance, and style. We get a lot of compliments and are even asked, "Who makes it", for they all guess and say everything from a BMW 7 series to a Mercedes Bens S500. The performance is second to none, and for the amount of HP it has, it has been economical and quiet as well on the open road.

Equis

When the vehicle is running properly, it is the best car I have ever driven. Have had some front suspension problems, but the great Mirak service folks have finally fixed them. The electronics can be a bit daunting to understand and master. But when finally running properly, the ride is so smooth that it's like riding on a cloud. Very quiet inside, and remarkable that a 2012 vehicle is still so advanced 7 years later and runs and looks so good.

Summary of overall performance

Overall I love the car! Would buy a new one but do not feel the need now, I still have low mileage. I don’t really care for the dealership in Las Vegas when I get oil changes, so would not buy new from them.

Equus

This car gives you all you need in a vehicle in room and luxury, have not seen any car that can match. Not even the C90, they broke the mold with that one. I have owned it since 2015, and I would not trade it in for any of the new cars.

Gavagan 2012 Equios

Love this ride.. Its like a space ship.I love the interior and the lay out of the controls. The stereo is amazing and the toogle control works great while driving. The ride in Normal comfort mode is a dream on the Highway. The "Sport" mode is something to behold for a fullsize luxuary sadan. Just Drive one and you'll see. Thank you for the ride.

2012 Equus

I love my car. It’s a luxury car with all the bells and whistles. It has plush seats, cooler between the rear seats and a monitor to watch movies while riding in the back seats. I get very good gas mileage and when I step on the gas pedal it feels like my car tires grips the road and excels with no hesitation.

Best car I've own

Coming from Mercedes and BMW this by far it the best luxury vehicle i have own, the car is loaded with tons of power coming from a powerful 5.0L v8 combined with a silky smooth 8 speed transmission not to mention the best warranty .

Hyundai 2012 Equus

A reliable car that strives to compete with the German/Japanese flagships. I bought it for its value since brand names do not interest me.It's fit and finish cannot be faulted but the interior somehow lacks bling of outright luxury.After 6 years of ownership and 98,000 mines on the odometer the engine gained a few decibels,but performed almost as when it was new.Original suspension and brake components still in operation.

Absolutely love my purchase

When the 2012 Hyundai Equus first arrive at the dealership, I was there. When the salesman Genci told me about the car, even when my Genesis was there being serviced I knew I wanted the car. It did not take long for us to put together a deal to make me the primary owner of one of the finest cars that I owned to date. Nothing makes me more excited , except when I shook hands with Mike the sales manager and Genci the salesman when the deal was finished, and they’ve always promised me that I can have my car cleaned whenever I bring it to the dealership, and without fail they had delivered on their comments and promise, and for that my loyalty is to Gerald Hyundai. I am very happy and pleased with everything you guys have done for me. And I also want to thank you for taking care me in your waiting room with the water, coffee and snacks, on many days when I needed a lite snack or a quick bite, the team provided something to tide me over until I made it home or made it out to eat, so for that I also want to thank you

Hyundia Equus

The best car I have ever owned ( Ihave owned Cadillac and Lincoln and Infiniti in the past). The quietest and smoothest ride ever. Not to mention the overall style of the car. Mine is a 2012 and they haven't looked as good to me since. Another reason I will be keeping this car as long as possible.

ISSUES W/MODEL

I've had my car for 5 years. I had the following issues that I thought were 'unusual' for a luxury vehicle. First I was very disappointed that the car was not so;d as CERTIFIED. Since it was not the warranty was limited to unused portion of 60,000 miles. I had the following problems some were covered by extended warranty, others I had to pay for out of pocket: The actual dashboard lifted up and has to be replaced (very strange) Hyundai will provide new dash but will not pay for installation costs :( Hydraulic system failed and car did not automatically rise up and got stuck on cement parking header, bumper was pulled off. I had to pay for hydraulic system and for bumper!! :( The car has had to have the transmission replaced. It was consuming too much oil so I got the engine replaced via extended warranty. I'm keeping the car for at least 2-3 more years since it's had all major systems replaced and still looks very good! Will thoroughly check reviews on newer models before I purchase another one.
