We’re celebrating the 35th anniversary of our 1986 Hyundai Grandeur flagship sedan with an electrifying retro concept. With an electric powertrain and all-new light and sound features, the Heritage Series Grandeur will seduce you with its ‘80s nostalgia, cutting-edge technology, and luxurious interior.
I’m seeing some pre-Chrysler Mercedes in this, it really speaks to me. Some cars are bricks, and they are bricks in style. Modern Mercedes could never.
I’ve probably saved so much money in my adult life since my childhood “dream” car manufacturer is just making uninspired and overpriced blobs now. Hyundai at least show they have their ears to the ground, even if this is just a concept.
Take me back to an era when new things were cool. I’m sick and bored of novelty; I miss novelty.
Really wish their heritage cars were real. Most EVs today look boring to me, so I agree.
