You could first acquire the XG 30 (in North America as the XG 300) with a 3.0-liter engine, later the revised XG 350 with a 3.5-liter engine. Both models had the same platform and engine range as the Kia Opirus .

design
With an external length of almost 4.90 meters and a width of over 1.80 meters, the Hyundai XG was in the upper mid-range format. Many chrome elements were used on the body.

The Hyundai XG also had an antenna integrated into the rear window.
The XG was only offered as a four-door notchback sedan .

In Germany, the Hyundai XG 30 only had the meaning of a niche model. Despite the comparatively low price at the time and very extensive equipment, the model found only a few buyers.

In other countries - particularly the USA and South Korea - the Hyundai model was far more successful.

distribution
The Grandeur was mainly offered in Japan , the USA (there under the name "Azera") and on the home market of Korea, where it was produced in the Asan plant. These countries are considered to be the three largest sales markets for this model. In Germany , Hyundai reckoned with sales of 2000 vehicles per year.

Facelift
A slightly revised version was presented in Korea in mid-December 2009. The most noticeable changes are the wider radiator grille and redesigned headlights with an LED band as daytime running lights. The taillights also received LED technology. The twin exhaust of the V6 engines is now sportier and fully integrated into the rear bumper. In addition, the Lambda series was switched to the Lambda II series and these were connected to six-stage instead of five-stage machines. Apart from an automatic turn signal, with which the vehicle flashes three times even after tapping the turn signal lever, there were no further changes.
The revised version will be exported to the USA, for example, based on previous demand, but no longer to Germany or Canada, among others. The websites listed in Europe also show the original version at the end of 2010, so that production will obviously continue in parallel.
