The first thing that pops up when you try to research the Hyundai Grandeur is the Hyundai Azera, the flagship mid-size sedan the company sent to the US that still bore the Hyundai “H” and not a pair of Genesis wings. In the company’s home market of South Korea, the Grandeur nameplate goes back nearly 40 years and holds the title as the brand’s first entry into the executive luxury segment. To celebrate the car’s 35th anniversary in 2021, Hyundai’s designers restomodded one as a pet project.
