There are lot of ways that a success story can be told, but one of my personal favorite narratives of this type are when there’s a little nerdy kid who gets ridiculed and picked on, only to grow up rich and talented and good-looking and therefore put in a situation to show up all the bullies who gave him so much hell during childhood.

That’s sort of been the story for Hyundai, who got severely ridiculed when the Excel debuted in the late 1980s, yet now find themselves seriously contending with the other top models in the industry. I’m not just talking about the Elantra and Sonata giving Toyota and Honda a run for their money; I’m talking about the new-to-the-U.S. Hyundai Equus giving Lexus, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz all they can handle.

In some ways, Delray Beach used Hyundai Genesis models served as a father to the new Equus, and in other ways it was the child of Asia’s Hyundai Centennial. However you may trace its ancestry, however, what we do know is that this car will give drivers the luxury they desire in this sort of vehicle without causing quite the sticker shock of a bigger name in the class. At only $50,000, the Equus comes in way under the large luxury sedans it’s competing with, like the BMW 7 Series, Mercedes S-Class, or the Lexus LS.

Only a few changes have shown their faces on this new Americanized version of Hyundai’s flagship vehicle; instead of a grille with bars there are now horizontal slats, and the hood ornament that seems to suggest luxury on other continents has been replaced by a shield of the same logo in the center of the grille. Other than that, it’s essentially the same car, which is really going to please a lot of drivers in Florida. Lease Hyundai Equuses by contacting North Palm Hyudai as soon as you can. Otherwise, just wait and hope that it all works out.

Hyundai has come a long way from those days of getting pushed around by the bigger brands. Few would’ve ever thought they’d be in serious competition with the most luxurious brands in the world, but that day seems finally to have arrived. It’s a success story for the ages.
