Amid tougher business conditions and fiercer competition, Hyundai Motor is continuously striving to provide products and services with solid fundamentals.

The Grandeur is updated with the company's 2.2-liter R diesel engine used on other large Hyundais like the Santa Fe. It features a VGT and meets Euro VI emission standards. The 2.2L engine delivers 202 PS and 45 kgm of torque.

The engine outputs 190 PS and 24.6 kgm and the steering system has been improved for better responsiveness and stability.
