Well-tailored and well-assembled Hyundai Grandeur is not inferior to Japanese and European competitors. In terms of its size, it is very solid. The salon is spacious, well isolated from noise, and in the finish you will not find cheap materials: real leather, real wood.

There are even attributes of the “premium” business class – the Infinity audio system with a regular subwoofer and the sunscreen of the rear window with electric drive, which automatically drops when the rear gear is turned on.

The front seats are equipped with electrical adjustments with memory, the steering wheel is adjustable in two planes. The climate system is good only from the point of view of front passengers and is not balanced - second-row heating in cold weather is not efficient enough. There are minor design flaws: the trunk lid on individual cars does not have ... a handle for closing, in rainy weather, water from the open lid drains into the cargo compartment; the right leash of the wiper can not be raised for cleaning with the hood closed ...

On the go, the Grandeur offers decent smoothness and acceptable stability at high speeds. This is achieved due to the long wheelbase, large mass and special suspension settings (rear - thruster).

Clearance of 16.2 cm allows you not to be too afraid of roads with broken surfaces. In addition, you can find a version with more comfortable pneumatic suspension racks. The clarity of reactions in all models is mediocre. Dynamic and braking characteristics are focused on the imposing manner of movement.

Engines

In our country, almost unknown modification with a 2.2-liter 150-horsepower turbodiesel. You will have to choose between V-shaped six-cylinder gasoline engines with a volume of 2.7 and 3.3 liters, which develop respectively 192 and 235 hp.

The younger engine is frankly weak for the heavy Hyundai Grandeur, and for a confident ride it must be constantly kept in the zone of medium and high revs. 3.3-liter unit easier provides fast acceleration and overtaking. Both engines cannot boast high fuel efficiency.

Transmission

The gearbox was only one – an adaptive five-speed “automatic” with the possibility of manual selection of gears. It has a high smoothness of switching than resembles a variator. However, compared to competitors, this automatic transmission lacks another, higher gear, which also does not have the best effect on fuel consumption when driving on the highway at high speeds.

Typical problems and malfunctions

Hyundai Grandeur cars are infrequent guests on services, but still not without some drawbacks. The engines will easily last to run under 250.000-300.000 km, but the ignition system "Grandeur" is very sensitive to fuel quality. According to the regulations, candles should be replaced after 90,000 km of run, but from our fuel they fail every 20,000-30 000 km. One platinum candle costs 450-500 rubles. Add to this the cost of replacement work – 2.500-3.500 rubles, depending on the model of the engine. Another possible failure is the failure of the throttle unit, which is contaminated by oil and other particles from the crankcase ventilation system. The main sign of such a malfunction is the unstable operation of the engine and the illumination of the “ESP OFF” and “Check Engine” indicators on the instrument panel. In some cases, the car ceases to respond to the gas pedal and does not gain speeds above 15 km / h. In such cases, only the replacement of the node helps (18.000-20.000 rubles). The suspension will make itself known only after 80.000-100.000 km of run. Consistently require replacement of the sleeve, Silent blocks, levers and ball supports. However, the most expensive will be the failure (about 110,000-120 000 km) of pneumatic racks. You will have to pay about 25.000-30.000 rubles apiece. While racks on cars with conventional suspension cost 5,000-7.000 rubles. Replace expensive racks cheap can be, but the on-board computer at the same time “go crazy”, issuing constant reports of malfunction and blocking the operation of other systems of the car. 50,000-60.
