What’s old is new at Hyundai as after giving the Pony a modern-day electric revival for a one-off concept earlier this year, it has done the same for the Grandeur<\/a>. The first-generation sedan has been brought back as a stunning EV part of the Heritage Series celebrating the company’s past. An official premiere took place earlier this month and now the gorgeous flagship stars in a walkaround video shot at home in South Korea.<\/p>\n

The pixel LED light motif of the Pony concept and Ioniq 5<\/a> has been adopted by the Grandeur and you can see it not just for the headlights and taillights, but also on the sides for the turn signals. The little squares have been embedded into the sides of the front bumper as well as in the shiny side caps containing the rearview cameras. Despite being modernized, it’s still a faithful interpretation of the original sedan launched all the way back in 1986 as a rebadged Mitsubishi Debonair.<\/p>\n

Even the wheel design takes after the classic sedan, but with a big shield-like cover mimicking the aerodynamic wheels that are becoming more popular on electric cars to boost efficiency. The Grandeur Heritage Series electric concept has retained the quarter glass of its source of inspiration and the overall boxy body shape in a superb m\u00e9lange of old and new.<\/p>\n
