The Hyundai Equus (Korean현대 에쿠스; RRHyundai Equus) was a full-sized, front-engine, rear-wheel-drive luxury sedan manufactured and marketed by Hyundai Motor Company from 1999 to 2016. It was produced over two generations in a four-door, five passenger configuration. The nameplate derives from the Latin equus, meaning "horse."

A second generation was released in 2009.[5] As of August 2014, it was sold in South Korea, Russia, China, United States, Canada, Central America, and South America — as well as in the Middle East under the Hyundai Centennial (현대 센테니얼) nameplate.

On November 4, 2015, Hyundai officially announced it would move the Genesis model to Hyundai's new luxury vehicle division, Genesis Motor.[6][7] The 2016 successor to the Hyundai Equus was rebranded as Genesis G90[8] (EQ900 in Korea until 2018).[2]
