Buying the 2012 Hyundai Equus
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2012 Hyundai Equus for sale by us right now. Buying the 2012 Hyundai Equus is a big decision; here is the information we have.
Recalls and complaints
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Owners filed 8 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, engine and suspension; have those parts checked. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
Reading the spec sheet
Its 5.0L 8-cylinder drives through an 8-speed automatic. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
Combined fuel use is 13.0 L/100 km: about 39 litres for 300 km. Every 100 km costs about $22.75 in fuel at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$4,550 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Who it is for
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Size and space
As a large sedan, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. Its 481 litres of luggage space fit a family's bags for a long weekend.
Rent it for a week first
A test week in the Equus tells you more than any review. Rent the Equus for a week and see how it fits your life. If the Equus is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.
Which one to look for
Within the 2012 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
Running costs
The EPA estimates US$4,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.
Make a request

Rent it for a week before you buy
