Underneath the aggressiveness of the Equus is found a Genesis, providing both potency and pleasurable experience. The Equus is a rear-wheel drive vehicle that will come with the 4.6-liter V8 powerhouse by Genesis that comes with Hyundai's very own 8-speed automatic gearbox.

Subsequently, this engine will be substituted by a 5.0-liter V8 equipped with direct injection and cylinder deactivation and can generate a potency of up to 420 hp. Furthermore, there are some speculations that it will also probably be optionally joined by a 5.5-liter supercharged unit.
