Hyundai to build RWD luxury sedan

Hyundai is certainly moving and shaking. It seems like a few luxury makes may also have a little competition from Hyundai. Hyundai is developing a rear-wheel drive luxury sedan. The new model will slide above the new Azera and the non-US market Equus. The Azera should be hitting our shores soon, and is positioned above the Sonata. We caught a glimpse of the European version of the Azera at this year's Frankfurt show. The new sedan, dubbed BH, will be built using a 3.5-liter version of Hyundai's Lambda V6. A 3.3-liter version of that powerplant can be found in the redesigned Sonata. The BH was thought to be the next Equus when it was spotted during testing in the American Southwest. We have one question for Hyundai. The North American Azera is equipped with a 3.8-liter V6 that produces 263 HP, why not sure that engine in this new BH sedan?
