As you may already know, engineers in Germany are working hard on the 2017 Hyundai Equus, a car that should be even better than the Genesis. Unfortunately, they've just hit a small bump on the road trip to global success, as their test prototype broke down.

It's no big deal, as engine problems are bound to happen when you're working with a brand new car. However, Hyundai engineers were not amused to see our spy photographer when they were towed the prototype back to their new test center at the Nurburgring.

You can see it on the back of the truck. There's no fire or anything like that, but the large sedan cannot return home under its own power. That could mean anything from a broken power steering system to an engine misfire.

The Equus, or whatever they decide to call this big sedan, will probably dismiss all the myths that German saloons are superior in every way. From the look of things, Hyundai has also mastered its impeccable Fluidic Sculpture 2.0 design language. Their big 4-door might shame the Audi A8.
