<br /> In its current form, the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/hyundai/">Hyundai</a> <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/azera">Azera</a> (known as the Grandeur outside the U.S.) has been around since 2005, and despite the new <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/sonata">Sonata</a>'s push upmarket, Hyundai apparently still sees the need for another model to slot in between its new Camcord competitor and the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/genesis+sedan">Genesis Sedan</a>.<br /> <br /> Although a <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/12/17/visions-of-grandeur-refreshed-hyundai-azera-on-the-horizon/">refreshed Grandeur was revealed for other markets late last year</a>, judging by these latest spy shots, Hyundai is hard at work on a more thorough makeover, complete with an even more coupe-like roofline, Sonata-inspired fascia and chrome strip extending its way atop the front fender.<br /> <br /> The four-wheel independent suspension is sure to remain, and Hyundai is likely to continue offering a choice of V6s - a 263-hp 3.8-liter or a 234-hp 3.3-liter - each mated to a six-speed automatic. We'd expect a small bump in output when the all-new Azera debuts late next year as a 2012 model.<br /> <br /> <br /> <div class="postgallery"><p><s trong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/spy-shots-2012-hyundai-azera-grandeur/low/">Spy Shots: 2012 Hyundai Azera/Grandeur</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/spy-shots-2012-hyundai-azera-grandeur/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/02/01-2012-hyundai-azera-spy-shots-feb_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/spy-shots-2012-hyundai-azera-grandeur/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/02/02-2012-hyundai-azera-spy-shots-feb_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/spy-shots-2012-hyundai-azera-grandeur/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/02/03-2012-hyundai-azera-spy-shots-feb_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/spy-shots-2012-hyundai-azera-grandeur/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/02/04-2012-hyundai-azera-spy-shots-feb_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><br />[Images: CarPix]<p style="padding:5px;backgr ound:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/02/08/spy-shots-2012-hyundai-azera-frolics-in-the-snow/">Spy Shots: 2012 Hyundai Azera frolics in the snow</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblo g</a> on Mon, 08 Feb 2010 15:32:00 EST.
