It looks like some test cars from Hyundai, complete with MI license plates (even though these shots were taken in a waterless wasteland) were caught in both a coupe and 4-door sedan variants. World Car Fan’s spy photographers caught the ‘facelifted’ 2011 – 2012 Genesis undergoing testing in the Mojave desert.

It’s already apparent that Hyundai wants to bring a little Equus flagship styling into every car launching within the next few years. An upgraded bumper and fog light set-up are in line with the European styling, while the rear end contains an entirely new LED design taillight, integrated exhaust, and rear bumper.

We hope WCF is right with their guess: “Engine options will likely carry over, meaning we can expect a 290 hp 3.8-liter V6 and a 368 hp 4.6-liter V8. Eventually the Genesis may be offered with a new 5.0-liter V8 with over 400 hp, but nothing is official as of yet.”

According to Kicking Tires: “Today, Hyundai announced it will bring its global flagship sedan to the United States. Named “Equus” in other markets, the sedan is 7.2 inches longer than the Genesis sedan, which went on sale last year. It’s built on the same platform as the Genesis and will likely only be sold with the V-8 engine that tops the Genesis lineup. The Genesis tops out at $42,050, so the Equus will slot above that…Some say the U.S. Equus could be priced in the $50,000 range.” Expect a sales date sometime in late 2010.
