Earlier this week Hyundai teased us with a teaser image of what was said to be an upcoming large-luxury sedan from the Korean automaker. We now have more details along with this spy video from Auto Motor und Sport.

Hyundai executives have confirmed that the car you see in the video below (check it out after the jump) is indeed a companion model to the Hyundai Genesis that will compete with the like of the BMW 7-Series and the Mercedes-Benz S-Class. Known internally as the ‘VG’ the car is expected carry Hyundai’s Eqqus badge when it hits the markets.

Power will come from the 2009 Hyundai Genesis powertrain lineup including the 290-hp 3.6L V6 and the 375-hp Tau 4.6L V8. Pricing details have not been revealed as of yet but the car will arrive in 2009 as a 2010 model.
