The figure is the highest number of preorders made in Korea, topping the 10,827 units set by the company’s YF Sonata 2009 model, the company said.

“Grandeur IG was designed to offer the classiness of German cars and dynamics of Italian automobiles, while retaining the heritage design of previous Grandeur models,” a Hyundai Motor official said.

The official launch of Grandeur IG is set for Nov. 15.
