Beyond any exPeCtatIons

From the superfine suede headlining to the premium quality deep pile carpets,

the Centennial reflects an unmatched commitment to luxurious excellence.

Redefining the sumptuous

Seating is a science. Inside the Centennial

every seat is a masterpiece of design and

engineering. An interior environment with

the finest comfort and convenience is

provided from structural aesthetics

through appropriate arrangement of

genuine materials. Seat climate is

controlled by thermoelectric devices in

the seat back and cushion that regulate

the temperature and humidity, thereby

maximizing comfort and optimizing

freshness for the occupants. The rear

headrests have wing sections that can be

adjusted up to 30 degrees for passenger

comfort. The whole ambience is one of

pure, but practical, opulence.

Massage rear VIP seatPower adjustable VIP rear seat with air cell massage

system enables the Centennial to meet every

luxury criteria for the VIP passenger. The seat

both massages and vibrates - the perfect

relaxation therapy for those who

deserve it the most.

*This option is also available for driver’s seat.

Leg supportPower adjustable VIP

seat with leg support

provides extra comfort

to the passenger,

together with the

peaceful satisfaction of

being treated as a VIP.

Indulge in elegance

To enter the rear compartment of the Centennial is to step onto the summit of executive luxury. Notice how

the superfine suede trim extends from the headlining to the door pillars and the rear parcel shelf. Lean back

and enjoy the rear 8-inch display, where your favourite movie or station is waiting. The sunroof opens to give

fresh air, or to just add ambient daylight. You need to work? Just push a button for the table on the front

seatback. It features wooden surfaces for an extra touch of true sumptuousness.

Electric side curtain Too much sun or not enough privacy? Whichever, the

touch of a button raises the rear curtain.

Rear armrest switchFor the rear seat VIPs, the twist and touch system

delivers the power to control their own multimedia and

comfort zone effortlessly.

The exTraordinary

The Centennial luxury-class saloon has pure comfort and a seemingly

endless list of convenience.

Journey itself is a pleasure

The finest leather, superb sculptured comfort, power adjustment and tranquil space to relax allow the rear

passengers of the Centennial to see the world in a whole different light without any intrusive noise or road shock.

Fingertip controlled air conditioning and audio system mean that each can define their comfort zone. A generous

rear centre armrest that opens to reveal a large cool box offers easy access to refreshments for the journey.

With this level of craftsmanship, you will always be left feeling that you have reached your destination too quickly.

Lexicon sound system with Discrete Logic7 The perfect ambience demands the perfect sound system. With 608w from 13

channels and 17 speakers, the Lexicon system has been tuned to the Centennial

to deliver the highest audio performance in every part of the car.

PerfecTly Balanced driving

The symmetrical balance of dynamics and comfort. A powerful 4.6 Tau engine and rear-wheel drive

system press the tyres against the road to squeeze the most out of every grain of automotive force.

new heighTs of Power

World class in every way, the engines of the Centennial redefine

smooth, abundant power.

harnessing The Power

The Centennial's silky smooth 6-speed transmission and rear-wheel drive effortlessly

maximise the benefits of its superb power.

Masterful engine technology

With the Centennial, performance is an art form. Acclaimed as

'2009 & 2010 Ward's 10 Best Engines (USA)' for 2years in a row,

the V8 engine is a piece of refined modern sculpture with a

world class power unit. By using a sophisticated high pressure

die-casting system, the compact all-aluminium Tau V8 incorporates

variable valve timing and a variable induction system for maximum

efficiency. It is clean and lean, yet still delivers a massive 366ps

with 44.8 kg∙m torque at 3,500rpm. It redefines quiet and smooth

driving, while still delivering outstanding power and efficiency.

Aerodynamic efficiencyWind tunnel testing delivers an ultra low 0.27 Co-efficient

of drag, minimising fuel consumption and cutting wind

noise to virtually zero.

Electronically controlled air suspensionElectronic continuous damping control in real time keeps

the Centennial stable, steady and smooth, by increasing

or decreasing ride height for varying road conditions.

Precision, balance and handling

The magnificent handling, ride and road holding of the Centennial are the result of interactive

development that matches innovation to design and engineering. New chassis construction

technology and high tensile materials have increased rigidity, while reducing road noise and vibration.

The suspension is uniquely tuned to the chassis, meaning that no matter the conditions it is working

at optimum efficiency. And, of course, there is the aristocratic benefit of rear wheel drive allowing

ideal front/rear weight distribution for balanced and precise handling.

Frugal but fast

The Hyundai Lambda V6 engine has already gained admiration worldwide.

In the Centennial, it has been even further improved in its latest form. Increased

durability, reduced weight, lower noise and vibration levels and improved fuel

efficiency make it even more refined. The result is a magic carpet-like performance

delivered with 290ps and 36.5kg∙m torque at 5,300rpm.

Pre-safe seatbelt By automatically pre-tensioning in case of a possible

accident, the seatbelt keeps you in the safest position.

Knee airbagIn case of a heavy impact, the driver is further

protected by a knee airbag to prevent knee and lower

leg injuries.

Advanced airbag technology

Nine airbags mean additional safety inside the Centennial. Front side and full-length curtain airbags are

supplemented by a driver's knee airbag and side airbags for the rear seat passengers. Working together with

the pre-safe seatbelts and electronic active headrests, they provide a cocoon of maximum safety.

Advanced integrated design and engineering deliver

new levels of performance-matched safety.

Intelligence you can trust

The structure that surrounds you in the Centennial has been tested to the very highest

standards to withstand impact, but equally as important, the driving systems have been

integrated to help prevent an accident. How? We call it VSM, the Vehicle Stability

Management, which combines the Electronic Stability Program (ESP), Electronic

Parking Brake (EPB), Smart Cruise Control (SCC) and Pre-safe Seatbelts (PSB). The SCC

measures relative speed and distance to the vehicle in front through radar sensors to

control the engine and brakes in order to maintain a suitable following distance. When

the possibility of an impact is detected, a warning light and chime are activated. When

the risk is high, these are supplemented by the seatbelt shaking three times to give a

haptic warning (PSB) and the brakes are automatically set on stand by. When a collision

is impending, the seatbelt pre-tension and automatic deceleration with brake force

supplement are mobilized. All of this happens unobtrusively and automatically without

you losing any element of overall control.

Smart cruise control (SCC)Radar judges the safe distance to vehicles or obstructions ahead and can apply

necessary braking force in an emergency. Once the problem has passed, normal

cruise control resumes.
