2011 Hyundai Sonata: You've come a long way, Hyundai

摘要

IT'S FAIR TO SAY that we were surprised by the Hyundai Sonata. Granted, the previous Sonata was a competent offering, but it was not exactly a standout. With the new Sonata, however, staff members suddenly started tossing around phrases like "best-in-class." Against such stalwart competitors as the Honda Accord and the Toyota Camry- and solid challengers like the Nissan Altman, the Ford Fusion, and the Chevrolet Malibu - that was a very big claim. The best way to find out for sure whether the Sonata was deserving of such enthusiasm was to spend a year with one in a Four Seasons test.
