Hyundai elantra
To my knowledge, no publication had ever conducted a long-term test on a Hyundai so I decided that the time had come to test the Korean automaker’s mettle. When our silver Elantra GLS sedan arrived, I gave the team this instruction: Beat on this car has hard as possible each and every time you drive it
Hyundai sonata
New generation of Hyundai Sonata is finally showing itself in its full glory as the company unveils it in Korean domestic market. The new Sonata, apart from its name, does not share a single line with the outgoing model! It comes with a totally new design which according to Hyundai is called the ‘fluidic sculpture’ design philosophy’.Considering the class of Sonata this new design is actually rather surprising. This new sleek and smooth shape remind us of Lexus somehow. “The Sonata will set a new standard for world class mid-size sedans with state-of-the-art technology, superior build quality and emotional design,” Euisun Chung, Hyundai’s Vice Chairman said at the launching ceremony for the car today in Seoul. “The new Sonata will raise Hyundai’s brand values.” Still, it doesn’t have the finesse of European sedans.In Korea the new Sonata will launch with a 2-liter Theta II MPi gasoline engine developing 165 hp. It can also be had with a 2.4 liter Theta II GDI engine, which powers the entry level model for the US market. All models are now available with a new six-speed automatic transmission.For extra rigidity and safety, most of body panels in the new car are made of steel. Also it has six airbags, Vehicle Dynamic Control including Hill-start Assist Control and Brake Assist System as standard.The price of new 2011 Hyundai Sonata when it goes on sale in US in January 2010 will be between US$17,600 to US$21,450, depending on options. So despite all the improvements inside and out, the Sonata still has its real winning card which is affordability.

The 2011 Hyundai Equus to prove that a Lexus LS 460 in the scene by offering the best value proposition in the luxury flagship segment. We want to see how Hyundai's new range-topping model stand to-day hard day American life, and so we just added one to the Autoblog Garage Long Term.
Yes, this is a Hyundai that has an MSRP—not including a $900 freight charge—of $64,500. Yes, you read “Hyundai” and “$64,500” in the same sentence. People can quibble all day as to whether that should be the case, but as someone likes to say to me with an unassailable logic, “It is what it is.”
The things that quite luxurious for rear seat passengers, as features such as lying down power and massage functions have been added, and the rear entertainment system, refrigerator, power headrests and illuminated vanity mirrors. And yes, our car did have a lie right rear passenger seat. Check out the full list of our cars on the Monroney equipment.

There is are additional goodies for those who opt for the Equus Ultimate (there are two trim levels: Signature for $58,000 and Ultimate for $64,500), of which only two are of interest to anyone but the rear-seat occupants: the forward-view cornering camera (this, presumably, helps when trying to edge out onto a perpendicular street in that there is an image on the navigation screen of the front view with a bit on either side) and the power trunk lid (what can be said?). The other items include a rear entertainment system and increased luxuriation of the rear seats (yes, I just made that word up, but there is no other word for it: what happens when you pile lux on lux?).

Who would have imagined a few years ago that there would be so much interest in the new generation of Hyundai Sonata that it would really be justified for us to. But times change, GM's entry and exit from bankruptcy protection, the Fiat Group to acquire Chrysler, and surprise, the Hyundai Group to overtake Ford in the first half of this year to become the world's fourth largest car maker. So there you have it. But let's wind it back again to the Sonata. After the leakage of more than retribution New Orleans, the Korean maker formally introduced the four-door sedan in the home market today.
"The Sonata will set a new standard for world class mid-size sedans with state-of-the-art technology, superior build quality and emotional design," said Euisun Chung, Hyundai's Vice Chairman at the launching ceremony for the car in Seoul. "The new Sonata will raise Hyundai's brand values."
It might not be an Alfa Romeo, but compared to its dull and unimaginative predecessors, we'd say that the sixth-generation Sonata makes a huge step (call that a leap) forward in terms of design. Some will even claim that it clearly adopts styling cues from the so-called four-door coupe segment such as the swooping roofline and the stubby rear end, and they're probably right.
The Sonata also boasts a fresh interior with a contemporary styling that's in line with the Korean firm's latest products such as the new Tucson / ix35 SUV that was revealed at this week's Frankfurt Motor Show.

Size-wise the Sonata is 4,820mm long, 1,835mm wide and 1,470mm tall with a wheelbase of 2,795mm making it a little longer and wider but slightly lower than the outgoing model.
The Sonata, which may be sold under a different name in some regions (e.g. i40 in Europe), will be offered at launch in its home market with a 2.0-liter Theta II MPi gasoline engine with 165HP and an LPG version that makes 144HP. Both engines are paired to a new six-speed automatic transmission.
Hyundai said that it plans to add 2.4 liter Theta II GDI gasoline engine to the range in January next year. This engine will be offered as standard on the U.S. market model.

Hyundai said that it began developing the new Sonata in 2005 under the codename YF with the project costing a total of 450 billion won (US$ 372 million) to go from concept to production.
The company plans to sell 60,000 units of the new Sonata in Korea this year. With the addition of production in its U.S. plant in Alabama plant in early 2010 and in China the following year, Hyundai expects that number to raise to 450,000 units annually worldwide from 2011.
In South Korea, the new Sonata's prices range from 21.3 million Won to 25.95 million Won (US$17,600 to US$21,450).

We have some information, picture, feature and detail price about 2010 Hyundai Elantra : The 2010 Hyundai Elantra style changes which are few and limited to the sedan model. It gets slightly revised grille and a chrome trim slash on the trunklid.
Trim as it May look from the outside, the Hyundai Elantra offers the most interior space (cargo & passenger) Among the core competitive set and the most interior volume in its class - 112 .1 cubic feet. It's so spacious, in fact, that the government classifies it as a midsize car, though it measures (and is price approach) like a compact.
Yet numbers, as They usually do, only tell part of the story. What truly sets apart the versatile Elantra is the utter versatility of its space, and the thoughtful little conveniences That help make the interior less like a car cabin and more like a living room.

For storage, no Less than ten easy-to-reach compartments have been placed Throughout the interior. These include an in-dash storage box, a center console, front door map pockets, and dual seatback pockets, the which we've seen Used for snacks, laptops, and the outfield's worth of baseball gloves.
Hyundai Image-conscious is asserted that the Touring five-door hatchback. But it should not be ashamed to admit Touring is a four-door wagon – and a very roomy at the time: its 65.3-cubic-foot cargo volume with rear seats folded embarrassed many middle wagons and compact SUVs matches. da few styling differences between the three 2010 Hyundai Elantra sedan model: Blue, GLS and SE. Body Blue edition does not get some “blue” coats of arms and SE can be identified with alloy wheels 15-inch wheels versus other models of steel with wheel covers. The 2010 new model Elantra GLS Touring labeled. The carryover 2010 SE Touring model has 17-inch alloy wheels, roof rails plus an optional cargo on GLS Touring.
Hyundai said the Elantra sedan in 2010 Blue increase fuel economy by 8 percent in the city and 6 percent on the highway than the Elantra sedan 2009 Blue manual transmission without treatment. 2010 Elantra GLS and SE sedan comes only with four-speed automatic transmission, but the key advantage revised-up torque converter to maximize fuel economy at highway speeds.
The 2010 Hyundai Elantra GLS sedan has a base price of $ 17.615. The 2010 base price Hyundai Elantra SE sedan is $ 18,565.

Hyundai introduced its all-new 2011 Hyundai Sonata at the 2009 Los Angeles Auto Show. This marked the North American debut of the latest version of the popular midsize sedan, introducing Hyundai's "Fluidic Sculpture" design language and an all four-cylinder engine lineup to the U.S. market. Hyundai Sonata is the second vehicle in Hyundai's 24/7 version 2.0 product initiative (seven new models in the next 24 months) following on the heels of the all-new Tucson. Production of Hyundai Sonata will begin in December 2009 at Hyundai's U.S. plant in Alabama with retail sales beginning in January 2010.
2011 Hyundai Sonata Midsize Sports Sedan
The new Sonata will launch with Hyundai's new Theta II GDI 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine with a Gasoline Direct-Injection (GDI) fuel delivery system, which contributes to improved fuel efficiency and lower emissions. Hyundai Sonata is the first midsize sedan to adopt GDI technology as standard equipment in a naturally aspirated powertain. This shorter, more direct path of fuel delivery, allows for greater control of the fuel mixture at the optimum moment, thus improving efficiency. The fuel is injected by a camshaft-driven, high pressure pump that operates at pressures up to 2,175 psi. Direct injection also utilizes a higher than normal 11.3:1 compression ratio for increased power. The pistons are "dished" to increase combustion efficiency in the cylinder. This powerplant will deliver best-in-class fuel economy, best-in-class four-cylinder horsepower and best-in-class torque.
The Sonata 2.0T, as the car is officially named, is powered by a new 2.0-liter Theta II twin-scroll turbocharged gasoline direct-injection (GDI) engine that produces 274 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 269 lb-ft of torque from 1800-4500 rpm with regular fuel. The engine is linked to a six-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC manual control that drives the front wheels. No performance figures were released but Hyundai did announce that the Sonata 2.0T will deliver an estimated 22 mpg (10.7lt/100km) city and 34 mpg (6.9lt/100km) highway.
The 2.0-liter twin-scroll turbo engine will be available on the Sonata SE and Limited trim level, with the Limited getting additional upgrades, including a panoramic sunroof, 18-inch "hyper" silver alloy wheels, dual exhaust system and steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters.
Next year, Hyundai will add a 2.0-liter Theta II turbocharged GDI four-cylinder engine and a 2.4-liter Hybrid Blue Drive model featuring Hyundai's breakthrough lithium polymer battery pack. Details about these powertrains will be announced at the 2010 New York Auto Show. Hyundai Sonata's innovative segment first powertrain lineup is a key driver of Hyundai's goal to be the most fuel-efficient automaker on the planet.
Hyundai's commitment to making the Hyundai Sonata extremely fuel efficient continues with a six-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC manual control or a standard six-speed manual transaxle. Hyundai's all-new six-speed automatic A6MF2 transaxle helps the company meet its goals of improving fuel efficiency and reducing emissions. Shifts are silky-smooth with an option of manual control through the SHIFTRONIC feature.
Developed over a four-year period, this new six-speed automatic is 26.4 pounds lighter than the five-speed it replaces. It also is 1.6 inches shorter and considerably simpler, having 62 fewer parts, which is a key to increased durability, lighter weight and lower cost. When it comes to transmissions, more gears are definitely better. The addition of a sixth gear enables closer spacing between gear ratios providing a better balance of performance and fuel economy while the wide overall gear ratio helps deliver strong acceleration.
All Sonatas have column-mounted, motor-driven electric power steering that adjusts instantly to changing driving conditions while improving fuel economy over a conventional steering system. A quick-ratio steering rack is used for crisp feel on turn-in. Hyundai Sonata's turning diameter of 35.8 feet is better than Camry, Accord, Altima, Fusion and Malibu.
One of the program targets for the 2011 Sonata engineering team was world-class power-to-weight ratio. Power-to-weight ratio pays dividends in both performance and fuel economy. Hyundai Sonata is rich in ultra-high-strength steel, leading to world-class body rigidity. The 2011 Hyundai Sonata is 25 percent stiffer in torsion and 19 percent stiffer in bending rigidity than its predecessor, yet it is lighter than many midsize sedans, also offering more interior room.
The 2011 Sonata is a smart combination of superior styling, performance, safety and fuel efficiency. What’s more, it’s an affordable midsize car, putting a luxurious and rewarding driving experience within reach of many. Make the 2011 Sonata a part of your future.
