Hyundai unveiled its newest top-end sedan, the Azera (“the era of A to Z” — For this they pay a marketing department?). It replaces the XG350, which had been aging badly of late. The new sedan gives Hyundai a proper entry in the “jellybean-shaped, leather-seated, V6-powered sedan” segment, in which 3,870 models currently exist. Still, a new 3.8-liter V6 pushing out 265 horsepower will likely make short work of Buick’s LaCrosse, which it will likely undercut in the marketplace.

I don't see any resemblance to an A4.............. the A4 is not THAT good looking! Just
kidding! Maybe from the side, like the Sonata. Any way, there is a lot lot lot more of an A4
in the new Sonata than in the Azera. Again, I don't see that much resemblance. I see a little bit
of 540 back lateral lines, and the front of an older Lexus/mazda millenia. The Back? ufffff that
is the ugly side............. too Buicki/accord like. Wakala! Style wise is not a G35 or an S Type,
but it is a beautiful car. Unfortunately lot of people base their opinions on Web pictures only.
Big mistake because the Azera is not a photogenic car. It looks zillion times better when you
see the real thing. Inside, is where the Azera shines! Not an Audi, but is in the same league of
the Toyota Avalon. High quality material, fit and finish are impecable.
This car is much much much better in all aspects than it's predecessor............................. There
is no comparison. Not just looks thousands times better than the anonymous styled and
generically bland-looking XG, but has the substance to compete w/ the best in it's class.
Something in which the XG failed really badly.
