Reviews SummaryIn creating the latest version of its Sonata, Hyundai has rigorously checked every important box on the long list of midsize family sedan requirements. What’s left out of the recipe is difficult to articulate, the sort of emotional attachment generated by sensational design, or entertaining driving dynamics, or an endless supply of surprise-and-delight details. This is a thoroughly capable car. But it is not an engaging car. | |
Reviews SummaryHas the world moved beyond the full-size family sedan? The answer might be yes. Considering that a Chevrolet Impala provides just a few inches of extra space here and a few cubic feet of additional trunk room there, but at a cost in terms of purchase price and fuel economy, it's hard to justify a big car’s existence. Yet, the Impala exists, and within its segment, it is absolutely worthy of consideration. | |
