The 2013 Hyundai Sonata is known for being extremely competitive in its class. It has terrific fuel economy, up-to-date styling and a spacious cabin. The Hyundai Sonata will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front headroom and legroom than the Volkswagen Passat. With regard to the rear seats, both vehicles have approximately the same roominess. The Hyundai Sonata also requires fewer visits to fill up at the pump than the Volkswagen Passat, making it more convenient and less expensive to drive. Sonata customers particularly appreciate all the awesome safety equipment such as the rearview camera system, and the fact that the Hyundai Sonata has been named by the IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety) as a repeat “Top Safety Pick” in addition to achieving a “Five-Star” rating from the federal government. With its lower torque, the Volkswagen Passat doesn't transmit power to its wheels as well as the Hyundai Sonata does.

The Sonata’s value is increased by virtue of all the standard features it has which are only options on the competition! In fact, at the base level, customers get the following on the Hyundai Sonata: Bluetooth, a USB port, power accessories, a tilt/telescoping steering wheel, and cruise control. This year, heated seats were added as a standard feature to the SE model, while SE and Limited editions added parking sensors and a pushbutton start. And, as if this isn’t enough, the Hyundai Sonata’s generous basic warranty of 5 years/60,000 miles beats the Volkswagen Passat’s of 3 years/36,000 miles. To discover for yourself what a buy the Hyundai Sonata is, stop in today and take one for a test drive!

The 2013 Hyundai Sonata and the 2013 KIA Optima have so much in common because, since the early 2000s, Hyundai has owned Kia. Both vehicles are powered by four-cylinder engines with six-speed automatic or manual transmissions. Furthermore, the 2013 Hyundai Sonata and the KIA Optima share some basic steering and suspension fundamentals. Keen observers note that the interior and trunk space is quite similar in both vehicles, with lots of front-seat legroom and head room, with above-average knee room and head room in the back seat. Trunk space and small-item storage are also quite generous. The Hyundai and Optima have both been leaders for their brands and for the latest generation of family sedans. Additionally, both have earned excellent safety scores from the IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety) and NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration). Further, they both possess the same Basic Warranty 5 years/60,000 miles.

The 2013 Hyundai Sonata and the 2013 Kia Optima provide seating for five in the midsize sedan category. Each vehicle maintains its own distinctive style, and the Sonata provides slightly more passenger volume than the Optima in addition to a larger trunk and greater cargo space. Because these closely matched vehicles have many similarities, it's hard to determine which of the two – the Hyundai Sonata or the KIA Optima – is best suited for your needs. Both vehicles offer excellent value for the price, specifically with a hardy set of standard features and convincing upgrades. What it boils down to is the distinction is in the details. That’s why so many customers lean toward the Hyundai Sonata. It is clearly the more comfortable of the two as well as being best suited for families. In fact, if you are trending toward getting a new vehicle, stop on by to take the Sonata for a spin. You will never look back! Once you are behind the wheel of the Hyundai Sonata you won’t want to consider any other car.

For an impressive SUV, customers like the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe because it requires fewer stops at the gas station than the 2013 Toyota Highlander, making it much more convenient to drive. Besides being a very stylish family-friendly vehicle, there are a number of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe. The main consideration is MSRP (Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price). The Toyota Highlander is clearly the pricier vehicle compared to the Hyundai Santa Fe. And, in this current economy, most buyers like that they get a lot for less! Besides cost, another determining factor in leaning toward the Hyundai Santa Fe over the Toyota Highlander is the fact that the Hyundai Santa Fe is a little narrower than the Toyota Highlander. That translates into making the Santa Fe easier to exit and enter in a crowded parking lot at the play-offs, the mall on Black Friday, or at a rock concert. Not only that, but squeezing into a snug parking space is just that much easier in the Hyundai Santa Fe.

Furthermore, because the Toyota Highlander has a greater turning radius than the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe, it is more difficult to maneuver and navigate in and out of tight spots. Best yet, the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe has received several impressive awards which include the “2012 Total Cost of Ownership Award” from Kelley Blue Book, the “2013 ALG’s Highest Residual Value Award” and the 2012 IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety) Top Safety Pick Honors for its highest safety ratings. In the event you are searching for an impressive crossover for a fair price, you are going to want to check out the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe!

With its attractive new styling, good fuel economy and easy-to-use infotainment system, the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe isn’t hard to fall in love with! As a third-generation of the crossover, the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe is all geared up and ready to attract a new age-bracket of car-buying families. When measured against the Santa Fe, the 2013 Mazda CX-5 just doesn’t stack up quite as well. For example, there is a noticeable shortcoming in that the Mazda’s engine lacks power when you most need it. This is tied to the fact that the CX-5’s fuel economy comes at the expense of power. Consequently, there’s just not enough get-up-and-go with the 2013 Mazda to be truly competitive with the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe. Although there aren’t a lot of options available in the Hyundai Santa Fe, that’s because the Santa Fe already comes well-equipped with plenty of standard features right out of the gate! It has the cargo space you need in a crossover, in addition to the giddy-up you want on the highway. In contrast, the Mazda CX-5 is noisy when you accelerate hard; the rear quarter vision is minimal and, by today’s standards, six airbags just doesn’t cut it these days.

And, as if this all weren’t enough, the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe was awarded several impressive awards recently. Included, is Kelley Blue Book’s “2012 Total Cost of Ownership Award.” According to Juan Flores, Kelley Blue Book director of vehicle valuation, “… the Santa Fe edged out competition in nearly every ‘Total Cost of Ownership’ factor.” In addition, the Hyundai Santa Fe received the “2013 ALG’s Highest Residual Value Award” and determined that the Santa Fe is projected to retain more of its original value than any of its competitors in its class. Finally, the Hyundai Santa Fe was also one of six Hyundais awarded the 2012 IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety) Top Safety Pick Honors for highest safety ratings. Clearly, the choice is easy. If you are looking for the best buy in crossovers, look no further than the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe!
