2012 HYUNDAI ELANTRA

Elantra

 

In the last several years, Hyundai has made the effort to become much more than just the car company that is known for a great warranty. The emphasis has been put on providing quality vehicles with excellent fuel efficiency and an even better price. Those efforts have paid off in spades, with critics and customers alike embracing the virtues of the Korean automakers. Hyundai is setting sales records each and every month, and their trophy cabinet is overflowing!

2012 HYUNDAI ELANTRA TOURING

Elantra

 

Hyundai has been batting a thousand lately, with the new Elantra Touring a five-door hatchback competing with a host of vehicles available in the sub-$20,000 range, all of which are screaming for attention from increasingly finicky buyers who demand something practical, affordable and efficient fortheir dwindling dollars. Hyundai chose to import one of its existing models from abroad rather than developing a new Elantra model from scratch. They chose the i30, designed in Germany and currently on sale in Europe, Australia and South Korea. The Elantra Touring is very much a direct port of the i30 and actually has little in common with the four-door Elantra sedan

2012 HYUNDAI AZERA

Azera

 

Officially, there’s no such thing as a 2012 Hyundai Azera. At least not yet, since the car is scheduled to make its official debut at the upcoming Los Angeles Auto Show on November 16 – 17, 2011 at the LA Convention Center. However, between now and then, Hyundai wants consumers to build their own Azera and answer a few questions about their upcoming automotive purchases. Something of a novel and creative idea, it's probably safe to presume that the 2012 Azera will take a shape very similar to the Grandeur sedan seen above. The Grandeur has design elements of both the Sonata and Genesis, keeping in line with the automaker's "fluidic styling" language. As for powertrains, Hyundai hasn't uttered a word, but the best guess is that the automaker's 333-hp 3.8-liter V6 will be found under hood, or perhaps a variant of its 274-horsepower 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four. The full details will be out later this year.

2012 HYUNDAI ACCENT

Accent

 

The Hyundai Accent is a winning formula of attractive design meeting extreme value. The fact that it drives well and gets class-leading mileage only cements it at the top of the subcompact class,” claims David Thomas of Cars.com. Expressive, distinctive styling was destined to make its way into a car of this class. Ultimately, the all-new Hyundai Accent destroys convention with the fluid lines and chiseled curves once reserved for cars costing much more. While many subcompact cars skimp on design, we have instead refined our designs to the point of modern, fluid perfection. The Fluidic Sculpture theme that positionsHyundai apart from other similar competitors extends to the all-new Accent, with its chiseled front fascia, bold rear bumper and flowing lines that you normally wouldn’t expect to see on a car like this. It's a bold look for an inexpensive car.

2012 HYUNDAI VERACRUZ

Veracruz

The 2012 Hyundai Veracruz is certainly a sight for sore eyes. It includes seating for seven and offers premium features for all! Consider these quality accessories: three-beam projector-style halogen headlights, front fog lights, 17-inch aluminum alloy wheels on GLS, 18-inch on Limited, and convenient roof rack side rails. Pretty impressive trimmings! And, you’d think – pretty expensive too. But about the only thing you won’t find on the 2012 Hyundai Veracruz is a substantial markup.
