Hyundai Sonata
The Hyundai Sonata adds some attitude to the family-sedan segment that we hope is loud enough to wake up the others. Its mid-cycle refresh comes in the form of updated front and rear bumpers, new headlights and taillights, as well as big changes for the inside. While the Sonata retains its current powertrains, consisting of a 191-hp 2.5-liter four-cylinder, a 180-hp turbocharged four, and an N Line model with a 290-hp turbo four, all-wheel drive joins the options list for cars with the 2.5-liter four.
