Spy Shots: Hyundai Veloster Speeds Across The Snow
Our spy photographer just sent us these images of the Hyundai Veloster in winter testing. With a directed-injected 1.6-liter four giving 140 horsepower to the front wheels, a more powerful version could follow, possibly with a dual-clutch transmission.
2010 Chicago Auto Show Wrap-Up
We just finished up our coverage of the 2010 Chicago Auto Show, and we saw a lot of new and concept cars, some fantastic, some milquetoast. Here, all in one place, is the list and links for our Chicago coverage.
Chicago 2010: 2011 Hyundai Azera Grabs Our Attention… Briefly
No, the Hyundai Azera isn’t the sexiest or most important car at this year’s Chicago Auto Show, but we don’t mind. It still looks like a very competent entry-level luxury sedan, and if it drives anything like the current Azera, it’ll be relatively uninspired, but still rather good.
First Look: 2011 Hyundai Azera Is More Of The Same
With all of the hype surrounding the Hyundai Genesis and the all-new 2011 Sonata, it’s easy to forget that the relatively well-received Azera is still sitting on dealer lots. And while we’re still waiting for an all-new model to come forth, the Toyota Avalon of Hyundais does get a few improvements for the 2011 model year.
Spy Shots: Hyundai MPV In The Works

Geneva Preview: Kia To Show Sexy New 2011 Sportage
Just as the first few 2010 Hyundai Tucsons are just now rolling off of assembly lines, we now have some official details and images about its sister car, the Kia Sportage. First and foremost, the 2011 Sportage (which will debut next month at the Geneva Motor Show) looks substantially better than the outgoing model, with lines more apt of a crossover rather than a small SUV.
List: Top Ten Performance Bargains
In this list, we detail ten cars that really get you the most bang for your buck. Some of these aren’t the most wallet-friendly of cars, but when it comes down to what class they compete in, you’d be hard pressed to find something just as good for the same price.
Hyundai Prices 2011 Sonata From $19,195
The new, rakish Hyundai Sonata is only a few weeks away from its on-sale date, poised to take on the Ford Fusion, Toyota Camry, and other midsize favorites. And like many other cars in the Hyundai stable, the 2011 Sonata’s low price point is its most attractive selling feature — only $19,195 to start for the GLS model with a six-speed manual transmission.
Spy Shots: The New Hyundai Elantra Takes To The Road
This second batch of Hyundai Elantra spy shots just came through, and they show the vehicle actually testing on the road. They give us a better look at that low-slung roofline.

First Look: 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe Gets More Power, Better Fuel Economy
Hyundai’s Santa Fe crossover is only due for its mid-cycle refresh this year, but that doesn’t just mean touch-ups to the front six inches and rear six inches of the vehicle. Instead, Hyundai is making good on its promise to increase fuel efficiency across its lineup, and the Santa Fe will receive two new engines for the 2010 model year, as well as some other interior upgrades.
Detroit 2010: Hyundai Blue-Will Concept Takes The Stage

Hyundai Debuts Blue-Will Plug-In Hybrid Concept Ahead Of Detroit Auto Show Reveal
Under the bright lights of the Detroit Auto Show (which is only one week away), Hyundai will be unveiling its first ever plug-in hybrid, the Blue-Will. And while the show car is only a concept at this point, it showcases the future technologies that Hyundai could implement into its full lineup, such as roof-mounted solar cells, lithium polymer batteries, touch-screen controls, and drive-by-wire steering.
Driven: 2010 Hyundai Tucson
The canyon roads in and around Beverly Hills, California, provide some of the best driving scenarios in the country. Long stretches of tight corners mixed in with rapid elevation changes make for a challenging and fun day of motoring, and give us the ability to really wring out our vehicle of choice—immediately pointing out any flaws in suspension tuning, balance, power delivery, shift fluidity, and overall grace. You really want a Lotus Elise for times like this. You can imagine our surprise when Hyundai chose these roads as the testing grounds for the all-new 2010 Tucson crossover.
2012 Kia Forte Koup May Get Turbocharged

Hyundai CEO Details New Product, Powertrain Plans
We’re out in Beverly Hills, California, for our first drive of the 2010 Hyundai Tucson (stay tuned for our full review), but during this morning’s press conference, Hyundai’s CEO, John Krafcik, detailed some information about upcoming product plans for the 2010 and 2011 calendar years.
First Look: 2010 Hyundai Tucson
The previous-generation Tucson, while trusty and capable, looked rather odd and never really separated itself from the more popular Kia Sportage that it shared (everything) with. This all changes for 2010, though. The new Tucson is more powerful, more economical, and much more appealing on the eyes.
First Look: 2011 Hyundai Sonata
Hyundai is really on a roll. The automaker is really setting itself up to become one of the leaders in refinement, economy, and value in many segments. And while the Sonata has always been a fair player in this area of the automotive marketplace, it enters a whole new world of technology, design, and overall refinement for the 2011 model year.
