Launched in 2006, the Azera is a step up from the Sonata, and was Hyundai’s premium offering until the arrival of the Genesis in 2009.
A 2012 redesign preserved the Azera’s strengths: A spacious interior, luxurious appointments and terrific value when compared to its competitors. The 293 horsepower sedan has options like 19-inch wheels and xenon headlights, but buyers won’t feel shortchanged by a generous array of standard features including leather upholstery, heated seats all around, navigation, dual automatic temperature controls and 18-inch wheels.
