Hyundai Azera

Posted under Hyundai

Unique in the full-size sedan vehicle class, for its roomy premium-class interior, very good performance and impressive safety features, Hyundai Azera bypasses the gap between family vehicles and luxury cars. Coming with an outstanding warranty offer and an attractive price, Hyundai Azera makes a feared competitor on the affordable large cars market segment.

According to many reviews, driving Hyundai Azera is fun and rewarding because the car is one of the best performers in its class. Limited is powered by a potent 3.8 liter V6 engine and GLS comes packed with a 3.3 liter V6, both capable of providing 265 horsepower, smooth and strong acceleration. Azera can go from standstill to 60 mph in less than 6 seconds and reach a top speed of 155 mph, its agility combined with 5-speed automatic transmission, upgraded suspension system and precise steering as well its excellent handling all received many positive reviews.

Azera’s exterior design is tasteful, classic even sophisticated some would say, but many reviews point out that the model is just not the one to stand out in the crowd; it has a pleasant well-balanced but unadventurous appearance which moreover lacks excitement and originality.

As for the interior Azera competes with upper-class rivals and its interior was created to provide opulent luxury, it is extremely spacious and trimmed with high quality materials, aesthetic faux-wood touches combined with metallic piping, and soft double-stitched leather on the Limited are only few examples, moreover it features a high-performance audio system that provides high sound quality and an enormous 16.6 ft3 trunk with a huge opening. In spite of the Hyundai’s efforts, according to many reviews, the interior doesn’t quite rise to audience’s high expectations as it can perfectly meet the needs of some drivers and at the same time make others especially the taller drivers feel rather awkward inside the cabin.

Featuring competitive safety equipment, Hyundai Azera scored well in the governmental crash tests.

With an impressive 10-years/ 100.000 miles power-train and the new vehicle 5-years/60.000 miles warranty plus 5-years of 24/7 roadside assistance Hyundai tries to state that it has increased reliability and that is able to build solid and dependable vehicles.

The Azera overall good performance comes for an attractive base price of $ 23.374.
