Pulling out of the 123-story Lotte World Tower into the crush of Seoul’s morning traffic in the 2020 Hyundai Sonata, the striking symbolism isn’t lost on me. The 1,819-foot tower is new, the fifth-tallest building in the world, and the tallest in Korea. This engineering marvel symbolizes the dramatic progress Korea has made in a short time just as the eighth-generation Sonata that will land in the U.S. later this year represents the dramatic leap Korea’s largest automaker has made in the automotive industry. The 2020 Sonata isn’t just a good Korean car, it’ll...

At last year’s SEMA show, we saw Hyundai and Californian tuner Bisimoto unveil a Genesis Coupe with, wait for it, 1,000 horsepower! Well, the two have partnered up again and this time the basis for their modding is a humble 2015 Hyundai Sonata. Bisimoto specializes in extracting huge output from Hyundai engines, and this will be perfectly demonstrated by its custom Sonata which promises to deliver 708 horsepower. We’re not talking an engine swap here. Instead, Bisimoto says it has taken the Sonata’s stock 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine and enhanced almost every element while...

It's one of the most hotly anticipated new cars on display at the 2011 Detroit auto show--and maybe that's surprising, since the 40-mpg 2012 Hyundai Veloster comes from humbler beginnings than super cars like the Porsche 918, Cadillac CTS-V Coupe and BMW 650i that also are vying for attention at Cobo Center. The Veloster is on the most-wanted list for a couple of simple reasons: because it underscores Hyundai's stellar growth in the U.S., and because it follows a string of hits from the company that won North American Car of the year in 2009 with the Genesis sedan, is a finalist for the same...
