New Hyundai Sonata Could Get A Radical Makeover For Its Next Look: Report

Slower than expected sales growth for the US-market Hyundai Sonata is being cited as the reason why the company may be considering a radical cosmetic update for its midsize sedan, despite having only launched in the US midway through last year.
The report, published in Wards Auto, quotes Hyundai USA chief Dave Zuchowski as saying that the new Sonata's design doesn't stand out as much as that of its predecessor, and that the shape is too conservative.
As such, Zuchowski indicated that work was already underway on a facelift for the Sonata, which will arrive during the car's scheduled mid-life update sometime in 2017.
