Auto India » Hyundai Sonata Embera

The Embers was introduced in 2005, and though it was a far better on-road performer than its predecessor and also larger, it did not succeed in replicating the initial success of the model it replaced. Last year, it got a two-litre CRDi engine mated to a six-speed box. Adequate power, but one could do without the turbo lag. The interior design is very spacious and quality is good. The ride, handling, steering, braking and overall performance and build quality are a monumental improvement over the previous version.
