Image Renderings Reveal The Look Of The Next-Generation Hyundai Sonata
A couple of image renderings reveal sharper styling cues of the next-generation Hyundai Sonata mid-size sedan.
We have gotten our hands on some cool image renderings that showcase how the all-new 2015 Sonata might look like.
The artist renderings are based on the latest Sonata spy shots that have hit the world wide web a few days ago.
Those latest spy shots have showcased the new generation Sonata with almost no cladding, giving us the best preview of the upcoming Hyundai sedan.
Set to be officially unveiled at the New York Auto Show, the 2015 Sonata boasts the automaker’s Fluidic Sculpture 2.0 styling.
It features sharper styling than the model it replaces and has a more mature exterior look.
The final design may differ slightly from the one shown here at the renderings, however, we do not expect any major changes.
This is indeed the most accurate Sonata rendering to date, so kudos to the creators!
