Hyundai representatives say they expect the positive sales momentum to continue in 2011, thanks to increasing supplies of new Elantra and a number of new models, which are slated to hit the Hyundai showroom floor this year. You can expect to see the all-new Accent and 2012 Veloster 3-door coupe hitting the U.S. soil in the first half of 2011 and the 2012 Hyundai Elantra Coupe and new Azera in the second half of the year.
