Autotrader® Names Hyundai Palisade SUV and Sonata Among Its Best New Cars for 2020

FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Mar. 26, 2020 – #Autotrader has named two all-new #Hyundai models, the #Palisade #SUV and the #sonata, among its Best New Cars for 2020. The Best New Cars for 2020 was created by #Autotrader to help car shoppers expand their horizons as they consider which new vehicle to buy. #Hyundai was the only #automotive brand to win multiple Autotrader Best New Cars for 2020 Awards.

The #Palisade #SUV was recognized by #Autotrader for “striking the perfect balance between an affordable volume car and a premium luxury car. #Hyundai has stepped up its game big time, emerging as a modern automaker delivering style, features, and value, all in one attractive package.” Further, the #Hyundai #sonata was also recognized by #Autotrader for making “a strong case as a class leader in a competitive segment. Its redesign brought with it a stunning new look, a roomy, premium interior, and a generous list of standard features, plus some interesting available tech in the higher trims.”

“Hyundai is more than proud to have two popular new vehicles, the #Palisade #SUV and #sonata, named to the #Autotrader Best New Cars for 2020,” said Scott Margason, director of Product Planning, #Hyundai Motor America. “The new #Palisade and #sonata were carefully tailored to the needs of American buyers in their respective segments and have been well-received by both top media and consumers alike. This important recognition by #Autotrader further confirms the strong appeal of these new #Hyundai models in the marketplace.”

“Our goal was to provide a helpful list of cars that offer exceptional value for their class, regardless of vehicle type or price,” said Brian Moody, executive editor for #Autotrader. “Anyone in the market for a new car really should look outside their typical go-to brands—they might be surprised what they find. It's also worth noting that out of our 12 best cars of the year, only one is from a luxury brand. That tells you just how good cars from volume brands are now in their top trims when it comes to comfort, technology and design. Every vehicle #Autotrader listed as a Best New Car for 2020 has ‘that certain something’ that makes it stand out in a very crowded field.”

Each vehicle on this year’s list was agreed upon unanimously by the entire editorial and data team at #Autotrader. To be considered, a vehicle must be of the current or next model-year and available for purchase at the time of the announcement. The editors capped the base price for consideration at $75,000 (although most vehicles on the list are well under), meaning they offer a significant value for the asking price. Not only was value a top priority, but vehicles also were judged on available technology and a rewarding or dynamic driving experience. Each winning car had to score an overall 3.9 or higher on the editors’ 5-point evaluation sheet.
