Hyundai

With a lineup of quality cars and crossovers, Hyundai is now one of the fiercest competitors in the automotive market. Where it once sold on low price, lots of standard features and a generous warranty, Hyundai has added stylish design, interior quality and refinement.

Hyundai's SUV lineup includes the Palisade three-row SUV and mid-size Santa Fe. On the other end of the spectrum are the compact Tucson, tiny Kona and even smaller Venue.

On the car front, Hyundai offers a range of models from the subcompact Accent and compact Elantra to the mid-size Sonata. Rounding out the lineup is the sporty Veloster hatchback.

The automaker has made significant strides in two areas in recent years: efficiency and luxury. It now offers three alternative-fuel models — hybrid, plug-in hybrid and fully electric — within its Ioniq line. The Sonata, Elantra and Santa Fe are also available in hybrid form. On the luxury front, the automaker has spun its Genesis nameplate into a stand-alone brand.
