Iconic Models from Hyundai

Hyundai spent a lot of time pushing the boundaries of the automotive industry, and the results are pretty clear. Over the years, the automaker created vehicles that not only performed well, but that also changed the industry at large. These iconic models became ingrained in the history of the car community when they were first introduced and continue to spark interest years later. The team here at Heritage Hyundai Towson has put together some of our favorite Hyundai vehicles throughout the years to celebrate how far the brand has come.

Sonata

Since 1989, the Hyundai Sonata has offered the experience of a premium sedan without the price tag of one. Influenced by automotive design from around the world, the Hyundai Sonata is sleek, stylish, and comfortable. Always looking to evolve, the Sonata gets better with every generation. Upgraded materials, improved aesthetics, reinforced suspension, cutting-edge technology, and greater efficiency have become trends with this sedan. 

Santa Fe XL

If you’re familiar with the Santa Fe of prior years, the XL should look like an old friend. For 2019, Hyundai has dubbed the Santa Fe Sport the new standard for the Santa Fe model, and rebranded the original Santa Fe as the Santa Fe XL. When the Santa Fe was introduced in 2000, it was an instant hit and demand for the mid-size SUV skyrocketed. Thanks to the small but powerful powertrain in the original Santa Fe, and now the Santa Fe XL, it’s the perfect choice for small families. 

Elantra

First released in 1990, the Elantra became Hyundai’s answer to cars that bring a lot of value to their owner’s without breaking the bank. Created to compete with other compact sedans, the Elantra offered great standard features, fuel economy, and safety. The Elantra remains an economical choice while still offering a wealth of standard features like a rearview camera and Bluetooth® connectivity on the base model. Higher trim levels offer premium features like a 7-inch touchscreen display, driver assistance features, and connectivity options other automakers only include on their flagship models. 

Today, Hyundai is one of the largest car manufacturers in the world and continues to create vehicles that push the industry to the next level. If you’re ready to own what is sure to become a cornerstone of automotive history, take a look at our new inventory and then reach out to our team to schedule a test drive today.
