Hyundai Stopped the Production of Sonata for India

In the year of 2001, Hyundai launched its Sonata luxury sedan that got an overwhelming response from the Indian customers with aggressive visual perspective and alluring cabin. Some years later, the manufacturer again introduced the facelift model, but this time, its demand was decreased as compared to the outgoing one due to an unsophisticated outlook. However, the updated version was also available with diesel and in spite of this, the people had not shown a noteworthy interest in it.
