2020 Hyundai Sonata Design

I'm certainly not a big fan of Hyundai/Kia, and not a fan of any sedan in fact. But, Toyota could learn a thing or two from Hyundai's design chief... clean, flowing lines that just make sense IMHO.

The new 2019 KIA Forte also blows away the latest Civic & new 2020 Corolla in mature/elegant styling - & the backwards new Elantra for that matter. The new 2020 Mazda3 sedan (NOT hatchback) looks really good also, even if I don't like the grill shape really.

The 2020 Sonata looks decent enough from an objective proportions/lines standpoint, but not really my thing personally when you get down to the styling details. I never like the Hyundai front ends, or non-round/non-oval exhaust tips in general. Plus, anything larger than a compact size class vehicle isn't something that I want to drive.

If you took a screenshot of an Aston Martin grille and then stretched and skewed it a bit, you'd have the 2020 Sonata grille

That is a pretty killer looking sedan. Reminds me of the audi A7 mixed with an accord and definitely get the aston vibe from the grille.
