Rendered Speculation: Next Gen Hyundai Sonata

[cire]

I know this is just an artist's rendering, but every other mainstream midsize sedan maker needs to watch their back if the next gen Hyundai Sonata turns out to look anything similar to these renderings. A Hyundai midsize sedan that looks like this would surely steal sales away from the Camry/Accord/Altima segment mainstays. I would possibly consider buying one if it turns out to look like this (and I am definitely not a big Hyundai fan).

P.S. The accompanying article is from December. For some reason, I didn't see these renderings until today. If these renderings are old news, then I apologize.

Looks pretty handsome, but too clean and restrained for Hyundai's recent designs.

Well the Genesis Coupe certainly didn't turn out anything like renderings that popped up prior to its release, so I wouldn't put much stock in these. These almost look to good to be renderings though, almost like someone took a Mercedes PR shot and photoshopped it.

I agree. Most of the time renderings don't truly represent the real look of the actual production vehicle (if at all), but these renderings look quite a bit similar to the overall shape of the car in the spy shots in the link below. Of course, the details could turn out quite a bit different from the renderings.

The front is very Solara/ES-like, but the design is much more sharp and taut; I like it. I'll be pleasantly (dreadfully?) surprised if that's what it looks like under all that camo.
