2010 Super Bowl TV Ads: Hyundai Sonata Commercial

[Nayef180]

Hyundai's have good performances, but lets be realistic.....Comparing a CLS with this just for the paint? There is more to a car to a paint. Still Hyundai has my respect a few years they will rival luxury brands.

[ru2k3bis]

N.Americans are so stupid. Give them something at a cheap enough price and they go gaga over it.

They don't even notice that the Korean Won has depreciated faster than the USD because they've been dazzled by cheap Korean exports.

They have no problems complaining that the Yen is manipulated eventhough its doubled in value against the USD in just over a year.

LG washer/dryer is $600 cheaper than Whirlpool's. Now they have to close down a factory. But atleast tvs and cars are still cheap.

[ru2k3bis]

There's a reason why anything Korean always has to be discounted heavily against Japanese products.

Few people know that Samsung/LG is based on hiring retired Japanese engineers at 800,000/year. China does it too. KIA needs to hire a German designer.

Why do Asians/Koreans refuse to drive Korean cars but they love Japanese ones? Hyundai/KIA/Samsung/LG are made for cheap Westerners and nothing more.

A Korean car should be as good as the Japanese car it was copied from.

Just lots of marketing $

@CoasterBeach

This is 2011, the second decade of the 21st century. You might want to reset your watch and change your wall calendar.

[stevomwa1]

i dont think for a second that Hyundai are close to MB, though are making really nice cars. But the average Joe is inclined to everything they see on TV and believe it.

[youngb1ood]

@stevomwa1 but then mercedes tore down their reputation in the years 2000-2006 due to "strategically pairing up" with daimler chrysler and help building vehicles with them. they barely won any awards if not any. and from 2006 onwards they had 2 jd power awards when they used to get some prior to 2000. they do make nice cars. its just that after the companies were conjoined.... mercedes' rep fell and bmw and audi were advancing upwards.

[stevomwa1]

@youngb1ood

true true. their merge with the Americans was a bad idea. but now look at what they are making, pieces of art they are!

[MultiCars101]

don’t get fooled I thought it world be good as well but it absolutely sucks in the snow it slips so easily I almost got into an accident!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kentau123]

[yelzhan123]

RUbbish HiVEC tranny used in every hyundai sonata really disappointing, just google it too many unsatisfied owers with sonatas transmission

[biyorkman]

HYUNDAI is KOREAN car!

[papaya888]

looks like the VW designers copied the VW's CC on this Sonata

[joe700700]

did he just say all new "Honday sonata?"

[Spanky00Cheeks]

@nraughmoobmn

South Korea just got lucky that it was in USA's favor to have SK look like a model nation, while trying to make NK look like shit.

It barely has anything to do with Korea. And if the time comes when Korea is a thorn to USA, don't doubt that they will make it their enemy and destroy the pretty thing they made.

[ConceptVBS]

So your saying Japan might get the boot if the US deems it its enemy. In global politics, anything can happen I suppose. China is gaining grown you know. And we all know what happened to the once mighty Roman empire.....

[TheAutoChannel]

Regardless of whatever political fantasy you want to imagine took place between the U.S. and South Korea, is there a doubt that North Korea is shit?

[Spanky00Cheeks]

No doubt. Jon ill and his folks are quite immoral, and have ironically made themselves into the same god-figure that the emperor of Imperial Japan was

Ironic because they hate Japan for doing what they did in WW2. And it took a lot of effort from both Western (USA) and Eastern (China, Korea, and a tad bit USSR near the end) forces to defeat Imperial Japan.

Now they model Imperial Japan in many ways

Criticism one does not mean I support the other. Neither are perfect. One less than the other.

[thefunkz]

What are you babbling about? It seems to me you're crying that Japan is faltering and Korea is gaining.

[flazy]

@TheAutoChannel very well said

[killerz1112]

the US will never push away South Korea... it is the only ally country in Asia capable of directly fighting China and North Korea... if the US decides to abandon South Korea... China's influence will take over and China will become one huge muddafucka

South Korea and the US is a friendship forever

[Spanky00Cheeks]

@killerz1112

"is a friendship forever"

Yet, as you just explained, the friendship is contingent

on political, ideological, and military applications.

If somehow things change (change evident in the rise and fall of every great empire), then the friendship is not forever, but simply strategical for the time being.

Be a bit more thoughtful and rational :D

[wlsdn0128]

@Spanky00Cheeks Wh...what ? US is 'like' a model nation ?

U that stupid ? Come on - Go To KOREA and say that... Life style between Kor and Us is whole different... US aint got life-techs . US cant live without Samsung or LG and also Sony... All East Asian countries feed u guys... Get the facts... US is still want old-fashioned shit... and still looks like old...

[krayziazndragon]

cept Hyundai was the one that adopted KIA when they went bankrupt... with most of their models being on par with each other today :D

[4u2nvism]

honda has acura...toyota has lexus and...kia has hyundai..therefore soon enough, kia will be competing with toyota and honda and hyundai will be competing with acura and lexus....

[qoohkLive7]

no it's Hyundai has kia

+ kia now have connection with Audi and VW,'s designer

Audi linked with VW

and Nissan has infiniti

[wbaskin]

2009 North American Car of the year?..Hyundai Genesis baby! Unbelievable ride, quality, and...speed! 0-60 in 5.4-5.6 sec. Outperforms BMW and Lexus in same class. Wow.

[kortag]

3 hyundai elentra's in a row...since 93'. i have owned nothing else since. great car!

[pmihsdjm]

People still think this car is cheap and not reliable because they have not had a chacne to drive this vehicle.

People have no idea how hyundai has been well-developed..

[drandydds]

Once in a while you hear some morons say, "Yeah but it's a Hyundai". They forget that made in Japan used to be considered junk back in the days. Korean electronic company such as Samsung now surpassed Sony as global consumer electronic leader. World's tallest building in Dubai along wth other top 2 tallest building in the world was constructed by Korean engineering company. Korean products are no longer low quality junk. They are giving the Japanese a run for their money.

[1bentley4ever]

@drandydds Not to mention the fact that South Korea is the leader in shipbuilding and heavy engineering. japanese tech is looking a bit stale compared to Korean nowadays. Taiwanese are also getting there.

[f1947]

Geeeee... i heard this new sonata's quality n performance is better than toyota camry.. even design is way better than competitors like camry or accord... two thumbs up!!! especially, the metal grill is so cool!!!

[zeo99]

better paint than a CLS 550 ... wow ...

[4u2nvism]

its true i own a 2009 sonata, same paint process, even battling this harsh weather with all this snow and salt, when i park my car i notice my car looks like it just came out of this highest level carwash

[OneOfaKind949]

Hyundai is not your 10 years ago cheap car anymore... I would say they are in the same class as Honda and Toyota now...

[steve9509]

You mean Honda and Ford, Toyota wont be worth anything soon.

[stefanadrian78]

@OneOfaKind949 Not quite! Maybe Kia or Renault.

[juanpablofx]

oh that car is smexy! Love the new grill and lines.

[Rorycarguy]

really wow !!! cool! id love that car if it had a more subtle grill!!! and bigger wheels , ah i can get some after market
