2008/9 Hyundai Sonata

For the refresh of the 2009 Sonata, Hyundai may have focused on dramatically improving the interior and extracting more power out of the four- and six-cylinder engines, but the exterior hasn't been neglected.

Mildly updated headlights and taillights along with a new grille and wheel options differentiate the 2009 Sonata from last year's model. Has Hyundai improved the Sonata's visual appeal? Compare photos of the 2008 and 2009 Sonatas in the gallery below.
