2007 Hyundai Azera in Asheville, NC - $6,990

Currently in its second generation, the front-wheel drive Hyundai Azera sedan will end its impressive run this year. The 2017 model year will be its last in the American marketplace. Available in Base and Limited trim levels, the Hyundai Azera sedan represents an advanced approach to the traditional premium sedan segment by delivering a powerful yet efficient powertrain, modern design, and luxury features. Azera continues to offer customers the highest levels of luxury, performance, and efficiency, all brought together in an innovative design.

Power for the Azera sedan is generated by a 3.3L V6 GDI engine. Torque is communicated to the pavement through a six-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC manual shift mode. The Azera rides on a high tensile steel unibody. Control hardware consists of a MacPherson strut front suspension, coil springs and a 24 mm diameter front stabilizer bar. The sophisticated multi-link independent rear suspension enables precise geometry for a premium ride and engaging handling prowess.

The capabilities of the advanced front and rear-suspension are maximized through Sachs Amplitude Selective Dampers (ASD), allowing tuning flexibility at smaller damper displacements. The ASD suspension provides: improved ride comfort with more body/wheel control, increased driving comfort without compromised handling, and optimized road surface contact.

Azera’s elegant look continues inside to the passenger cabin where Hyundai has created an upscale ambiance, thanks to a flow-through center fascia and instrument panel. These flowing surfaces complement the exterior design and wrap around the driver and passengers. The Hyundai sedan offers luxurious appointments that rival the finest premium competitor brands. It offers a roomy cabin with more than 45 inches of legroom and 40 inches of headroom for front-seat passengers.

Special attention has been paid to other interior details, such as an optional panoramic sunroof, which allows more natural light into the cabin and 3D Carbon interior accents. Ambient lighting compliments the vehicle’s modern appearance. The Azera offers first class seating assignments for all passengers. Leather seating surfaces are standard. A ten-way power driver and eight-way front passenger’s seats are standard equipment.
