All-new Hyundai Mistranslating: new sedan for China
Last Updated:
Hyundai will be introducing yet another sedan for the Chinese market. The new Mistra.
Which seems quite conservative. Almost looking like a small Genesis G90 from some angles. With rear lights a little bit similar to the current Sonata and a grille from the previous one.
Interestingly enough, they will also introduce a full-electric version of the car (bottom pic)
You may recall Vince that you originally thought this was the next Elantra back in early 2019: https://www.burlappcar.com/2019/01/202021-hyundai-elantra.html
Quite conservative, but still looks more modern than the 2022 Civic. I actually like it more than the new Elantra.
Why does this look like they reskinned a 2006 Sonata?
It's actually the Second Generation, of a car which looked before more like a smalled down Sonata, so it's not all new, but nice cover, specially fond into the wordplay, I really like what you did with "Mistra" as Mistranslating, as a reference as from chinese we don't know always the exact translation …
They need to get that front end on the catfish faced Sonata.
Why does this look like they slapped Hyundai front and rear ends onto a 2003 Ford Fusion?
Clever but the Ford Fusion wasn’t sold until model year 2006.
