Remember in high school when you and your classmates were given those senior superlatives that named which of your classmates was the most likely to succeed, which had the best hair, or which couple was most likely to get married? Well, in a lot of ways automobiles get those same types of superlatives from respected publications like Kelley Blue Book, and the Hyundai brand has proven to be especially adept at earning these accolades this past year, as both the new Hyundai Sonata and the Hyundai brand as a whole recently were singled out for being so decorated.


More specifically, the Hyundai Sonata was named one of the "10 Most Awarded Cars of 2017" because of its appearance on so many KBB.com lists, including lists like "10 Most Comfortable Cars Under $30,000" and "10 Best Sedans Under $25,000," among others.


"Even in one of the industry’s most competitive classes, the Hyundai Sonata continues to distinguish itself with dynamic style and luxury features at a best-in-class value," said Brandon Ramirez, senior group manager, product planning, Hyundai Motor America. "We strive to provide our customers with 'better' and Hyundai Sonata delivers on this commitment by innovating and exciting drivers with each new release and customers are seeing that today as the 2018 Hyundai Sonata is entering dealerships."


The Hyundai brand, meanwhile, was named one of the "10 Most Awarded Brands of 2017," because the Hyundai Sonata and several other Hyundai models appear so often on the superlative lists that KBB.com cranks out each month.


While the KBB.com honors don't come with any cash prizes or huge trophies, we love the recognition anyway. If nothing else, they give our customers justification for buying some of the most often-awarded vehicles in the industry at their Elizabeth City, NC car dealership.
