Hyundai Sells Over 200,000 Sonata Sedans in North America this Year, Sets New Record


The well received new Sonata is spearheading Hyundai's North American sales efforts this year, with the South Korean automaker selling more than 200,000 examples of the mid-size sedan in the U.S. and Canada in 2010, setting a new sales record. More importantly, the four-door saloon helped the company deliver more than 530,000 vehicles in the United States and over 110,000 in Canada for the first time ever.

"Sonata is the Hyundai brand and it's appropriate that it has led our best year ever.
