The year 2011 has been quite rough for the auto industry. Car sales have plummeted down in the recent months due to increase in petrol prices and also rise in the interest rates. The months of November and December show a dip in car sales every year because people wait for the New Year to arrive so that they can have the 2012 registration. In this challenging time, car makers try to woo the customers by offering massive discounts on their models. Hyundai India, the country’s second largest car maker has announced big discount schemes on 4 of its models, the Santro Xing, the i10, the i20 and the Accent.

It's no secret the new 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe is coming, but now Hyundai has confirmed it will debut at the 2012 New York Auto Show in April. We've seen the spy shots, and while nothing has been confirmed, we can see the styling direction Hyundai is likely taking with the new Santa Fe. The updated crossover will sport Hyundai's

The 2012 Hyundai Elantra- Premium Korean Small Car wins Prestigious 2012 North American Car of the Year Award at the 2012 North American International Auto Show at Detroit.

Elantra Wins Best Pick out of more than 50 New cars chosen by 50 independent Automotive Journalists. Featured rides included the all New Ford Focus (we drove one and thought it was good- plenty of power, but not our Forte), and the all New Controversial US Spec VW Passat.

keep hearing everyone say that the back seat of the Hyundai Veloster is usable and that may be true, but it isn't exactly inviting. I drove the Veloster on a weekend during which my husband and I were going to a Red Wings game at Joe Louis Arena in Detroit (about a 45-minute trip). We were attending the game with another couple and had offered to drive, but when they arrived at our house we opted to take their Toyota RAV4 instead of the Veloster -- the hassle in getting two adults (one of whom is about 6'2") into and out of the back seat wasn't at all appealing.

Show, the Veloster has been attacked under the hood, under the chassis, inside and out. The Veloster’s 1.6-liter four has been boosted via a custom turbo set-up featuring a twin-scroll turbo, trick FMIC and custom exhaust system.The number we hear is 210 horsepower but that sounds conservative to us. The chassis has been sharpened via race-spec coilovers, lightweight custom control arms, beefy anti-sway bars and big brakes. Rolling stock consists of Yokohama Advan RZ Gunmetal wheels shod with Nitto NT05 tires. The most bitching mod has to be the custom widebody aero kit that includes over-fenders, front and rear fascias and rockers. Inside the usual suspects are on-call; custom interior, rollbar and custom lighting.

Hyundai's biggest seller in its home market -- the Grandeur sedan -- moves 10,000 units per month. Scale that up to U.S.-market volumes, and it rivals the million-plus annual sales Chevy and Ford full-size sedans racked up back in the '50s and '60s. But the Grandeur has been a bit player here in the U.S., where it's badged Azera. That's partly because Hyundai hasn't been trying too hard to sell the car, which is only built in Korea, because that plant has its hands full meeting domestic demand. In fact, no U.S. Azeras were built in 2010. All U.S.-bound 2011 Azeras were produced the autumn before, to make room for the new-generation 2012 Hyundai Azera, which has been flying out of dealer showrooms since September over there.

Now that its more popular North American siblings -- Sonata and Elantra -- have had sufficient time in the Fluidic Sculpture spotlight to spool their respective plants up to max capacity, the 2012 Azera arrives wearing what looks like a mashup of Sonata's swooping roofline, with the Equus' Buick-inspired rear shoulder swoosh echoed in the windowsill. Hyundai stylists claim to have been going for a "Grand Glide" theme informed by the mechanics of flight, with features reminiscent of a bald eagle, a 747, or a hang glider, soaring majestically. OK, maybe the tail lamp and instrument panel graphics have a sort of wing-y look about them--overall, it looks fresh, expensive, and unmistakably Hyundai.

Nostradamus’ words have been deemed prophetic. He became world renown when publishing collections of prophecies including this theorem: “One of the hardest things to teach a child is that the truth is more important than the consequences.” Eric Hsu, on the other hand, best sums it up with a theorem of his own.

The 2012 Hyundai Equus Ultimate is a reasonably executed flagship luxury sedan -- but should anyone care? Flagship luxury and sound financial sense just don't go together, and that's what makes the 2012 Hyundai Equus Ultimate so tough to review.

Pricewise, the $66,650 Equus Ultimate -- the more expensive of two trims -- competes with midsize luxury sedans like the Mercedes-Benz E550 and Infiniti M56, but no one is going to cross-shop those vehicles. That leaves the Equus fighting cars like the Lexus LS 460 and Mercedes-Benz S550 -- vehicles that, even in their old age, can stifle the 2012 Equus' arguments for rational luxury on a price-independent level.

Hyundai's first attempt at improving the Equus comes just one year after the model debuted in the U.S., and it receives the automaker's new 5.0-liter direct-injection V-8 producing 429 hp and 376 lb-ft of torque. The engine also is available for the Genesis sedan. It's mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission (the 2011 Equus employed a six-speed automatic and a 385-hp, 4.6-liter V-8) that sends power to the rear wheels -- there's no all-wheel-drive model.
