February 4, 20187 yr They don't actually still make the Azera do they? The Ionic should sell better than that, it is actually pretty nice and roomy inside for the price point. I think the Kona could be a hit for them and be a good boost. The Sonata seems to be falling apart even since the bland redesign they did on it a couple years ago.
