Incredible comfort and value for money

<P>The Sonata Embera is simply a fantastic luxury sedan. It has tasteful interiors without being 'jazzy' and the interior comfort and leg room is umbelievable. It has great performance both in terms of acceleration and high speed stability. I have driven it at 180 Kmph and its smooth as silk.</P> <P>The fuel consumption is obviously on the high side - but with a 2.4 litre engine that is to be expected.</P> <P>Great engineering and styling - that's the Embera</P>Fantastic comfort and leg space; Excellent performance at high speeds. Have driven upto 180"functional" interiors - not jazzy or space age
