  • High-end sedan with modern look

    Hyundai has some of the most desirable and best looking sedans in its portfolio. The Sonata is one such in the premium segment with high-end cabin and best to drive, packed with a stylish and a 2.5L engine, known for its performance, it has been nicely tuned and refined. The Sonata is a big sedan but still the fuel efficient engine promises nearly 16 km of mileage. Best place to be in is the superbly spacious cabin which gets touchscreen, smart safety systems, and very quiet. Sonata is best in the city mostly but if you go on the highway, it offers you a comfortable driver.

  • Maxima is premium and luxurious

    At the slightly higher price point, Nissan offers the Maxima sedan which is good for family and business use. But I have seen the Maxima gain good popularity among wealthy families in Saudi Arabia. The reason being, the starting price of SAR 129,500, looks reasonable for a premium sedan. It promises reasonable mileage, number of safety features and relabel engine which is powerful, smooth and punchy for a car of this size. There is a sporty elements the Maxima as well with premium leather makes is comfy.
