The award was presented to Hyundai at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit January 9, 2012. The Hyundai Genesis was named North American Car of the Year in 2009. "The Hyundai Elantra is sporty, yet sensible," wrote Jayne O'Donnell, a member of the jury and a reporter for USA Today. We couldn't agree more.
