New wheels are on with Continental Extreme Contact Sports. Sorry for the bad resolution, it was a giant pic that I had to shrink down a bit.

I've had my car for 15 monthes and have put about 17K on it. I've made a trip to the Dragon last year, 1 trip to the D and 2 trips to the Grand Rapids area and ofcoarse DD duty. In that time I've had ZERO issues and have gotten a best of 40.5 mpg and most recently I netted 39.7 mpg with hot weather and A/C use on a trip to Grand Rapids MI. The EPA average for HWY mpgs is 33, so it has gotten much better than that. I also made a trip to down state Illinois early May and got about 37 mpg then, lots of rain on the way back. This car has been great to me and I really like it

Surprised you don't like it but to each their own. The Sonata was getting a little "sleepy"...now look at it
As far as the Elantra, well, the people spoke on that refresh...
and while I'm biased I guess I think the 2017-18 ES are really good looking. That said I really like the nee one and can't wait to see it inperson, especially the N-line

Geeez, thats really good mileage. The best I can getis about 25-26mph if all highway in my Honda Odyssey on a long trip. The others, forget about it. They average in the teens but then again I drive like a teenager, lol. Car is looking good Klasse. Love the blue and the rims.

Well your talking about a van compared to a car, much more weight and bigger engine, no harm, no foul. My gas mileage is figured out on my Fuelly app, not using what the computer says, besides, it's always a little optimistic
Thanks about the color and rims, do you notice the Hyundai logo there

What don't you like about the rearendsnot a fan of the current exterior (mainly the rear end of the vehicles) designs of the Genesis line-up, but this GV70 (in this color) looks terrific...

i'm not too fond of the flat back end from the top of the trunk down on the 2022.
i prefer the 2021 below and think it looks better overall. same with the G80 and a few other models...
it isn't just Genesis, many other cars/vehicles have a similar look in the rear and that can make or break it for me...

I really like where Genesis is going with some of their designs. I saw a GV80 the other day for the first time and it was stunning. The GV70 looks great too, though I'm not a fan of the texture on those wheels.
Despite a family member with a G90, I've never been a fan of the design in that car, but the new G80 and the G70 are quite nice.
The features and build quality of the entire line-up make them a screaming deal these days and well worth a look for those who aren't badge snobs.

I've been a long time Genesis fan, I've owned 4 of them before they became a separate brand, but this new design with the massive grills and tiny headlight stripes, the fake vent on the front fender look, and the rear ends are ehh. I like a car with curves and a fat behind, these are flat and over designed. They definitely stand out on the road, but not my cup of tea. The GV70 and G70 look much nicer than their big brothers though. The new G80 is horrible.i'm not too fond of the flat back end from the top of the trunk down on the 2022.

The Santa Cruz is really cool, hope its competitively priced
I watched Redline Review of it and I really like it and I'm not even a person who looks at utility vehicles. They have a full line up that keeps getting better
