2011 Hyundai Azera Overview, Reviews, Ratings & Specs

W & G on April 28, 2021

Great car! Solid, handles well, good gas mileage. A luxury experience. Perfect for all of our needs. Plenty of room for passengers and for hauling cargo in the trunk.

I really like this vehicle. I owned one previously and had it for about 9 years. Sadly, it was totaled in a wreck over a year ago. I would have replaced it with another Veracruz but I was able to get a good deal on a new car because a family member worked at the dealership. That said, the Veracruz performs very well and is comfortable to drive. The old one needed very little repair beyond regular maintenance. My work car (my wife drove the Veracruz for the most part) was old and needed more repairs than it was worth, so I thought about buying a truck. Then, I thought about the Veracruz and how useful it was and how nicely it drove so I looked for a used one (they are no longer made) and was very happy to find one that I am really enjoying.

This is the second Azera limited I have purchased. My First is a 2007 bought new and now has 118000 miles. I JUST PURCHASED A 2011 AZERA LIMITED WITH 12,800 MILES. i WANTED THE 3.8 LITER ENGINE WHICH THE 2011 HAS. Did not trade the 2007. It still runs and looks like new. Had traded a Cadillac for the 2007. I had previously owned 3 Cadillacs. Although they were good cars...the Azera's are by far the best built and best performing cars I have driven.. Features found on the Limited include a rear power shade (not found on any other car I know about) , the 2011 has a 6 speed transmission. Most other features can be found on other luxury models. Best performing car I have ever driven, it is especially nimble in mountain driving.

I recently purchased this car use, 2 years old with 8000mi so it is basically new. I have owned one new Sonata and one Tucson. I put only 100,000 miles on the Sonata and had only a couple of problems that were well resolved by the dealer under warranty. Although not an exciting car to drive, we were very satisfied. The Tucson was purchased used with 8000 miles because I wanted to try a SUV type vehicle. Overall we were satisfied but road noise intrusion was terrible and I disposed of it with only 33000 mi. I returned to the sedan to gain a quieter ride. So far the vehicle is wonderful but I have only driven it 1000 miles. It drives and handles like my LeSaber. Lots of headroom (which is why some professional car reviewers did not like it) . Love the ride and handling. Economy is satisfactory and nearly matches the Tucson 4 cyl. on the road. So far the only complaint is a relatively insensitive radio as I listen to AM a lot. All the Hyundais shared this problem. Delco still has the best system. Long term durability remains to be seen but based on the Sonata my expectations are high. I would definately recommend this for anyone looking for a smooth quiet ride.

I owned an older car prior to purchasing my 2011 Azera Limited. Once it was time for me to relocate to CA from Georgia for my next military assignment, I knew I would need a reliable car to make the drive there and back. The Azera did not disappoint! The ride is smooth and I love the look in black with the dark interior. Interior materials feel good quality wise and there is plenty of space. I was traditionally a GM guy, but have converted to Honda and now Hyundai on my family's last two purchases. Nevermind past Hyundai deficiencies. The company has revamped itself into a real market contender. The Azera may not be the sportiest four door sedan out there, but I give it 4 stars for strong acceleration and pretty decent handling. Take a test drive and let your experience determine if it's worthy of hard earned money. Good luck and enjoy!

I travel about 60,000 miles a year and have gone through many cars in the last 24 years. I have never bought 2 of the same cars, this will be my first time doing so. I love everything about this car........

i have been looking for a car to purchase as a retirement gift to myself, and had considered the Genesis, Nissan Maxima and Acura RL. After owning a Hyundai product before I looked at the Azera because I wanted a car with room, performance and decent mileage. I just feel that for the money it feels all the basis needs for a near Luxury sedan at a price that will make other cars seem over priced. With a 10yr/100,000 warranty, and features to satisfy most buyers, It is a car that should be considered when car shopping.

This is a great car if you are looking for something specific. I needed the headroom, at 6'4" I literally cannot fit in most cars built in the last 10 years. I'm looking for a fast car that still has a comfortable ride. The new transmission and V-6 are top notch. I want luxurious features and great surround sound with ipod capability. I want great visibility and a meaty steering wheel that is not too light. I need a motor that can be customized for at least 75 hp gains cause I love a good "sleeper" and superchargers are being made for this motor in Genesis Coupe 3.8 duty and I will put that bad boy on my new Azera for 350+ hp...even though this is already a fast car in stock form. However, I have yet to buy this car and neither has the last reviewer since it won't be out for another week. The only thing I do not like about this car is the center stack in the interior. But every time I get in the throttle I will grin ear to ear.

We love it. We looked at all competitor models as well as next rung down. Hyundai's Azera was our choice and we don't regret it. All the creature comforts of a much more expensive vehicle at a moderate price. Handles well, a lively engine, and all around quality makes the Azera a great choice. We found the interior very roomy and well appointed. The only "con" is the gas mileage, but, we figured we saved enough on the the initial buy to cover the additional expense for the next five years.
