Bottomline TheCarConnection.com still rates the Honda Accord as the family-sedan champion, but the 2009 Hyundai Sonata lands solidly in the upstart tier that includes the Mazda6, Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Malibu. The 2008 Nissan Altima Coupe provides most of the practicality of the Altima sedan, with a lot more style.
