The Avenger's unique style really is its best attribute.
Otherwise, models like the Hyundai Sonata and Kia Optima are more fuel-efficient, better-performing, and in most cases, more comfortable.
On the other hand, those models aren't offered with a V-6.
The Ford Fusion was all-new last year, and it's now a step beyond the Avenger in every conceivable way.
The Volkswagen Jetta is another value-oriented alternative to the Avenger, but its design is more cohesive, and its optional clean-diesel engine earns significantly better fuel economy.

With a standout design; perky performance; great gas mileage; and exceptional value for the money, the 2013 Hyundai Sonata is one of the best buys among mid-size sedans. | |
