The original Sonata (Y1) was part of Hyundai's expansion in North America after the success of the Excel, which had engines derived from Mitsubishi Motors units. The exterior was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro of ItalDesign. The vehicle received a mid-term facelift in 1991. It replaced the Stellar for the North American market. Some Sonatas were built in Korea, and in Bromont, Quebec. The Sonata was a Hyundai design, but still featured some Mitsubishi engineering, including its 2.4 L 110 hp (82 kW) I4 engine as u ...

The Century received a facelift for 1989, gaining a new more-rounded roofline, but continuing on the aging GM A platform. Beginning in 1989, all models except wagons were easily known by their distinctive full-width tailights, a somewhat extravagant flourish on a smaller sedan, but one that carried on a Buick tradition of big taillights. An exterior refresh came in 1991. The 2.5 L I4 was replaced with a new 110 hp 2.2 L for 1993. For 1994, the coupe model was dropped, and all models received a standard driver-side airbag. Also ...

Specification was high, with electric action for the windows, mirrors, seats and hood. 1994 saw a mild facelift for the SL, and the 300SL was replaced in Europe by the SL280 and SL320 (with 2.8 L and 3.2 L I6 engines).
