Yikes, the April 2014 sales report for the Azera is horrible, showing the 2014 figures at half of the 2013 rate. Here is the latest report from Hyundai. The numbers for each year includes the sales of any model year Azera, so leftover 2013 Azeras are included in the 2014 sales numbers.
April 2013, Sold 1,409
April 2014, Sold 701
2013 Calendar year to date, Sold 4,118
2014 Calendar year to date, Sold 2,819
I suspect a lot of this is caused by the lack of advertising and inventory. My dealer may have over 100 Elantras and over 100 Sonatas, and even about 30 Genesis's in stock, but only 6 to 10 Azeras. They have little incentive to sell an Azera when they move so many more of the other models. I bought my 2014 Azera in early March and I was their first 2014 Azera sale.
