Given the four options below, what's the best car. I have to choose one of the 4 as a company car:

Honda Accord
Toyota Camry
VW Passat
Hyundai Sonata

I don't know much about cars, so figured I'd see what input I could get here.

If the company is paying for everything, why dont you just test drive the 4 and see which one you can plant your arse on for 4 hours everyday?

Are they giving you a vehicle allowance or outright buying?

People on the OT are so indecisive.

Allowance, but there are conditions that have to be met...type of car, size, etc...

Accord.

Missus has a 2015 Sport and it gets great mpg, plenty of get up and go, nice little car for her to drive to work everyday and looks good.

Not as nice as a good friends new Maxima, but nowhere near as expensive either.

If the company is paying for it get the Passat.

It's a German driver's car, not like the other 3 yawners...

I just bought a new Pilot not long ago and my wife seems to really like it. I'm just not used to driving a car, so I don't know if there is a big difference between any of them.

You can't go wrong with a Camry or Accord.

I'm more familiar with those two. We just liked the Accord better and got a better deal on it.

We drive vehicles until the tires fall off so I expect we will have this one for years and years.

The Hyundai just seemed like it was made cheaper on the interior. If you're going to out 250k miles on one, you don't want the interior falling apart.

The Camry is roomier than the other three. It's just a more comfortable ride. It would be my first choice if I were going to spend a lot of time in one of those four.

Accord or Sonata would be the next choice, IMHO.

FWIW, of the cars you mentioned, I've owned two Camrys, two Sonatas, and one Passat. Most recently, I chose a Sonata over a comparable Accord after driving both, but would have been happy with either.
