Have always enjoyed driving Sonatas. This Hyrid we get 36 to 41 mpg in town. Has all the power we need with great pick up power.

Have owned several Hyundai Sonata cars. This 2013 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid is by far my favorite. The gauge selections help me see how well the car is performing for gas and or battery . I can set the speed control which let me sit back enjoying the view. The individual driver and pass temp controls. The hand free phone and radio selections are great. I will tell anyone that the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid has won our heart and will always be owned by me.

Handles Great, Though MPG Deceeases Over Time

I absolutely love my 2013 Sonata Limited Hybrid. Under 50,000 miles and in normal-light traffic, I would get 42 mpg and babying it, I would get 45-47 mpg. However, as it has aged my mpg has gotten a little less with my max (babying it) around 40-42, and my regular mpg at about 35-37. In-town at about 30-32mpg which isn’t bad but isn’t hybrid mileage. Now for the handling. I replaced the tires with Yokohama tires and the ride is quite smooth with a little road noise. The sound system is pretty good - excellent for its year - and all of the electronics function fabulously at 60,000 miles. It did need some extended warranty work (sunroof assembly) and I had to replace the shark fin antenna because rhe XM radio module went bad. Other than that, for a sedan; the car drives very sporty and it looks beautiful. It’s a good family car, too, with the rear air controls, drop down cup holder and more! I’ve driven the newer Elantra (2017) and Nissan Altima (2018). The Elantra has more responsive handlijg (slightly) but wasn’t my Limited - for sure. The Altima had a better stereo system and a smoother ride but handled like a Cadillac or a truck and was far from responsive. I just LOVE my car!!!! I’ll be sad when I have to replace it in a few years!

Hyundai Sonata

The car is now 5 years and 12 days old. Except for this recent episode the car functions fine. On the negative side, since initial ownership the gas mileage is reduced by 4 - 5 gallons per mile. I went in for regular maintenance, but the problem is still not resolved.

Stylish, Reliable, Amazing!

I have been a Sonata owner for years, this car is stylish, roomy, dependable, and affordable! The Hyundai Sonata Hybrid Limited has all the feature of cars almost double in price. Ergonomically everything has been well thought out in its design. You really can’t ask for a better car for the money!

Does What I Bought It For

I bought this vehicle to save money on gas as I took a new job and starting competing in boxing. Amateur boxing i not as lucrative as the more glamorous jobs I've had but def much more worth my time. The car performs well, is surprisingly fast and takes me from point A to point B. The sound system suits my needs well and has beautiful bass. It's sleek and I get compliments on the color all the time. I was reluctant to downsize from my truck but I made the best decision. I'll keep this car until it blows up in addition to my future cars. You would think it's a lil small for a 6'2" boxer but it is comfortable for the most part. It's a little fragile as far as taking damage so be careful.

Sonata

I like the Sonata so much that I upgraded to a newer model. This makes Sonata #3! The Sonata is very comfortable and the hybrid version gets a great miles per gallon ratio. The safety features are definitely a plus.

Great Car for the price

I have owned 3 new Hyundais. Right after college, I bought my first Hyundai. It was the first new car I owned. I had it for about 8 years. I got a second new car in Long Beach, California. It lasted for over 12 years. I never had big problems with it. Because I have to pay for gas, my friend suggestedd a hybrid. I never really thought about it. I love my hybrid car. It is a great car for the price. I hate to pay for gas and this car saves me a lot. Love my Hyundai hybrid.

Great Luxury car

This was purchased as a used car but was like brand new because it only had 19,000 miles on it. It is very comfortable and can accommodate 5 people. It now has 58,000 miles and I have only replaced the tires and one hybrid battery (the small one). It seems to be very reliable and the warranty is for 150,000 miles. For me, it makes a good business car and would work great for trips.

Love this car!

My Sonata Hybrid is a great car, it’s easy to drive, great on gas and it has a sleek body style. Taking trips in this car is truly enjoyable. The way the inside and console are put together is so convenient. I have never had a problem and it’s performance is smooth.

Excellent hybrid performance

The 2013 Sonata hybrid is my first purchase outside of full gasoline engine vehicles. This vehicle has performed flawlessly for the past five years and 60,000 miles. In town and highway mpg have always met or exceeded sticker claim. Power to spare when necessary. Have maintained vehicle according to manufacturer’s recommendations and it still performs as new.

I am in love with my car

I bought a Sonata Hybrid in 2013. I thought it was the prettiest car on the road then, and still do. More importantly, however, it has driven almost 90,000 miles with no problems, other than having to replace the battery - pretty normal in a hybrid, and,of course, tires. Other than that it has been a dream car. Ever dependable, always comfortable, and, of course, still beautiful.

I love hyundai

We have owned 3 Hyundai's and this is the 4th...I couldn't be happier. It is definitely economic on gas. This car is spacious enough for my family of four. My disappointment has to be the trunk space due to the hybrid battery. I also wish they came with a spare tire, as my vehicle did not.

2013 Sonata Hybrid

I absolutely love my Hyundai Sonata Hybrid. It is my first ever Hybrid and I cannot imagine not having one. Anytime you can drive 500 miles on less than $35.00 worth of gas it is a great thing. The vehicle is comfortable and reliable. I have had zero trouble with it and I now have over 100,000 miles on it. I have driven it on long distance trips with my grandchild and we love the GPS directions and our ability to look for a stopping place on line with it. I love the backup camera. This is my first and when my back is hurting bad from too much work in the garden the heated seats are the Bomb! :) I love it love it love it. Best car I've ever owned. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants energy efficiency in a good looking sporting vehicle.

Would definitely buy again

I have owned a Hyundai Sonata Hybrid Limited for a little less than 5 years and drove over 81,000 miles. I have experienced good performance and the car picks up speed so easily need to be actually careful not to go so fast. Has been reliable but did have battery component problem recently. The car gave me plenty of warning to get off the freeway safely, got a free tow to my dealer of choice and the repairs were all covered. The car was ready for pickup next day. Warranty on the car is great. Not much in maintenance cost except changing of oil. I really like that I don't have to pay so much to fill the tank, don't need to fill the tank that often and no maintenance except oil change and had to change the 12V battery (regular battery) once. I would definitely buy it again, in fact we own 2 already.

Awesome

Best car I have ever owned (now I own two). Quality unmatched. Performance just amazing. 42 to 43 city. 44 to 45 highway. We'really at 65,000 miles and have had zero maintenance issues. Hybrid drive transitions seamlessly between power modes.

2013 Sonata Hybrid

I have 124000 miles on this vehicle. Gas mileage is 34 mpg or better in town and highway. Maintenance is done on a regular basis and has been very reliable. Thus as a drive system the car is excellent. Hybrid breaking is more reliable where brake linings are still in good shape. The car electronics are another thing. The drive system is very important but the electronics are becoming a major part of the driving experience. Having driven a 2018 Sonata standard car, many of the features I found I would like have been implemented. The center display of drive information has implemented Miles/Hour with more practical information. Having the blind side system is a must. The 2013 has a very poor GPS map system otherwise better than the 2018 Sonata. The passenger seat is too low.

jack h

this car has more standard features than any vehicle costing 2 times as much. ride is good, performance is very acceptable (not doggy) . the only con is the height of the front end. It should be about 2 inches higher to clear parking curbs. also the gps is a little hard to program until you learn it. excellent vehicle.

LOVE my Hyundai Hybrid

From the moment I saw my gleaming white Hyundai Sonata Hybrid, I knew it was the car for me. It was 2 years old but I just had the right feeling about the car and it has proven to be a delight, both in looks and how well it operates and rides. I actually bought it on the spot without looking at other cards. It is SO economical on gas, I only fill it maybe once a month! I know, hard to believe. Best vehicle I've ever purchased. It's my Princess!
