Smooth!

I'm enjoying my new 2016 Sonata Hybrid. It's just a very smooth when driving. If you're looking for speed, you might was to try their Sport version.

Thriving By Driving - The Hyundai Sonata Hybrid

First time to buy a hybrid and was hesitant to do so. Had two other Hyundai's in the past which were great vehicles so opted to stay with the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid. The size of this car was bigger and roomier than many hybrids. The battery is hidden in the trunk where there is great storage space. The ride is smooth and the car has great pick up. The clincher is the gas mileage. Average between 42 to 48 miles per gallon per fill up in the 15.8 gallon tank. Generally fill up between 625 and 675 miles but once pushed it to 707 miles. People I work with can't believe a car this size gets that type of gas mileage. In the future car buying will begin by looking at hybrids.

My new 2016 Sonata Hybrid

I once owned a Lexus and I've got to say that the new Sonata is every bit as good. It is solidly built with a lot of style and hi tech interfaces. I really enjoy driving it. My former car was a Prius and that was nice but there is no comparison to the Sonata. Being a hybrid, I am averaging about 41 MPH in the city mostly. A great overall driving experience.

2016 Sonata Hybrid

I have only owned this car for 3 months and have under 3000 miles on it so these are my early opinions. The Hybrid battery failed and had to be changed already (so I gave it a 5). I have not seen anywhere near the advertised MPG, this may be due to the cold winter temps so I'll have to wait until summer and see if it improves to the advertised MPG or not. It is an SE model so not a lot of options(features) on it but, is well equipped for base.

Great on fuel!!!

This vehicle is amazing! The engine is super silent, the fuel efficiency is the best feature! I only put gas twice a month if I drive to work and run my miscellaneous errands. Overall, I like my Hyundai Sonata Hybrid.

The overall styling and comfort of this car is excellent. The gas mileage for a hybrid is disappointing.

2016 Sonata Hybrid

I've only had the car for 1 year and it's been in the shop of most of that year. So far I've had the axle, hub bearing and backing plate replaced. Now the noise that i'm continuing to hear is considered "normal" and the sound is coming from "HPU Cycling", which makes absolutely no sense, because when I test drove the car and drove it off the lot, I didn't hear any sounds. At this point I really DO NOT WANT THIS CAR! This is my 2nd vehicle with Hyundai, and this is unacceptable.

Affordable and high quality Hybrid

The Sonata Hybrid is a great value for what I consider a full size car. I was able to get a comparable Hybrid to the competitors at a much lower cost. The model had already been available for over a year, so I knew from my consumer magazine that the quality was very good. I wanted a quiet ride in a car with basic amenities and comfort, that was very reliable, has a great range, and around 40+ MPG. The entry level I ended up purchasing didn't have all the wonderful conveniences that were on the Limited version, but at $7,000 less, I was happy to make that decision. The plug-in version that goes around 25 miles on EV alone was my first choice, but at a minimum of $14,000 more (or 9,000 more if you count the Federal Rebate), it would have taken me about 30 years to save the increased cost of vehicle, compared to gas savings. The mileage on the regular hybrid is so good, you only spend a little over $1000 per year on gas anyway! The only comfort I really miss is the heated seat option, so I bought a quality aftermarket heated seat skin to use and pocketed the $7,000 difference from the Limited. Hyundai was really great about keeping their word on the incentives and discounts, including $500 on top of the other discounts, with proof of Veteran status. I get real world 39 mpg in the winter mixed driving and am looking forward to how the summer mileage will improve. Big pluses are the quiet ride, comfortable seats, visibility, rear seat leg and head space, 600 mile range, 5 year/60,000 mile bumper to bumper, and reliability. The hybrid function is mostly seamless and sometimes you don't even notice the engine cycling on/off with charging level of the lithium battery. I like that it will run in EV mode for slow or highway driving, at times. The feature allowing seemless change between the eco, regular, and sport mode is really nice to use allowing faster responsiveness of the gear change according to what you are comfortable with. The only real negative was my attempted use of the BlueLink navigation which is given as a short trial for free. I tried it since I didn't buy the car with the Navigation feature built-in. It was not accurate for me and I have reverted to using my own iphone with google maps that is flawless. It is odd since the BlueLink uses Google for this function! No problem, I just use my smartphone for nav as I always have. I've owned the car just over a month and have 1200 miles driven, and would buy this car again if I had it to do over again. I highly recommend it for the first time hybrid buyer or someone that wants to move up in space compared to a Prius. Your decision on base model versus a Limited model is a personal decision and even paying the extra can be a great value for all the extra features, and at significantly less money that the cost of the main competitor.

2016 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid

Excellent vehicle. Performs very well during shifting, driving and braking. Switching from gas to battery drive is seamless. Road and engine noise is at a minimum. Very comfortable ride, roomy with plenty of storage space. Controls are easily accessible while driving.
