2016 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid

We like the vehicle. Great features, safe. Only issue is hybrid motor going out twice in a week this year. The dealership has been very accommodating, giving us rental cars. However, corporate should help them to find out the root cause of the hybrid issue. We need to feel confident in the vehicle and right now we are not. Thus we won't recommend the hybrid.

Sonata Hybriid

We bought our 2016 Sonata Hybrid Limited because we were looking for a nice car that got good gas mileage. We have not been disappointed. We have just passed 52,750 miles. Our overall MPG is 42. That’s not babying it either. Ride is very comfortable. Have had zero problems. Very satisfied and glad we bought it.

Top shelf reliability

This is the most fun to drive car I have ever owned. It is smooth, quiet, and handles like a pro. It tracks as straight as an arrow down the road. It never wanders all over the road, and never needed a front end alignment. Even after 70,00 miles, the belts show no wear at all. My next car will positively be another Hyundai.

Hybrid system

I do not reccomend the Hybrid. If you put a lot of miles on a car you take a chance on warranty expiring. The 2016 sonata hybrid got problems with the hybrid system. The system also took the battery out which is also on a warranty basis and is prorated.

Best car I have ever driven, purchased, had.

Best car I have ever driven, purchased, had. This hybrid is obviously the result of years of research and painstaking trial and error. The car is a luxurious, quiet, obedient, and loyal and trusty steed. The gas mileage is incredible. I average well above the EPA 40/42. As far as the warranty, it is also top-notch. I needed an engine replacement 50,000 miles due to manufactures defect and it was done without questions, qualms, or any sort of drama. I was reimbursed by Hyundai for my rental while the vehicle was out of service. For the value, you’re really not going to find anything better. There are other hybrids out there, but this is the only one besides Volkswagen with an actual six speed transmission which makes it feel like you’re driving an actual car instead of a golf cart. Hyundai put just the right amount of control over the driving characteristics… In other words around too many options to play with, but I don’t feel like anything needs to be changed. Eco mode sport mode normal mode; all three deliver their own unique handling characteristics and make the vehicle change personalities to suit your driving needs. As far as safety, you cannot trick this car. If you’re in a dangerous situation with wet and slippery roads you’re going to make it through. The stability program on this vehicle is miles ahead of even German imports I have driven. This car does exactly what you tell it to regardless of the circumstances. As long as you have good tires on it, you can hang as if you were on railroad tracks. I have never felt more safe in a vehicle. The brakes will stop this car on a literal dime. Stability systems are extremely important to me as I was in a very bad car accident in my teens that could’ve been avoided if the vehicle is equipped with ESP. I feel like this Sonata is the perfect blend of comfort sport value utility economy. If I want to Floor it, it responds with high spirits, if I want to take it easy it does so with grace and finesse. I’m surprised and it does not have a larger share of the market…

Sonata hybrid

We are satisfied with our Sonata, but we were totally satisfied and now we are somewhat satisfied. Prior to the breakdown of the hybrid system we totally loved the car, despite being less than completely happy with the cruise control.

Great family car

I love my car. It’s nicely styled, rides great, and very comfortable for my family of 4. I would definitely recommend this car to everyone. The dealer can be pricey to get your maintenance done, but the quality of the work is so worth it.

Can't find a better car for the money

This vehicle has been problem free for almost 4 years and 45,000 miles. The only thing we have had to do is routine maintenance. The car is a pleasure to drive and long trips are a breeze. It can hold itself in traffic, accelerates well, easily holds 5.

85,000 Miles and No Problems

I bought this car in December 2016 with 2 miles on it. Now I have driven 85,000 miles with no problems. Typical maintenance items have been replaced such as hoses, belt, and tires which would be normal on any car. I get 39 to 44 MPH, it depends on how I drive it.

Love This Vehicle

I purchsed a hybrid Sonata two years ago. The style and interior room motivated me to test ride. I was really impressed. Now, it is still the car of my dreams. And the hybrid powertrain is fiving me an average of 43 mph. Love that too.

Definitely Work The Money

Car has 50000 miles in 35 months. I drive to Atlanta from Central Florida monthly and the trips are comfortable and trouble free. Wish I had Car Play but everything else is terrific. Hybrid could get better gas mileage since it does not approach what is advertised.

Absolutely and incredibly amazing car and lots of fun to drive, and it has almost paid for itself.

My 2016 Hyundai Sonata is an extremely well engineered automobile. It is almost 4 years old, and has 65,000 miles on it. I take it to Balise Hyundai for all my recommend service. And so far, there has never been any repairs needed, as no replacement parts needed, other than routine maintenance. I never ever owned anything as precision as this car. Plus it's the kind of care that gives me the incentive to drive carefully, and not aggresive, because the more sensibly I drive, the more I am rewarded by effieient performance and economy. How about 43-49 MPG for 4 years so far. And this car recharges itself. No plugging it in. 5 Stars for Hyundai

Good auto.

I enjoy the Hybrids fuel economy and quiet drive. Gas mileage is important to me. I am bothered by the lack of a spare tire or a doughnut for my safety on the road. There are problems when a tire goes flat

Rating of hybrid

Rating of 2016 hybrid. This is 2nd hybrid and 3rd Sonata since 2006 Love all of them, but the 2016 is the best. We just made a 900 mile round trip to Portland and averaged 43 miles per gallon. We never have averaged below 40 mpg in town and that is at speeds of up to 80 miles per hour (Idaho speed limit) on the freeway.

Terrible overpriced vehicle!

Constant visits to service and maintenance, overpriced lease cant rely ón charging. Gets damage frequently. Just take a look at your own service records to see the overpriced and piece of garbage this vehicle is.

Poorly made vehicle

I will never buy a Hyundai vehicle again. I just spent $2500 fixing it after barely tapping the front corner of the car on the garage. My garage doesn't have a mark on it, but my Hyundai was a mess. It caused a leak inside the car. How cheap is the plastic Hyundai uses on the body? No, I will never buy a Hyundai again!

2016 HYBRID

I have owned my Hyundai Sonata hybrid for 3 years and still love it. All I ask is that Hyundai continue to make them and not switch off to one of those plug-in electric cars which I will not buy. Unless Hyundai doses something strange to the design, my new car will be a Hyundai Sonata.

Good comfortable vehicle

I like my Hyundai. Generally runs well. Other than the recent coolant pump issue which was addressed by warranty, car seems to be running ok in the past 3 years. Look forward to future Hyundai models.
