2021 Hyundai Hybrid Sonata

I have owned 2 Hyundai Sonata's (V6) in the past & have been very happy with these vehicles. My sons both have Hyundai's because of their awesome warranty's, well equipped, and excellent safety reviews compared to other well known makers. We really like the great warranty's on the Hyundai's so glad that they started to produce hybrid vehicles. I really like the sleek body look of my 2021 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid. I choice Hyundai Sonata car for all the reasons above for our very first hybrid car.

Good technology marred by a few inconveniences

The strength of the Sonata is Hyundai's infotainment and instrument cluster, which is better than competitors and generally even better than apple/google integrations for maps. The vehicle is tuned for fuel efficiency, and in the best conditions it gets 50 mpg. It behaves like a Prius in driving and struggles to shift until too late in "eco" mode, causing frustration. This is much less noticeable in "smart" mode, however, one has to remember to switch to that mode. However, the main sour note is the lack of customization and being forced to use Hyundai's standard (default) settings each time one turns it on. The seat heating/ventilation, auto high beams, and drive mode all suffer from this problem. The reminder to keep hands on steering wheel is wildly inaccurate and cannot be turned off. I'm sorry, Hyundai, but a driver not not need to maintain 10 & 2 position on steering wheel, ESPECIALLY when using the excellent lane keeping feature on a highway.

My Sonata Experience

A few features can be better: 1) Trunk lid opening doesn't open all the way. 2) Steering wheel make plastic rubbing noice when turn. 3) Design of fuel cap lock is "cheap". 4) User manual is confusing.

Except for the Voice Recognition....

Voice recognition went out 3 weeks ago. System wide updates have been performed along with 3 audio reboots. Two dealerships have tried and failed to resolve the problem. Now both dealerships expect us to leave the car for several days so that they can try again. However, they do not have any loaner cars and this is our only vehicle. I am very frustrated. It is very dangerous to "fiddle" with the infotainment screen. Help!

Awesome car

The sonata handles well. Its beautiful and comfortable to drive. I still needed to have a cell phone holder up in eye range because spotify on my Android phone doesn't sync well with the cars entertainment system. That is my only complaint.

Performance, comfort, and style

Great performance, style and comfort. Headlights are are a standout. The N Line brings enjoyable power. Comfort and drivability in a nice powerful package. Blue link is overbearing and can not be put in background. Will be a feature not going to purchase yet controls most of audio and navigation features.

What A Car!

I recently brought my Sonata Hybrid to my favored body shop to replace a cracked headlight. The office manager, who, by the nature of the business she is in, gets to sample many cars of any price and quality, drove my vehicle to pick up the replacement parts. When I came in to pick up the repaired car, she said, “You know, when you brought the car by, I looked at it and said to myself, gee, another mediocre sedan. But then I drove it, and I gotta tell you, that’s a heck of a car! Great response, very safe and secure feeling when you drive it!” Need I say more?

Best Car Ever

This has been by far the best car i have ever bought from Hyundai!!! The 2021 Sonata Hybrid has so many new safety features in it that help me out tremendously. The solar paneled rooftop is another great addition to the car. I love the very wide screen on the console and all the cameras that surround the vehicle from every angle! The two tone interior is a first class act!

I waited most of 2020 to get the hybrid

And it was worth the wait! This is my third Hyundai Sonata hybrid and this is by far my favorite one! The feature set and the fuel economy has done nothing but improve model after model. The ride is so smooth. The controls are extremely responsive.

Sonata Hybrid Comments

I’ve had the car for 2 weeks. Very positive driving experience - quiet, comfortable. Mileage so far is incredible. 53 mpg. Only wish the suspension was slightly softer to absorb road imperfections better. I would recommend this car to anyone. I have the Limited trim and it feels almost like a luxury car.

Sonata Hybrid Review

My 2016 Sonata Hybrid was the best car I ever had. Then I bought My 2021 Sonata Hybrid. I've put only a few hundred miles on it so far, but I am extremely pleased with the comfort of its ride, the way it handles, corners, and generally performs. A ride today of 93 miles showed a computer reading of 57 mpg over both Interstate and two-lane road. I'm definitely a fan. Any friends and family who have seen it actually gasp at its overall styling and exterior design. And zero percent financing...what can I say?

Best Yet!

I have been driving Sonata Hybrid's since 2010. This by far is the BEST. I can not find a complaint other than having to wait 7 months for the vehicle to be delivered because of COVID! i WAS ORIGINALLY GOING TO GET A 2020 Sonata Hybrid but because of COVID the factory had shutdown. I had to wait for a 2021. I'm happy.

2021 Sonata Hybrid

This car gets amazing gas mileage. Almost 600 miles on one tank of gas. I love all the safety features. A lot of the same features as my friend's Tesla and I don't have to stop and wait while it charges.

Hyundai Sonata hybrid

Well I like it and I don't. I don't like the apple car because when I am listen to Bible recap it turns off with no WiFi which is dangerous. I don't care for the cruise control because it slows down instead of going the speed I need. Which is dangerous. Otherwise I love it

Sonata hybrid limited

Very quiet ride. I get to listen to music with better clarity and less road noise. Love the feeling of surround sound and how the music is put to the back when using navigation. With any hybrid, the quietness of the motor takes some getting used to. A tank of gas has lasted me 10 days compared to the 4 days from my previous car. Lots of safety features included. I love that when setting things up, the features give enough of a description to help me choose the best options that I want on or off. Lots of great details that set this model above others. I commute into Atlanta daily for work, this car hasn't let me down in performance. Great get up and go when I needed it. I would recommend this car to anyone looking to get better mileage from a vehicle if you commute or travel a lot. Another bonus- the exterior reminds us of a January, without the crazy price tag.

Love My Car

This car has so many bells and whistles on it. I fell in love with it the day I saw a friend of mines. I just had to have it of course I couldn’t afford the one she has, because my husband needed a new car too.

I love my 2021 Sonata Hybrid.

My vehicle is beautiful. I love the amenities, body style and color. The engine is quiet. I get over 550 miles per tank. The driver assistance is very helpful. The lane correction, blindspot and forward vehicle alerts have been extremely helpful. I highly recommend this vehicle and Hyundai of Gilroy.

Elegant, efficient and affordable

I’ve been looking at Hyundai models for years. When they came out with the Sonata Hybrid I was sold. The fuel efficiency, styling, handling and everything included in the Limited package sold me immediately. It’s hard to believe that this beautiful piece of technology is the least expensive Hybrid on the market.

Surprisingly Stylish

Love the vehicle and it's MPG. Only thing inwish was better is the internal storage. Toyota spoiled me by utilizing all available void spaces with storage compartments. Definitely happy with the purchase overall.
