Aaron's Plug In Sonata Hybrid (PHEV)

I never thought a vehicle could travel so far on one tank of fuel! Two fill ups so far since purchasing 12/15/2015, first tank 1371 miles, 2nd tank 1425 miles. Quiet gasoline operation and eerily quiet all electric operation. Stays in EV mode as long as you keep it in ECO mode and do not go past the 40%-50% mark on the instrument cluster. Very comfortable and lots of room for all occupants. Overall I could not be more pleased with this vehicle. It will be even better once Android Auto is released for it!

Fun Vehicle, Low Cost to Operate

I had the Sonata Plug-In for 3 months without opening the gas tank. Finally filled it when leaving on a long road trip. We drove over 8,000 miles on about $300 of gas. The car is super comfortable and the ventilated seats in cooling mode are a must for summer driving; don't know how I survived without them. The stereo system is phenomenal for blasting road trip music. The car handles well and really sticks in turns. It was able to run in electric mode at 80 MPH while driving in Texas with 2 passengers and a loaded trunk. The only negative thing is the size of the trunk; it will hold 2 suitcases if they are not overstuffed. The trunk was a trade-off for the extra batteries for the plug-in. The range when fully charged and a full gas tank is about 600 miles which can be a little problematic if you drink coffee or too much water on a road trip.

Hyundai Sonata Limited, Hybrid plug-in

This is a wonderful car, smooth, comfotable and quiet, with power and features that rival the luxury cars we cosidered buying. Hyundai has done everything just about perfectly. Because most of our trips involve city driving oof less than 30 miles (and we average better than 30 miles on a charge), we are getting between 500 and 600 miles per gallon of gas. We have solar power in our home, so charging is basically free....nice to feel we are leaving a small environmental footprint. We did a lot of research and drove several different vehicles before selecting the Hyundai. Could not have made a better decision....it has exceeded all of our expectations.

Sonata Plug in could be best value around

The Sonata Hybrid Plug-in is clearly a very efficient car. I have been surprised by the quality of the car, the features included and the comfort of the ride. I really enjoy driving it.

Love this car.

Comfortable and quiet with all the advanced technology and features of luxury cars costing much more. I'm able to drive 25-30 miles all electric before hybrid comes on. Even on longer trips beyond electric range, I'm averaging 70-80 mpg! Also eligible for car pool lane, and over $6700 in government and utility rebates. Only annoyance has been recurrent check engine light each time due to gas cap vapor issue. All work covered by warranty of course.

Hyundai Sonata Plug In Hybrid Limited

Great vehicle! Perfect replacement for my Passat TDI being bought back by VW. It does everything that car did and way more. It is comfortable, spacious and it is fun playing around with what mode (EV or hybrid) makes the most sense on your given drive. I routinely get more than the 25-27 stated miles on electric alone. These are a great deal with the money Hyundai and the dealers throws at you to buy. On top of that, look for other special discounts you might be able to qualify for along with the Federal tax credit and state credit (if your state does this). Made my $38.7k MSRP drop to $24k purchase price, awesome! I would have to nit-pick to say anything even close to bad about this car and I have owned it for nearly 3 months/4k+ miles. Compared to the hybrid/plug in competitors as of Fall 2016, this is the best choice. I tried them all from the Fusion, Malibu (2nd place), etc. Plenty of space for a 6'5" driver and passengers, not easy to do in every "mid-saize" car.

2016 Hyundai Sonata Plug-in Limited

Very satisfied with driving comfort, fuel economy, electric driving range. A few minor suggestions: (1) allow for electric front window defrost heating to avoid using the car engine while in the EV driving mode, and (2) improve the GPS system so that it helps with the input of city and street addresses by guessing the city or street name options after the first few letters have been put into the system.

Love my Sonata PEH

I'm sooo happy with my new Sonata Plug in Hybrid. It feels extremely luxurious, and I'm able to get 30-38 miles on a charge easily. The smoothness of electric and hybrid function is effortless. Love the lumbar support on drivers seat. Love the heated/cooled seats and heated steering wheel. Love the features that cut back on wasted energy (e.g. driver only ventilation, econ on ventilation, econ on engine). Only complaints is that I wish it came with Apple Car Play. Also, can't believe the lifetime warranty on battery and excellent overall warranty. This vehicle really should be flying off the lot.

Almost turns a luxury into an investment

After the government incentives and the fuel savings this car is about as close as you can get to considering a new vehicle an investment in financial terms. It's comfortable, stylish and saves me tons of money at the pump. If you have solar I highly recommend looking at a plug in hybrid.
