Loving my sonata

I've been a Hyundai owner for the past 12 years. This is the first Sonata I've had and I really am loving it.

Great car

The only thing I have a complaint about is, increase the hp on the 2.5, or put a turbo on all of them! Too sluggish otherwise!

Finally, I found a car!

After having the same car for nearly 20 years we needed a new one badly. But cars have just changed so much. Most don’t have regular transmissions or they have two soft of a ride or two sporty of a ride. Most vehicles are too far off the ground which adds to my issues of car sickness, as do CVT transmissions that give me a feeling of floating. After buying five cars and having to resell each, , including one brand new Honda Civic that we had to sell after three months and lost $5000. We were about to give up. Sonata was not on our radar because we were trying to mimic the wheelbase of our old car for the ride that I was needing and every other car that had that longer wheelbase like the Toyota Camry or the Honda Accord just rode too soft and floated because of their CVT transmissions. We kept trying every new car that we could think of to the point where car salesman would take an early lunch to avoid us…lol I think it takes a lot to scare off a car salesman, but after the first few minutes in the car, I felt right at home. We were kind of in shock so we had to go home and evaluate the test drive and went back the next day and bought it and I’ve done very well since then. She has some of the other features that were extremely important to me was that my passenger seat had a pump to raise it up. It’s pathetic that every other vehicle does not have that in all models. I am short wasted, and for example, in the Accord, I couldn’t even see over the dash. And the second thing which was extremely important to me was the color options for the interior. There was a light interior available, but also had a light headliner that also had a gray dash.. I am so sick of all this all black stuff which just sucks all the light out of the interior of the car, giving you a odd sensation of disconnect from the outside. But the thing that amazed me the most was that it had a good clear, undistorted windshield. What is it with car’s glass these days? Everything either has waves in it or magnification. Some give you a distortion of the road lines coming in at you in your field of vision. In most cases I would be carsick before I got a block from the dealership. There’s no distortion in this windshield.

The Hyundai Sonata is the best car I’ve ever owned

Perfect size and more room than I expected including trunk space. The Sonata also drives more smooth than any other car I’ve ever owned. I also really like the technology features and options that came with this car.

Very well engineered and comfortable

I really like the way this car is designed and built. It feels very comfortable, solid, and is quite reliable. Also, it has very good gas mileage for the size of the vehicle and has no maintenance issues.

N line sonata

Too cramped Need for complex maintenance schedule in relatively short duration: dual clutch in automatic transmission recommended expensive service within 60K miles No intake manifold on engine-could present expensive service down the road Engine may be good for couple hundred thousand miles but projected maintenance will need be done by Hyundai at high cost and will need be performed by a trained and dedicated employeee, which can usually be difficult to come across!

Title

I made the mistake of not test-driving this car before saying "yes" to it (because I was coming out of a '23 and thought that most elements would be the same or better). It is a mistake I will never make again.

This car takes care of me.

After years of sporty cars I was finally ready for something smooth, quiet, and relaxing. The price is right, the build quality is above average, and it rides like a luxury car. The number of safety and convenience features is amazing.

Very quiet vehicle

I looked at some reviews before I purchased this car. Some reviews say that it is sluggish when passing on the interstate. I disagree with that. No it is not a v8 nor a v6 but you dont need to floor the fuel pedal to pass a car. It has some pep to pass very easily.

Great vehicle. The only issue is that when the fan for the ac is on 100% there is some sort of power surging.

Everything is good except transmission

Vehicle has been good so far initially except for the transmission. When first driven in the morning at slow speeds the transmission lunges and lurches for a little while till it seems to get warmed up and then its fine. It is so bad that you have to take your foot of the accelerator and then try to reaccelerate. I also had a 2024 Sonata and it did the same thing. Might be my last Hyundai.

NOT WHAT THEY USED TO BE

THIS IS OUR 3RD SONATA, 2018,2021, 2026, THIS ONE IS A STEP BACKWARDS FROM THE 21. THE 26 SEEMS TO BE A CHEAPER CAR. DOWN ON POWER, DOWN ON ALMOST EVERYTHING. IF I KNEW IT WAS THIS BAD, I WOULD HAVE PASSED ON IT

Personally I think the title is fine why would you want to change it

The — lighting on the console is very weak and difficult to read Especially if there's any sunlight coming in you can't tell if it's on or off especially the air condition and the speeds of the fans other than that I think it's a fine car but the lighting is very susceptible as very poor
