Excellent Vehicle!

This vehicle is awesome, just like every other Sonata I've purchased over the last 20+ years, with each vehicle being greater than the previous one.

My review

The lack of a spare tire cost me almost 300 dollars last week metire was slashed service outfit and buy a new tire at 1030 pm and had to get a emergency service to come out at night. THT LA NO spare is definitely a BAD IDEA! I intend to buy a new A SPARE TIRE,WHEEL AND jack and warn all about it!

lack of power

I traded in a 2019 Hyundai Sonata and my 2026 Sonata does not have as much pep. It must have a smaller engine. it has trouble keeping a steady speed.

26 Sonata Sport trim

This brand new car had WARPED front rotors installed at the FACTORY which the dealer replaced. The engine groans and moans on acceleration. Whenever you turn on the A/C the engine groans. The engine has hesitates when accelerating/poor acceleration unless you floor the pedal when in normal/my drive mode

Good value, nice features, questionable build quality.

I really wanted to love this car—and in many ways, I do. The design is beautiful, especially in silver. The wide stance, the rims, the subtle spoiler, the light bar… it all looks premium. The ride is smooth, the seats are comfortable, and the interior feels modern and thoughtfully laid out. The gear selector grew on me fast, and the cabin space is excellent. But the rattles. The rattles are everywhere. All four door panels vibrate and the noise changes depending on how the door was closed. Sometimes I have to hold the door while driving just to stop it. The insulation near the engine bay is loose and adds even more noise at low speeds. Music helps, but only up to a point—turn it above volume 30 and the rattling overwhelms the speakers. It’s disappointing because the car has so much going for it: good low‑speed power, strong brakes, solid AWD, and driver‑assist features that work well. I feel safe in it. I enjoy driving it. But the build‑quality issues are impossible to ignore. This car is a great value, and I wish Hyundai offered a Limited AWD version. Still, the constant rattling makes the ownership experience frustrating, especially for a brand‑new vehicle. I'm not so sure I'd buy another Sontona. Maybe the Kia K5 is the better version.

Wish for more luxury

I would like a seated air vents rather than heated seats. Maybe the seats to go lower. I feel to high. I would like neutral colors on the interior. All grey or black. Red trim is a lot.
