2020 Hyundai Sonata

Yes, you have to agree that the 2020 Hyundai Sonata looks superb.  Leaner, sportier lines gives the new Hyundai family sedan a very special and distinctive look.  Running around the windows and forward over the bonnet to the headlights is an eye-catching chrome strip that meets at the DRLs.  The roofline is lower, the wheelbase longer and the overhangs are shorter.  At the rear is a nice sweeping taillight design that meets in the middle.  Twin exhaust outlets complete the picture and, hey presto, what a great looking sedan.

The design of the new Hyundai Sonata truly makes a statement, and whilst it is very attractive the Sonata also offers superbly user-friendly driving characteristics, roomy space and nice seating comfort.  There’s abundant space for tall adults to relax both in the front and rear seats, and the new model also provides a 450-litre luggage capacity behind the rear seats.

Inside the cabin are great quality materials, contrast stitching, large digital displays for the driver and the centre dash, and loads of space.  A large 10.3-inch infotainment touchscreen is available that manages pretty much everything except the new Sonata’s climate controls.  Also notable is the lack of a conventional gear lever.  Instead, there are four buttons: Park, Reverse, Neutral and Drive for getting things moving – too easy.

There are a range of models on offer which, if Hyundai stay true to their current models, will be well equipped.  Expect features like forward-collision avoidance, adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go functionality, the ability to move the car forward and backwards remotely at parking lots by using your key fob or your smartphone,, a genuinely useful lane-keeping assist, and a pile of other standard equipment to give this new sedan the edge on rivals.

We can expect the 2020 Hyundai Sonata to feature a new family of engines including a very nice turbo-charged four-cylinder 1.6-litre option, and a 2.5-litre option.  Hyundai’s eight-speed automatic transmission slips effortlessly between gears and will be the main drive for both engine plants.  A hybrid model will likely arrive soon after the more conventional powered Sonatas.  Further down the track we might see the arrival of a high performance ‘N’ Sonata with as much as 200 kW available.

Standard models get the turbocharged 1.6-liter inline-four petrol with 134 kW of power and 264 Nm of torque.  The 0-100 km/h can be dispatched in around eight seconds and you can run well passed 210 km/h.  A slightly more powerful naturally-aspirated 2.5-liter four petrol version delivers 142 kW and 245 Nm, and might be the preferred option by some.  It is certainly very smooth.

Ride quality is good and while not sporty-firm will be a winner for those who like a comfortable ride.  The 2020 Hyundai Sonata is a lovely new sedan soon to arrive with plenty of nice features like the large floating centre touchscreen, push button gear selector, premium safety and beautiful lines.

Lower, sleeker and more attractive than ever, Hyundai have a family sedan that is going to appeal to the discerning buyer.  Bang for your buck still sells cars, but now Hyundai also provides its buyers with striking looks to seal the deal.  The 2020 Sonata delivers.
