Nice cars aren’t always pricey, and with the new Hyundai Sonata Sedan this is a very true statement. Hyundai has been making some very stylish and popular cars that people want to be seen in. And the Sonata Sedan is another of these sorts of successful designs that catch the eye, and obviously potential buyer’s attention. There is no point in spending loads of money on a new car if you don’t have to, and the price of a new Hyundai Sonata Sedan is way less than any European equivalent Sedan.
First of all, when you rock up to the Hyundai Sonata Sedan, first impressions is that this is no turn-off-the-vibe design. Sleek lines flow over the muscly bonnet and down along the high waistline, finishing at what is a very nice tail light and bumper design. Without even popping the boot lid you know that this is going to carry loads of luggage, should the need arise. Split-folding rear seats aid luggage carrying capacity. Slip into the Sonata seats, and the smart interior captures the eye and the imagination, with modern switchgear, flowing dash lines and yes, those nice supportive and tactile seats feel as good as they look. Modern technology never looks so good, particularly when crisp blue backlighting sets the scene. Features like the cruise control, blue lighting, climate air-conditioning and heated and ventilated front seats (Premium model) make a trip so satisfying. Slip behind the steering wheel, and the multi-adjustable driver’s seat and steering wheel fits the driver’s body shape perfectly. When you’re in the hot seat, you quickly notice that the driver’s cockpit is positioned to give you complete control over all the switchgear and dashboard functions.
Hyundai Sonata Sedan variants start with the credible and very practical Sonata Active sedan. Then it’s just a case of building off this well-equipped model – which incidentally is priced at under $30k. So from the Active model, looking to the other variants in the Sonata Sedan line-up to get exactly the car and its features that you are after is easy. Of course, the Hyundai Sonata Premium model is loaded with all the luxury and safety features you could imagine.
For a medium size car, you are in a roomy interior that offers comfortable seating for five adults, lots of storage alternatives and dual-zone climate control. The Hyundai Sonata Sedan boasts a multimedia and navigation system that is a 5-inch size in the Hyundai Sonata Active model, while the Elite and Premium models get the high definition 8-inch multi-tasking touchscreen that enables you to check navigation and audio-visual information at the same time. LED daytime running headlights and rain sensing wipers are some nice modern features that add to the car’s overall high level of safety.
What powers the all new Hyundai Sonata Sedan? In the Sonata Elite and Premium variants, you’ll enjoy the 2.0-litre turbocharged GDI engine that delivers a very responsive 180 kW of power at 6000 rpm. Maximum torque is 350 Nm, and this is delivered from as low as 1400 right through to 4000 rpm. The fuel economy of 9.2L/100km is average for the size of car and performance of the engine. The new Hyundai Sonata Active Sedan harnesses a powerful 2.4-litre Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) 4-cylinder engine that is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. A smooth balance of performance, and a fuel economy of 8.3L/100km, means that this is a great match for the roomy and comfortable Hyundai Sonata Sedan.
Ride quality is excellent, and the Hyundai Sonata has been tuned for Australian conditions. The MacPherson strut front suspension with Amplitude Selective Dampeners (ASD) features a newly-designed rear wheel geometry and increased bearing strength. The result is a very sharp handling FWD Sonata Sedan that matches the best in the class.
