I purchased my Sonata last weekend and so far its amazing. Currently, I'm averaging 37mpg. The price was significantly lower than competative hybrids and it's extremely well equiped. i previously owned a 2005 Sonata and it was the best car I ever owned. I'll check back in a couple of months and let you know if I'm still thrilled with my purchase.

Traded my Town And Country in July and in agreement with most of the positive reviews but very unhappy with a rapid jerking on acceleration from lower speed.Does not feel like shifting or transittion from gas to elect. and does not do it all the time. Took to dealer and it ran fine and was told no reports of any problems then found edumonds review on line so don"t know what to think.Have bought over 20 cars and not had this problem and don't want it now.

Over all I really like the Sonata Hybrid base; I was really surprised at the pick up; not all doggy...floor it and you’re gone. MPG; I expected better; I learned that in the winter mileage drops significantly; l’ll take this car when I retire to Florida. As noted, I bought the Base model, I have been looking for something new and I would go with the Limited or with more options than I got. I’m not crazy over the tan cloth upholstery; shows water stains. The trunk space is not good; the battery. I like the look much better than the Prius; I have received a lot of compliments on the look. I must like it because I’m looking for anotherone.

I have a 2012 Sonata hybrid premium, I really have enjoyed the car.I average 39-45mpg combination of city and highway and enjoy the driving experience. It doesnt lack power and the leather seats and power moon roof add some luxury. Heated seats front and back are a nice touch. Its a good looking car that doesnt look like a "hybrid" it just looks like a sports sedan.
