Awesome and It gets the MPG+
I read all of the Edmunds review. In a very minor way, i saw a small bit ogf the "lurching". Nothing I would not have expected at all...very very minor. I proudly got 38.5 driving to and in the mountains. Upon return, I recevived 42.5 mpg due to less hilly route upon return. Best vehicle coice I have made. Price, value, MPG, comfort and style!! looks awesome!!!

Couldn't be happier!
I've had my 2012 Hybrid Sonata (premium trim - the $32,000 vehicle) for 1 month now. Great car. I've been getting at least 41 mpg average on both mixed city and highway driving. I don't have any problems with breaking or the shifting from electric to gas like I've seen some reviews here say. Did I say great car? I'm so happy that I bought it. I have the metallic blue, premium hybrid. The design outside is to die for - I've had so many compliments. It is roomy inside and very comfortable. I can't say enough about it. I love the panoramic sunroof, the navigation, the Blue link, and of course the wheels. Very sharp car.
Reasonable compromise for a Boomer
We acquired a 2012 Sonata Hybrid after looking at many options in this price/category. the Sonata is comfortable to drive and ride in, fairly quite and gets OK (but not nearly the EPA MPG) gas mileage. I've put about 2500 miles on it and it is averaging about 30 MPG in mostly in-town driving which is where it should be using the battery the most so I was expecting better MPG. ANY in-town hill gives it a challenge as it tries to go from battery to motor. Build quality is good so far. Rear seats are comfortable. Highway cruising is good.
Love it so far
Bought the last 2012 Hybrid on the lot. Incentives were good enough to get what I considered a "fair" deal. Rides better than the Chrysler 300 I traded in, but to be fair the Chrysler had 20" wheels and this has 16's so the difference in tire sidewall could account for a lot of the ride. Gas mileage on the first tank was only 28 mpg(still 7 mpg better than the 300) with an equal mix of city/hwy. I am sure it will improve although I haven't fueled yet this week to see what the 2nd full tank will show. But just the fact that I have driven 1000 miles on two tanks of fuel is something the 300 would never have accomplished.
2012 Sonata Hybrid
Just picked up the new car this week. Received rebates, 0% for 60 months and nice discount. Have driven the car about 500 miles and am averaging 39 MPG. I love this car so far, the technology is amazing. It drive and rides very nice. Drove it about 250 miles first day on turnpike, 70 mph with no problems. Its not as powerful as my 2007 Sonata with V6, but the mileage is a good trade off.
This is the One!
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.
ALMOST HAPPY
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.
Very Nice Hybrid
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.

Decent value for the money
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.

I love my car!!
I bought mine off a family member who keep it in really good shape since new and in about 2 months I put over 2000 miles on it and it’s a Trooper very smooth and boy It moves! I’m so glad I have my car I wouldn’t want it any other way and the gas mileage is great I get about 32-35 but I’m pretty sure I Could get more if I tried but seriously I would recommend this car to anyone

love it
I love my sonata hybrid. This is the first time I have owned a hybrid. I love it. The dealership made the buying experience painless. Because of my awesome experience with the first Hyundai is why I decided to return to Ron Carter for this replacement.
