This is my 2nd Hyundai Hybrid. I absolutely love this vehicle, it is fun to drive, looks very flashy, and sips gasoline. (53 miles per gal out the gate). I have owned Toyota, mazda, VW, and Ford's in my life. Hyundai takes lots of pride, and you can see it in their vehicles. If your looking for a very comfortable, great looking, great running car, this is the one. Rev Ron Lake

I've had this car over a year now, and my review is a little more favorable than my first one. The gas mileage is still very good for this size car, I average 51mpg around town. The ride is very comfortable with plenty of legroom in the front and back. The A/C blows ice cold. I use the android auto feature and it works very well. I get a lot of compliments on the looks of the car. There are a few downsides still, but I have managed to adjust to them. First, if you park the car on even the slightest slant, the emergency brake will automatically be applied as soon as you shut the car off or put it in park, which means you have to fasten your seat belt even if you are just moving it a few feet away, such as in the garage. Second, the transmission doesn't always shift so smoothly. Third, sometimes the blind spot monitor doesn't always light up when a car is in your blind spot, so make sure you look anyways. Overall, I am very happy with this car and plan on keeping it a while.

I get 50 mpg and it drives fine with good pickup. I use the eco setting and smart on country roads. Car has been reliable and the tech works well. I still recommend this car. Hyundai has done an excellent job with this sedan. For my needs it has plenty of room with a good size trunk. Easy to get in and out. Don’t need a boring SUV. UPDATE: Problematic vehicle.
