This is a great car with all the bells and whistles. I have a limited edition and has great technology that is pretty easy to use. The ride is really smooth and the performance is outstanding. And, it looks good while also being stingy on the gas. I'm currently getting over 45mpg and it's still going up. I did have to learn to drive it somewhat assertively to ensure the battery continues to charge and you get the best fuel economy. I started driving it VERY conservatively thinking that would promote higher mpg but it didn't. I've only had the 2 months so I'm still getting used to everything but I love it thus far. I had a 2017 Sonata Hybrid Limited prior to this car and it was so dependable.

This is our 5th hyundai and we are happy with the fuel mileage however we were entering a local business and the underside of the vehicle scraped the ground. as we were leaving we could hear something rubbing on the ground, it turns out that they underside of this vehicle has several fiberboard panels held on by cheap clips and if you rub on a speedbump or driveway they can pull loose (common problem per dealer service department. hyundai will not cover these on warranty and replacement cost for one is approximately $550.00. we have never had a problem like this on our 2013 sonata hybrid. these panels will not last and will need replacing. who puts a fiberboard on the bottom of a car. dealers do not have these panels in stock and when they rub on the ground could possibly cause a fire.

This is a very good car. One odd detail is that the basic Blue version has 16" wheels and the SEL and Limited have 17" wheels. Other than more option athe specs and the same...... except the fuel econoy is better on the 16" wheel version. I can't figure out why????

I've had my 2021 Sonata Hybrid for 4 months now. Styling is a subjective issue so I won't dwell on that but I do prefer the front end treatment on the Hybrid Model over all the other 2021 Sonatas. The interior is beautiful and a wonderful place to spend time. Handling is spectacular BUT I personally would gladly trade off a couple notches of handling prowess for a couple notches of improvement in ride quality. This firm ride is more apparent at low speeds than on the highway. The technology and driver safety equipment is pretty remarkable with a couple caveats. Why have "Manual Gear Selection Capability" at all if the vehicle insists on reverting back to DRIVE within 10 seconds of selecting a specific gear. Not much good for using engine braking when driving in mountainous terrain. The fuel economy is actually pretty outstanding for a vehicle of this size BUT nowhere near as good as what the onboard "Guess-O-Meter" display would have you believe. It is as much as >15% optimistic compared to Real World Calculations. I keep all fuel receipts in a spreadsheet so I KNOW exactly what the vehicle actually delivers. EPA numbers have not yet been met BUT it has all been winter driving with snow tires so far so I'll wait to see how it all pans out over a full year. The Solar Roof is an interesting gimmick but it certainly points out the benefit of having solar cells pointing at/tracking the sun's position in the sky. The onboard display has certainly demonstrated that Spring is indeed on it's way. Yeah!

Delicate Front Bumper Structure

While otherwise a good car the facia attached adjacent to underneath the front bumper structure is prone to detachment during normal driving. When it partially detaches the car makes a loud scraping noise that makes it difficult to drive. I do not off road or otherwise drive abnormally and at less than 7,000 miles this part detached. I have never had that happen to any car I have driven in the past including Audis, Infiniti and a Toyota Supra (which I did drive somewhat aggressively as its a sports car). The dealer of course tries to blame me yet has no answer when I say it has never happened before. This is a weakness in the design of the Sonata Hybrid and will cost you up to $800 to repair if it happens to you. They refuse to cover it under warranty. The car is otherwise great but I can only give it two stars due to this problem. I cannot recommend the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid.
