Used 2023 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid Consumer Reviews
Great Value for the Money
I have had this Hybrid Limited car (bought brand new) for about 5 months now and have over 8.000 miles. I have experienced great mileage ( i am not a person that accelerates hard or slam my brakes), so i have got an average of 46.9 MPG. One issue i have is that the car sometimes takes too long to drop into a higher gear on its own. it also does not go into the EV mode as easily as when it was newer. When i am coasting, it takes a while to go into EV mode. Overall, a great car. I have not used all the features (too many to list), but I use all the ones that I need to use. I will wait for a few more months to see how things work out before i can say for sure if the decision I made was sound. UPDATE: It has now been almost 1.5 years since i have had this car. I have still been very happy with it. Gas Mileage. Fortunately, i have had no problems with the car, and other than oil changes and a blown tire (not Hyundai's fault) i have not needed to take the car into the dealership. Overall, i still give it a 5-star review. UPDATE May 13, 2025 It's almost 2 years i have owned this car now. The car still runs great. I still give it a 5-star review with almost 31K on the odometer. The mileage is still great. Spring and Fall mileage is way better than Winter 9which is understandable). Since i have owned the car, my average MPG has been recorded at 46.4 MPG. I cannot complain. I have had at least 2 major trips where i have been able to go 600 miles on a gas tank. I am so glad that i bought a Hybrid, and would suggest that to everyone that is concerned about the environment.

What's up with the horrible depreciation?
Purchased this vehicle in Sept. '21 because of a need for better mileage, and the '22 Sonata Hybrid was perfect for that. It has a sporty look, of course, which was not a huge factor for me but others seemed to appreciate. The front air dam sits low and it too easily scrapes bottom when driving uneven surfaces or pulling up to even moderate-height curbs. I purchased the Limited version, which includes the leather seating and all the bells and whistles one would expect. The ride itself is decent. It has a little bit of pickup when you need it, but it is not a "performance" vehicle by any stretch of the imagination. I bought it at a time when supplies were tight, and there was no negotiation on the price - not with any vehicles of any make. What came as a huge shock was when I was considering trading it in on a new vehicle. After 2 years, the vehicle has lost about 40% in value according to the dealer and the usual websites one turns to when researching such things. Yes, I put about 30k miles on it in that time, but really - a 40% drop in value? Other than the miles there is no reason I could fathom that would justify such a rapid fall; and I would warn shoppers to consider this when looking at a Hyundai. They may seem economical up-front, but unless you plan on driving one until it's ready for the scrapyard, it may cost you if you want to upgrade at some point before then.

Sweet
I have always had the Hyundai sonata hybrid limited. I could not afford the brand new limited, but it doesn't matter because the SEL has the Bose surround system and all of the amenities. The coolest thing is that it can try to drive and stay between the lines. It's not the greatest but good enough for me if I have to grab something!
Hybrids are for younger people
Hybrids or EV's are for younger people not 80 year olds like myself. The solar roof does away with the moon roof. Growing up with mechanical cars makes electric vehicles hard to get used to. A lot of learning but not at this age. The instrument panel gave so much information it was confusing. The test drive was useless, my car feels all the bumps in the road but where you drive the new cars the roads are so smooth even my cay felt good.
Very Satisfied Customer
I have owned my 2023 Sonata Hybrid (Limited) for 17 months and could not be happier with the purchase. I cannot get over the features, warranty, performance, and level of finish the car offers for the price I paid. I am averaging roughly 45 mpg combined city/highway driving during these past seven months I was looking for a hybrid sedan and, in my opinion, this one is the best price/value combination on the market, hands down. Anyone looking for a new hybrid sedan should strongly consider this vehicle. I would 100% buy it again with no hesitation.
