Bought the car 3 weeks ago, and have about 1,000 miles so far. Last car was a 2012 Sonata. This 2015 sonata drives very nice but is no sports car. I like the exterior design of the 2011-2014 Sonata a lot better, but the 2015 bring more conventional. The outside noise is almost none existent. This car is very quiet. Nice interior, and is bigger inside then my 2012 Sonata. Gas mileage has been good with 39 MPG on a trip mostly at 70 MPH. only complaint so far has been two trips back to the dealer to get a faulty rear window defogger switch fixed. One complaint is there is less storage room in middle counsel area above the transmission handle. A lot of dead area there.
Quality of leather seat is poor.

Bought a 2015 Sonata Sports in July 2015. The driver's seat leather color is coming off. It's turned grey and looks worn. I have contacted Hyundai's consumer department and the dealership about the problem. They say it's worn out from getting in and out of the vehicle. This is poor quality!!! They say they can't correct the problem. Why do I have a warranty if the problem can't be corrected? I have had leather seats in other cars I owned and his has never occurred. One car I had for 10 years and this never happened. A vehicle's leather seats should not begin to deteriate within a year. It's disappointing that Hyundai doesn't stand behind their products. This is the first and last Hyundai I will purchase.

I traded in a 2013 Ford Fusion for a 2015 Hyundai Sonata back in mid October. After having the car for a little over a month I can say the new Sonata is a very solid choice in the crowded mid-sized car segment. It's very comfortable, has a smooth and quiet ride and also gets better fuel mileage than the Fusion I traded in. The car has adequate power and also is very roomy. The only cons I would say about the car is it's not as exciting to drive as say the Mazda 6 and also the styling is a little more conservative than the outgoing model but is still a very sleek looking car! So far on fuel mileage I'm averaging around 31 mpg combined and with the Fusion I got about 27.
A low-key yet VERY competent car

2015 Hyundai Sonata Sport 2.0T 4dr Sedan w/Black Leather and Gray Accents (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

Having come from a 300 horsepower Volvo S60-R (their attempt at a sports car), which proved to be quite unreliable, I was looking for a car that would be a great value, dependable, and still somewhat fun to drive. I knew at this price point it'd be a challenge. The 2.0T "Sport" trim, is definitely a tighter ride and more power than the 2.4 non-turbo. I'd call it "sportier" but not a sports car. However, I really, really like it. By reconfiguring the engine to crank out torque around 1350 RPM, there's next-to-no turbo lag, and that much more usable power, especially in daily conditions. Very happy with this purchase. This car just goes about it's job really well! March 2020 update: This car continues to be quite reliable, and at around 48K miles, still strives and feels like new. Continue to be quite happy with the purchase.

Nearly 4 years and 55,000 miles in, and, this is still a terrific car. Its styling wears extremely well - had a guy see it the other day and say, "that is one beautiful car." White looks great on this car. Only 2 minor gripes - as said in an earlier review, GPS update is $200 and a hassle to install. Fix that, Hyundai! And the front end is very low and close to ground - I have to be careful when pulling in to a parking space with a front horizontal pylon to avoid scraping bottom. Otherwise, I still love the car. Great road car - comfortable, quiet, smooth ride with great seats. I get it serviced at every recommended interval and, as a result, it has been bulletproof. Still the best car I've ever had, including 3 Accords.11 At nearly ten years, the Sonata still serves as an excellent second car. 114,000 miles on it, and the only issue is that (as with many other Hyundai products of that era) it is starting to burn oil. I now put about 4,000 miles per year on the car, and if I have to spend $50 or $60 a year adding oil between oil changes, that's not a reason to go out and sell it. It isn't as tight everywhere as it was when I bought it, but it still functions pretty flawlessly. My 14 year old grandson has his eye on it as transportation in two years, and that's a strong possibility. Overall, I'm still very happy with the car - it has served me very, very well.
