Stepped Down from a Genesis to a Sonata

Love it so far! My first new car in 7 years, and I am impressed at all the different safety features, the expanded bluetooth, etc April 11 2016.Other than a cranky driver's side seat belt retractor, everything is still working fine. I understand there is a recall regarding the seatbelt, and will have that taken care of at the next service. Otherwise, still pleased at my choice.

Sonata, so far so good

I love the ride, the quietness and the way it handles the road. For some reason the blue tooth doesn't support reading or responding to text messages. Love everything else though.

Hyundai Sonata Review

Sleek styling, comfortable ride, adequate pick-up and plenty of room for passengers and cargo. Environmental (heating) takes a bit longer to warm up the cabin, but gets there. Could use more air flow to the feet. Handles firmly on the road, but road noise is louder than expected. Overall good value for the money.

Smooth rider

Awesome car!!! Endless features in my limited- I spend 10~ hours a day in it x 7 days a week as an Uber driver. Maaaaan, total comfort. Seats and lumbar support are solid. Heated and cooled seats are a big plus. Sport mode is solid, love to blow my RPM’s and it really zips when you put your foot on the gas. Wheel tights and you really feel in control of the car coming around a tighter turn even while zooming a little. All in all, best car I’ve ever owned!!! Looking forward to preserving this bad boy and driving it 15 years from now. Don’t buy into the Honda hype, Hyundai’s are also quality. This 2016 model is very similar to Genesis’ but for almost half the MSRP

Most reliable stylish and value for your money. No repairs needed other than routine maintenance and recalls. Safe, great gas mileage no competitor even compares.

After One Month of Use

I'm impressed with the vehicle. I am an Uber driver, and it handles all the situations very well. There are a few problems. The first one is you cannot charge your cell phone or use accessories if the vehicle is turned off. I find it very annoying when I want to charge my phone. Another problem is the steering wheel obstructs the visibility of the gas gauge. I ran out of gas yesterday and it almost happened several times. another issue is once you conne t your phone to the android system there isn't any way to delete the information or the app. if i don't turn off bluetooth on my phone all my calls are on the car system
