The current-generation Sonata is already one of Edmunds' highest-rated midsize sedans, so the updates it receives for 2018 will only help fortify its position alongside the all-new Toyota Camry and Honda Accord at the top of the class.

While we feel the new models will pose some stiff competition, it's understandable why Hyundai hasn't fully overhauled the Sonata. The cabin is still very comfortable and spacious by today's measures, and it looks even more upscale with the design changes to the center console and transition to a three-spoke steering wheel. The Sonata's smooth ride quality and large trunk (16.3 cubic feet) also make it pleasantly practical for both weekend and daily duty.

The Sonata also has highly flexible configurations — seven trim levels to be exact — ranging from a value-driven SE to a fully loaded Limited 2.0T that comes with just about every convenience you can imagine. We aren't huge fans of the base four-cylinder engine that comes in the SE, and would recommend any of the turbocharged engine options, but rest assured even the SE trim packs in a generous number of features. You really can't go wrong.

Notably, we picked the 2018 Hyundai Sonata as one of Edmunds' Best Midsize Sedans for this year.

Trim levels & features

The 2018 Hyundai Sonata is a midsize sedan available in SE, Eco, SEL, Sport, Limited, Sport 2.0T and Limited 2.0T trim levels. There are three four-cylinder engines available: a base 2.4-liter (185 hp, 178 lb-ft) paired with a six-speed automatic transmission that powers the SE, SEL, Sport and Limited trims; a turbocharged 2.0-liter (245 hp, 260 lb-ft) that features a new eight-speed automatic powering the two aptly named 2.0T trims; and a turbocharged 1.6-liter (178 hp, 195 lb-ft) with a seven-speed, dual-clutch automatic that's specific to the Eco trim.

The SE, which was a step up from the base trim last year, is the new entry-level trim, yet it still undercuts the segment with the exception of the Chevy Malibu. Its list of standard equipment includes automatic headlights, power-folding front mirrors, power windows and door locks, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, cruise control, a 60/40-split folding rear seat, a 7-inch touchscreen display, a six-speaker sound system with Bluetooth and USB/auxiliary jacks, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility, a rearview camera, and blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert. The price jump to the Eco model is just $600, which comes identically equipped save for the engine.

The next trim up is the SEL, which is a new addition to the Sonata line and an attractive trim if you don't mind the base engine. It adds larger 17-inch wheels, keyless entry and ignition, LED daytime running lights, hands-free smart trunk access, heated side mirrors, a 10-way power-adjustable driver seat, heated front seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a 4.2-inch color trip computer, satellite and HD radio, and a rear USB port. Also included is Hyundai's subscription-based Blue Link telematics system with three years of complimentary service. You can also add advanced driver aids such as adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking and lane keeping assist with the optional Tech package.

Following the SEL is the Sport trim, which isn't available with the SEL's Tech package but does come with unique Sport styling front and rear, including a front grille, rear diffuser, chrome rocker panels and a chrome-tipped dual exhaust. Inside, you get a power sunroof, which is smaller and lighter than last year's panoramic unit, a flat-bottom steering wheel with paddle shifters, a leather-wrapped shift knob, leather sport seats with cloth inserts, and Sport-specific interior trim.

You don't get any of the Sport-specific items stepping up to the Limited trim, though the sunroof remains and you gain dynamic LED headlights, LED taillights, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, full leather seats, a six-way power passenger seat, driver-seat memory settings, front-seat ventilation, dual climate control and woodgrain appearance trim. You also have the option of upgrading to the Ultimate package, which adds helpful driver aids such as automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane keeping assist, adaptive cruise control with stop-start capability, automatic high beams, an electronic parking brake with auto hold, and rear parking sensors. It also adds comfort items such as a heated steering wheel, rear side window shades, an 8-inch touchscreen navigation system, wireless smartphone charging, a premium audio system, HD real-time traffic, a trial subscription to SiriusXM Travel link (weather data, fuel prices, sports, etc.), and a three-year subscription to Blue Link multimedia/map updates.

The Sport 2.0T model is configured very similarly to the regular Sport trim, but it includes the more powerful engine and the eight-speed transmission, as well as a sport-tuned suspension, sport-tuned steering, larger front brakes and 18-inch wheels.

Topping out the Sonata line is the Limited 2.0T model, which includes everything from the Sport 2.0T model and everything else that is standard and available on all other models. Yes, you get everything with this model.

Trim tested

Each vehicle typically comes in multiple versions that are fundamentally similar. The ratings in this review are based on our full test of a (turbocharged 2.0L inline-4 | 8-speed automatic | FWD).

Driving

Power in the top-of-the-line 2.0-liter turbo engine is plentiful for a midsize family sedan, and the driving dynamics are spirited but not sporty. On the whole, it drives in a manner that the typical buyer will find satisfactory, but it doesn't change the game in any way.

Acceleration

In everyday driving, the 2.0-liter turbo engine is pleasantly responsive and smooth. It's also plenty quick. In our testing it hit 60 mph in 7.4 seconds, which is about half a second quicker than its chief rivals.

Braking

3.5

The pedal is reassuringly firm and easy to modulate in routine driving. Under heavy braking, there is some noticeable nosedive but the car remains very controllable. In our panic-brake test, it came to a stop from 60 mph in 118 feet, which is a pretty good result for midsize sedans in this class.

Steering

3.5

The amount of steering effort is appropriate throughout the speed range — suitably light at parking-lot speeds and weighting up nicely on the highway. There's not a lot of feedback to the driver, favoring isolation over involvement.

Handling

Though it doesn't exactly encourage sporty driving, the Sonata is surprisingly capable on a challenging twisty road. The well-managed body roll certainly instills confidence. And despite its low-rolling-resistance tires, there's not much screeching when cornering aggressively.

Drivability

It's easy to drive the Sonata in any condition, and it doesn't require the driver to adapt to any quirks or shortcomings. The turning circle is small enough that multipoint turns are a rarity and maneuvering in tight quarters is stress-free. Its transmission behaves as expected.

Comfort

The newly updated suspension is a big improvement over past Sonatas. There's the right dose of compliance to smooth out road imperfections yet body roll isn't excessive — a good balance of comfort and control. The front seats deliver long-haul comfort and very effective ventilation.

Seat comfort

The front seats are supportive and well-cushioned for long-distance comfort. There's a good range of lumbar adjustments and the ventilated seats do an excellent job of keeping you cool. The rear seats are flatter in shape but still comfortable for the average-size adult.

Ride comfort

Given how well the Sonata handles, the ride quality doesn't suffer. Small to moderate bumps and undulations are smoothed over gracefully with no residual motions afterward. This improvement in damping is a definite step in the right direction for Hyundai.

Noise & vibration

Wind noise is limited to a little bit of white noise by the mirrors at highway speeds, but it's really only noticeable if you turn off the stereo. Road noise is comparable to other cars in this class in its intensity.

Climate control

The layout of controls is simple and effective. Once you set the dual-zone automatic climate control, there's little need for subsequent adjustments. The ventilated front seats are particularly effective.

Interior

The cabin does the basics well, from accommodating various driver shapes to facilitating easy entry and exit. The placement of displays and controls is intuitive and easy to use. Even though this cabin isn't all-new, it still asks for fewer sacrifices than some newer sedans.

Ease of use

All of the controls are logically placed and easy to operate. Rather than rely solely on a touchscreen, the Sonata has physical buttons that are well-suited to accessing the information you need in an efficient manner.

Getting in/getting out

The big door openings and sensible ride height make getting in and out of the Sonata a breeze, even in tight spots. The sloping rear roofline does require rear passengers to stoop a little to clear it, but it's no worse than in other cars in the segment.

Driving position

The wide range of adjustability, especially with the telescoping steering wheel, allows short and tall drivers to quickly find their optimal position. Unlike some of its competition, we never felt as if we had to compromise to get comfortable.

Roominess

The Sonata conveys a spacious and airy feeling, with a decent amount of physical space in the front seats. The rear seats are also roomy, but the rear roof pillar does cut down the view a bit, yet it's far less confining than some other sedans.

Visibility

3.5

Forward visibility is about average, as is the view out the back. A standard backup camera takes the guesswork out of backing into a space. The high-mounted touchscreen helps to keep your eyes on the road.

Quality

3.5

The interior materials aren't quite as nice as some other sedans, but everything has a good sturdy feel about them. We never noticed any creaks or squeaks while driving, and all features functioned as they should.

Utility

3.5

There's little to complain about when it comes to the Sonata's everyday usability, which is aided by solid cargo capacity and no shortage of in-cabin storage options. It's as good as or better than what you'd get with the typical car in this class.

Small-item storage

3.5

The smart placement and sensible sizing of bins and pockets mean there are plenty of places to store your personal items. A grippy wireless charging pad is another example of smart design.

Cargo space

The Sonata's 16.3-cubic-foot capacity beats rivals by a small margin. Remote seatback releases make for easier loading of large items. Its hands-free trunk opener is a nice touch, but we wish it would open completely. The trunk release is hidden in the badge; we had to consult the manual to find it.

Technology

3.5

While its infotainment isn't cutting-edge, the execution is sound and well thought through. The premium audio system might leave audiophiles wanting. It's decent but not exceptional. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard features, a nice attribute that's not universal in the segment.

Audio & navigation

3.5

The on-screen buttons are well spaced out for easier and less distracting to use while on the move. Graphics are sharp and the system is fairly quick to respond. The Infinity audio system is good, but we expect more performance from a premium feature like this one.

Smartphone integration

With Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard equipment throughout the Sonata lineup, you'll have a familiar interface and more advanced music and texting features than Hyundai's system. It's not all that unusual, but it's worth noting that Toyota does not offer them.

Voice control

Voice control for the navigation and phone systems is accurate and easy to use. Apple CarPlay remains our preferred voice-controlled system because it more readily accommodates natural speech and has more features that benefit from it.

Very good, Excellent value

Joe the delivery man,11/30/2017

I got this car to replace my 2015 Sonata. Not sure the new style is better, I kind of liked the 2015 better, especially the rear with the plates on the trunk. But overall this is a terrific car for your money, save for a few drawbacks. The car drives well, nice quite ride and respectable handling, but ride is not as smooth as a Camry and handling not as good as an Accord, Mazda6, or as

Tall Guy in a Hyundai

Geoff Alderson,09/20/2017

I’m 6’ 3”, lots of headroom in this car. Easy to exit as the driver’s seat moves rearward when the engine in turned off and the shift lever is in Park. Driver’s seat also has adjustable lumbar support. Has adaptive headlights – front lights turn when steering wheel is turned. Trunk is large, plus the back seats fold down for additional room.

Great bang for the buck

Benjamin A.,01/14/2018

As much as I want to say that my new car is great in every way... It isn't. But it's extremely GOOD and very well priced. The interior materials use hard plastics in very unfortunate places (hurts to rest elbow or side of knee on door panel!), the seat bolsters aren't big enough for slippery leather, and winter traction has been downright alarming. On the other hand, the stereo has

Never put in ECO Mode

Brandywine Balladeer,03/16/2018

First of all, this is the most beautiful car I've ever owned. I got it in Symphony Silver. I absolutely love the new grill. The test drive was a charm. But somehow after I got it, for some reason it went into ECO Mode and I wondered why it almost stalled out when I tried to accelerate. Duhhh...it was starved for gasoline. The ECO mode is a huge waste and should never be on any car at

Three steps to prepare for buying a new car. So you're in the market to buy a new car. Congratulations. Very few purchases in life are more thrilling. Of course, as you know, very few purchases are more expensive. That's why you deserve to be 100% prepared before you start the car-buying process. Here are three easy steps you can take to get your game plan in order. Step 1, do your research. Use independent online sources like Edmunds to narrow down vehicle types and models that meet your needs. You can also visit automaker sites to better understand the available features and options on every vehicle. And don't forget to check dealer web sites to learn about any special offers and promotions in your area. Finally, seek out reviews from people who actually own vehicles on your list. Whether it's through online ratings and reviews, or simply through word of mouth. This is the best way to get a full download of how any vehicle performs in the real world. Step 2. Plan your trade-in and down payment strategy. If you're applying a trade-in toward your purchase, take a few minutes to use an online appraisal tool, and get a ballpark figure of how much the vehicle is worth. Be honest about its condition, including any dents, scratches, and mechanical issues. This will set your expectations for what the car is worth. And it will give you a point of reference for any offers that you receive. If you still owe money on your trade-in, call the bank to get the exact payoff amount. This will be used to calculate exactly how much equity, if any, you have in the vehicle. You may want to apply some, or all of that equity down payment. But whether your down payment comes from a trade-in, or from out-of-pocket, Edmunds recommends that you put at least 10% down on your new car purchase. Finally, step 3. Get pre-approved financing. Before you seek out any financing, it's always smart to know where your credit stands. In all likelihood, your bank or credit card company partners with a tracking service that makes it free and easy to check your credit score online. In general, a score of 710 or higher will qualify you for the best rates. Next, apply for a pre-approved loan at any bank, credit union, or online lender. Even if you don't use the financing, it will give you a strong idea for how much your monthly payments will be. Preapproval also gives you a good benchmark to compare against any dealer finance specials. In fact, there's an excellent chance that the dealer can, and will, offer better rates and terms. Now that you have your research, down payment, and financing all squared away, you can move forward confidently with the car-buying process. Now that you've laid the groundwork, it's time to start shopping like a real pro. Subscribe to our YouTube channel, and let's find your perfect car.

Hyundai Sonata vs. the competition

2018 Hyundai Sonata

2018 Hyundai Elantra

Hyundai Sonata vs. Hyundai Elantra

About 11 inches shorter than the Sonata, the Elantra is Hyundai's smaller — and less expensive — sedan. The size disparity is most noticeable inside. The Sonata carries five people in comfort, for example, while five people in the Elantra is quite cozy. That said, the Elantra distills its counterpart's quality and features into a smaller and more affordable package.

Compare Hyundai Sonata & Hyundai Elantra features

Hyundai Sonata vs. Kia Optima

This is a close race because both the Optima and Sonata are mechanically related. They share the same basic engine options, chassis structure and cabin space. But the Optima is the sportier of the two, with a slightly bolder style and firmer suspension tuning set for more dynamic driving. The Sonata, in contrast, is biased toward comfort cruising. If you want Sonata civility with extra zip, the Optima's your car.

Compare Hyundai Sonata & Kia Optima features

Hyundai Sonata vs. Toyota Camry

High build quality, a comfortable ride and reputation for reliability have helped the Camry dominate the family sedan segment for more than three decades. The Sonata lacks the Camry's long track record, but otherwise it matches up well with its dominant rival. Warranty coverage, in particular, is a Sonata advantage.

More about the 2018 Hyundai Sonata

The 2018 Hyundai Sonata is a popular choice in the midsize sedan segment because of its low cost of entry, wide range of available features, and spacious cabin and trunk. Like other Hyundai models, most of the available features are allocated within trim levels, with a few packages reserved for the upper trims. There are few, if any, stand-alone options.

The Sonata is available in seven trims: SE, Eco, SEL, Sport, Limited, Sport 2.0T and Limited 2.0T. For 2018, Hyundai decided to drop the 2017 base trim and make the SE the point of entry, which means you get more standard features than before, such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, automatic headlights and a rearview camera. Hyundai also added blind-spot detection with rear cross-traffic alert and lane change assist as standard equipment across all models. Though the SE is decently equipped, stepping up to the Eco model is a no-brainer since you get a more responsive and fuel-efficient powertrain for a marginal price increase.

The next trim up is the SEL, a new addition to the Sonata line, and a trim that will be very attractive for some. The price jump over an SE is less than $2,000, but you get a lot for your money, including keyless entry and ignition, a power-adjustable driver seat, heated front seats, satellite and HD radio, and three years of Hyundai's Blue Link telematics. Additionally, you have the choice of upgrading your advanced driver aids to include adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking and lane keeping assist, something not offered on the lower two trims.

For those who crave more luxury or a sportier experience in their Sonata, the Sport and Limited trims offer just that to varying degrees. The Sport models receive unique exterior styling treatment and come equipped with sport seats and paddle shifters mounted on flat-bottom steering wheels. Limited trims are focused more on creature comforts such as ventilated leather seating, dual automatic climate control and rear window shades; they also have access to the full suite of advanced driver aids. Either trim can be equipped with the base engine or the top-of-the-line turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Bear in mind, though, that if you're going for the top-shelf Limited 2.0T model, you're now in compact luxury car territory.

Compared to the competition, Hyundai does an excellent job of providing value at every trim level, usually coming in at a lower price with equal or more features. And the trims available in the Sonata make it possible to pay for just the things you need or want. You can compare the Sonata to the other top players in the midsize segment easily, right here on Edmunds, and make that judgment call for yourself.

Should I lease or buy a 2018 Hyundai Sonata?

Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
