Distinctive styling and a great value

2021 Hyundai Sonata SEL Plus 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl Turbo 8A)
4 of 4 people found this review helpful

To begin, I wanted something with style and character, not a generic car. I also did not want to drive an SUV. The Sonata, particularly the SEL Plus with the Technology Package is am amazing deal when you consider all of the features and technology that comes with the car. The car turns heads and my friends cannot believe how far Hyundai has come. It also get up to 39 MRG on the highway, so I am really pleased with my purchase.

Medium Quality sedan with Cheap electronics

2021 Hyundai Sonata SE 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl 8A)

I have the non turbo 2.5. The car seems sluggish on the low end. The radio is malfunctioning at 6K miles and displays an HD station when there is none. The sound seems weak. I could not get the Bose because I did not want the Turbo. A cars warranty is only good if Hyundai would Honors it. As of now Hyundai refuses to fix My radio in My 6-month-old Car. I bought the car New.

From the first day I traded my 2020 Sonata for a 2021 sel Granted I saved $40 a month but whenever it rained the cars anti-collision control system would try to stop the car not fun in Florida while doing 60 on the highway and running into a thunderstorm. I went through the lemon Law process and waiting for the buyback price from Hyundai! Been in a rental since 8/30 now 2/6

This car truly stands out in offering pure safety features as well as good looks, Hyundai did it again with this most recent style redo, I loved my 2017 Sonata Sport Tech Package, but my new 2021 SEL With the Convenience package is another home run
