I purchased the Phantom Gray .. very pretty color and kinda looks like black with speckles. Nice smooth ride, easy to handle on the road. Its been about 2.5 years later and its still running smoothly. I have no complaints about this car except I wish Hyundai would have the passenger seat able to adjust like the drivers seat. Its kinda silly to have adjustments on just the drivers side unless you pay extra for it. It should be standard.

I drove this model for about 1700 miles across very different places in California, a rental. It surely compares well against western cars, but they do not set the standards, even the luxury ones. My own car is a Kia 2019, it has very similar mileage, same comfort but much better technology. This sonata model safety features is a like a nagging girlfriend or mom rushing to start moving when the car ahead start moving when the stop lights turn green, which is not really the safest and best choice. It won't stop "suggesting" to stop to relax for a coffee break after driving like a hundred miles, which would not relax me at all as the night falls or the day just passes by, things to do, while I would just be sitting drinking coffee in some place I never cared to stop. Have no idea why that'd be relaxing. Lazy people may well like that, which there are plenty of. That's all the safety features I noticed in the car. My Kia doesn't nagg. Instead, it has very useful side lights in the mirrors warning about incoming vehicles in the blind spots. Sonata was unable to connect to my iPod, I had to connect my iPod a radio interfering device, which obviously did not work in most places. A lot of fun screwed. My Kia, and former Honda cars, do connect well to devices. It would've been a nightmare to buy this brand new car of moderate price just to get a naggy junk that does not do what I want or would like to get, instead just naggs on and on.

Seems to be a typical Hyundai (I've owned several and I loved them until now), well built, incredible fuel milage, but poor technology. I'm not sure who decided "Car play" was a good idea (cell phone reception never fails, right?) and the "Smart Cruise Control" is probably the worst system I have ever had the misfortune to have on an automobile. Bends on bridges on country roads and the car slams on the brakes because it thinks the railings are stopped vehicles. If someone straddles the lines in front of you even when there is plenty of room, the car looses it mind. Beeping, braking, messages flashing all over the dash board. Nothing like distracting you with unnecessary warnings during the time you should be paying the most attention. I have been driving for over 40 years, including over a million accident free commercial miles. The safety features in this car are designed for poor drivers, and I suppose for them it works well enough but for anyone who enjoys driving, those same features are a disaster. Pleas, please, please set things up so this junk can be turned off.
