Sleeper of a sports car hidden in a Sonata?

I want to start off by saying BUY THIS CAR IF YOU CAN FIND IT! This is my 4th Sonata purchased in the last 16 years, we liked the cars, but they were boring, so we sold the last 3 over the years. I needed a good commuter car for the next 6-9 months till retirement. We found a dealer about 90 miles from us, and test drove the 2022 Sonata N-Line...I only needed a short test drive to be sold on this car. The ride is tight, but not overly stiff, great Bose system that will take a few hours to break in the speakers, purchased the 1 single available option summer tires $200. The Sonata has driving assist that will keep you centered during long commutes, borderline self-steering, (you have to keep touching the wheel around 30 seconds) Driving on the highway is a dream in Normal mode the car is a great family vehicle with great seats...Now for the fun stuff in Sport mode the Sonata comes out of its shell to hang with some of the sportier cars in its class, traction control is engaged, and the steering is stiffer, and the exhaust gets louder. Sport plus you are on your own, traction control is off, car gets even louder (how is this possible?) 0-60 in 5.2 seconds.... not bad for a car around $35,000. top speed for the Sonata is about 150 mph REALLY!!!! So far, my only complaint is they should have an AWD option in the future. Hyundai's Hidden Gem the Sonata N-Line...BUY

A very good automobile for a very good price

5 months ago I purchased a 2021 Hyundai Sonata. I’m first going to list some of the drawbacks. I’m not a huge fan of the spoiler fin in the back. It has however grown on me a little . The seats are a little hard and I would have preferred more cushion. I would have liked a little more acceleration from from first to second gear, but that’s not a huge issue for me. Ok, now on to the positive aspects of this car. First , the price is relatively cheap for the car you get. It looks like a more expensive car, maybe 10 grand more. The exterior , especially front and side is beautifully designed with sharp lines . The front headlights are very sharp and sporty. A very attractive car . The interior is very spacious , front and back seats. A tall person will be comfortable . The interior fabric and dashboard are of good quality and physically attractive . It is a technologically good car, particularly the safety features ! When you are inside you feel like you are protected in the event of a crash . The engine is relatively quiet and it offers a smooth ride. The handling for a large car is actually surprisingly good , with a good turn ratio. The A.C. Unit is very good , and blows out very cold air ! Better than most cars. It isn’t a gas guzzler and with gas prices going up, that’s one criteria important to me . I used to drive Toyota’s but honestly this car is up there with the Camry if truth be told. I’m a tough critic , but this car doesn’t disappoint. Over all I would highly encourage any potential buyers to get inside and give it a test drive. I think you will be pleasantly surprised . I know I was !!

With all the bells and whistles you could ask for and more. The drive makes you feel like your floating on air. I love this car.

The vehicle is a great car to drive, the interior is silky smooth, the sound system is awesome and the way the body lines are is sexy. However, the reliability of this car has disappointed me. The car has only 10,000 miles and i have been informed it needs a new transmission. A couple months before this, I needed to get the water pump replaced because it malfunctioned as well, causing my engine to tell me it’s overheating. It’s a sad story that must end because of mechanical issues. So much potential with this vehicle, and I am really disappointed in the quality that has been put out by Hyundai.

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.
