Unique styling with great feature set and tech

2022 Hyundai Sonata SEL 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl 8A)

Purchased a 2022 Sonata SEL. The styling can be polarizing but I think it has a great look from most angles. The SEL is the sweet spot in the Sonata line. You get the unique daytime running lights, auto air, power driver's seat, heated seats and the full Hyundai safety suite including radar cruise. It rides well, is quiet and has plenty of power with the NA engine. (fuel economy is also good at 27/37 mpg EPA). You even get a real spare tire! Highly recommended. If your plan on purchasing this vehicle do so quickly as the 2023 SEL sticker is increasing by $1225! The only change I can see is an upgrade from the 8" MMI to the 10.25 ". Most Sonatas are currently built in Korea, the Kia K5 is built in the USA.

I am more of a tech guy and all the bells and whistles in this car makes me smile everytime I drive. Before this, I had a 2020 Accord Sport and material quality on that was better but this car’s tech is on another level.

2022 Sonata SEL 2.5L

This Sonata SEL is what ever you want it to be, it's classy, sporty, economical, comfortable seats (ignore professional reviewers). I've had this Sonata for over 10 months and driven it Michigan Upper Peninsula and to the southern Gulf of Mexico twice and averaged 38 to 42 miles per gallon on highway, I now have 14,000 miles on it now. Sonata is easy to drive and don't get tired driving it. Nice cruiser! If you want one don't settle for "SE" a little bit more $, get the "SEL". I would avoid the 1.6 Liter Turbo Engine because of reliability later in vehicle life and not much difference in Power to the 2.5 liter 4 (MPI/GDI) (UPDATE 7-23-24) 41,000 miles so far, NO Problems or Issues. Changing oil/filter every 5,000 miles
