N line lemon

Had a 2023 n line Hyundai Sonata delivered January 25, 2023. Now has 2200 miles on it. Also dropped off at dealership last night for the 3rd time to get fixed for the same problem. Transmission light on and not changing gears. Car has been in shop with the long repair wait times longer then in my garage since buying.
Unexpected performance in a nicely styled package

IThis is my first Hyundai and I am blown away. I've owned Hondas, Fords and Volvos. I've been familiar with the brand since they were introduced in the U.S. The promise of cheap transportation was what gave them a foothold in the market. Well, they kept improving their product and offering models with the latest technology and with designs that are fresh. I recently purchased the '22 Sonata N Line and I am thoroughly impressed. The performance this car delivers is mind blowing. 290 hp and the torque you'd expect from a truck. The fit and finish of the materials inside is excellent. But, it's the value of the complete package that I found impressive. You get and awful lot for your money. 19' wheels, panoramic sunroof, great seats with bolsters that a NASCAR drive would appreciate. This is a gorgeous car. I was looking at different brands and models and when I saw the '22 Sonata and read about the N Line package, I quickly decided to go out and get it. We literally purchased the only one available in NH at the time. And the color, Portofino Gray, is very classy. Immediately after the purchase we go for a longer drive than the test drive. It just got better and better. The Pirelli P Zero tires are fantastic. The power when in Sport mode is amazing. In Sport +, which disables the traction control, you will get some wheel spin if you get heavy on the pedal. The steering tightens up and the suspension stiffens. It becomes an entirely different car. It just seems to have endless power and traction. I still can't believe I am this impressed with a Hyundai Sonata. The only downside of the purchase is that it it's my wife's car. I don't get to drive it every day... I'm thinking about getting one for myself now...

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

Not what I expected

I bought my 2023 in February of this year and in July it quit on the road. It took weeks to get it back and now I keep getting notifications of the front collision is not turned on. I hope to not have more problems but I think I just might. Also, my driver side seat belt won't lock. I had the same problem with my 2019. When I take it in to the shop they don't see a problem. Thats not a good look for Hyundai.
