Holy cow - what a surprise!

My first hybrid sedan after being spoiled with a full size luxury ICE sedan. I drove and considered the top 4 ranked hybrids and chose the Sonata Limited for value, tech features, comfort and mileage. BEST CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED. I am shocked at how good Hyundai has done with their cars - and my dealer experience has been more impressive than Lexus in the 90’s. If you are looking for a hybrid sedan - drive this car.

MIGHT FLY ON HIGHWAY

The tech features for the price are impressive, but the ride quality and use of lower-grade plastic are noticeable. It tends to drift at speeds above 65 mph, and it's not suitable for challenging weather due to its lightweight build. Driving in rainy or stormy conditions is risky, and the engine power is lacking. I'm disappointed with this Sonata model, especially considering how exceptional the previous generation was.

Gotcha!! Is what they did to me

I have had several leases with hyundai in the last 5 years and need to start learning how to say NO when I return a vehicle. The steering wheel is absolutely brutal on this sedan. My hands ache and are exhausted after 3 miles of driving. I can’t wait to get out of the vehicle. The gear placement in this 2024 Sonata may be the dumbest piece of engineering I have seen. You need to turn the steering wheel and look for the gears. Hyundai sells this for $29k?? I expected more from this company. The car is extremely over-priced and everything about looks and is cheap. The key fob may be sold at the dollar store if you happen to lose the one you have. I am pretty much done with Hyundai. Will be shifting all my business over to Mazda. You get better vehicles for less cost.

Not the 2021 Sonata

I traded in a 2021 Sonata Limited. It had features that are no longer available with the 2024 Sonata Hybrid. There is no spare tire. They expect you to repair the tire leak with a kit they provide...pathetic! There is no rear view mirror that has buttons on it that opens the garage door...pathetic. The Navigation system does not even come close to the one that was on the 2021 Sonata. They have deleted many of the good options so they could keep the price reasonable...they are not reasonable...my next car will be a Toyota Crown...period!

Hyundai Sonata Hybrid Limited

So far the car performs above expectations. Quiet ride, smooth driving, and the electronics are out of this world. The LED light across the dashboard and driver and passenger side doors are sweet at night. Head Up Display is very convenient and assists with safe driving with speed, cars left and right notice, sign identification, speed notice, and navigation all in the head up display. Leather is a great touch. Heated/Cooling Seats, Remote starting, and led lights in the front and rear. Side mirror notification and camera when utilizing the blinkers. This car has everything. You will not be disappointed.
