Great car, Great Value.

The Sonata was the my top choice. The great discounts offered made my decision even easier. The Sonata is more comfortable, quieter, and loaded with much more tech than Accord, Camry or Legacy. After two years, I have had zero issues with my car.

Headlights

Good vehicle except for headlights. I feel since I was a woman complaining about the lights it was dismissed. This happened at every dealership I called. I investigated online and I'm certainly not alone with the problem this within it's self is a problem. As I'm bringing it up again you would think it would be fixed.

2018 Hyundai Sonata

Great styling, good fuel economy, good engine performance. I like the headroom and the heated seats on long drives. I have an intermittent problem with the entertainment screen going blank when using the map feature. I dislike the plastic cover on the back of the front seats.

Sonata 2.0T Sport

This vehicle has exceeded my expectations. It has dark black leather interior that has stood the test of time. I have had no issues with the sunroof or its motor. I currently have 60,000 miles on it and have yet to have any motor issues. Since I drove out of the dealership, the only items done are oil changes. I love the sport feel of this vehicle and the traction of the tires. I recently replaced the tires for a more ground hugging effect and the vehicle drives even better. I

Review of my 2018 Sonata

The Sonata has a nice ride. I like the look of the vehicle. I'm not impressed with the remote start feature. It keeps malfunctioning. I'm very disappointed with the plastic housing on the dide of the Driver's Seat that kerps on breaking. Poorly made and not designed for heaviet people. This is the second time that it's broken. I don't want to have to pay for poor or inferior parts.

Sonata review

Great electronics and gas mileage. The rear wheel bearings are making noise between 50-60 miles per hour and sounds louder when you let off the gas petal. I almost forgot about the huge blindspot over the drivers shoulder. I know that you have lane sensors but they kick in slow slow on a quicker lane change, otherwise everything else seems ok.

My Trade In

This vehicle was great from day one. It was a comfortable yet fun car to drive. It has an amazing amount of power and spunk. The seating is roomy and comfortable even for my 6ft son in law when he sits in the back. I never had any mechanical issues which is why I opted to purchase the same vehicle in the latest model.

Excellent Value

Fun car with excellent value for the money. The acceleration with the 2.0T is as good or better than our previous Sonata with the V6. The assisted driving features make any commute more relaxing and fun.

My first Sonata

The 2018 Hyundai Sonata offers good value for money. It is equipped with excellent safety features such as touch screen system, rear camera detection warning and blind spot warning. However there are a few kinks to work out such as the knock sensor, volume button on the steering wheel and trunk latch.

Ruby 'RiRi' Red Sonata

My Sonata is very comfortable. I feel safe when driving on highways and througt the city. My RiRi is equipped with Turbo and it's a Limited Edition. I appreciate the high end features e.g., leather seats and steering wheel that can be heated or cooled. Everyday I'm discovering new safety features. I'm enjoying a fast sedan again after leasing a SUV for 3 years.

Sonata limited

Great car! My family really loves it the back seat is roomie bigger than the Honda Accord. It drives great and love the features. The warranty is great can’t go wrong with that. I highly recommend this car for families. Especially if you want a big sedan and not a van.

Looks, comfort, and features - A great value!

I purchased a 2018 Sonata early in the year. In November, I hit a deer on the interstate at 70 Mph. The car was a complete loss. My son and I walked away with no injury. I promptly purchased the same model to replace it. I originally purchased it because it had the interior features and technology I was looking for and offered good fuel economy. I commute about 40,000 miles a year, comfort and mileage are important. With over a year of driving and over 55k miles behind the wheel, I am still satisfied.

2018 Sonata

Overall very pleased with this car which is both comfortable and safe. It's my first mid sized car and a real pleasure compared to the tiny cars of my past. I do wish it were a wagon for hauling purposes but can't have everything. However I hope wagons come back in style.

Poor

This vehicle's engine, starter, tire safety is unreliable and has proven unsafe. I purchased a lemon and the company's and car dealership response has been very highly unsatisfactory and proven to have unethical business practices.

Amazing Car!

I bought a 2018 Sonata off the showroom floor. Besides being a beautiful combination of colors (pearl white exterior, black interior with blue accent stitching), this car is awesome. My gas mileage is the envy of my friends, and I can drive it all the way to Florida and back without my back hurting. Back seat is comfy for extra passengers and the trunk is really usable! The sound system is excellent and I love my sunroof. I chose this brand after my parents bought one and kept raving about it, and I have not been disappointed at all.

Great styling, handling and fuel economy. Passengers in rear seat have mentioned how noisy it is back there when highway driving. I absolutely love the front grill design, as well as the sharp, emphatic lines on the sides
