Exterior
hyundai has continued their "fluidic" design philosophy with the new sonata , turning it from a boxy and quite understated design from the previous generation ,to what can only be described as possibly one of the best looking cars in its segment.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
sonata is quite well equipped with paking sensors , reverse camera,traction control,retracting,rear AC.hyundai has worked a lot in making sonata a good place to be in and it has succeeded in that also.its eally comfortable to be in.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
hyundai has decided to launch sonata with only a 2.4 litre petrol gdi engine which i think might be the only shortcoming of a wonderful product as the indian mindset has literally given up thinking a petrol engine.while coming back to petrol engine its quite punchy and torquey with 249 kgm of torque at 4250 rpm.while really the gearboxes are fun which include a 6 manual and 6 auto.
Ride Quality & Handling
it has a really sharp steering and overtaking is a breeze an exhilarative package
Final Words
vw jeta , skoda laura beware becoz here is a real executive sedan.
Areas of improvement
looks,space,boot, ride quality ,interior finish
outlandish looks,powerful engine,spacious boot,chrome workonly available in petrol,too much styling in interior,poor plastics.
