![]() ![]() During our time with the Sonata hybrid, which pairs a turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder with a motor-generator that combine for 192 horses, we appreciated its fuel-saving efforts but disliked how it didn't smoothly transition between gas and electric power sources. Much of the class has gone over to droning (but efficient) continuously variable automatic transmissions (CVTs). We'd also like to commend Hyundai for continuing to offer a conventional automatic transmission in its family sedan. The shifts from the eight-speed automatic are smooth and well-timed. During our testing, a Sonata with that powertrain made it to 60 mph in 7.1 seconds-an acceptable result in this class. The ride is a little more unsettled than we'd like and firmer than most cars in this category, but the Sonata is at least reasonably quick with its turbocharged 1.6-liter engine. ![]() The Sonata is not the sharpest handler in its class-we like the Accord and the Nissan Altima better-but it's still composed and responsive on the road. It adds a 12-speaker Bose stereo, a 10.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a panoramic sunroof, and a semi-autonomous drive mode. We'd option our preferred Sonata with the Tech package, too. It also features a 12.3-inch fully digital gauge cluster, leatherette and microsuede upholstery, back-seat air vents and USB port, and wireless charging.
