It’s no secret that Hyundai has sought to trounce Toyota in the cutthroat business of mid-size family sedans. With the 2009 Hyundai Sonata, they may not have won the war but they’ve certainly won this particular battle. Their goal of conservative yet stylish bodies that encase reliable and comfortable cars is epitomized in the original Hyundai Sonata.
This year, Hyundai has made only minor updates to the exterior of the Sonata but has crafted an all new, upscale interior cabin reminiscent of the Lexus. A unusual center stack, the center console and the gauges have been redesigned to look elegant and up to date yet user-friendly. Wood grain accents tasteful color combinations and alloy trim. You’ll only find the leather wrapped shift knob on the V-6 but on it and all other models you’ll see a tilt steering column, leather wrapped steering wheel, six speaker stereo system with CD and MP3 player, 60/40 split rear seatback, auxiliary audio jack and satellite radio. You’ll have options like an 8-way power driver’s seat; steering wheel mounted audio controls and a trip computer.
Under the hood you’ll find that Hyundai has given the Sonata more power while raising fuel economy, a winning combination even if gasoline wasn’t bouncing up and down like a tennis ball. The GLS and SE contain the 2.4 liter, 4 cylinder, 175 horsepower engine with a 5 urge manual transmission. The Limited edition will come standard with a 5 speed automatic transmission. Whichever model you choose, you can opt for the 3.3 liter, V-6 249 horsepower engine with a 5 speed automatic. The MPG ratings are impressive; 22/32 on the 4 cylinder and 19/29 for the 6 cylinder.
As for the quality of the ride experience, you’ll pick up very few cards that give you a smoother, cloud-like ride than the Hyundai Sonata. You’ll get competitive acceleration; you won’t be scorching the pavement but it has the get up and go you need for fast freeway entrances. The Sonata is very responsive to driver commands, has precise handling and corners nicely with very small body roll due to superb suspension.
The Sonata has anti-lock brakes, stability and traction control, front seat side impact bags, full length side curtain bags and active front head restraints. It earned 5 out of 5 stars with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety’s highest rating in break tests.
