What Hyundai Sonata do most buyers choose?

The Hyundai Sonata years with the most listings are 2024, 2025, and 2023.

Higher-volume years usually give you more choices, which makes it easier to compare trims, mileage, and condition. They also tend to be the years shoppers cross-shop most often, so you can usually find a broader mix of prices and deal quality.

What is the Hyundai Sonata's resale value?

Most Sonata model years are down year over year, which can work in your favor if you’re shopping used. The biggest drops are concentrated in several newer and mid-cycle years, while a few years are changing more slowly and therefore appear to be holding value better.

The 2023, 2017, and 2020 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

Consider waiting if:

• Powertrain/efficiency: The Sonata’s base 191-horsepower, 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine is unremarkable, although it does offer all-wheel drive (AWD) as an option for SEL models – all other Sonata and Sonata Hybrids have front-wheel drive (FWD).
