The vehicle is amazing. I took it to get inspected and it only needed front breaks! So I couldn't be happier with it especially for the price!Apr 12, 2026

This car was terrible. Took to my mechanic and it has major problems and not worth 1000.00. My overall rating of car is 0.Apr 27, 2025

This is my second Sonata. The first was a Hybrid, lots of interior features, heated seats etc. This one is a GLS, a pretty basic car. While the features dont impress me, I bought it because of the low mileage, just under 69,000.May 18, 2023

Worst car ever lots of electrical problems. If you own one check your taillights I guarantee you they are out on both sides or the driver side. Mar 02, 2023

We are very happy with our 2013 Hyundai Sonata! It is in great condition and a great price. Gas mileage has been a plus!Nov 11, 2022

The features were great…, in fact, I only went to go see it because it was a limited version so fully loaded. Plus, The real attraction was the 28 mpg. The sunroof, and leather are nice, plus I like the keyless entry, push to start, proximity keys, and radio controls / cruise control on the steering wheel. It had it all. So, with no rust under the carriage, and a reliability rating of 4.5 out of 5 I bought it. Fingers crossed!

This car is one of the best cars Ive owned. Its a very smooth ride for an older vehicle and I have the 2.0 turbo, so its really fast and fun. The only thing Im not a fan of is it does have loud cabin noise, but its not the worst offender that Ive encountered. My Sonata has black leather seats, both front and back seats are heated, Bluetooth, and a really awesome sound system (Infinity). Great car!Apr 14, 2022

Three years ago I rented a 2012 Sonata for a trip. After spending a week with the car, I knew that I would eventually buy one. That finally happened about four months ago. With the help of Car Gurus, I found a great deal on a 2013 Sonata at a dealership near my home.
The vehicle handles very well, and it has decent acceleration. The brakes are strong. The ride is good and noise levels are not bad. I have been averaging fuel economy in the mid 30s with a mix of city and highway driving. The seats are comfortable and interior fit and finish is good. The vehicle came with loads of features, such as power windows and locks, cruise control, USB port, Bluetooth and satellite ready radio.
My issues with this vehicle are more annoyances than problems. At times I cannot set the cruise control unless I press the cancel button and hold it for 5-10 seconds. I have also had issues with screen freezes on the sound system when it is playing CDs.Sep 16, 2015

I love this car, it's great in every aspect. Great on gas, even as a turbo. And low cost maintenance. Never had a single issue with it. The rims add to the sleek style of the car. And it sounds great!May 24, 2015

This car is a luxury sedan with tons of room but has many of the handling characteristics of a sports car. It also has a fold down rear seat to allow for that extra cargo capacity. I feel perfectly safe putting my wife and kids in this comfortable, safe car.Mar 04, 2015

This is a great car all around. It gets great gas milage but also has plenty of get up and go. The cargo space is great and the back seat is comfortable. I really have no complaints with this car. Nov 28, 2014

Great handling, very good acceleration. Stops very short distance. Nice styling. I always feel safe driving this car!! MPG in the city could be better, as I usually get 25 in the city and 32 highway. The back seat 60/40 release latch are located in the trunk and a bit awkward to keep unlatched before pushing both seats down but its doable.Nov 09, 2014

Superb car. Great fuel economy. Spacious trunk and cabin. Impressive acceleration . Reliability. Attractive design and has most modern conveniences; MP3,Bluetooth, USB.
The Hyundais retain their value and from what I've seen as reliable as their Japanese counterparts. On the mark on all levels!Sep 10, 2014

Exceeds my expectations on almost all levels! Can satisfy the family sedan needs, techier
Need and a good amount for those looking for good performance too!
I'll admit I wasn't a Hyundai person prior to inheriting this vehicle but now I am convinced they're more than legit.Sep 08, 2014

This car is fun and easy to drive. It runs smoothly and is a gas saver. I average about 30-32 miles per gallon on a tank of gas with a good mixture of city/highway driving. Truly a great car! Apr 22, 2014

The perfect car if you want a great handling, spacious family vehicle. I'm a loyal Hyundai owner, and decided to trade up to the Sonata, and I'm very happy with the car! Beautiful, sleek, handles well, and great on gas. Recommended to all!Nov 26, 2013

Not a bad all around car, this is the first full size sedan i have owned and so far i must say its impressed me, i do miss the cargo of the SUV however the trunk space is suprisingly large for its size. and can handle quite the loadApr 12, 2013

Great styling and comfortable for large and small drivers. After 45,000 miles, still running well and great fuel economy. Huge trunk space. Most other cars I researched in this price range did not have the nice appointments. I hope to keep this car for another 100,000 miles.Aug 15, 2012

First of all, i'd like to say it's missing a pedal. Argh... A new car....
Sorry, they replaced it by shift paddles. Oh, yeah, a new toy !!
Performance wise, nice ride, smooth shifting in auto mode (will shift around 2000 rpm). Will shift at 5900 rpm when kicking the floor (still in auto) ........uhm.... start being interesting ....
Nice looking, the 18 inches wheels make the difference. Double pipes exhaust. Fine leather, really updraded for 2011.
Good front seats for that type of car, something i'm really looking at when i buy a car. Also realy impress by rear ones with plenty of room for the legs. I'm 6 feet tall and i'm driving with seat all the way back.
To get same, you would need to pay 10k $ more for a Japanese car, 20k $ more for a German one or pay same for an American one and....... no comments.
USB hard to reach espacially at night, would have placed an LED to help locate the port. In dash CD changer useless (got an 16Gb USB key !!)Jul 01, 2011
