2011 Hyundai Sonata is an Impressive Car
The 2011 Hyundai Sonata is an impressive car for the price and it is a midsize family sedan that has a lot to offer. This 2011 Hyundai Sonata is a pleasure to drive and is packed with a lot of good features. The previous Sonata was a solid contender, but for 2011, the Hyundai Sonata vaults itself to the top of the class.
This Hyundai 2011 Sonata pictures looks a lot more expensive than it actually is. It has a nice sleek exterior and a nice interior as well also has extras like an iPod interface and also a nice speaker system. There is also plenty of room for passengers to enjoy the ride in the Sonata.
The 2011 Hyundai Sonata is available in GLS, SE and Limited trim levels. Engine choices for the new 2011 Sonata include a 2.4-liter inline-4 or a 2.0-liter turbocharged variant. The base engine is really all most buyers will ever need, as it makes a robust 198 horsepower (200 in the 2011 Hyundai Sonata SE trim) and returns a thrifty 26 mpg combined when matched to a six-speed automatic.
In addition, to delivering both brisk performance and high fuel mileage, this drivetrain exhibits a refined demeanor. The Hyundai Sonata 2011 turbo ramps up performance with 274 hp and amazingly returns nearly identical combined fuel economy. All of this is even more impressive when you consider that the 2011 Sonata is one of just two cars in its segment (the Accord is the other) roomy enough to be deemed a “large” sedan by the EPA. It also boasts improvements in driving dynamics to give it a tauter, more composed feel.
Although the 2011 Hyundai Sonata not quite up to the sport sedan bar of the Ford Fusion Sport, Nissan Altima and Mazda 6 as well as other 2011 Hybrid cars as Hyundai also released the Hyundai Hybrid version of the Sonata. The Hyundai 2011 Sonata SE trim’s sport-tuned suspension helps the Sonata inch up closer to that bar, but in the process, the ride gets a little too rough.
Examining the 2011 Hyundai Sonata
Inside, there’s more usable room than ever, and it’s finished in an agreeable way, though we’d love to see softer seats and a little less gloss black plastic. The 2011 Sonata steering could use some more refinement in feel, too. It works great in sweeping turns, but wanders a touch on some highway surfaces.
While they’re at it, Hyundai needs to buckle down on the Hyundai 2011 Sonata interior noise. One of the Hyundai Sonata problems is on the asphalt roads; the 2011 Hyundai Sonata low rolling resistance tires generate lots of noise, overpowering even the good mid-level speakers.
You’ll probably overlook those Hyundai Sonata problems given the 2011 Hyundai Sonata extremely smart pricing. The 2011 Hyundai Sonata can be had for less than $20,000—and comes with USB, Bluetooth, and satellite radio. The 2011 Hyundai Sonata turbo version adds more than 80 horsepower, but only raises the price to about $25,000 base.
The Hyundai Hybrid version of the Sonata will earn around 39-40 mpg in highway driving—with a base price of about $26,000, not much more than the much smaller Honda Civic Hybrid. The fact that this 2011 Hyundai Sonata also has many safety features will just give you even more reasons to purchase it. It comes with anti lock brakes, stability control, and traction control. You can rest assured that this 2011 Sonata puts safety as one of its top priorities.
