Overview & Reviews

For 2007, Hyundai has shuffled the Sonata's trim levels. GLS replaces the previous GL moniker and Limited takes the place of LX. Hyundai has also introduced a new sporty SE trim. Later in the model year, a tire-pressure monitor and XM radio become standard across the line.

• Upscale look and feel, refined performance with V6, smooth ride, roomy cabin, standard stability control, attractive value and warranty coverage.

• Steering somewhat vague, automatic transmissions are fussy in manual-shift mode, heated seats on the weak side.

  Great Value - couple of small issues - 2007 Hyundai Sonata
  By jack4120 - July 9 - 3:53 pm

  I got an SE with s/r, upgraded stereo w/6cd and power seat. Car runs great with 2 minor issues. Occasional clunking sound in rear over bumpy roads, dealer said this will stop after break in. The clunking is not noticeable when the radio is on but it bugs me a little. The 2nd issue is very irritating. The steering wheel audio controls do not allow you to chg radio stations ??? what is that? It makes zero sense... but overall, very happy.

  Great Car - 2007 Hyundai Sonata
  By Jocelyn - June 23 - 7:36 pm

  I have had my Sonata for about a year now and love it. The only problems that I have had were my brake lights went out (covered by a recall) and my visors would not stay up, apparently this is a common problem. But when I took it in to the dealership today, there were no questions asked and my car is fixed. Air conditioning is awesome! I live in Scottsdale and it gets HOT! My car is black and it cools off in no time. The pickup is great, and it is a very smooth ride. I have XM capability, just havent signed up for the service. And of course, the safety features are awesome. I think most unexpected was if there is an engine fire, the inside of the hood drops and smothers the fire!

  By Barry in Florida - June 22 - 11:30 pm

  Have the Sonata for two months. Im past the 1000 mile break in period. The car has a solid, sportier feel than my previous car- a Camry. On a recent 500 mile trip, the cars trip computer says we averaged 31.2 mpg. Thats with two adults and luggage. This was interstate driving.

  Update from 1/28/09 - 2007 Hyundai Sonata
  By cmwolff - June 22 - 7:51 am

  My Hyundai now has almost 30,000 miles on it. The engine knock has not returned, and they replaced the rear struts for me for free. All I had to do is mention it, and it was fixed. It seems to be getting better gas mileage all the time. I recently got 31.7 miles to the gallon on a 200 mile trip. Overall I am very happy with my car.

  Great Car - 2007 Hyundai Sonata
  By afterburner - June 1 - 6:01 pm

  I have a 2007 Sonata GLS, and I am glad I got this car rather than an Accord or Camry. Excellent ride quality, superb stereo, good air conditioning and best of all the SHIFTRONIC transmission which allows me to shift into manual mode whenever I drive. Any day the suspension is better than a camry or accord. Spare parts are cheap and I buy them online. Warranty on the car is best in the industry . Fortunately nothing has gone wrong till date. Since reliability is a problem with older Hyundai’s I run my car on Pennzoil Fully Synthetic Engine oil, with a K&N oil filter and synthetic transmission oil. Resale value is a problem in the car, but I am positive that Hyundai will do well.

  1 year review - 2007 Hyundai Sonata
  By James - May 11 - 5:10 am

  Review: 10 months, 10,000 miles, relatively heavy-footed and agressive driving style. If curb appeal is your thing, this is definitely your car. My metallic-beige LmtEd draws glowing comments (inside and out) everywhere it goes. Power and refinement remain excellent as well. In a recent 2000 mile trip I rarely cruised at below 80 MPH, often hit 100 effortlessly, and topped out at 120 for one memorable 45 minute stretch. Nitpicks: The handling is somewhat mushy. The car needs a performance handling option. The mileage could be better. I know, I drive too fast. The steering wheel stereo controls could incorporate MANY more features using only the same amount of buttons.

  Excellent! - 2007 Hyundai Sonata
  By kinger75002 - April 16 - 9:17 am

  For under $20k you get the comfort of a $35k car without the frills. Great gas mileage as well, I get 480-490 miles per tank. I chose the 4 cylinder over the V6, because I literally couldnt feel the difference or see the difference from a highway speed perspective. I drive 120 miles per work day and I couldnt be more happier with this machine. Excellent Car!
