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.

  Very Impressed! - 2007 Hyundai Sonata
  By Tom - October 20 - 6:53 pm

  Test drove Civic, Camry, Accord and nothing came close to matching the value of the Sonata. Everything you need is standard at a better price than the others. Also much easier to make a good deal at the dealership. Huge amount of safety features standard, the trunk is huge, and it kind of looks like an Audi or Acura TL from the front and the side and rides like them too. The best warranty is just icing on the already great cake!

  Excellent car-Keep the good work Hyundai - 2007 Hyundai Sonata
  By Hector - October 18 - 11:06 pm

  The car rides very quietly, accelerates well merging into traffic. Flawless, unnoticeable speed shifts in automatic and incredibly smooth shifting from auto to manual. Car can be downshifted to 3rd gear in a mile+ small grade downhill and will keep 2000 rpm and 40 miles per hour without using the brakes. All the cars around me were riding the brakes. At the end of the hill, one forward push and the car goes back to 4rd gear without hesitation and a medial push of the transmission lever and is back to Auto mode. The trunk is deceiving when looked from ouside but open the trunk and 16 cubic feet of space are ready for any trip planned. The back seats are foldable and very comfortable.

  Great while it lasted - 2007 Hyundai Sonata
  By Lyn - October 16 - 4:26 pm

  Bought my 2007 sonata new. It was a phenomenal car. great gas mileage no issues for years. but when they start they dont stop. Last week spent 200 for a/c maint. now it has trouble starting. Diagnostic tests say nothing wrong. Sometimes get in it turns right over. other times it wont. Door handle on the drivers side fell off in my hand. Rear window motor died.

  Wonderful vehicle - 2007 Hyundai Sonata
  By Enfurno - September 27 - 7:26 pm

  I absolutely love my Sonata. It is fun and exhilarating to drive. Performance is definitely there, comfort is top notch, and the features are second to none for the price that you pay for this wonderful machine. Not too mention it is the best looking sedan on the road today. If you are thinking about the Sonata and comparing it to other sedans then stop and buy right now because no other sedan even compares.

  Happy with 2007 Sonata - 2007 Hyundai Sonata
  By Winston SAnders - July 27 - 10:50 pm

  I have been driving a 1988 BMW 735i since 1988. Also, own 1987 Toyota Supra, wife drives Cadillac CTS -- sometimes I get to drive . The last American brand car I owned was a 1986 Mercury Capri with 5 litre V8. I do not buy, or drive ordinary cars. The car is made in my home state of Alabama in the worlds most advanced assembly plant. I was sold on the car immediately after a test drive. I tried out most of its competition -- Hyundai beat them all. If it was a rear wheel drive it would be a world class car. If and when Hyundai assembles a rear wheel drive in the Montgomery, Alabama factory -- I will trade in my front wheel drive Sonata. Best buy on the market. Price was reasonable.

  Solid Value - 2007 Hyundai Sonata
  By Rebel Engineer - July 26 - 4:46 am

  I was shopping for a replacement for a 98 Accord EX V6 and read Edmunds review of the Sonata shootout with the Accord and Camry, so decided to check this out. I had been aware of Hyundais dismal reviews for earlier models and was very surprised after a drive in the Sonata. The handling of the car is composed and feels secure for family driving (I drive an 03 Infiniti G35 coupe, so I cant call it sporty), power is more than adequate (better than the Honda), and quietness of ride at 75 mph is better than the mentioned Accord or Infiniti. Fit and finish easily match the Accord. MPG thus far (with 3,000 miles): 20 city, 27 highway. Thus far Im very impressed with the Sonata SE.

  My first Hyundai - 2007 Hyundai Sonata
  By volkswaggin - July 2 - 8:50 am

  After recommending a 2006 Sonata to my father-in-law last year, he purchased a GLS instead of a Civic or Accord. He loves his Sonata and averages 23 mpg in town. I just traded my 2004 Envoy SLT XL for a new 2007 Sonata Limited with XM. It rides very smooth, is very quiet, and gets very good gas mileage. I really got a super deal from Hyundai of Decatur. I paid less than $19,000 for my 2007 Sonata Limited! I got over $5000 off of the sticker and they are one of the easiest dealers that I have ever dealt with.

  I Love my Sonata - 2007 Hyundai Sonata
  By Joe G - June 21 - 9:06 pm

  Let me start by saying that I researched and test drove about every car under $23K prior to picking the Sonata. In doing my research I made price the least important so I could be sure that I got the car I wanted without price being the driving force for my decision. I needed a car that I could put 3 kids in sometimes but got good gas mileage since I travel a lot. I found that the Sonata had more interior room in every aspect and trunk space than any other car in its class and got comparable mpg. The build quality is easily equal to that of its Japanese rivals. I was going to buy the V6 but opted for the 4 banger. It has tons of torque and adequate acceleration. Best car Ive ever had.

  Awesome Sedan - 2007 Hyundai Sonata
  By James - May 24 - 9:13 pm

  This is an outstanding car for the money. I love the styling and performance let alone the build quality of this vehicle. Hyundai has really stepped up to the plate with offering that rival Toyota and Hyundai. As a matter of fact, the Hyundai Initial Quality ranking by JD Powers came in third to porsche and Lexus. Toyota and Honda lagged behind Hyundai. With the V-6 you will really get a kick out of driving and for all of those sport sedan enthusiast, this Sonata comes with the triptronic shifter, so that you can drive it like it was a manual. This vehicle also beat out the Camy and Accord in the family sedan shootout a few months ago.

  Best Ive owned - 2007 Hyundai Sonata
  By J Milano - May 3 - 4:26 am

  My father owns a Mercedes and owned Lincolns before that; but hes been so impressed by my Hyundai that hes going to get the Sonata. Hes tired of his Mercedes being in the shop and the standard luxury features in the Sonata Ltd can hold its own with any luxury car and it has been just as reliable as my brothers Hondas and Acura. Im sold on the brand.
