An auxiliary audio jack has been added to the standard features list, while the Limited trim level adds two-level heated front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control and an optional navigation system.

  • WOW! - 2009 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I brought a beautiful new 1999 Cadillac DeVille, color Shale/ beige int. traded it for a new 2005 Chrysler 300 base. silver/grey boring plastic everywhere Int. rear wheel drive and found out too late, that the base models were lacking major safety features like anti- lock brakes etc. wanted out. I had a vision of my Caddy in a Sonata. Camel/butterscotch leather int. with wood grain, lacking nothing in options including Navagtion completely loaded! I was upside down in my Chrysler trade by $9,000 because of over mileage at 63,000. The nine thousand was incorporated in my new payments. The deal $32,000 after rebates. No regrets!!! WOW! this (Lexus) car is way under priced! GET ONE!

    Preferred the Sonata over the Accord, Camry, Altima & Malibu - the much lower price was icing on the cake. Ride is silky smooth, and exceptionally quiet. The new interior is fantastic beats all the competitors. Great car!!!

  • The best buy you can make - 2009 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I have purchased my Hyundai Sonata V6 about three years ago. I got it with 46K miles on and today it has about 178k miles on it. I have never had an issue with this car. My only issue was that my starter died out of nowhere and it was a pain getting it fixed but other than a new starter, lots and lots of oil changes, tires, and fluid changes. I have never had an issue with this car. It is still a very quiet ride. I feel like this was a deal of the century. Anyways, my next car, I plan to purchase a Hyundai sonata again.

  • Great car Low price - 2009 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I have only owned this car two days and have driven a little over 600 miles. It is not only fun to drive, but very comfortable. I had no idea Hyundai had improved their cars this much. I have a Cadillac Seville in the garage and this car is on a comparable level as the Caddy and at a fraction of the price.

  • My 09 Sonata - 2009 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I picked this up at the dealership where I work. After talking to the techs, they all told me how well they ran and how reliable they were. I am seeing my vehicle get on average 24-26 miles to the gallon. I love my vehicle and I am glad I purchased it.

  • Real Worth for your hard-earned money - 2009 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I had shortlisted the Mercedes C300 Sport, Acura TSX 09 and Infiniti G35 for my new car purchase. I never ever thought of going for a Hyundai. I just wanted to test-drive a Sonata and I was quite pleasantly surprised with the ride quality, interiors etc. I paid close to 18,900 for my 09 Sonata and after taxes etc, it was still 12K cheaper than TSX 09 after tax. For my day-to-day office commute and occasional long drive, this car was ideal. In the extra money I saved, I could make my house more comfortable, than showing off with a piece of machinery I use maybe an hour every day. The rated mileage is 21/31 city/highway. But I got 35 mpg on highway on my recent trip and get 25 mpg in city.

  • Best Deal Out There In Midsize Lux Sedan - 2009 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    Wow, just got this car home today! Its the V6 Limited model with navigation, which was the only option. The Limited model is fully loaded with just about every feature you could want. There was a $1,000 rebate on the car which was icing on the cake, because its already under priced in my opinion for what Hyundai is giving you. I havent owned the car long enough to discuss reliability, but Hyundai has come a long way in the past 25 years and Im sure it will last me a long time with regular maintenance. What an amazing vehicle! Perfect interior ergonomics, extremely quiet even at 80 MPH, very fuel efficient for a V6, and very fun to drive! The 2009 Sonata refresh is a home run!

  • Great Value...Great Ride - 2009 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    Just purchased vehicle a week ago and already have over 500 miles on it. Drives great...ride is smooth and acceleration is more than adequate..shifting is very smooth. Took it on trip and it gave me 27.5 mpg driving between 75 - 80 mph. Not bad! Avg mpg in the city 20 - 22 mpg. I traded my gas guzzling 06 Nissan Titan Crew Cab and dont regret it. I dont miss the power and the ride is much more comfortable. The high safety rating is a plus for my 1 yr old son :) I would recommend this car or any Hyundai to anyone. My wife drives a 08 Santa Fe and we are also very satisfied with both our vehicles.
